Author’s Note

“The Second Religion”, being the first edition is released in its original form, with one chapter written in an Indian native language, Tamil and two chapters in English. The first chapter namely, The Second Face is a story of a typical South Indian Tamil youth. To make the reader better relate to him and to better understand the emotional part of his life, it was written in his mother tongue, Tamil.

Whereas the remaining two chapters that were written in English are the real game-changer for the entire humanity, as claimed in the cover page itself. So, the readers who find the inconvenience with Tamil may kindly skip the Chapter:1 and follow the sequence, “Introduction, Chapter:2 (The Second Faith) and Chapter:3 (The Second Freedom)”.

About the Author

Introduction

The author finds a typical character, the hero, who happens to suffer emotionally and at the same time, is forced to live a happy and peaceful life. Yes, a life with The First Face, which means the life of a typical person of this material world, that is otherwise called, the First Religion era. The hero, being a middle-class Tamil boy grows up, gets educated and gets employed. He encounters crushes and falls in love too. Cut-throat materialism plays its role; he is forced to quit his love-emotions and to enter into a typically arranged marriage life. He learns more, earns more and lives sufficiently simple.

He later comes to know that he was betrayed in his love-affair cum arranged-marriage. He finds a sudden full stop. He laments and grieves. He then slowly regains from his pain. Now comes his second face. He writes his own story in his mother tongue, Tamil, titled, “The Second Face” to vent out his grief.

He realizes that the problem is not with the betrayers. Or for that matter, the issues are not generally with the persons who commit crimes. It is with the present-day material system, the First Faith, that accepts and promotes materialism and even seeks the help of the mighty, “The God” for supporting the same. The First Freedom brought in religions, ideologies, and other socio-political systems to resolve it, but they ended in vain.

He, now thoroughly analyses and gets to the roots of the problems and comes out with a theory based on truth, called, “The Second Faith”. He identifies three causes for the uprising of materialism in this world and for which he comes out with corresponding three postulates that find scientific and intellectual answers. He brings in the fundamental concepts called, “The Zero” and “The Infinity” and points out its misuse by materialism and at the same time, its legitimate use by non-materialism.

He redefines “Gravity”, “Speed of Light”, “Quantum Physics”, “Absolute Empty Space”, “Energy Space-Time”, “Life Cycle of the Universe”, “Universal Natural Selection” etc., leading to a new “Theory of Everything” that brings out the “Absolute Truth”. He negates both Big Bang and Big Crunch theories. He, at the same time, answers Einstein’s dream of Unified Theory. He establishes that gravity is the cause of everything in this universe, which includes the other three fundamental forces of nature, viz: Electromagnetic Force, Strong Nuclear Force and Weak Nuclear Force. He leaves everything to the act of the capital letter, “G” which incidentally expands not to “God” but to “Gravity”. Yes, he rejects materialism and enforces non-materialism.

And eventually, he comes out with a master plan. He superimposes the principles of the Second Faith on all religions, all ideologies and all political systems that exist now on earth. He brings out the ultimate freedom to humanity, that he calls, “The Second Freedom” of “The Second Religion”.

The Second Faith

(Chapter 2 of “The Second Religion”)

PROLOGUE:

“The Second Faith” is a new philosophical theory of absolute truth that analyses the evolution of human life in general along with the problems it accrued until today. It identifies three fundamental causes that contribute to all social issues that are prevailing now in the materialistic era. It humbly makes scientific elucidations through three respective postulations for the realization of the humankind. And, it paves the way for the ultimate freedom of humanity, namely, “The Second Freedom” of “The Second Religion”.

EVOLUTION AND OBJECTIVE OF HUMANITY:

(1) Like other living forms, human also initially would have acquired the minimum knowledge of logics, in finding food, shelter and partners for procreation, sufficient for survival. Survival includes reproduction too.

(2) Unlike other life-forms, humankind, being placed at the top of the knowledge ladder of all living creatures, through its consciousness and by evolution, acquired more knowledge and slowly misadventured into finding new techniques, that indirectly enabled its primary objective of survival and reproduction. This misadventure, which we shall call as the ” First Cause” started originally the materialism, which uses the material life parameters like, wealth, knowledge, esteem, the act of sex, beauty, fame, health, life-longevity, the strength of power, status, etc. as bargaining (indirect) tools to achieve those basic objectives.

(3) It is only the relentless effort and exploration of humankind through indirect means of achieving the objective of survival and reproduction, that gave way to them, the scope for enhancing these life parameters.

(4) The needless leaps of all life parameters have over a while become quantifiable and amounted to discriminated material gains for humankind, which we shall call as the “Second Cause” for transforming the society more into materialistic.

(5) Thus, these discriminated material gains have become the sole objective of humanity at the multiple levels of individuals, families, and communities, though the underlying objective was only survival and reproduction.

(6) Thus, the human species started concentrating on material gains of these life parameters and ventured only to improve them, which in turn spearheaded comparisons, competitions and conflicts among individuals, families, and communities.

RELEVANCE OF GOD IN THE OBJECTIVE OF HUMANITY:

(7) As these material gains were limitless, humans started worrying about further scope in their gains. It had been a quite long time, out of fear of the unknown, humans were put to believe in different god-fearing paths and also in a Godly Entity which had, as they believed, a proactive role in the activities of humankind.

(8) Thus, since a few thousand years now, the more consolidated form of god-fearing paths came into existence. These god-fearing paths made humanity believe that they would materially be benefited if they surrender, worship and long for the same before the Godly Entity.

