DO YOU THINK YOU'RE HERE BY CHANCE OF THE UNIVERSE? Prologue to the book "The Silent Universe"

“Listen within yourself and look into the Infinity of Space and Time. There you hear the song of the Stars, the voice of the Numbers, the harmony of the Spheres.”

Do you think you're here because of the universe's whimsical randomness? The Question Born in My Grandmother's Kitchen

This reflection, dear reader, is from the book "The Silent Universe," and it was born from a question. A question that, for me, didn't arise in the stillness of the night or under a starry sky, but rather at ten years old, in the kitchen, while waiting for my grandmother to finish preparing breakfast.

One of my younger uncles was getting married. The news, instead of joy, projected an image in my mind, and then it became a strange film. It gave me a feeling that, to free myself from it, I put into words. So I turned to my grandmother and asked:

"What's the point of life? You're born, you live your childhood, you grow up, you get married, you have children, you grow old, and you die... It's absurd."

My grandmother, with all her wisdom, couldn't answer. No one could at that moment.

That question, posed in the innocence of childhood, became the compass of a lifelong quest. I searched for answers everywhere. I sought out gurus and found none. I searched mysticism and found nothing convincing. I moved from religions to science and then plumbed the depths of speculation.

At each stop, I found a piece of the puzzle, but none of it fit quite right. I felt the hope in religions, which promised heaven or hell as reward or punishment for our actions. I felt the confusion of the world of speculation, which spoke of different options, such as dimensions, reincarnations, or transmutations of the soul. And I felt the implacable coldness of science, whose verdict seemed definitive: death is our end, and we will be dissolved into nothingness.

Finally, after so much searching, I finally saw a light. A light that didn't come from a single source, but from an unexpected point of convergence, the place where science and philosophy, after centuries of walking separately, seemed to meet.

I discovered that theology had been wrong to distance itself from philosophy. And that, at that meeting point, the voices of Baruch Spinoza, Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Hegel, and modern neuroscience were beginning to weave an answer. An answer that wasn't easy consolation or dogmatic truth. It was something much more... disturbing, daring, and delightful.

This reflection is a chronicle of that response. It is a map of that point of convergence.

Together, we will try to pull at a "black thread," a hidden connection that unites the cold equation of physics with the warm fire of our consciousness. We will discover that the universe is not the indifferent scene we feared, but a creative process in full swing. And that we, far from being an absurd accident, are the most momentous event since the Big Bang.

This reflection doesn't aim for blind faith, but rather for a rational spirituality. It won't ask you to ignore science, but rather to see it as the first act of a much larger and more overwhelming story.

The question I asked my grandmother in the kitchen remains the same. But the answer I found has changed my life. And I sincerely hope it can change yours, too.

It is time for us to become aware that the matter from which the universe was formed is the same matter from which human beings were formed, the same matter from which your body was formed, which allows you to read this reflection, it is as if we were the "Children of the Universe" or perhaps we are the consciousness of the universe.

Human beings are a cornerstone of the ongoing creation of the universe, whose mission is to achieve global consciousness. This is being achieved thanks to the Digital Age, as most of the planet is interconnected, for the first time in its history. We are interconnected!

Nine billion years ago, the atoms that now make up your brain were not only dissociated, but scattered across the light years of an interstellar cloud—were we cosmic dust?

The cloud condensed and generated stars and their worlds, and so, eventually, the atoms of your future brain found themselves on a newborn planet, the third from a juvenile Sun...the planet you live on.

The primordial ocean evolved. Life itself evolved, becoming ever more complex. And it all happened on its own, in the chiaroscuro of time and before there was intelligence or consciousness.

🌏 Planets come from dust

🧬 The life of non-life

🧠 Brains made of strands of biological cables.

fter so many billions of years, you are here, representing an entire evolutionary process that allows you to read and understand these lines.

Our organic brains and bodies may have evolved to their full potential, but our consciousness is still evolving .

We are on the verge of a "mind explosion"—not unlike the Big Bang—in which human consciousness will inherit the universe, because perhaps our Mission is to continue the second phase of the Creation of the universe from our microenvironment.

What's next? The Total Consciousness of the Planet, and with it the next evolutionary phase of Human Beings. Fortunately, it seems that many of us will witness this Change, a change that, far from being catastrophic, will put us on the right path to fulfill our Mission as a Species... Human.

In transcendental mathematics, it is proven algebraically that zero multiplied by infinity equals One.

Zero, in the order of absolute ideas, means the indeterminate Being.

The Infinite, the Eternal, in the language of the temples are symbolized by a circle or by a snake biting its tail, which means the Infinite, moving itself.

And, from the moment the Infinite is determined, all the numbers it contains in its unity are produced, and it governs them in perfect harmony. Such is the transcendent meaning of the first problem of Pythagorean theogony.

Do you think you're here because of the whimsical randomness of the universe?

📍 To the three fundamental questions of life—where do you come from? What are you doing here? Where are you going?—the relevant question, and the one over which you have some control, is the third, because it's where you can exercise some of your free will: Where are you going? Where do you want to be?

📍 It's pretty clear that the past is history, which you can't fix, but it's important to note that what we can solve is the future through the actions of the present: "The Future is paved with the actions of the Present."

📍 With the actions of the Present, you will be Creating your Future, so your most important assets in your life are Imagination and Creativity, complemented by continuous learning.
