The singularity

The Singularity

By: John Kazerooni

A child asked a question. It was not about toys, school, or even the stars. It was a question that seemed to reach beyond the world they could see, into something vast and quiet. The parents did not know the answer. But they could not leave the question unanswered. They told a story—careful, imaginative, and full of certainty in tone. The child listened, wide-eyed, and believed without hesitation. In that moment, the story became truth—not because it was proven, but because it was trusted.

Humanity is like that child. We face the unknown and ask questions: How did the universe begin? What keeps it together? And in response, we create stories. Some come from faith, others from myth, and some from science. Each tries to give shape to the unseen, to explain what we cannot fully grasp.

Science has given us remarkable ideas. The Big Bang, a sudden start of everything from a single point. Inflation, the universe growing faster than we can imagine. The Big Bounce, a universe that collapses and grows again, over and over. The Multiverse, many universes floating like bubbles in endless space. These theories rely on observation, measurement, and math. They are our best attempts to understand the cosmos.

Yet, even the most trusted theories leave questions unanswered. What came before the Big Bang? Why does anything exist at all? Can “before” even exist when time itself began?

Perhaps there is another way to imagine the beginning. The singularity is not just a point of creation, but a hidden source—a quiet, bright root from which all things come. Through the singularity, mass, energy, stars, galaxies, objects, and living beings were born. From it, infinite universes spread out, each with its own rhythm and rules. Some grow like ours, with stars and life. Others flow with different forms of time, or exist in ways we cannot imagine. The singularity is not far away—it threads through every particle, every atom, every galaxy. Each piece of matter, each living being, is connected to it, like droplets bound to the ocean. Even now, it continues to shape creation, weaving invisible threads through everything.

We are bound to space and time, moving within their flow, but the singularity exists beyond these limits. It does not follow our laws of physics, nor can it be measured by clocks or rulers. It is infinite and lawless, yet deeply connected to everything we can touch or see. Gravity, energy, even life itself may be faint signs of this hidden link. Invisible threads stretch from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies, tying all things together. Nothing stands alone. Every object, every being, pulses with the singularity, woven into a living cosmic fabric.

Science shows us what we can observe and measure. But there is room for wonder beyond what we can see. Ignoring the unseen is as limiting as ignoring what we know. Perhaps the wisest path is to hold both truths: the facts we understand and the mysteries we can only imagine.

Like the child who first asked a question, we too must dare to wonder. In that wonder, we see the threads connecting all things to the singularity—threads that move through matter and mass, stars and galaxies, our own bodies and hearts. A singularity that whispers, stretches across the infinite, holds all, and binds all. In its quiet, eternal presence, we are never separate, never alone, always part of the vast, endless tapestry of the cosmos.

And yet… questions remain. 

What lies beyond what we can measure? 

Do we ever truly know the depth of the singularity? 

Could our universe be just one of many expressions of something greater, or only a fleeting reflection of the eternal? 

Are we, in our daily lives, feeling the pull of threads we cannot see? 

Does the singularity continue to shape creation even now? 

Perhaps these questions have no answers—and perhaps that is where the wonder lives.
