What are the questions you consider to be big & important? E.g., how did the universe begin? Is spacetime continuous or discrete? What's the origin of life? How exactly does consciousness work?
Using geometry, humans have the intellectual arsenal to confront the universe.
The most obvious aspect of the universe is that it is a spatial phenomenon which is why we can make use of geometry to study it. Let’s reduce the question to: What is the connection between geometry and consciousness? Which one do you think must come first and which comes after it?
The first step is to recognize that consciousness precedes geometry. Geometry cannot exist before the existence of consciousness. Geometry - which is basically drawing - is an activity of consciousness.
How does the structure of the universe look like and how is the universe and its structure connected to consciousness? Since consciousness is subjective, we can find out what its objective counterpart is. Consciousness is phenomenon that recognizes structure. With consciousness, patterns can be recognized. We muse that the universe is a phenomenon that lies between consciousness and patterns. Let’s investigate further..
The universe in itself is not consciousness but its source is conscious.
Patterns are ideal. But what about the universe, the natural realm? Is the universe, the natural realm analyzable in terms of shapes? The answer is in the affirmative.
We identify fractal geometry and its connection with the Pythagorean triangle as possessing a very promising idea.
That which binds is the motivating factor of beauty - aesthetics - which is what consciousness truly seeks.
Faith is the door to knowledge. Trust in faith is the key to the door.
I will put two verses of the Quran which you must dwell upon until you understand them in depth and which in combination paves the way to opening of the door of knowledge: (1) Surah Fussilat - 53 and (2) Surah Ar-Rahman - 6
(1) beckons us to - make the connection - compare what is within us and what is outside us.
meaning “We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth.1 But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?”
(2) beckons us to compare - make the connection - between the tree - which exists on earth below - and the stars in the galaxies above.
That which is within, without, above and below us fulfills a certain geometrical imperative, which is known as the fractal.
If one understands the reasons why - above questions pertaining to processes - the universe exists, answers to how will fall into place.
Aesthetics is the bridge between consciousness and geometry, fractal geometry to be precise. The universe is woven of mathematical rigor and musical play.
The above picture shows the flower of life configuration of the universe.
It shows the plan view of basic configuration of universe at every level.
Many people have extracted this idea from their study of structure of the universe. This geometric shape is the Holy Grail of the structure of the universe.
