Have you ever grappled with a philosophy of life? Wondered where you stand on existential questions such as how did we get here? Has religion or science - or even both - even come close to explaining everything there is?
If so, then The Philosophy of the Universe and the Dimensions of the Multiverse by Aaron Joseph Olivier is a book for you. Olivier attempts to answer these questions incorporating a kind of 5D (where D is dimensions) model. The three dimensions we all know about the physical world are height, width and depth. Time is the fourth. Time, you say? Yes. Throw a Rubik's cube across the floor. You can see its height, width and depth and also its travel. You don't see the time it took to travel across the floor but you do see the distance it travelled, which gives you an indicator of time. It all gets a bit complicated after that but the basic idea is that the fifth dimension attempts to connect the fundamental forces of electromagnetism and gravity so that we can fully understand how the universe works. We won't be able to see that either, just as we can't see time but know it exists. The Large Hadron Collider experiment is investigating this fifth dimension.
Olivier's book attempts to tie human spirituality with 5D ideas to create a unified theory of everything. It takes five parts:
In Methodology 1, I will present my research into religious material to discover the nature of God.
In Methodology 2, I will present my field research investigation into the nature of God.
In Methodology 3, I will present my research into geometric principles of the universe.
In Methodology 4, I will give a scientific analysis of the philosophy of the 5D theory.
In Methodology 5, I will give a theory of the mathematical applications of the 5D theory.
The basic premise is that no succeeding dimension can exist without the preceding one: each grows from the one before. Olivier posits that all human religions come from the same spiritual source and draws comparisons between them. This is his basic building block and it's clearly explained. As the book goes on, it gets more complex and technical with concepts from maths and physics woven into an explication of the human experience. I appreciated the effort Olivier has gone to in maintaining clarity through some quite abstruse working. These are not easy concepts to understand.
I'm not sure I fully buy into all - or even most - of Olivier's theories and conclusions in this book. But I am seduced by his enthusiastic and interesting attempts to answer life's most fundamental and elusive questions. I think this is what marks us out as human beings: we are curious creatures and our drive is to explore. And that means to explore not only our three-dimensional physical world, but what might also lie beyond it. So for the curious amongst you: this book comes recommended.
