My life is not my body, yet my life depends on my body to be lived. This vessel of flesh and bone is not me, but it is the sacred place where I found a home. It is the architecture through which my consciousness experiences the world — the instrument through which my life touches,…

A Valentine’s Day Reflection Every Valentine’s Day, we’re told the same story: two halves searching for each other, two incomplete souls hoping someone else will fill the spaces they cannot fill themselves. It’s poetic. It’s romantic. But it’s not how nature works. Humans were never designed as halves. We were designed as whole beings —…

A Unified Framework for Matter, Life, Information, Consciousness, and AI Abstract This paper proposes the Universal Theory of Existence — a unifying framework that integrates physics, biology, information theory, evolutionary science, and cognitive systems. The theory begins with a single foundational axiom: existence is the only universal law. From this axiom, the paper derives a…

On Existence, Life, Death, Information, Black Holes, AI, Purpose, and the Universe Learning to Understand Itself** Voice 1: Why does anything exist at all? Why does the universe bother with stars, life, consciousness, or complexity? Why not remain as silent particles drifting in an endless void? Voice 2: Maybe because existence is the only universal…

Abstract This paper proposes a conceptual framework in which black holes function analogously to biological reproductive systems. Drawing from established models in black hole cosmology, bouncing cosmology, and cosmological natural selection, the hypothesis suggests that the interior of a black hole may serve as a generative environment for a new universe. The analogy between biological…

I was rushed to Accident & Emergency at St Mary’s Hospital, London, with an unsustainable heart rate—later diagnosed as high atrial fibrillation (AF). My body was in crisis. My heart, volatile beyond measure. And yet, what…

There are moments in history when a nation doesn’t just falter—it forgets itself. Not through war or invasion, but through erosion. Through the slow, silent unraveling of its moral architecture, its civic rituals, and its shared mythologies. America, in this moment, is unbecoming. Not because of one man. But because of what we’ve allowed to…

Nature seems to favor cycles over stasis. Death, in this view, isn’t an end—it’s a handoff. Forever may be a human illusion. Nature prefers relativity—time, space, and even identity are fluid. Conscious Universe: Intelligence Beyond Biology The idea that the universe is a conscious, evolving ecosystem isn’t fringe—it’s echoed in quantum theory, panpsychism, and indigenous…

More than a decade ago, in the quiet sanctity of a Buddhist temple in Putuoshan, China, I found myself seated across from the head monk, sharing tea and exchanging thoughts that would linger in my mind long after. The encounter was unexpected, initiated by his curiosity about my connection to Bodhgaya, the sacred place of…