(9) Socially bothered leaders, intellectuals, preceptors and religious prophets have emerged over some time. They have given out moral writings, preachings, theories and beliefs so that conflicts and competitions within humanity would subside and peace would prevail.

(10) It is only during this period, depending on the beliefs and practices of the people of different regions of the planet earth, different believing systems came up and evolved ultimately into the present-day religions, to enable humankind hopefully a better-organized way of living.

(11) These religions preached a lot of good practices and ideas and at the same time equally bad, false and superstitious beliefs due to lack of clarity and knowledge about nature.

(12) Religious preachings were based purely on beliefs. They advocated to believe that good deeds will be rewarded, and bad deeds would amount to be punished without any logical explanations.

(13) In the meantime, humanity’s belief in God got further consolidated because it could not comprehend the fundamental nature of the world it lives in. That is, the humankind though intellectually better placed among the species of this finite physical world, could not fully understand the extreme concepts like nothingness(zero), infiniteness(infinity), absolute space, absolute time, absolute energy, absolute gravity and their fundamental interactions. Though there were theories, from the perspective of this finite world, like “Quantum Theory (Theories of Small)” and “Relativity Theory (Theories of Big)”, emerged recently, dealing with micro extremes and macro extremes respectively, they could not come out with an ultimate answer to everything. The all-powerful Almighty, the God, could conveniently be found in these incomprehensible extreme entities, and this became the important “Third Cause” for materialism. This cause had even left scope for the emergence of so-called neo-spiritualists, religious preceptors and religious intellectuals, who practised the so-called “Inner Engineering” which talked about realizing nothingness(zero) while staying in the domain of finiteness. That is, being in a finite arena when one tries to reach out to (and) experience nothingness (zero) he is overwhelmed with the wholeness (infiniteness) and goes to a state of religious ecstasy, because anything finite with respect to nothing is infinite, as per the popular and simple science of mathematical equation, “finite number/zero = infinity”. Also being in a finite domain, if one tries to reach out to and experience the wholeness (infinity), he is reduced to nothingness and is taken to a state of emptiness or egolessness, since, “finite number/infinity= zero”. So science was falsely used by spiritualists to make the “God Factor” relevant, which in turn promoted materialism.

BELIEF ON MATERIALISM BY HUMANITY IN GENERAL:

(14) Though the real objective of humankind was “survival and reproduction”, it had over some time, transformed and ended up in achieving material gains of human life parameters, which indirectly enabled humankind to accomplish the same. It is this misplaced idea and lack of knowledge of humanity comprising both God believing and non-believing groups that the discrimination among humanity on the basis of material gains is real, has become the web and root cause of all social evils.

(15) The humanity of the planet earth evolved into various social groups according to their faiths and beliefs. This list may include different groups of theists, atheists and agnostics. We shall politely call all these groups as First Religion groups.

(16) Cutting across the line, every individual of these groups either craves for, or believes in, or at least acknowledges, the privileges of being materially gained with different life parameters. Almost all faiths, including both believers and nonbelievers, acknowledged that a human being is assumed to be blessed if he materially gains.

BELIEF ON MATERIALISM BY GOD BELIEVERS IN PARTICULAR:

(17) At the same time, God Believers, being the majority of human population suffered from an additional set back of falling into a vicious circle of material believing leading to God-believing and God-believing leading to material believing, which fueled the harmful effects of materialistic living exponentially and thereby caused greater damage to the harmony of human society.

(18) Thus, material gains have over a while earned undue importance only because of silent acknowledgement of the same, by different god-fearing religious paths, so far evolved in this world. In other words, inequality and discrimination among humanity based on material gains were deliberately acknowledged and encouraged by these God Believing groups and that were instrumental to cause all social issues and problems.

Postulate – I

It addresses the first cause of materialism, that is responsible for the problems that are being faced by humanity since its origin.

HUMANITY’S MISADVENTURE TO MATERIALISM:

(1) Origin of life can be traced back to the formation or beginning of this planet earth, which can be traced even further up to the very inception of this Universe.

(2) As Darwin observed, the life forms that originated on this planet earth had evolved into different species, and one among them happened to be the human beings.

(3) Among all life forms, the human beings, by default, being better placed in the hierarchy of intelligentsia, were also initially striving only for survival and reproduction.

(4) It is only human’s logical intelligence that made him think out of the box and find new means of achieving the objective of survival and reproduction. The exclusive nature of intelligence only to humans, can be attributed to the evolutionary pathway that branched out from the main “Natural Selection Tree” of all living organisms.

(5) During this evolutionary process, he misadventured into gaining material life parameters like wealth, knowledge, beauty, physical strength, social status, fame, etc., and saw that it ended up in accomplishing the objective of survival and reproduction indirectly. So, one is put to understand that, it is only this accidental leap of human actions in the process of securing survival, that started materialism in the first place.

CONCLUSION:

To resort to material gains for accomplishing the objective of survival was purely an accidental act of humankind. This leap of accidental misadventure into materialism that enabled survival and reproduction to humanity was the first cause of today’s social problems that are prevailing today and this fact has thus been put up, through this postulate, to the realization of humanity as a whole.

Postulate – II

It addresses the second cause that humanity in general, is contributing to the social problems through materialism. Irrespective of belonging to various sections of human societies like theists, atheists and agnostics, etc., every one falsely believed that the quantitative discriminations of material life parameters enabled the humanity better accomplish the primary objective of survival and reproduction. This myth is analysed and resolved here in this postulate, scientifically.

