We live in a mysterious universe. While science has given us some of the answers to life’s biggest questions, nobody has a clue how all matter, energy, space and time came into existence. The good thing about unanswered questions is that it opens up the door for interesting discussion. Here are 5 mind-blowing alternative theories about the universe!
Everyone knows about the Big Bang theory. Without going into details about this theory, and remembering that now it is even taught in schools, let’s mention an alternative theory that attempts to explain the origin of our universe from a different perspective.
Proponents of this theory follow a belief that a universe parallel to our own exists, and occasionally these two “sister” universes intersect. The amount of energy released during this intersection causes enormous disturbances of space, resulting in appearance of particles, which form gaseous nebulae, galaxies, stars and other celestial bodies.
After the collision, the universes start moving in opposite directions, but the more they diverge, the more they are attracted to one another, which is quite plausible. Gradually, they begin to converge again, and by that time no stars and other objects in the two universes can be found, everything is evenly distributed in accordance with the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Universes collide again and again and the energy from these collisions results in the formation of particles and the process is repeated as one endless cycle.
We all heard about the presence of black holes in space. Generally, their existence can only be speculated about based on perturbation of gravitational fields and deflection of light. But scientists are already talking about the possibility of locating white holes. After all, if the matter is absorbed by a black hole, it must be released elsewhere in the universe, correct?
And in theory, the locations where the matter is released, not absorbed, do exist. While they have not been detected yet, proponents of this theory hope one day to discover white holes in space.
Generally speaking, the possible presence of white holes, if any will ever be discovered, violates several established laws of modern physics. And if a white hole is eventually found, we will have to reassess the foundations of the modern science, and do it very thoroughly in order to explain their existence.
Yes, as it turns out, the film with the same name was created “based on” a very extravagant theory, which states that the whole universe may be a product of a powerful computer program created by some unknown force. Actually, this computer cannot even be imagined by anyone. They could create a plethora of pet universes, vastly outnumbering the real cosmos.
This thought led philosopher Nick Bostrom at the University of Oxford to conclude in 2003 that it makes more sense to bet that we’re delusional silicon-based artificial intelligences in one of these many forgeries, rather than carbon-based organisms in the genuine universe.
This is a very interesting theory which posits that black holes which emit matter to an unknown location, in fact, create new universes that appear faster than mushrooms after rain. Every particle absorbed by a black hole may become a source of origin for a new universe, after the particle charged with enormous energy explodes. It may be similar to the Big Bang only with a lot of explosions.
Each newly-created universe in turn creates new black holes, and those give life to new universes. A recent study published in the scientific journal Nature shows that our entire universe may have been born out of a black hole from another universe. In other words, the Big Bang was really just an extension of a black hole in a different universe. See more about this idea here.
This theory is often used in the science fiction literature. It is based on a constant branching and divergence of realities. For example, if you are trying to decide whether to go shopping or turn on TV, in one reality you may start walking to the store, while in another you may turn on TV. We have two universes, which differ very little from each other, but the further we go, the more profound differences are.
In fact, these variances “branch out” depending on many factors, including the behavior of atoms that move in different directions, and so on. As a result, billions and billions of new realities appear at each given moment, and the farther away they are apart, the stronger the difference between these universes becomes.
Visually, this can be imagined as a fan, with each blade which is infinitely divisible, and each of the sub-components dividing again and so on…

Radhasoami Faith View of Modus Operandi of Creation of Universe
Part – I
There is cosmological evidence for God and the Universe existed before
Big Bang please.
Stephen Hawking writes in The Grand Design, “It is not necessary to
invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.”
Hawking said the Big Bang was merely the consequence of the law of
gravity. In A Brief History of Time, Hawking had suggested that the
idea of God or a divine being was not necessarily incompatible with a
scientific understanding of the Universe.
Although Hawking is very close to Truth yet he is not perfect in his
views while discarding the role of divine being. I consider the role
of eternal gravity uppermost but I strongly differ with Hawking on the
role of divine being. I consider Divine Ordainment is the cause of
Creation of Universe.
