=> DUALITY OF TIME - 3.4.5.10 Consistent Histories... .4.5.10 Consistent Histories The consistent histories interpretation generalizes the conventional Copenhagen interpretation and attempts to provide a natural interpretation of quantum cosmology. The theory is based on a consistency criterion that allows the history of a system to be ...
=> Relative and Curved Time... n us and bent (hadaba al-dahr ‘alayna wa inhana)' [I.202.7]. It is important to notice here that he used the word 'the age' (or eternal, 'divine time'), instead of time, because in modern cosmology the curvature of time is apparent only at very large scales, and we shall see below (secti ...
=> The Significance of Each Day of the Divine Week... ere . The Significance of Each Day of the Divine Week The Significance of Each Day of the Divine Week: Because of the importance of the Days of the Week of divine creation in Ibn al-Arabi's cosmology, he writes about them at length in the Futuhat and other books.

=> Spreading the Shadows... deed very important existentially because Allah made them as guides for us, in all the ways we have just reviewed. But what is particularly important here, in terms of Ibn al-Arabi's actual cosmology and understanding of time, is that the created entities of the world that are the evanesce ...
=> The Contrasting Approaches of Sufism and Philosophy... who have not 'tasted' it their way. So when they try to explain their insights, not many people will understand what they say. The problem with the current laws and theories of physics and cosmology is that so far, although they have proved to be quite accurate and powerful in application ...
=> Time in Modern Science:... sands and millions of years ago when the light that we see now was actually emitted by them. But this is still not like travel in physical time, which is conceivable now only in theoretical cosmology. Although travel in time is possible and allowed according to the equations of Relativity, ...
=> The Age... rom this eternity (azal), time emerged.' [I.156.35] This could be slightly confusing, but there are some references in Ibn al-Arabi's writing that seem to parallel what is known in modern cosmology as the 'bubbles' model of the universe, where the universe is full of black holes that cau ...

We can fairly say that Ibn al-Arabi's conception of natural time is the time known in physics and cosmology, and that this spiritual time resembles what is called by many modern philosophers 'psycho ...

The information brought together in this Table III.1 provides essential keys to Ibn al-Arabi's cosmology, astrological symbolism, and understanding of the spiritual hierarchy. However here we are ...

=> Space-Time and the Speed of Light... rse is a maximum terminal as we have seen above (the theory of Relativity), but in the anti-universe it would be a minimum terminal. Such a case, therefore, is predictable in Ibn al-Arabi's cosmology, as he mentions in regard to this mysterious 'earth of Reality'. =========== [1] For more ...
=> Space-Time and Creation in Six Days... el, Ibn al-Arabi's complex, unique interpretation of those many verses in the Qur’an (and the Bible) that talk about the creation in six Days is promising in terms of modern astronomy and cosmology, because it suggests the first real unification between space and time, as well as a sense ...

According to these postulates, space is homogeneous like that which we feel on the earth. In modern cosmology and with the highly intensity gravity found near giant stars and galaxies, space can no lo ...

However, because of the novelty of these ideas, and since this is the first attempt to treat these esoteric subjects under the umbrella of physics and cosmology, the discussion in these two chapters will be limited to general description of their hier ...

In fact the metaphysical triplicity of subject, object and resulting act is fundamental throughout Ibn ‘Arabî's cosmology. Thus he summarizes the process of creation by saying that the Universal Intellect (subjec ...