SCIENCE DISAPPROVES MATERIALISTIC DISCRIMINATION OF HUMANITY:

(1) To make the whole humanity non-discriminatory, The Second Religion comes out with scientifically proven elucidations and explanations.

(2) Though material gains are ill-founded and the unwanted by-products of basic instincts of survival and reproduction for humanity, they inseparably dominated their life entirely through evolution.

(3) In other words, even though material gains are myths in human life, they require to be addressed thoroughly, and human beings are to be made to understand their irrelevance more scientifically and logically.

(4) Competitions among human beings made material gains quantifiable, always leaving scope for improvement in them.

(5) As a creature of this universe, human beings can dwell in the finite world and achieve only a limited level of different life parameters, always leaving for infinite scope in them.

(6) Here again, we shall take the same (universal), mathematical and scientific concept that anything finite with respect to infinite is nothing and anything finite with respect to nothing is infinite.

(7) Yes, the popularly known, universally accepted, mathematical equation, “Finite Number/Infinity = Zero” (or) “Finite Number/ Zero = Infinity” provides the relevant scientific explanation for this too.

(8) Whatever be the level of achievement of material gains a human can attain, which is necessarily finite and further scope always being infinite, the resultant realization by or the satisfaction level to a human being is nothing or zero forever.

(9) Now, take the case of individual life parameters (material gains) of humankind. To enumerate; wealth, knowledge, love and affection, sex-life, fame, life-longevity, social status, health, beauty are some of the vital life parameters, humankind always craves to improve upon. But invariably, everyone will end up with nil (zero) satisfaction, proving the point that discrimination among human beings based on such life parameters is untrue.

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY WEALTH IS UNTRUE:

(10) For example, in the case of wealth, a beggar, a street vendor, or even a billionaire realizes the same level of nil-satisfaction, craving always for the further scope which is infinite. Wealth is generally acquired by a human directly by himself or through his ancestors. In either case, manipulation with or exploitation of the socio-economic system is not ruled out. Is it not inhuman for an individual, a family, a community or even a country to resort to amass wealth through the exploitation of the rest of the socio-economic system? Is it not true that priding over the privilege of having wealth and craving with grief over otherwise is both inimical and detrimental to human society?

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY KNOWLEDGE IS UNTRUE:

(11) In the case of knowledge, the satisfaction level of attained will be nothing when compared to the scope, which is ever infinite. That means one will always have nil satisfaction of achievement in the knowledge ladder. Also, a computer engineer, an irrigation field worker or a sweeper, all acquire knowledge according to their situational needs. Can we ever say one’s knowledge is superior to that of others? As we have been observing, it is now highly debatable whether continuous pursual of knowledge that too with a selfish and ulterior motive is good to humanity or not. Privilege over having knowledge and grief over not having it, both are absurd and untenable.

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY BEAUTY IS UNTRUE:

(12) Beauty is again a highly controversial subject. What is beauty? Who defines beauty. Is looking young beautiful. Or, is having a symmetrical face or body shape called beauty. Is being white-skinned beauty for a black. Is being brown-skinned or black-skinned beauty for a white. Why should one be beautiful? Does one require to be unnaturally beautiful for the act of procreation? Even one step further, can a disabled person be claimed less beautiful. What an ugly manipulation we try to adapt to look beautiful. So, is it not inhuman to discriminate people based on beauty?

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY SEX LIFE IS UNTRUE:

(13) Act of sex or sex-life is again another area which is blown out of proportion. Sex is purely meant for reproduction for every living thing. Like other living creatures, human also had sex only for procreation at a suitable age and time. It is thoroughly an unwarranted exploration or exploitation by humankind, which over some time, paved the way for a huge area of conflicts and crimes.
To put it more open, the postures and displays of the opposite sex that we encounter in our daily life, in streets, markets and other public places are nothing but the ugly side of knowingly or unknowingly depicted sexual attractions. Romancing in public media is again another absurd way of sexual acts. We watch hero and heroine romancing and making love with each other in entertainment media. What does it mean? It means, it makes everyone watching the scene assume as if he or she fore-plays with the heroine or hero for a sexual act. Such undue exploration by humanity in the area of sex made a huge and unwarranted leap and irreparable damage to society.
It even made the socio-political decision-makers clueless as to what to do with the transgender people. Sex need not be the ultimate requirement in everyone’s life. Nature does not demand from or provide for everyone to resort to sex on the planet earth. Nature expects those who can reproduce, to resort to sex to that extent, and those who cannot, to ignore. Nature never discriminated people on this basis; it is the humankind which sowed the discrimination. It is only this ignorance of humankind about reproduction that made the planet earth overpopulated, causing a lot of adverse effects like global warming, unhealthy irrigation practices, unhealthy lifestyles etc. Thus, can we ever say, that one is superior to the other, based on his or her sex life?

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY LONGEVITY OF LIFE IS UNTRUE:

(14) Next comes one’s life span or longevity. Any living things get aged due to gravitational phenomenon. It is only gravity that is responsible for the changes in the cells of living beings, and that causes ageing. So, one is expected by nature to live for a period of reasonable longevity with adequate quality of life. Sudden deaths at an early age due to accidents or prolonging one’s life-span in a vegetative state with ailments, are all consequences of human interventions. Thus, living along with nature only can yield a better quality of life with optimal longevity and life span. A lot of intellectuals and preceptors lived a short span of life and had shown the world the right path to live, in the first religion era. Thus, one can never claim that living longer is a privilege over not doing so.

