Everything is a Torus

Everything is a torus.  Galaxies, universes, black holes, stars, atoms, planets, weather patters.  All toruses.  It's the shape of things.  The pattern of things.  the direction things move and flow.

Even time and our lives flow like a torus.  You can imagine a possible universe and reality, as a wheel spinning vertically.  Our lives are a fixed point and as the wheel passes that point, we experience the life being related through the wheel, what is turning towards us is the future and what then passes us and moves away from us is the past.  Now imagine all possible realities, each as a separate wheel, however, our consciousness/ our reality, our here and now, is still fixed It is the point on which all possible realities exist as one point.  At the one time that all of the possibilities exist at the exact same here and now.  It is a torus shaped object; here and now is at the center and the future and past are spinning discs radiating in all directions around us on a plane. 

The farther away in the future you look (the farther ahead on any of the reality discs, or all together as a torus) you see the future possibilities are vastly different as two wheels on the opposite sides of the torus are farther apart.  10 years ahead on your torus could be represented as a large ring.  So many different things could happen.  Who knows what exactly you will be doing at any "here and now" in 10 years.  You may be sitting in a chair eating breakfast on a porch as it lightly rains with your dog sleeping near by at your house in Nashville.  Or you might be driving to work in a city, flipping your turn signal waiting for a traffic light to change in Santa Fe.  So many things could happen to steer you on a varying path.  Eventually, though, as that point that was 10 years away gets closer, the ring on the torus that represents the possible different "here and now" of that exact moment in time gets smaller.  Imagine that we looked at the ring on the torus that represents 10 minutes into our future.  Chances are that the ring is pretty small in that you could be only doing things within a certain radius of where you stand now. While the possibilities are still infinite as to where EXACTLY you could be, it is a smaller set of options than the ring that represents 10 years form now.

So, as the wheels of reality spin through your existence, time passes.  As time passes large rings on the surface of the torus move closer to you and become smaller, representing a smaller number of possible future outcomes.  As they get closer and closer to present time, they get smaller and smaller until finally they reach you, here and now and there is only one option because it is exactly what is happening right now.  Only one option. 

As time passes behind you who knows what happens to all of the possible realities.  They diverge again.  If you were to look at where you are here and now, there are any number of possible pasts that could have brought you to this exact point.  As time goes on, the variety of pasts possible only grows. 10 seconds ago I was typing and that makes sense because I am still typing now.  10 years ago I could have been doing anything and still end up here typing.  However, we have only experienced one here and now and the string of those moments is being woven into a linear line right down the middle of the torus.  Shooting out from the center, like a galaxy or a black hole have energy beams shooting out of their cores in opposite directing through the center hole of the toruses.

I don't buy it anymore when people say that there are different parallel universes all HAPPENING.  Quantum physics says that it is true, but i just feel that impossible.  I feel like consciousness is not that abundant to be having universes so close making slightly different decisions and so similar to one another.  It means that no one is unique and nothing is unique and everything is happening infinite other times elsewhere.  No.  I don't even believe that the universe is never ending and therefore, based on mathematics, there must be an infinite amount of universes with an infinite amount of arrangements of atoms that somewhere there is another me typing this exact same thing, only in all italics.  No.


One existence per consciousness.  Torus shaped, just like everything else in existence.  Time moves through us from a myriad of possible futures, narrowing into one exact here and now, and we live in the here and now always.  Our possible pasts moving away form us and our futures moving towards us.  We are just the needle on a torus shaped record.
