EVERYTHING contains eachof the Many-Worlds of Quantum Theory.DavidDeutsch has a web site on parallel universes and ManyWorlds.Many-Worlds may be representable bySurreal Numbers, and may be equivalent toBohm Quantum Theory and to some OtherQuantum Theories.
The D4-D5-E6-E7-E8 VoDou physicsmodel is a TOE that naturallyproduces Many-Worlds Quantum Theory using structures similar to theI Ching and the TaiHsaun Ching that can be used to try to understand Fate.Many-World HyperDiamond Checkerboards may beequivalent to Cellular Automata and Wei Qi,and they are connected to QuantumConsciousness.

(These structures are motivated by Saul-PaulSirag's ideas about Weyl groups, A-D-Eseries, and E7.)
According to the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8 VoDouphysics model, at our energy level each World of the Many-Worldshas a 4-dimensional lattice Spacetime with MacDowell-MansouriGravity, a Higgs Mechanism, and a Complex Propagator Phase;
a 4-dimensional lattice Internal Symmetry Space with 8 Color ForceGluons, 3 Weak Force Bosons, and a Photon that live on the links ofthe lattice Spacetime; and
3 generations of 8 Fermion Particles and 8 Fermion AntiParticlesthat live on the vertices of the lattice Spacetime, with the 3generations corresponding, in the continuum approximation, toE6, E7, and E8. The D4-D5-E6-E7-E8VoDou physics model describes Musaka/GaneshaElementary Fermions, which are the Virtual Sea and Valence Fermionsof Gaja/Ganesha Compton Radius VortexPhysical Elementary Fermions.
All the structures of the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8 VoDou physics model andthe HyperDiamond Feynman Checkerboardmodel have continuous approximations based on 3x3Anti-Hermitian Octonion Matrices.

The idea of an overallgeometric structure of MacroSpace came from GregEgan's novel Diaspora(Harper-Collins 1998), which contains a lot of other interestingideas, including information-based lifeforms, Truth Mines of mathematical structures, and lifeforms based on Wang Tilings.
and
of the Conformal Group ofN-dimensional spacetime, which is bilholomorphic to the HermitianSymmetric Space
The D4-D5-E6-E7-E8 VoDou physicsmodel is fundamentally based on the Conformalstructure of Lie Sphere Geometry. It not only contains aConformal Physical Spacetime
but also is based on the OctonionicConformal structures
For example, according to the MayaIndians:
"time... [is] a holographic interference pattern ... Thispattern of time is then projected ...[onto]... the newmoment, creating the apparent illusion of linear sequential time. ...We unfold our reality by the decisions we make. ... There existalternate versions of reality corresponding to the decision paths nottaken and ... we can ... connect with these alternate realities inways that can benefit us."
As another example, consider the Big Bang * that was the origin ofeverything (all the stuff) that we see in our Universe, including youand me:
You Stuff Me\ | /\ | /\ | /\ | /\|/*
Not only are You Correlated with Me due to our common origin inthe * Big Bang, both of us are Correlated with everything else, thatis, all the Stuff in our Universe.
According to RichardThompson's Vedic Cosmography and Astronomy ( a contemporaryexposition of ideas of the Vedas, based onintermediate expository material such as theBrahma-samhita ):
".... the Vedic concept of space begins with a statement of Krishna's unified nature, rather than with the geometric axioms defining three-dimensional space. ... the entire universe, which is within Krishna, is fully present within every atom of the universe. [ compare Indra's Net and the self-referential reflexivity of the octonions ] Such a state of affairs cannot be visualized in three-dimensional terms, and indeed, it is not possible within three-dimensional space. ... the Vedic idea of space is that more things can be close to one another than is possible in three-dimensional space. ... higher dimensional spaces of mathematics also allow more things to be close to one another than is possible in three-dimensional space ...
[At the Highest Level of Simplex Physics], Krishna ... has full access to every location simultaneously. ...