SOCIAL DISCRIMINATION BY SOCIAL STATUS IS UNTRUE:

(15) People attain powerful positions (social status) through genuine means and practices very rarely. Manipulations and exploitations are common means for one to get to the top. Above all, what is meant by being powerful. Will one ever be satisfied and contented with the attained social status in the ladder of power. In any case, can the people at the helm of affairs claim superiority over the others? Is it not a deplorable act of human to enjoy such positions?

CONCLUSION:

Likewise, we can explain every life parameters and the inference would be that there can’t be any discrimination among individuals, families, castes, religions, communities and countries based on material gains. And if any individual and any such groups as above, claim and try to enjoy discriminations based on material gains of life parameters, is it not a subhuman act on their part? Thus, the myth that disparity among human beings based on their achieved material gains, provides for discriminated (better) survival, being the second cause of today’s social problem, is demolished thoroughly by a scientific (mathematical) substantiation. And, this postulate as above is put to the whole humanity, for realization and practice.

Postulate- III

It analyses and addresses the third important cause of materialism, that is responsible for today’s social problems. That is, the belief of humanity in discriminated material gains is actively furthered and got consolidated only because of the silent acknowledgement of the same by the god-fearing paths. In other words, the vast majority of human-kind, being god believers, started to correlate discriminated material gains with the act of God. And, this caused an additional setback of falling into a vicious circle of material believing leading to God-believing and God-believing, leading to material believing. It led the world community as a whole to orient towards competitive materialism, which fueled the harmful effects of worldly living, exponentially, causing greater damage to the harmony of human society. And this concept of God came to stay among humanity, due to the fear of unknown and incomprehensible entities like, zero, infinity and other puzzles of science. This myth is once for all resolved by this postulate, by establishing a new “THEORY OF EVERYTHING” with a set of redefined scientific theories, that make the very concept of God, irrelevant.

ENERGY- SPACE-TIME REDEFINED:

(1) Originally there was nothing in the space, and it was absolutely empty with an infinite volume of space and infinite rate of time flow. The universe that we are living in is the energy space that comprises innumerable phase-shifted energy bodies like galaxies, each possessing energy gradient from zero mass-energy to near-infinite mass-energy, maintaining the net mass of the universe at zero at any point in time (taking into account of simultaneity problem), with a never-ending phenomenon of their creation and annihilation. Yes, the energy space that we enjoy is a transient phenomenon between creation and annihilation of energy in the absolute empty space, exploiting the principle of non-simultaneity of events/ times. Also, Energy Space, interwoven with the different local rate of time-flows called, Energy-Space-Time is further elaborated as follows.

(2) With reference to the present-day (our) local flow of time, it was infinitely long back that there were perturbations that lead to minuscule energy fluctuation in the Absolute Empty Space, whereby a pocket of minuscule energy of next to zero (0+) value, interwoven with minuscule time-lapse rose with say, positive charge at the point of origin (we may call it as the hypothetical point of Big Bang or White Singularity) and to compensate the same, innumerable phase-shifted and oppositely (anti-energy) charged energy pockets, appeared (immediately after the appearance of the first energy pocket), all originated from the same point of origin, the sum charge of all of which was equal and opposite (negative) to the first positive charge, so that the net value of energy was zero. Taking advantage of the principle of non-simultaneity of events, that occur in different space-time reference frames, the minuscule time-lapse that was consumed by each energy pocket to form, resulted in and gave rise to the creation of innumerable phase-shifted and oppositely charged energy pockets, each of which catered, in turn, the same, without getting annihilated with each other. And, this resulted in the birth of different phase-shifted (charged) energy regions in the shape of say, conical lobes, all of which concentered at the point of origin and had grown rapidly in size and catered to the growth of Energy Space-time, spherically in all directions. The shapes of conical lobe and sphere are used here for simplicity of understanding, though they are not so because of curvature of the Energy Space-time.

(3) These energy lobes of same phase charge-dimension, were the basic units of energy space, covering the range of time flow from the near-infinite rate in the near-zero mass-energy region, that is at the point of origin to slower rate in the concentrated energy region. And, these became the galaxies and other energy bodies of the universe later, keeping the net value of the energy of the universe at zero and justifying matter and anti-matter balance at any point in time. Matter of one galaxy became anti-matter to that of all other galaxies of the universe put together.

(4) Every galaxy and other equivalent energy bodies of the universe gain energy from the point of fluctuation of Absolute Empty Space almost uniformly and grow around their points of energy concentration. These concentrations, first become normal black holes, then supermassive and finally the infinitely massive black holes, heading to the point of annihilation at the infinitely future point in time.

(5) Light being a massless energy wave instantaneously skips the intergalactic regions, wherein resides the Absolute Empty Space. At the same time, the speed of light in the intergalactic region and(or) in the Absolute Empty Space is the ratio (“c”) of near-infinite distance with respect to the near-infinite time at the near-infinite rate of time flow. In other words, the speed of light is infinite in the zero mass-energy regions with respect to the finite rate of time flow of the finite mass-energy regions. Thus, from the perspective of energy space, the entire region of Absolute Empty Space is nothing but a dimensionless point, though it occupied an infinite volume of absolute space. Similarly, from the perspective of the Absolute Empty Space, the energy space, that is the universe, becomes a dimensionless point, though it occupies a bounded-infinite energy-space between its White Singularity at one end and its Black Singularity at the other end, both are explained hereunder.

(6) We shall also call the energy (source) gateway of each (shifted) phase from the point of fluctuation of the Absolute Empty Space, that is from the hypothetical point of Big Bang or the White Singularity towards the individual galaxies, as White Holes, through which the energy components can only come out towards the energy space.

