都市伝説・現代物理学が描く11次元の世界！パラレルワールドの真実を探る

vibration

The world that we usually perceive is a four-dimensional space-time, consisting of a three-dimensional space of length, width, and height, and a one-dimensional time that flows from the past to the future. However, this "common sense" has been greatly shaken at the forefront of modern physics. Physicists searching for the origin of the universe have proposed the possibility of the existence of more dimensions than we can imagine, and the concept of "11 dimensions" is attracting particular attention.

This 11-dimensional world is a grand hypothesis derived from superstring theory (M-theory), which aims to be the ultimate theory of the universe. And what this higher-dimensional existence suggests is more than just the expanse of space, and perhaps it is connected to "parallel worlds," that is, the possibility of countless universes that exist in parallel.

In this article, we will explore what the 11-dimensional world of modern physics is all about, how it connects to the concept of parallel worlds, and how it relates to our reality and consciousness from both a scientific and spiritual perspective.

Chapter 1: The "11-Dimensional World" Seen by Modern Physics

1-1. Why do we need a dimension beyond the fourth dimension?

The four-dimensional space-time in which we live was brilliantly described by Einstein's theory of relativity. The force of gravity is understood as a distortion of space-time, and has succeeded in explaining the orbits of planets and the large-scale structure of the universe. However, quantum mechanics, which governs the microscopic world, is based on completely different rules. Elementary particles exist in multiple places at the same time, and their state is not determined until they are observed, and they behave in a way that is far from our daily intuition.

One of the biggest challenges in modern physics is to unify the theory of relativity (gravity) and quantum mechanics (the interaction of elementary particles such as electromagnetism, strong nuclear forces, and weak nuclear forces) and to construct a "theory of everything." The current standard model does not provide a uniform description of these forces. This is where the idea of a higher-dimensional space beyond our perception comes into play.

1-2. Superstring Theory and 11 Dimensions

"Superstring theory" is considered one of the most likely candidates for this theory of everything. This theory assumes that the smallest unit of matter is not a particle like a point, but a very small, vibrating string of energy called a "string". Just like the strings of a violin, the vibration pattern of these strings determines the types and properties of various elementary particles such as electrons, photons, and quarks.

The amazing thing about string theory is that its mathematical structure does not consist only of our four-dimensional space-time. In order to describe the behavior and interactions of all elementary particles without contradiction in theory, we would need much more dimensions than our world. There were various types of string theory, but "M-theory" was proposed as the ultimate theory to integrate them. The number of dimensions predicted by this M theory is "11 dimensions".

These 11 dimensions consist of a total of 10 spatial dimensions, such as the one in which we move up, down, left and right, and one dimension of time.

1-3. Where are the 11th dimensions?

If 11 dimensions really exist, why can't we perceive them in our daily lives? Of the 11 dimensions, the seven dimensions that are redundant other than our four-dimensional space-time are considered to be very small and "rolled up" (compacted). It is as if a hose that looks like a line from a distance has an extra dimension of thickness (circumference) when viewed up close, and each point of our space-time has an extra-dimensional dimension of a very small high-dimensional space. It is believed that the shape of this extra dimension, which is too small to be observed, determines the type of elementary particles and the laws of physics.

There is also the idea of the "brain world hypothesis". This is a model in which our universe exists on a four-dimensional surface like a "brain" floating in a higher-dimensional (e.g., 11th-dimensional) space. Forces such as elementary particles, electromagnetic forces, and nuclear forces are confined in this brain, but it is thought that only gravity can leak into high-dimensional space (bulk), so it may be felt weaker than other forces.

Chapter 2: The Connection Between the 11th Dimension and Parallel Worlds

2-1. Image of the Universe Suggested by Superstring Theory

There are so many possibilities for how the extra dimensions are wound up in an 11-dimensional space. Mathematically, it has been shown that there can be a huge number of different shapes, such as a manifold called a Calabi-Yau manifold. Each shape can cause different laws of physics in our universe (such as the mass of elementary particles and the strength of their interactions).

If this is correct, then in the vast 11-dimensional universe, there can be countless regions or "vacuums" in which the extra dimensions are wound up in different ways. Each region may appear as an independent "universe" with different physical laws. This is one of the main reasons why superstring theory suggests the possibility of a "multiverse", that is, multiple universes.

Furthermore, the brain world hypothesis suggests that there are multiple brains (membranes) floating in 11-dimensional space, and that each brain may be a four-dimensional universe like our universe. These brains may exist in parallel with each other or may collide with each other.

