Abstract
If we scale down ourselves to the size of simple bacteria, and look at its processes, we can find that its entire existence relies on three basic abilities. One of them is the feeding process by which it accumulates an “internal energy” for the time when food is scarce, the second is the skill to adapt its basic processes when environment changes, and the third is the “regeneration” process by which it self-replicates when conditions permit. With these three uncomplicated strategies it is very likely that billions of years from now, us will still find bacteria on Earth. And even if our Sun will cease to exist, somewhere else in the galaxy, where similar conditions exist, we assume that the same type of bacteria will continue its existence in a cycle that could last forever. If we can change our scale from the size of the entire Universe to the smaller size of the gravitational particles, what basic processes we could uncover during this journey? At the largest scale we may find what the Big Bang theory tells us, which is that everything had a rough start few billions ago and everything will end few more billion years down the road. However, it is strange that uncomplicated bacteria did discover a way to last forever while the largest structures have their dismissal built into their dawn. Or it is possible that everything we see, stars and galaxies, atoms and quarks, are engaged in a cosmic dance that uses the same basic processes of “regeneration” to fight their inexorable fate... This essay proposes a new theory which views all the matter and all the energy, linked together in a layered context-based hierarchy, structure which makes it possible for everything we see to continue their existence and evolve for eons to come.