(7) The galaxies are appearing to be staying together in the energy space because of the instantaneous crossing of zero mass-energy waves like light (EM Waves) in the huge intergalactic (Absolute Empty Space) region. This is the reason that there is no centre for the universe. This is the reason that the universe is isotropic and homogeneous.

(8) It is primarily the continuous pumping in of energy from the point of fluctuation, which may be today’s vacuum energy or dark energy (or a gradient of energy-fluid) through White Holes and also to some extent the radiated energies, back from the celestial bodies like planets, stars, supernovae and black holes etc. of the same galaxy, that causes the very creation and expansion of the energy space with dynamic variations in the energy gradient within the galaxies. This process, in turn, causes red-shift and make the galaxies appear to be receding away.

(9) The black holes/supermassive black holes being the ultimate(near-infinite) concentrations of energy in the galaxies, though appear to be moving away, are moving inwards, towards the point of (so-called) Big Crunch or Black Singularity or the point of energy annihilation. This is to be understood as an inversion to the hypothetical point of Big Bang or White Singularity or the point of energy creation. That is, if White Singularity is a place of zero mass with an infinite volume of space and treated by light as a single point, Black Singularity is a place of infinite mass with zero volume of space and treated by light as multiple points. In other words, from the perspective of our energy space, the white singularity is imagined as an infinitely vast empty space and at the same time realized as a single dimensionless point. Similarly, the black singularity is imagined as an ultimate endpoint of space and at the same time realized as a collection of multiple numbers of near infinite-mass concentrations, orienting towards that point. Here, these near infinite-mass concentrations are the actual black holes/supermassive black holes, which are otherwise the energy gateways orienting towards this Black Singularity. Black holes corresponding to each galactical units have inverted conical lobes with near-infinite energy concentrations at their lobe-ends, undergoing the interactive process of energy annihilation with other lobes, all spherically concentered at the Black Singularity. The shapes of conical lobe and sphere are used here too, for simplicity of understanding.

(10) From the perspective of the energy space, light travels at infinite speed (or spreads instantaneously) in the Absolute Empty Space region (or in the White Singularity region). It starts to slow down once it enters the energy space and gets near zero speed at the black holes/supermassive black holes and ultimately gets struck beyond, at the Black Singularity.

(11) Also, Einstein’s relativity (both special and general) theories still hold good, if the space-time structure of the universe is replaced by energy-space-time structure.

(12) Thus, for the energy components that came into these galactical units through white holes from the White Singularity, the ultimate escape route is through corresponding supermassive black holes to the Black Singularity, as an inverse action. Energy came from nothing at White Singularity and goes away to nothing at Black Singularity, keeping at the same time, the net mass of the universe zero at any point in time, taking into account of simultaneity problem. Here, the wonderful inference is that the points of both White Singularity and Black Singularity lie everywhere in the Universe.

LIFE CYCLE OF THE UNIVERSE REDEFINED:

(13) As far as the life of the universe is concerned, there are three cases of possibilities. The first case of possibility is as follows. With reference to our local time flow, fluctuations of energy leading to the birth of the universe from the White Singularity would have started almost infinitely past in time. Also, from the start of energy creation as vacuum energy or different grades of dark energy to clumping of energy to become baryonic and to form subatomic particles, atoms, molecules and other stellar matters, to merging of celestial bodies like planets, stars, black holes, etc. within the galaxies and to inter-galactical mergers among galaxies, it will take a near-infinite amount of time to make the galaxies grow more and more and to become infinitely massive with infinitely massive black holes at the centre. Thus, from the perspective of our time flow, these innumerable infinitely massive black holes, with phase-shifted charges, will hypothetically unite and get annihilated at the point of black singularity as a single event, in an infinitely future point in time, as a reverse process to the birth of universe through the white singularity. However, in the meantime, new galaxies may continue to form and grow with the energy pumped in through white holes from the white singularity. Hence, in this case, the BIG CRUNCH of the whole universe will not be a reality from the perspective of our (finite) rate of time flow.

(14) The second possible case for the life cycle of the universe is theorized as follows. It is to be noted that the mass of the black hole of the resultant (merged) galaxy will always be less than the sum of the masses of the black holes of any two merging galaxies since they are already phase shifted. These mass defects will be minimal for the mergers happening within the galaxies as the phase difference of their charges will also be minimal. Whereas these deficits will be more for the mergers that occur among local groups, whose phase difference will be relatively more. It will be furthermore for the mergers that happen, maybe in the far future, among faraway galaxies, whose phase difference also will be furthermore. In this process of mergers, there may be a final event of a merger of only two galaxies with infinitely massive black holes at their centers, orienting towards the point of Black Singularity. Since in this case, the mass deficit will be equal to the total of masses of the black holes of the merging galaxies, it will end up in a final (complete) annihilation. Again, here also new galaxies will continue to form with the incoming energy through the white singularity, and Big Crunch of the whole universe will not be a reality.

(15) The third possible case for the life cycle of the universe is theorized as hereunder. In the process of galactical mergers as narrated in the second case, if the mass deficit exceeds the mass of the anyone of the two merging galaxies, then the resultant galaxy becomes less massive than either of the merging galaxies individually. That means, at this stage of mergers, the merged galaxy becomes lesser massive. It thereby becomes younger than either of them, stalling the very concept of ageing of galaxies and ageing of the universe. Also, there would already be newborn galaxies in the making in the universe due to continuous pumping of energy through white holes. Thus, here too, the Big Crunch of the universe will not be a possibility.