Now I give Radhasoami Faith view of Creation Theory. In Sar Bachan
(Poetry) composed by His Holiness Soamiji Maharaj the August Founder
of Radhasoami Faith the details of creation and dissolution has been
described very scientifically. It is written in Jeth Mahina (name of
Hindi moth) in this Holy Book: Only He Himself (Supreme Father)and
none else was there. There issued forth a great current of
spirituality, love and grace (In scientific terminology we may call
this current as gravitational wave). This is called His Mauj (Divine
Ordainment). This was the first manifestation of Supreme Being. This
Divine Ordainment brought into being three regions, viz., Agam, Alakh,
and Satnam of eternal bliss. Then a current emerged with a powerful
sound (this was the first Big Bang). It brought forth the creation of
seven Surats or currents of various shades and colours (in scientific
terminology we may call it electromagnetic waves). Here the true Jaman
or coagulant was given (in scientific terminology this coagulant may
be called as weak nuclear force and strong nuclear force). Surats,
among themselves, brought the creation into being.
These currents descended down further and brought the whole
universe/multi verse into being i.e. black holes, galaxies etc. were
born.
I would like to add further that sound energy and gravitational force
current are non polar entity and electromagnetic force is bi-polar.
Hence spiritual polarization, if occurred, is occurred in the region
of Sat Lok and region below to it only.
Infinite expanse of gravitational force field is the region of dark energy.
In Bible it is written that in the beginning was the Word; the Word
was with God; and the Word was God.
According to Radhasoami Faith “Shabd (Word) is the beginning and end
of all. The three loks (worlds) and the fourth Lok, all have been
created by Shabd.” (Sar Bachan Poetry)
Part-II
Here the true Jaman (coagulant) was given. The spirituality coagulated
as it were, and Surats (spirit entities), among themselves, brought
the creation into being. Thereafter, another Jaman (coagulant) was
given. Regions from Agam Lok (Inaccessible Region) to Sat Lok (True
Region) were created during the first creational process. That
creation is true. That region is eternal. There is no trace of evil
and suffering. This was the creation for many Yugas and ages. Then
there appeared a dark coloured current
That current appeared like a dark coloured stone set in a white one
and was absorbed in the Darshan of True Being. Then there appeared two
Kalas i.e. currents (viz. Niranjan and Jyoti) and they together
evolved the creation of five Tattwas (elements) four Khans (species,
categories of life) and three Gunas (qualities). The three Gunas
(qualities) brought about the expansion and proliferation . They
created Rishis and Munis (sages and holy men), gods and godly human
beings and demons. Egotism then increased much. Niranjan separated
himself from the rest, putting the burden of looking after the
creation on them. Nobody could know of Niranjan. Even the Vedas
referred to Him as Neti Neti (Not this, Not this). They did not get
Darshan (Vision) of Niranjan. They made conjectures. Then how can
anybody have knowledge of Sat Purush (True Being), Source of Niranjan
and all that exists.
Scientifically here Jyoti represent three Fundamental Forces of
Quantum Mechanics i.e. electromagnetic force, weak nuclear force and
strong nuclear force. NIRANJAN is the fourth Fundamental Force i.e.
Gravitation Force. Scientific explanation follows in support of my
views.
Part-III
Einstein struggled and failed to formulate this theory, but it has
already been shown that at high enough energies electromagnetism and
the weak force are the same force known as the electroweak force. It
is theorized that if energies are increased even further and neutrinos
acquire mass, which has now been fully documented, all the known
forces will reduce to the same force thus providing the basis for the
Grand Unified Theory. This high energy level existed only during the
very early expansion of the Universe known as the Planck Epoch which
existed up to 10 to the negative 43rd seconds after the Big Bang where
the four fundamental forces – electromagnetism, weak nuclear force,
strong nuclear force and gravitation – all had the same strength.
After that point the energy level decreased and gravity separated from
the other 3 fundamental forces and with condensation of elementary
particles (quarks, leptons, and gauge bosons) into matter formed the
so-called Standard Model of today’s Universe. (Source: Comments by

It is well known that nothing or very little is known about
gravitational force till today. It is a mysterious force.
