Cosmology 102a
Monadic/Holographic Paradigm
Following the suggestion of L. Susskind, we attempt a monadic cosmology based on holographic principles.
In this case the monads will be you and me and all the other spiritual beings. We are the microcosms. The cosmos is our mutual projection and self-reflection. The entire cosmos is the God monad, or Gonad, just to ensure that we don't take ourselves too seriously. Aptly enough, we are the seedlings of the gonad. As our world approaches the critical information density, there ensues an "information implosion" in analogy to the formation of a black hole. Thusly does the gonad recycle itself through us monads into a new gonad that includes a 'new' cosmos.
Contrary to the speculations of L. Smolin and others, there is only one recycled cosmos. This is based in part on Leibniz' Identity of Indiscernibles. The world history exhausts the possible 'atoms' of experience. The combinatorial possibilities do not infringe upon this limit. These could be included in the imaginal realm in any case. Each history cycle is a metaphysical superposition of all the cycles. The world-line of each monad represents one such cycle.
The gonad exists on our information horizon that we approach in the eschaton, a la Tipler, with our consciousness' becoming telepathically linked. Collectively speaking we only go around once. These observations need be construed only to limit redundancy not creativity to which there is no limit.
Other worlds exist only in the experientially orthogonal spaces to our own, and these are what compose our imaginal and unconscious realms to a large extent. These worlds are tightly interwoven into one single entity. There can be no other entirety. There can be no island universes by the sheer logic of relations. There has ever been only one eschaton and that is the one we are about to experience. But each experience is still completely new. The multidimensionality of time will come into play and that will explain the seeming paradoxes.
