But in the past few years, a new theory called Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) has emerged. The theory suggests the possibility of a “quantum bounce,” where our universe stems from the collapse of a previous universe. Yet what that previous universe looked like was still beyond answering.

pralaya   m. dissolution , reabsorption , destruction , annihilation ; death ; (esp.) the destruction of the whole world , at the end of a Kalpa (s.v.) ...

mahApralaya   m. the total annihilation of the universe at the end of a Kalpa

Vaikuttaa siltä että Loop Quantum Gravity liittyy jotenkin aakaashaan (space/ether), johon mm. ns. joogalento lähinnä perustuu:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_quantum_gravity

in LQG theory space and time are quantized analogously to the way quantities like energy and momentum are quantized in quantum mechanics. The theory gives a physical picture of spacetime where space and time are granular and discrete directly because of quantization just like photons in the quantum theory of electromagnetism and the discrete energy levels of atoms.

Eli siis aakaasha/avaruus on jotain muuta kuin tyhjyyttä - vaikka se aisteille ja jopa hienoimmille mittalaitteille tyhjyydeltä vaikuttaakin -
jos se kerran on "rakeinen" (granular)??

Tämä on kyllä hyvin hatara muistikuva ja tod. näk. osin erheellinen,
mutta muistaaksemme MMY joskus oli sitä mieltä että Rgvedan(??) säe

yathaa puurvam akalpayat

Ralph Griffith'in vähän epätarkalta vaikuttava käännös:

3 Dhātar, the great Creator, then formed in due order Sun and Moon.
He formed in order Heaven and Earth, the regions of the air, and light.

yathA    adv. as, in which way
pUrva    a. being before

...kuvaa mm. sitä kuinka uusi universumi syntyy "muiston" (smRti; ~smriti*) perusteella
annihiloituneesta universumista, kuten esim. "muistikuva" puun siemenen DNA:ssa
on siitä miten puu "rakennetaan":

‘Go the way in which cosmic life always goes. And how it goes? Yatha purvam akalpayat—“As it was before”. “As it was before”. “As it was before”. This is Natural Law. And what was before? Go back and go back and go back and go back, go back, before, before. Where you will come? You will come to a point which will have the memory of infinity, and you’ll come to infinity in this way when you go expansion. Then the whole expanded value will have the memory of the point.

 ‘Now I am addressing those who are fond of democracy. It’s childish, it’s brutal, it’s destructive. But if you do want to stick to democracy, then be wise. You have two contrasting sides of life in your country—one very ignorant, one very wise. Put them together. This [one] is point of intelligence; this [one] is infinity of intelligence. If you are able to harmonize between them, then you are a very wise, intelligent, and prudent democractic. Otherwise, you are a fraud!

‘Democracy in the right sense should be able to reconcile between the two opposites. That is the democracy worth the name. Otherwise, it’s a trash; it’s poison. In the democracy as it is practiced today, each country has been divided—divided into fragments of different—this what you call—parties, parties, parties. Useless and waste of life!

olleen diabetes??)

* Noinkohan suomen sana muisti muistuttaa lähes eniten tuota sanaa ainakin ei-indoeurooppalaisista kiälistä?
