My Art Manifestation Chapter 12:

Previously, I published a section titled “Mathematics is human’s discovery, but nature does not use this math because it does not make calculations”. In short, I meant that the laws of physics do not do mathematical operations. In fact, there is no scientist who says that those laws do counting. However, an interesting situation exists; the laws of nature do not count or calculate anything, but they create a numerical pattern, order and rhythm with incredible proportions, creating the universe and continuing this for fourteen billion years.

I have given detailed statements of Nobel-prized scientists on this subject before. Let me repeat a few comments briefly, as it is necessary. In his book The Character of Physical Law, Richard P. Feynman said that There is an invisible rhythm and order in nature, and this is exactly what we call the laws of physics. By saying that the only way to understand the laws of nature is mathematics, he clearly stated that it can only be understood by means of mathematics. Similarly, another scientist, Steven Weinberg stated in his book The First Three Minutes that the particles that make up the universe obey the laws of statistical mechanics.

To summarize, the laws of nature not perform mathematical operations such as counting, etc., but in all works, those laws have created an enormous order that can only be understood by mathematical methods by those who do research like us. Therefore, as Feynman said, we can discover laws and their deeds only by means of mathematical methods, i.e. by counting and making calculations. That’s why, except those who are well-informed on the subject, almost everyone thinks that mathematical operations have been in effect in the laws of nature since the Big Bang. However, current scientific information says that there is no such element in the laws of nature.

Well, but how can the order of nature provide these enormous results, which, in our opinion, are mathematical in every detail, without doing any numerical operations? More importantly, what features should it have so that it can do this? Now, let’s continue with the step-by-step logic.

We mentioned that by looking at the pattern of events using mathematical methods, we can tell about what might happen in the future. However, we can do all this because we have a memory and a mind above all else. So here, first of all, it turns out that memory is a very important and necessary element because in order to evaluate the development of events, every situation and every stage of the past process, even a second before the current event, must have been recorded as information somewhere. That is, memory is required. Otherwise, the change in the event, the difference in development cannot be evaluated. If it cannot be evaluated, a meaningful result, that is, this universe, cannot come into existence.

So here is the situation; whatever triggered the action before or at the moment of the Big Bang, must have some form of memory or a similar recording mechanism. Having memory is not enough though. There must also be an extremely fast processor that can read and evaluate the recorded situations in the memory. So that it can read and evaluate the recorded situation and create the form accordingly. Let’s say that laws have memory, or a mind. Well, is having a mind enough to evaluate the events? Of course not because along with the mind, it must also have the information and plan about the development process of the beginning and every event that begins and how it will end so that it can complete the action correctly. If there is no information at hand, an evaluation cannot occur and a result cannot be achieved. If it does not have any criterion, how will it evaluate the event and give directions?

Anyway, let me keep it brief. There is no information that in the initial conditions, a memory, a mind, or similar elements or properties existed in nature or its laws. Of course, this brings us to a different point. If there is no memory in nature, and no element such as a processor, then the laws must necessarily be limited to the moment. They can only assess the current situation and produce results limited to that moment. Let’s assume the laws were limited to the moment, then what happens? In this case, if a physical event does not have past knowledge, the laws will not have a connection with the previous moment. Of course, this also means that it will not be connected to the following moment because the action continues, and the current moment and the next moment will not be in the same state, they will change. Therefore, if there is no information about the past, the laws cannot predict the future.

We are following such a speculative logic, but of course we also know that the laws of nature have neither a memory or mind nor a plan or a scenario. However, from the beginning of time, there is an infallible correlation and harmony within the beginnings and the ends of all physical phenomena, regardless of the duration. In other words, within the framework of the laws of nature, a natural event that has started ends exactly as it should. Then, for the events in order to form a meaningful whole, even if they are in the form of an instant, there must be a plan or some information about how it begins and ends.

As I mentioned above, doing these requires having intellect, in the most understandable terms. However, as mentioned again, the laws of nature started and have maintained this system for fourteen billion, even though they have no element of intelligence.

It is now accepted by almost all scientists that the universe started with laws. Now, in a TV show with the participation of prominent names of the field such as Stephen Hawking, Carl Sagan, Arthur C. Clarke (link is given below), Stephen Hawking clearly explains the state of the laws of nature while explaining the God-universe relationship. Hawking’s states that all research shows that the universe works according to well-defined laws. It was previously thought that laws were determined by the start of the universe, but it was seen in the last few years that the laws of science started with the formation of time. The universe started with the laws of science.

To summarize more clearly; scientists thought that the laws of nature were determined after the Big Bang began. Therefore, it could be interpreted that these laws may have been determined by God. However, it turned out later that the laws were not determined by the start of the universe; the laws themselves started the universe. As I have exemplified in various ways in my previous articles, during the formation of the universe the laws did not give directions under the effect of the events. They almost dictated what the entire formation, from particles to stars, would do.

Of course, this result brings up a very interesting situation since saying that the universe started with laws also means that the universe did not create these laws on its own, but found them ready. I have written about this subject in detail. For nature to create a law or anything, the Big Bang had to start acting. However, nature was able to act only with laws. This means that the universe has found the laws already existing. That’s why I say it is so important to study the laws of nature because science tells us that in initial conditions the universe came into existence at a very high speed, in very small fractions of a second, with unbelievable fine tuning, with almost impossible results. There are many examples on this subject; let me give one from Hawking.

Why is the universe so close to the border line between infinite expansion and collapsing again? To get as close to that line as we are today, the rate of expansion must have been chosen extraordinarily precisely in the beginning. If the rate of expansion had been smaller as one ten-billionth of a second after the Big Bang, the universe would have collapsed back a few million years later. If this were bigger as one in ten billion, the universe would be almost empty after a few million years. (The Nature of Space and Time, Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose)

 

 

To put it more clearly; Hawking says that the expansion rate must have been very finely tuned in the beginning so this universe could exist. Otherwise, he states that, even if there is a plus or minus difference of one in ten billionths in the rate of expansion in the first second, our current universe would not exist; neither stars nor us would be in existence. Hawking expresses this situation with very precise numbers, but points out that somehow surprisingly the laws started and maintained this at exactly the speed it should be. It can be understood from this that, as I said above, in the beginning the universe found the very precise laws of nature already existing. However, there is another side of the coin.

Yes, our nature found the laws already existing, but what did the laws find already existing? What did they have at hand so that the laws applied the rules that they had structured, and the universe was formed? You don’t need to think too much about it. The law had only one thing at hand: energy. In short, it is the unknown (in the standard state) raw material which the laws put into various forms during the Big Bang and appears to us as energy. You know, that ‘thing’ that we all know as “cannot be created out of nothing or destroyed completely”. Energy cannot be created from nothing, but it is also unknown how it came into existence!

I said that there is the other side of the coin regarding energy, which is the building block and raw material of the universe. There are very interesting points, and I will continue in the next section.
