| The views of science
on our universe are dramatically changing, with
profound impact on our ways of thinking and living,
for generations to come. Whenever there is rapid change, there are three kinds of people involved:
Bookmark it and come back from time to time, because there is 'food for thought' here that can last for a lifetime. Enjoy the journey, ![]() Your host Cornel Slenters Engineer, author, educator, management coach and philosopher. |

Big Bang as the origin of universe. (where do we come from?) | ![]() |
Big Bang appeal will
diminish when 'self-organizing principles' are more widely
understood, since they do a better job in answering
fundamental questions. For instance, the question 'where
we come from' is answered more elegantly through the focus
on 'self-organizing principles'.

Speed of light as limit for all things. | ![]() |
Under certain conditions
information can travel faster than speed of light.

2nd law thermodynamics: A closed system will lead to greater disorder (decay). Often extended as a general principle for the universe. | ![]() |
The universe is an open
system, the dynamics of self-organization are omnipresent,
at all levels of observation and all aspects of
observation.

![]() |
Big Bang as energy source. | ![]() |
A shift from 'big bang' to
'dark matter' as the source from which the universe draws
energy. Our universe is merely a ripple on an ocean of
energy.
|

![]() |
What is energy? | ![]() |
Energy originates from
consciousness.
|
|||
![]() |
What is consciousness? | ![]() |
Consciousness arises from
'identity' (self-sufficiency) in a dynamic field of
interactions.
|
|||
![]() |
How does 'identity' arise? | ![]() |
Identity arises in a field
of interactions, with a high Creative-R. (as in our
universe)
|

|
Does our experience count or are we merely the latest 'model' in the process of evolution? | ![]() |
We live in a participative
universe and our thoughts and actions have a profound
impact on the way 'reality' is shaped. Moreover, our
thoughts and actions contribute to the overall
consciousness from which energy arises. Hence we are
participants and creators, as described for instance
through the cycles of the Universe Grand Design.

When we
die, what remains? Studies of NDE's (Near Death Experiences) Studies of reincarnation. Reincarnation accepted as a fact in some science communities. |
![]() |
The cyclic nature of the
universe and the notion of consciousness as the driving
force do make reincarnation a logical outcome. The
acceptance will be slow in coming, yet the logical and
mathematical predictions for it, combined with a growing
base of scientific evidence will bring about fundamental
changes to the sciences and its role in society.

Is there a purpose in life? A question largely left unanswered by the sciences, other than the notion of survival. | ![]() |
Self-organizing principles are not
limited to our physical universe. You and I are here on
earth because our souls have chosen to be here. The lines
between science and spirituality will need new definitions. |

The predictions of
the 21th century new science trends are based on
fifteen years of tracking new developments in science,
psychology and the 'twilight zones' of science.
In order to sort through the mass of data and discover the underlying structures, the LOTA philosophy of science was used. The LOTA philosophy of science is quoted by independent sources as possibly the most intuitive theory of everything available today. It is a methodology that looks at the 'structure of knowledge' (hence independent of time and space) and develops from that an overall architecture as to how the universe might actually function. From verification since 1996 and feedback from many smart people, the confidence level for these predictions is high. |