(16) In all the above cases, though the universe originates at White Singularity or the hypothetical point of Big Bang by positive energy fluctuations, and as an opposite action, tends to annihilate through negative energy fluctuations by ‘energy and anti-energy’ combining at Black Singularity or the hypothetical point of Big Crunch, we can never conclusively claim, with respect to a finite rate of time flow of this (finite) universe that they both could occur in definite points in time of the past and the future respectively. This negates the very concept of both birth and death of the universe. This also denies the theories like, Multiverse, Big Rip, Big Freeze, Big Bounce, Big Slurp, Closed Universe and Open Universe, so far evolved in the arena of science. Thus, the universe is eternal and has no origin, no end, and will almost appear to be flat with respect to the local time flow rate of any point in the universe. Also, in all the above cases, the centers of galaxies though get continuously enmassed and grow inward to the point of infinite mass, will appear to be always receding away because of continuous creation of energy space with pumping in of energy from the white singularity, that is the Absolute Empty Space. The receding of farther galactical centers appears to be moving away with accelerated speed because the emanated light from those galaxies is to cross more number of growing galaxies to reach the observer, catering to more redshift.

SPEED OF LIGHT REDEFINED:

(17) The texture of our energy space is so continuous that it accommodates the complete energy gradient from zero energy density to infinite energy density. The electromagnetic wave of zero mass-energy travels at infinite speed in the zero energy density region, at near-infinite speed in the near-zero energy density region and varying speed in the varying energy density regions with respect to any observer’s local (finite) rate of time flow. It is only the varying rate of time flow, interwoven with varying energy gradient of the energy space that keeps the speed of EM wave as a constant ratio, “c” in every region of the universe.

(18) Absolute Empty Space was the fundamental entity before the inception of the Universe. Light (we may call all electromagnetic waves as light), being a massless entity of the Universe (the Energy Space) is infinitely fast and instantaneously be present everywhere in the Absolute Empty Space, to start with. Light maintains its fundamental property of constant speed, “c” with respect to its local rate of time flow, everywhere, which includes both the Absolute Empty Space and the Energy Space (the Universe). Light spreads to infinite distance in the Absolute Empty Space, where the time-flow rate is infinite and stands still at the black holes, where the time-flow rate is zero, so that the speed constant is maintained at ‘c’. In other words, light is getting attenuated as it enters the Energy Space from the Absolute Empty Space, in accordance to the energy density present in the Universe. Hence, from the perspective of an observer in the energy space, with respect to his/her local time-flow rate, light travels at infinite speed in the Absolute Empty Space and at zero speed at the (infinitely massive) black holes.

(19) The constancy of light speed as postulated in Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity (2nd Postulate) can now be better explained as follows. Movement of objects in an inertial reference frame of an observer creates a disturbance in the texture of the energy-space-time to the extent of its speed, resulting in the consequential effects like, change in energy densities in the direction of movement, change in light speed, length contraction, time dilation, etc. The speed of light reduces before a moving object to the extent of the object’s speed. Similarly, it increases behind a moving object to the same extent of its speed.

Assume that ‘v’ is the speed of the light source. If light beam travels along with the moving light source in the same direction, then the energy space before the light source is so dense that the light speed is decreased and becomes ‘(c-v)’. For an observer, who is at rest, the relative light speed being the addition of the two, becomes ‘(c-v) +v’, which is equal to ‘c’. If light beam travels opposite to moving light source, then the energy space behind the moving light source is so eased that the light speed is increased and becomes ‘(c+v)’. Now, for the observer at rest, the relative light speed being the difference of the two, becomes ‘(c+v)-v’, which is again equal to ‘c’.

Similarly assume that when the light source is at rest, the speed of the moving observer is ‘v’. When the light beam is travelling along with the moving observer, it is allowed to go in the eased energy space behind the moving observer, and thereby the light speed is increased to ‘(c+v)’. Now, the relative light speed with respect to the moving observer, being the difference between the two, becomes ‘(c+v)-v’, which is equal to ‘c’. When the light beam is travelling opposite to moving observer, the energy space before the observer is so dense that the speed of the light beam is reduced to ‘(c-v)’. The relative light speed with respect to the moving observer, being the addition of the two, becomes ‘(c-v) +v’, which is again equal to ‘c’.

Similarly, the postulate-1 of Special Theory of Relativity that all physical laws including constancy of light speed are same in all inertial frames of reference holds good here too, since there will be no disturbance in the energy space of the observer’s inertial reference frame.

QUANTUM THEORY REDEFINED:

(20) The energy gradients of the quantum world, containing zero mass to infinitesimally small mass ingredients, like the electromagnetic photon, Higgs boson, dark energy, dark matter and other subatomic particles are front line negotiators of our energy (native) space with the Absolute Empty Space, where movements are almost instantaneous with an infinite rate of time flow. Here Dark Energy and Dark Matter may have further divisions so that a smooth transition from zero(nothing) to something, is established, although it may be humanly impractical to realize.

(21) For an observer of the classical world, movements of subatomic particles in the quantum world would almost be instantaneous with near-infinite speed. And further down in the Absolute Empty Space, it would be merely infinite. That means as we drill down from the classical world to the quantum world and further down to Absolute Empty Space, the subatomic particles will seem to be present everywhere. This is the reason that the subatomic particles assume both the states of particle and wave at the same time (wave-particle duality) for an observer of the classical world.

(22) This explains all the puzzles of quantum physics like Quantum Entanglement, Quantum Measurement Problem, Uncertainty Principle, EPR Paradox, Deterministic Causality Problem etc. For example, take the case of Quantum Entanglement. It is the same particle in the quantum world (of Absolute Empty Space), when observed through different points of the classical world, looks like another (entangled) particle possessing opposite characteristics. These points of observation may be spatially separated by any distance across the (energy space) universe.

