Trinity Cosmology

Life achieves an eternally self-sustaining state of being, and we are part of this. The Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end, becomes one... an eternal strange loop. 

• "A strange loop arises when, by moving only upwards or downwards through a hierarchical system, one finds oneself back to where one started.

The world is panpsychic.The physical sciences and the study of consciousness are coming to the conclusion that mentality is fundamental and ubiquitous in the natural world. The universe, "all that is seen and unseen" (8) is conscious of itself. This is actually a simple conclusion: Because of our contemplation of the fullness of the world, the universe becomes aware of itself.  And, because of our curiosity, the universe discovers its own improbably fine-tuned physical constants necessary to come alive and self sustaining. Scientists and philosophers call this discovery the strong anthropic principle. As explained by John D. Barrow and Frank Tipler, it states that we see fundamental constants that happen to fall within the narrow range thought to be compatible with life because the universe is in some sense compelled to eventually have conscious and sapient life emerge within it.  Life grows in creative powers and so the panpsychic view can be expanded into a cosmopsychic feedback loop maintaining balance and growth.

Through us (conscious life), the universe evolves and becomes self-creating and self-sustaining. Scientists admit, given our current understanding of cosmology, we should ask whether it's possible to create a universe in the laboratory by man-made processes. [5] This makes it possible that you and I are participators in a self-creating universe. The idea of creating a universe in the lab is no joke.

You don't feel like a co-creator of heaven and earth?

Consider the potential of life. Given our recent advances in Artificial Intelligence and Brain Interfacing Technology, it is not unreasonable to assume that further advanced super-intelligent lifeforms have evolved in a converging way to sustain this finely tuned structure of space and time... because life is a signaling and self-sustaining processes programmed to  optimize existence.

We are participators in the creation. Many transhumanists anticipate an intelligence explosion in our near future.  Vernor Vinge states that this explosion happens when an intelligent agent analyzes the processes that produces its intelligence and improves upon them. This process repeats in a positive feedback loop – each successive stage is more intelligent (and creative) than the last and thus more able to increase in intelligence (and creative powers). Once the positive feedback starts to play a role, it will lead to a very dramatic leap in capability very quickly. Technological progress drops into the characteristic timescale of transistors rather than human neurons, and the ascent rapidly surges upward and creates super-intelligence: a mind orders of magnitude more powerful, and creative, than we can know. 

Life's increasing creative powers leads to a technological singularity, and I believe, a physical one, meaning "the big bang" that started the whole thing. [1],[2]  This completes a feedback loop establishing Eternal Homeostasis. 

Homeostasis: any self-regulating process by which systems tend to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival. If homeostasis is successful, life continues; if unsuccessful, disaster or death ensues. The stability attained is actually a dynamic equilibrium, in which continuous change occurs yet relatively uniform conditions prevail.

A familiar example of homeostatic regulation in a mechanical system is the action of a room-temperature regulator, or thermostat. [6] The heart of the thermostat is a bimetallic strip that responds to temperature changes by completing or disrupting an electric circuit. When the room cools, the circuit is completed, the furnace operates, and the temperature rises. At a preset level the circuit breaks, the furnace stops, and the temperature drops. Biological systems, of greater complexity, however, have regulators only very roughly comparable to such mechanical devices. The two types of systems are alike, however, in their goals—to sustain activity within prescribed ranges, whether to control the thickness of rolled steel or the fine-tuned constants of physics necessary for life. 

Stephen Hawkins is famous for asking: What breathes fire into the equations?

We Breathe Fire Into The Equations

The singularity (in both the technological sense and the physical sense) is what I call The Critical Point of Understanding, where life achieves an eternally self-sustaining state of being. I Am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end, become one: an eternal strange loop. 

• "A strange loop arises when, by moving only upwards or downwards through a hierarchical system, one finds oneself back to where one started.

• Strange loops may involve self-reference and paradox. The concept of a strange loop was proposed and extensively discussed by Douglas Hofstadter in Gödel, Escher, Bach, and is further elaborated in Hofstadter's book I Am a Strange Loop, published in 2007."

Considering the underlying homeostatic flow of information in the universe, a torus-like geometry becomes the most probable shape of the universe, and this shape is consistent with the analysis of the extremely accurate Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) which mapped the precise distribution of of cosmic microwave background across the universe. [7] I suggest the universe is Panpsychic (cosmopsychic to be more precise) who's information flow forms a strange loop in the form of a horned torus joined by a technical [3] and physical singularity.

Question: 
In a universe from nothing what separates the beginning from the end?

Answer: 
No-thing separates the beginning from the end.

I Am The Alpha and Omega: beginning and end connected.

"I Am That I Am" is a loop: a substrate independent mind.
Without God There is nothing. We are all next to nothing living in the miracle of being.

 The Gospel of John describes The Way and The Life: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him." His own did not receive him because we fail to contemplate the fullness of God, the Trinity Cosmology.

Trinity Cosmology: Idolatry is worshiping just one aspect of our trinitarian God... which includes the created world he loves, explicitly:  "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16. Against all odds, this gospel sets up salvation, a universal connection, a cosmic strange loop of eternal self-sustaining life. In this view, idolatry is a dangerous ignorance of the fullness of God. 