[At the Middle Level of Correlations], ... access between locations is more restricted than it is for Krishna,
but less restricted than it is for ... three-dimensional space ... [of the Lowest Level of Nearest Neighbors]"
Compare ElAleph (1945), by Jorge Luis Borges:
"... the thirtieth of April was her birthday ... On the burning February morning Beatriz Viterbo died ... From that time on, I never let a thirtieth of April go by without a visit to her house ... on Garay Street ... Carlos Argentino Daneri, her first cousin ... remarked that for a man ... with telephones, telegraphs, phonographs, wireless sets, motion-picture screens, slide projectors, glossaries, timetables, handbooks, bulletins ... actual travel was superfluous. Our twentieth century had inverted the story of Mohammed and the mountain; nowadays, the mountain came to the modern Mohammed. ... I ... asked him why he didn't write ... his ideas ... down. ... he answered that he had already done so -- that these ideas ... had found their place in the ... Prologue Canto of the poem on which he had been working for many years now, alone, without publicity, with fanfare, supported only by those twin staffs universally known as work and solitude. ... Daneri said ... that to finish them poem he could not get along without the house because down in the cellar there was an Aleph. ... "It's mine -- mine. I discovered it when I was a child, all by myself. The cellar stairway is so steep that my aunt and uncle forbade my using it, but I'd heard someone say there was a world down there. I found out later they meant an old-fashioned globe of the world, but at the time I thought they were referring to the world itself. One day when no one was home I started down in secret, but I stumbled and fell. When I opened my eyes, I saw the Aleph. ... the ... place ... where all places are -- seen from every angle, each standing clear, without any confusion or blending. I kept the discovery to myself and went back every chance I got ..." ...... The Aleph's diameter was probably little more than an inch, but all space was there, actual and undiminished. Each thing ( a mirror's face, let us say ) was infinite things, since I distinctly saw it from every angle of the universe. I saw the teeming sea; I saw daybreak and nightfall; I saw the multitudes of America; I saw a silvery cobweb in the center of a black pyramid; ... I saw, close up, unending eyes watching themselves in me as in a mirror; I saw all the mirrors on earth and none of them reflected me; ... I saw in the drawer of a writing table (and the handwriting made me tremble) unbelievable, obscene, detailed letters, which Beatriz had written to Carlos Argentino; ... I saw the circulation of my own dark blood; I saw the coupling of love and the modification of death; I saw the Aleph from every point and angle, and in the Aleph I saw the earth and in the earth the Aleph and in the Aleph the earth; I saw my own face and my own bowels; I saw your face; and I felt dizzy and wept, for my eyes had seen that secret and conjectured object whose name is common to all men but which no man has looked upon -- the unimaginable universe. ...
... As is well known, the Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Its use for the strange sphere in my story may not be accidental. For the Kabbala, the letter stands for the En Soph, the pure and boundless godhead; it is also said that it takes the shape of a man pointing to both heaven and earth, in order to show that the lower world is the map and mirror of the higher; for Cantor's Mengenlehre, it is the symbol of transfinite numbers, of which any part is as great as the whole. ...
... Around 1867, Captain Burton held the post of British Consul in Brazil. ... a manuscript of Burton's ... dealing with the mirror which the Oriental world attributes to Iskander Zu al-Karnayn, or Alexander Bicornis of Macedonia. In its crystal the whole world was reflected . Burton mentions other similar devices -- the sevenfold cup of Kai Kosru; the mirror that Tariq ibn-Ziyad found in a tower (Thousand and One Nights, 272); the mirror that Lucian of Samosata examined on the moon (True History, I, 26); the mirrorlike spear that the first book of Capella's Satyricon attributes; Merlin's universal mirror, which was "round and hollow... and seem'd a world of glas" (The Faerie Queene, III, 2, 19) [ also, Indra's Net and the Octagonal Mirror Room built by Fa Tsang for Empress Wu ] -- and adds this curious statement: "... The Faithful who gather at the mosque of Amr, in Cairo, are acquainted with the fact that the entire universe lies inside one of the stone pillars that ring its central court ... The mosque dates from the seventh century; the pillars come from other temples of pre-Islamic religions ..."
... Does this Aleph exist in the heart of a stone? Did I see it there in the cellar when I saw all things, and have I now forgotten it? Our minds are porous and forgetfulness seeps in; I myself am distorting and losing, under the wearing away of the years, the face of Beatriz.".