2-2. Quantum Mechanical Many-Worlds Interpretation

Another strong scientific basis for the possibility of parallel worlds is the "many-worlds interpretation" derived from quantum mechanics. In quantum mechanics, microscopic particles before they are observed are in an ambiguous state in which multiple states exist at the same time, called "superposition". For example, a cat in a box is superimposed on the living and dead states until it is observed. Then, at the moment of opening the box and observing it, the state of the cat is determined to be either alive or dead (contraction of the wave function).

One interpretation of the problem of why a single state is determined by this "observation" (observation problem) is the many-worlds interpretation proposed by physicist Hugh Everett III. This interpretation considers that each time an observation is made, the universe diverges to correspond to all possible outcomes. The universe in which the cat lives and the universe in which the cat is dead exist at the same time and diverge. And we interpret it as just going along one of those universes.

This many-worlds interpretation is not directly linked to the 11-dimensional theory, but it is one of the scientific views that strongly supports the parallel world theory in that "there are parallel worlds other than the universe as we recognize it." In a universe where quantum events are constantly occurring, this bifurcation repeats indefinitely, resulting in literally countless parallel universes.

2-3. Commonalities between multidimensionality and parallel universes

A multiverse with different physical laws suggested by the 11-dimensional theory, and a divergent universe suggested by the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. Although the approaches are different, they both have in common that the single reality we perceive is not everything.

If we think in an 11-dimensional framework, there may be a universe with completely different physical laws and history right next to our four-dimensional brain universe, or in another realm with a different way of winding up the extra dimension. In terms of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, it means that there can be an infinite number of universes that have diverged from certain moments in the past through choices and events that are different from our universe in the space of the same physical laws.

It can be said that these different scientific perspectives compounded the possibility of the grand concept of parallel worlds.

Chapter 3: How do parallel worlds connect to reality?

3-1. Experience "parallel shift" in everyday life?

When you hear such a scientific hypothesis, you may wonder how it relates to our daily lives. Although not scientifically proven, some people say that they experience what could be called a "parallel shift" in their daily lives.

For example, a slight sense of discomfort, such as "Was there such a thing?" or "The scenery on this road seems to be a little different from before...". Or the memory of the past is at odds with the people around you, a phenomenon similar to the "Mandela Effect". Also, the moment you make a big life choice, you suddenly feel like your surroundings have changed drastically, or unexpected developments occur.

These experiences are commonly described as mere memory errors, coincidences, or cognitive distortions. However, it is also possible to think that if the universe is constantly diverging, as in the many-worlds interpretation, or if there is another universe next to our universe, as in the brain world, then we may be consciously or unconsciously "transitioning" slightly between these parallel worlds. It may appear in our perception as a very slight "deviation".

3-2. The Role of Consciousness and Frequency (Spiritual Perspective)

The idea of parallel worlds, especially the transition to the desired reality by our intentions, is hotly discussed in the spiritual realm. Here, "consciousness" and "frequency (vibration)" are said to be the key to this.

Spiritual thought believes that our consciousness, thoughts, and emotions create reality. The Law of Attraction is a prime example. And it is believed that each person has a unique "frequency" or "vibration" that resonates with reality and experience of the same frequency.

From this perspective, we can interpret that the state of consciousness we are in (joy, gratitude, anxiety, anger, etc.) determines our frequency and, as a result, selects parallel worlds with which we resonate. For example, having a strong sense of positive emotion can increase your frequency and make it easier for you to move into a more desirable reality, or a "positive parallel world." Conversely, when we are trapped in negative emotions, our frequency decreases and we are more likely to attract difficult realities.

This idea is sometimes understood as an analogy to scientific resonance or field theory, but it does not have scientific proof. However, in terms of the influence of one's state of consciousness on the reality we perceive, it can also be seen in connection with the debate over the role of consciousness in the observational problems of quantum mechanics.

3-3. Meditation and Altered Conscious Approaches

Meditation and vibrational adjustment are ways to consciously access parallel worlds and move into the desired reality.

Meditation is said to have the effect of expanding consciousness by moving away from everyday distractions and entering a deep state of introspection. In this altered state of consciousness, a sense of normalcy and physical constraints can be obtained, and some people interpret this as "the feeling of being in touch with another dimension or parallel world." The visions and inspiration gained during meditation can lead to changes in the real world, which is also talked about as a possibility of accessing and transitioning to parallel worlds.

In addition, various methods have been suggested for intentionally raising the frequency, such as having a sense of gratitude, vividly imagining the desired reality of the future (affirmations), listening to soothing music, and spending time in nature. Through these practices, the approach is to change the energy state of the self, resonate with a parallel world with a higher frequency, and "shift" reality.

3-4. Fusion of Science and Spirituality

The concept of 11 dimensions and parallel worlds is a cutting-edge hypothesis in modern physics, and has been the subject of spiritual exploration since ancient times. Science seeks to describe the structure of the universe based on objective mathematical formulas and observational data, while spirituality seeks to understand reality and the essence of the universe through subjective experience and the workings of consciousness.