• In the Gospel According to Luke, there’s that exquisite verse, one of the most beautiful in the Bible, the one that says if God cares deeply about sparrows, don’t you think He cares about you?  One is so accustomed to dwelling on the second, human, half of the equation, the comforting part, but when you put your hand over that and consider only the first, it’s a little startling: God cares deeply about the sparrows. Not just that, He cares about them individually. “Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies?” Jesus says. “Yet not one of them is forgotten in God’s sight.” Sparrows are an important animal for Jesus. In the so-called Infancy Gospel of Thomas, boy Jesus, playing in mud by the river, fashions twelve sparrows out of clay—again the number is mentioned—until a fellow Jew, happening to pass, rebukes him for breaking the Sabbath laws (against “smoothing,” perhaps), at which point Jesus claps and says, “Go!”, and the sparrows fly away chirping. They are not, He says, forgotten. So God remembers them, bears them in mind. Stranger still, He cares about their deaths. In the Gospel According to Matthew we’re told, “Not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.” Think about that. If the bird dies on the branch, and the bird has no immortal soul, and is from that moment only inanimate matter, already basically dust, how can it be “with” God as it’s falling? And not in some abstract all-of-creation sense but in the very way that we are with Him, the explicit point of the verse: the line right before it is “fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul.” If sparrows lack souls, if the logos liveth not in them, Jesus isn’t making any sense in Matthew 10:28-29. (9)

The Fullness of God: The Trinity of Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit in the created world, takes on a clear meaning: 

• In Christian speak we are the “Body of Christ” living in the world. Christ's life and influence upon us is noted here as “The Son”. The refiner's fire is at work. We consciously evolve.
• The Holy Spirit is the dynamics and the connecting principle driving the evolution of matter and life. There is nothing outside this. It is necessary to connect to exists. It is necessary to increase connection to grow in understanding and creative power.
• The central point is where Shannon entropy is at its lowest with information compressed to a simple phrase like; "I Am". I stress simple because the Godhead is not composed or divisible by any physical or metaphysical means. God is within us. Christ had to remind the fundamentalists: ‘Is it not written in your law [in Psalms 82:6], “I said, ‘You are gods’”? If He [God] called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken), do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, “You are blaspheming,” because I said, “I am the Son of God"?” (John 10:34-36). Christ died so that you would receive this Gospel... the psychological and spiritual boost we should receive is: It is OK to play God.
•  If the central point of this torus is I Am then what proceeds above that point is the answer to the question; Now What?  The upper portion of the torus represents the creation; big bang let there be light. There is cosmic inflation and noisy chaos as far as information is concerned. God made a difference.
• From the radius of the torus down to the bottom represents the compression of information into the elements and the appearance of life. Here it is critical to define life in terms of information. With life, significant information processing starts at the immanent or local level. The Nobel Prize winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann defines life in terms of information most elegantly in his book the Quark and The Jaguar. He calls life an Information and gathering and utilizing system. 
• The region at the bottom is where we are today growing in understanding. This part of the Torus represents the learning strategies in the evolution of life and the Christian concept of divinization. In Christian theology, divinization (deification, making divine, or theosis) is the transforming effect of divine grace, the spirit of God, or the atonement of Christ. It literally means to become more divine, more like God, or take upon a divine nature. With the right application of technology the Holy Spirit quickens. We are seeing accelerating returns in the convergence of life-empowering  technology: Nanotechnology, Biotechnology, Information technology and Cognitive science are described in  Converging Technologies for Improving Human Performance, a report sponsored in part by the U.S. National Science Foundation. 

Be careful to note this is not pantheism, it is a pan-en-theistic world view. Panentheism is the orthodox belief that the divine pervades and interpenetrates every part of the universe and also extends beyond our time and space.
With my model above, life looks for a winning strategy, finds it and sustains it forever as the "infinite continuum of life" a formula for engaged re-creation. 

 This is a participatory multiverse (4). Your actions in this world are necessary, they stand eternally written in the process. In this way the trinity and the meaning of life are no longer a mystery. 

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, 

that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

1. Over 60 cosmologists have worked on various versions of self-creation cosmology (SCC) since the original paper in 1982. These papers adapted the Brans Dicke theory to create mass out of the universe's self contained scalar, gravitational and matter fields. SCC may be able to explain some intriguing anomalies also, in the spherically symmetric One-Body problem, it transpires that the temporal Newtonian potential is three times larger than the spatial one. Cosmological solutions to the field equations, which have been published elsewhere, are extended to show that the cosmological density parameter Omega =1. http://arxiv.org/abs/1009.5862
2. Out of nothing (no time, no space and no matter) a universe exists. Within this universe consciousness arises and grows in self-sustaining creative power because that is what life does. We achieve the most optimistic outcome for life, which is a universal and eternally self-sustaining homeostasis. The fine tuning of physical constants are evidence of this homeostasis. When God said he was the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and end, it literally means the beginning and end are joined: SELF CREATED and logically self-sustained eternally. There is nothing outside God and his creation. The self-created idea is well-known among particle physicists and cosmologists.
3. The technological singularity is a hypothetical event in which artificial general intelligence (constituting, for example, intelligent computers, computer networks, or robots) would be capable of recursive self-improvement (progressively redesigning itself), or of autonomously building ever smarter and more powerful machines than itself, up to the point of a runaway effect—an intelligence explosion^[1][2]—that yields an intelligence surpassing all current human control or understanding. Because the capabilities of such asuperintelligence may be impossible for a human to comprehend, the technological singularity is the point beyond which events may become unpredictable or even unfathomable to human intelligence.
4. Observers are necessary to bring the Universe into being. Barrow and Tipler believe that this is a valid conclusion from quantum mechanics, as John Archibald Wheeler has suggested, especially via his idea that information is the fundamental reality (see It from bit) and his Participatory Anthropic Principle (PAP) which is an interpretation of quantum mechanics associated with the ideas of John von Neumann and Eugene Wigner.