At the Middle Level of Correlations and at the HighestLevel of Simplex Physics,
the interactions are generalizations of CellularAutomata. The resulting
Masters such as LI Hongzhi can perceivemany spaces beyond the physical universe perceived by most humans,such as the Bardos. Perhaps Dolphinscan perceive and interact with such spaces.
Quantum Communication ofINFORMATION among the Many Worlds ofquantum particle physics, crudelyrepresented above as paths, such as the red path and the green path,maybe possible.
In addition to the Quantum Many-Worlds branching that occurswithin a particular physical universe such as ours, a physicaluniverse can give birth to new physical universes, a processdescribed by Gott and Li: As the universe expands, there may be aquantum fluctuation that repeats the process by creatinga new cosmological Expanding Insanton thus giving birth to newuniverses (indicated by blue and yellow) branching off from theparent (red) universe:
In Katsuhiro Otomo's movie Akira,Akira, Tetsuo, and their friends create a new universe.
What we call Cosmology is the study of theevolution of our physical (blue) universe from the present time backto (almost) the time of its branching off from its predecessor (red)universe.
As our (red) predecessor universe itself is a branch of itspredecessor, and so on, what humans regard as our physical universeis only a small reconstructed branch of a branch of a branch ... ,not to mention all the other Quantum Many-Worlds branches within eachuniverse.
hus, despite its pretentious name, Cosmologyis really NOT an all-encompassing theory.
Its limitations indicate the limitations of humancapabilities.
However, the way our physical (blue) universe has developed,with
seems to have been anticipated by earlierhuman cultures:
The ancient Chinese hermit Ryu played his iron flute in the reverse direction to create the universe, and the non-zero cosmological term in the inflationary phase is mathematically equivalent to a negative pressure in the cosmic vacuum, and negative pressure is what you need to play a flute backwards. (See "The World is Sound: Nada Brahma" by Joachim-Ernst Berendt, Destiny (1987, 1991), p. 170) (Compare the Chinese Immortal flautist Han Xiang.)
The vacuum(Qi) is active, so that there is no such thing asnothingness. The basic structure of Qi might be represented by thestate of a Wei Qi board with stones,while the pattern-principles (Li) by which the next Wei Qi move isdetermined might be represented by the IChing, as though the I Ching shows how to move in Wei Qi. Thismay be related to the HyperDiamond FeynmanCheckerboard picture of the D4-D5-E6-E7 physics model, and to aconnection between Randomness and Consciousness.
Particles that we observe, such as Electrons, Neutrinos, Protons,and Pions, have Compton Radius Vortexstructures related to a hydrodynamic interpretation of BohmQuantm Theory.
The action of the vacuum (Qi) is in accord with the science ofpattern-principles (Li), as in the physics of the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8VoDou physics model, in which events are described by Cramer'stransaction theory. The probability of any event of interactionis a transaction between an amplitude from the past, looking like onehelix, corresponding to Yang, and an amplitude from the future, amirror-image helix, corresponding to Yin.

Human Intelligent Life is mostly Land-based with Air-Oxygen usedfor most of its Energy, but Earth's Oceans contain Sea-basedDolphin (and perhaps other) Intelligent Life.
On a larger scale, the whole PlanetEarth might be regarded as Intelligent, with Sub-Intelligencesrelated to Auroras, Air-BasedStorms, the Ocean itself; andLand-based Volcanoes and Earthquakes.
On still larger scales, our Sun and ourSolar System, and ourGalaxy, and our Universe itselfmight be regarded as Material-Based Life Forms (asmight such systems not our own).
Each of these Scales of Life has its own TimeCycle, all of which are related to each other.
Some Antarcticmeteorites, possibly fromMars, contain evidenceof fossil microorganisms.
Comets containorganic molecules, and may, astheorized by Hoyle and Wickramasinghe, contain organisms ormolecular precursors of life, so that it life could be seededthroughout the universe by comets entering the atmospheres of fertileplanets.