GRAVITY REDEFINED:

(23) The phenomenon of gravity is born out of spontaneous intervention of energy with the everlasting and infinitely vast Absolute Empty Space. Yes, gravity is a transient process, by which energy that came from nothing is made to head towards nothing, thereby creating a transient energy space, that is the Universe. Thus, the universe is a transient entity, from the perspective of Absolute Empty Space, which is eternal. But ironically the universe has no beginning and no end from the perspective of an observer from within too.

Thus, Gravity is redefined as the process of energy rejecting the space to accomplish energy’s self-annihilation. Conversely, it can also be redefined as the consequence of space rejecting energy to enable annihilation of energy. Yes, both space and energy don’t accept each other. Energy borrowed space and became Energy-Space and ultimately pays it back by self-annihilation. The moment, the minuscule energy components of each phase, from the initial fluctuations, popped up into its respective galactical units, it rejected the (absolute) empty space between them and started to clump together with other energy components and thereby creating the basic energy space that is otherwise called vacuum energy space corresponding to each galactical unit. Simultaneously time-flow also started to slow down from its infinite rate (of the absolute empty space) to a lesser rate, towards each galactical unit independently. Similarly, within each galactical unit, higher-order (higher mass) energy components rejected the lower order (low mass) energy space and clumped together to form further higher-order (high mass) energy components and so on.

This phenomenon of clumping (merging) of energy, being the fallout of gravity did not annihilate energy because of its (almost) same phase-dimension, and it ended up (almost) in the rejection of space between them only. A miniature portion of the observed mass-defects or mass-deficits of micro and macro energy bodies, while their fusing or merging is due to their miniature phase differences even within the same galactical units. Energy rejecting space ended up in creating Energy-Space, which in turn, by interweaving with time ended up in creating Energy-Space-Time, growing towards every galactical centers.

(24) Gravity was hence the cause of the very realization of energy-space-time or the universe itself. Thus in a way the Absolute Empty Space, though realizable as only a single point from the perspective of the universe, encompasses the whole Energy-Space-Time, that is the Universe. Here, see, the puzzle, “NOTHING (The Absolute Empty Space) ACCOMMODATES EVERYTHING (The Universe)”. Yes, this nothing is a “BIG NOTHING” or an “INFINITE NOTHING”. But, not to worry, this puzzle is very much resolvable through the prism of curvature of energy-space-time.

(25) Gravity, being the consequence of the rejection of space by the energy, was hence the cause of all physical formations both within and among the galaxies in the entire energy-space-time or the universe, as a whole. Thus, gravity was the cause of formation of energy-gradient in galactical units from zero mass-energy (non-baryonic) particles to non-zero mass-energy (baryonic) particles; hierarchically from vacuum energy to dark energy, to dark matter, to sub-atomic particles, to atoms, to molecules, to planets, to stars, to black holes, to supermassive black holes, to galaxies and to galactic-clusters.

(26) Gravity, as redefined here, is responsible for micro-interactions and dynamism that include propagation of zero mass-energy waves (or particles) like electromagnetic waves, movement of subatomic particles like electrons, protons, neutrinos, bosons etc. It is this gravity that is solely responsible for the other three fundamental forces, viz. The electromagnetic force, Strong nuclear force and Weak nuclear force. It is also responsible for macro interactions and dynamism that include movement of astronomical bodies like, satellites, planets, stars, galaxies, galactic clusters and their cosmological mergers.

(27) While being responsible for the origin, growth and ageing of all life forms, the redefined gravitational phenomenon is the cause of all intellectual and conscious level acts of all living things on planet earth. The established “Natural Selection” principle of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, hence essentially becomes a consequence of this “Redefined Gravity”. Similarly, this redefined gravity being responsible for all physical, chemical, biological and cosmological interactions of the whole universe, is instrumental to the phenomenon, called “Universal Natural Selection”, that includes “Cosmological Natural Selection”, which is the fall out of gravity in the cosmic scale.

(28) Redefined Gravity that causes curving of energy-space-time around energy points, also causes movements of energy points in the curved energy-space-time, resulting in Einstein’s Gravitational observations. It thereby conforms to Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity too. Also, it leaves the theories like String Theory, Wormhole Theory, Time Travel Theory, etc., behind, as undue fancification of science.

(29) The redefined gravity kindles intelligence of every living-form to survive and as a consequence, to reproduce. The mix of life forms on the planet earth necessarily possessed and evolved to different levels of intelligence and consciousness, and incidentally, the better-placed ones are called human species.

(30) The never-ending improvements in material gains of life parameters are also the recent introduction by humankind between its gravitational demand for survival and reproduction and their accomplishments. It is thus proved beyond doubt that there cannot be any mystical, illogical or supernatural interference in the dynamics of the universe and in particular in the activities of human life other than the gravitational phenomenon of nature.

NON-RELEVANCE OF GOD:

(31) Human species continually refined its intelligentsia throughout its evolution while accomplishing its objective of survival and reproduction. It is in this process of achieving the objective of survival and reproduction, humankind knowingly or unknowingly explored all forms of life parameters like knowledge, wealth, health, social-positions, love, sex, beauty, life-longevity, fame etc. and created may be in such areas unwarranted leaps too.

