Ouroboran Universe and Nature of Time
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Comprehending time’s fundamental nature exposes a foundational dissonance within modern physics. This arises from the seemingly incommensurable descriptions provided by its two most successful, yet distinct, theoretical pillars: General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. These frameworks, individually powerful within their domains, employ different languages, assumptions, and conceptualizations of reality, creating a schism that has persisted for decades. A coherent synthesis to address “What is time?” necessitates confronting this dissonance, recognizing it not as an irreconcilable conflict, but as a crucial set of clues pointing toward a deeper, unified, underlying structure where both views hold validity from their limited perspectives. This enduring tension is rooted in a fundamental category error: the mistaken reification of epistemic models, or “maps,” for the ontological reality, or “territory,” itself.