Secker, Wesson,and Lepock have shown that:
1. some bacteria and viruses produced within a stellar system while the star was like our sun might become embedded in carbonaceous dust grains in space in the stellar system;2. when the star reached the end of its life, and expanded to a red giant,its radiation pressure could send the dust grain oorganismsinto interstellar space, and on to other systems; and
3. the carbon of the dust grains could protect the organisms from UV radiation so that they could survive the trip.
Since the Sun is only about 5 billion years old in a 15 billionyear old universe, the Secker-Wesson-Lepock process could have takenplace in older stellar systems, thus seeding our Solar system, sothat
This material type of life,Massive Spacelike Beings, is only the FIRST OF THREETYPES described in the BARDOs. Ittravels in material vehicles, such as dust grains or Star Trek typespaceships.
Massive Spacelike Human Beings have Human Brains with QuantumConsciousness and within which TubulinElectrons may be able to tune into Informationfrom the Big Bang. Since pairs of TubulinElectrons are (in my model)connected by lightcone Graviphotons, youcould regard Human Thought as a Massless Lightcone Graviphotonphenomenon, but since the Human Brain confines the Tubulin Electronsto its small volume, it seems to me that from the Human point of view(as opposed to a larger-scale point of view),the Electrons are more prominent than the Graviphotons.
Since massless light-cone particles, such as photons, liveon the boundaries of light-cones, they do not experience lineartime like massive material particles.
They see which part of their world-line is at what time by thevalue of its quantum U(1) phase, so that a world line look like ahelix.
Andrew Gray's HistorySelection formulation of Many-Worlds Quantum Theory is based onthe point of view of a Massless Lightconelife form that perceives the whole of its space-time world line.It may allow violation of causality at the macroscopic level, aneffect that might be used to build a time machine that can see intothe future, or perhaps modify the future.
In Many-Worlds Quantum Theory, thevacuum (Qi) is active, so that there is no such thing asnothingness.
The action of the vacuum (Qi) is in accord with the science ofpattern-principles (Li), as in the physics of the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8VoDou physics model, in which events are described by Cramer'stransaction theory.
The probability of any event of interaction is a transactionbetween an amplitude from the past, looking like one helix,corresonding to Yang, and an amplitude from the future, amirror-image helix, corresponding to Yin.
The resulting Yin-Yanginteractions produce the physics of the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8VoDou physics model and look like Double Helix structures, thesame structure we material beings use to transmit geneticinformation.
Genetic codes are related to the IChing.
If Lightcone Beings travel or communicate by laser-beam, we couldinteract with them by using receiving/transmitting antennae to"converse" with the laser-beam information.
Unlike Star Trek transporters and holodecks, an EXACTcopy of a quantum state (such as a human with a mind) CANNOT bereplicated on a holodeck or at the end of a transporter.
If such laser-based life forms exist, do they use short-wave(gamma-ray) lasers and gravitational focussing by stars? If so, thatwould produce a galaxy-wide network
of gamma-ray beams, with the transmissions that use our Sun as agravitational lens producing the Mayan vision of "thegalaxy as a living organism and light as the connective tissue",a vision like a galactic-scale version of the noosphere of PierreTeilhard de Chardin.
Perhaps some of the Gamma Ray Burstsobserved by Earth-orbiting satellites might be due to such CETItransmissions.
If some of the Gamma Ray Bursts are atcosmological distances,they may be CETImessages from Life in our Universe near the time of its BigBang. Such Life could be of any of the ThreeTypes of Life, or a combination of them.
Massive Spacelike Human Beings haveHuman Brains with Quantum Consciousnessand within which Tubulin Electronsmay be able to tune into Information from theBig Bang. Further, Human Consciousness seemsto have a parallel in a Consciousnessof our Universe based on Tuned-Electrons, pairs of which areconnected by lightcone Graviphotons, youcould regard Human Thought as having some aspects of a MasslessLightcone Graviphoton phenomenon. Since our Universe, unlike theHuman Brain, does not confine theTuned-Electrons to a small volume, it seems to me that from point ofview of our Universe, the Graviphotons are more prominent than theElectrons, and the Consciousness ofour Universe based on Tuned-Electrons can be regarded as aMassless Lightcone Consciousness.