(32) Though better placed, human intellect can dwell only in the finite domain of energy space, so does any matter or energy. Absolute Empty Space, which accommodates both zero and infinity, is incomprehensible even in the intellectual levels of humankind. Thus, zero and infinity are only (distant) concepts to human intellect and so are to any matter or energy in this universe.

(33) How much soever human intellects put together can venture, this finite domain may expand and be accommodative but will remain only finite. That means, logics will break down once human intellect ventures from its own finite (resident) domain towards zero and infinity. It is here, where the cause-effect chain will fail. These non-reachable mathematical limits (zero and infinity) and other thus far unresolved areas of physics (origin and fate of the universe, compatibility of quantum and relativity theories etc.), thus became the cause of worry for the humankind. He got puzzled with these extremities and this only contributed fear of unknown to humanity. Therefore, human correlated with and found in this the fear factor, ‘The God’. The introduction of GOD, though mystical was very recent in time when compared to the whole span of human evolution since its origin.

(34) Though the icons of science like Newton and Einstein were right in their theories of physics, they were at the same time incomplete. The theories on “Energy-Space-time”, “Absolute Empty Space”, “Redefined Quantum Theory”, ” Redefined Gravity”, ” Redefined Speed of Light” and “Redefined Life Cycle of the Universe” as hypothesized here, make both “Quantum Physics” and “Theory of Relativity” compatible with each other and culminate into a new “Theory of Everything”, which was so far a challenge for the scientific community. Particularly, Gravity, as redefined here, is responsible for entire dynamism in the universe, including origin, growth, reproduction and death of every life forms. In other words, the “Redefined Gravity” is responsible for the “Universal Natural Selection” that includes the “Cosmic Natural Selection”, which is responsible for the life cycle of the entire cosmological bodies in the macro level and the “Darwinian Natural Selection”, which is responsible for the life cycle of all living organisms in the micro-level. Thus, it is established through these new theories, that the intervening role of a godly entity in the origin and evolution of the universe and in particular in the evolution of all life forms including human species of this planet has absolutely no relevance.

CONCLUSION:

It breaks the vicious cycle of material believing leading to god believing and god believing leading to material believing by establishing, as above the non-relevance of the very concept of god. Thereby it demolishes the belief of all god-fearing paths that materialism is true. Thus, the god factor that is responsible for the consolidation of belief of the majority of humans on discriminatory materialism, being the third cause of all social evils, is proved beyond doubt, irrelevant through the redefined theories of science, as above and the same is put up through this postulate for realization and practice of the humankind.

CLAIM & APPEAL:

• The Second Religion through this ” The Second Faith” claims that the misadventure of humanity to materialism while venturing for the basic objective of survival and reproduction, was the fundamental cause of all the social evils that are prevailing today.
• The Second Faith validates, in general only the non-materialistic humanity, rejecting at the same time the present-day materialism. The accomplished material gains always assume zero value with respect to their scope, resulting in non-discrimination among humanity and thereby implying the irrelevance of material gains in one’s own life. Thus, material gains of all life parameters shall be considered either invalid or adequately of a minimum requirement for every human being, irrespective of his being a believer or nonbeliever. There shall not be any inequality and discrimination at the individual, family, caste, religion, community and country levels, based on the material life parameters.
• The Second Religion through this “The Second Faith” chapter, redefines “gravity”, “space”, “speed of light”, “life cycle of the universe”, etc., as above and thereby makes both “quantum theory” and “relativity theory” compatible to each other. Thus, it addresses the fundamental problems of science and comes out with a new “Theory of Everything”, that leaves no scope for any godly-like act of mystical interference or intelligent designs from the origin to the entire stretch through the evolution of the universe, that we are living in, which in turn implies that no such interference took place in the evolution of entire humanity as well. The relevance of material gains that were hitherto acknowledged and supported by the “God Fearing Paths” is thoroughly disapproved thereby.
• The Second Religion through this “The Second Faith” pleads one and all to pursue this “Absolute Truth” as an “alternate path” at once, while holding on, at the same time the “first religion path” only for the sake of continuity during the transition. The Second Religion specifically appeals to the world’s scientific and intellectual community to pursue, respond and take up this cause further to reach out to the humanity as a whole.
• Since truth has to prevail forever, the Second Religion, through this Second Faith, taking the whole humankind into confidence, will triumph ultimately and stay with the humanity, over every other beliefs and practice, evolved so far and now in vogue.

About the Author

SELVAGANESAN RAMAIAH:

He was born in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, India to a farming family, grew up in a village, graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics at Madurai Kamaraj University, post-graduated with a Master of Science degree in Mathematics at Madras University, qualified for Associate Member of Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers at New Delhi and post-graduated with a Master of Business Administration degree at Madras University.

He, being a mathematician, had fascinations towards the fundamental concepts called, Zero and Infinity since his early college days. He had a strong intuition that the humankind can always dwell in a finite domain and that too in a discrete structure of time and space. This only paved his way for reviewing every physical phenomenon of this universe. Being a technocrat, his tendencies will always be to attribute to a single cause for the multiple effects that may unfold in an environment.

After around twenty years of search and research, he arrived at the conclusion that Gravity is the cause of everything, including the creation of this universe, leaving its origin and end, open-ended in an Absolute Empty Space, which accommodates both the limiting concepts, Zero and Infinity in both Space and Time dimensions.

Coming to the domain of life of the humankind, he concludes that materialism without its due legitimacy found a place in it with the help of a Godly entity, supported again by Zero and Infinity falsely. Here too comes Gravity, to the rescue of the author and resolves all the myths that surround the humanity, leading ultimately to a world of “The Second Religion”. And, it is the first book of the author.