These two seemingly incompatible disciplines have the potential to complement each other in uncharted realms such as the multidimensional universe, parallel worlds, and the role of consciousness. Physics suggests an objective structure that may lie "behind" the reality we perceive, while spirituality explores the subjective aspects of how that structure relates to our consciousness and what experiences it creates.

The line between science and spirituality is becoming increasingly blurred, such as the involvement of consciousness in the observational problems of quantum mechanics and the idea of the universe as an information processing system. Future scientific and technological developments may help us integrate these two perspectives and better understand the truth of the multidimensional universe and parallel worlds.

Chapter 4: Future Science and Parallel Worlds

4-1. Space Exploration and the Multidimensional Future

Modern space exploration is mainly focused on observing the structure of three-dimensional space and celestial bodies, but in the future, as technology advances further, it may be possible to detect indirect evidence of the existence of 11-dimensional or parallel worlds.

For example, high-energy physics experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are investigating unknown behaviors of elementary particles and phenomena that may indicate the leakage of energy into higher-dimensional space. In addition, future precise gravitational wave telescopes may be able to capture traces of the multidimensional universe, such as collisions in the brane universe and gravitational waves traveling through high-dimensional space. It is also discussed that traces of interaction with another universe are hidden in the microscopic patterns of the cosmic microwave background radiation.

By accumulating these observational data and comparing them with the 11-dimensional models and multiverse models constructed by theoretical physicists, it is expected that we will be able to obtain more scientific knowledge about what kind of high-dimensional structure our universe is part of, and what kind of parallel worlds coexist with.

4-2. The connection between AI and parallel worlds

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has the potential to be a powerful tool in the study of multidimensional universes and parallel worlds. The mathematics of superstring theory and M-theory is extremely complex, and there is a limit to the calculation and analysis of the human brain alone. Advanced AI will help simulate these complex equations and the structure of multidimensional spaces, revealing previously unseen patterns of physical laws and possible shapes of extra dimensions.

AI may also be able to analyze vast amounts of space observation data and particle experiment data to detect signs of higher dimensions and parallel worlds that humans often overlook. Going further, by collecting and analyzing subjective experiential data such as "parallel shifts" experienced by individuals, it may be applied to research that explores the correlation between the state of consciousness and changes in reality.

4-3. The Potential of Future Society Shown by the 11th Dimension

If the existence of 11 dimensions and parallel worlds is scientifically established, it will fundamentally overturn our view of the universe and life. And it has the potential to have a major impact on the future of society.

For example, new physical theories and engineering techniques may emerge to understand and utilize multidimensional space. There is also a possibility that new ways to solve energy problems and science fiction-like technologies such as superluminal communication and travel will be realized by using higher dimensions. And if the idea that our consciousness and frequencies choose aspects of reality is scientifically supported, it will revolutionize fields such as education, medicine, and psychology. We can imagine a future in which technology can help us improve our health by adjusting our mental state, dramatically increase our learning efficiency, or intentionally create our desired reality.

4-4. Technology that utilizes parallel worlds

If we go further, we may see a technology that "leverages" parallel worlds themselves. This is the realm of science fiction, but the possibility is, for example, the development of a device that allows consciousness to "access" another parallel world by creating a specific frequency or energy state to obtain information or share experiences. Alternatively, a technique that deliberately manipulates quantum superposition states to "test" multiple real-world possibilities at the same time and select the optimal outcome may be conceivable.

At present, these ideas are nothing more than science fiction, but the cutting-edge theories of modern physics, such as the 11th dimension and the many-worlds interpretation, are opening the door to such future possibilities. When science and spirituality merge, and it becomes clear that our consciousness and the multidimensional structure of the universe are inextricably linked, our world will be reimagined as a place of infinite possibilities, far beyond physical constraints.

Conclusion

The concept of the 11-dimensional world depicted by modern physics and the parallel world derived from it is still in the hypothesis stage. However, these theories suggest that our universe is not confined to a four-dimensional space-time box, but rather has a structure that is vast, more complex, and full of unimaginable possibilities.

Scientific exploration seeks to uncover an objective picture of this uncharted territory through observable data and mathematical consistency. Spiritual exploration, on the other hand, seeks to feel a connection with another side of reality and a higher dimension through our inner, conscious, and subjective experiences.

Each of these quests is told in a different language, but perhaps they capture a glimpse of the same grand truth. The mysteries of the eleven-dimensional world and parallel worlds will be unraveled little by little as science advances and our own consciousness deepens. It will be a journey that will completely change our worldview and reaffirm who we are and what infinite possibilities we have.