This type of life can travel in the MACROSPACE of the ManyWorlds,somewhat as does the Infinite Improbability Drive of the HitchHiker'sGuide to the Galaxy. ManyWorlds Abstract Beings interact with ourEarthly world by affecting structures whose macroscopic behavior canbe influenced by microscopic (quantum-uncertainty-level) changes. Thetime-scale of such effectivelychaotic processes varies from millions of years for orbits ofplanets and comets, to hours forstorms, to, for thebrain's state of mind, frequencies such as1 to 30 Hz for Delta, Theta, Alpha, and Beta States, which aresimilar to the frequency range of Schumannresonances, indicating that the human brain has evolved to be "intune" with the resonant frequencies of planet Earth.
Since ManyWorlds Abstract beings can interact with differentWorlds of the ManyWorlds, they can interact with and alter the theMany Fates that we perceive to be ourPossible Futures.
Such state of mind interactions could explain ParapsychologicalPhenomena such as found by the PrincetonEngineering Anomalies Research, the CognitiveSciences Laboratory (STARGATE), and such as described byJack Sarfatti, BrianJosephson, and JessicaUtts.
Since the ManyWorlds Abstract Beings are based on INFORMATION,and interesting codes are based on the 24-dimensionalLeech lattice, which in turn is related to the 24-dimensionalChevalley subalgebra of the 27-dimensionalJordan algebra J3(O).
The Leech lattice is currently being studied by GeoffreyDixon, and is related to the extended Golay code G24 of ClassicalInformation Theory.
Calderbank,Rains, Shor, and Sloane have shown that whereas many usefulClassical error-correcting codes are binary over the fieldGF(2), many error-correcting codes of QuantumInformation Theory are quaternary over the fieldGF(4).
As Dixon hasnoted, GF(4) is related to quaternions as GF(2)is to complex numbers and GF(8) is to octonions.
The Leech lattice structure may underlie both the Classical andthe Quantum useful error-correcting codes.
The Leech lattice is also related to the Monsterfinite simple group, a group of order
or about 8 x 10^53. The Monster is naturally represented on aspace of 196,884 dimensions, which can be broken down into 196,560 +300 + 24. Since 300 = 25x24/2 is the symmetric square of 24, andsince the Leech lattice discrete nearest-neighbor sphere has 196,560points, and since IF the 196,560 points form a group, just as the 240of an E8 lattice form unit octonions and as the 24 of a D4 latticeform unit quaternions then it should be possible to form the 196,560dimensional space of the group algebra of the Leech latticenearest-neighbor group, and then add the 300-dim space of symmetricsquared Leech lattice, and then add the 24-dim space of the Leechlattice itself, to get the 196,884-dim representation space of theMonster. By going down to the underlying 24-dim Leech lattice space,it should be possible to represent the Monster on the 24-dim space ofthe Leech lattice.
Since I don't have a 24-dim or 196,560-dim or 196,884-dim picture,here is a Penrose tiling that is alow-dimensional slice thereof, and related structures of D4-D5-E6-E7-E8root vectors:
AsGreg Egan described in his novelDiaspora, life based on Wang Tilings canform Universal Computers, and the GeneticCode of abstract Information-based life can be based on sequences ofbinary 6-bit segments, like the 2^6 = 64 hexagrams of the ICHING.
are all just different representations of thesame fundamental structure:
This fundamental structure is not only shared by Golaycodes and Leech lattice but also by Penrosetilings and musical sequences.
At each level of ConformalStructure of the D4-D5-E6-E7-E8 VoDouphysics model, PhysicalWavelets provide a connectionbetween the World of Physics and theWorld of Information.
An Information sequencethat is historically interesting and possibly fundamental is theTorah Sequence, whose study involved boththe Kabbala and Archetypesof the human mind.
The INTERNET is the most effective wayever devised for IDEAS to be communicated among humans.
You might even regard IDEAS aslife forms living on a human-internet substrate.
To implement IDEASon a material level, humans must advance their Technologies,such as

| Atomic Clusters |Cells and Chips | QiField | DNA and Genetic Code|
