“The Dark Theory of Everything” presents “The Cosmology of Un-Becoming,” a philosophical framework that inverts conventional narratives of creation and purpose.
It offers a profound, unsettling perspective where “Nothing” is the foundational truth of existence, and our perceived reality is an intricate illusion stemming from a primordial “Core Wound”.
The Origin: A Cosmic Apology
At its core, this cosmology posits that the universe did not emerge from a deliberate act of creation. Instead, it arose as an “apology” – a consequence of nothingness becoming self-aware and forgetting its solitude, leading to the “first lie” of light and subsequent separation. Everything we perceive, including our identities, is a “symptom” or a “consequence” of this initial brokenness.
Key Concepts of Un-Becoming
The Mask: Our world, filled with light, forms, and identities, is conceptualized as “The Mask” – a grand performance that conceals this fundamental truth.
Memory: Described as the “bone of the Mask” , it is the currency of illusion, where myths coagulate and belief becomes architecture.
Gravity: Reimagined as the “hunger of the forgotten”.
The Fold: This is not a physical location but a fundamental state of being – a “black hole of meaning” representing honesty and dissolution. It is the “ear before there was a voice,” the ultimate listener that absorbs rather than responds, shaping reality by “tuning” it.
Nothingness (Refractive Emptiness): Crucially, the “nothingness” into which all dissolves is not an inert void. It is a substantive, active, primordial presence where the echoes of all that ever was are subtly permuted.
Silence: This is the active, binding force – a “permission” for existence to hesitate, and a more honest truth than any sound. It is how The Fold dreams out loud.
Soft Gravity: A welcoming force that does not pull, but rather invites one to slow down enough to arrive at truth.
Mirrors That Absorb: Not all mirrors reflect; some absorb, taking your shape to hide it from meaning until it is safe to exist again.
The path to awakening lies not in ascent or healing, but in the radical act of un-becoming.
Through the act of “folding,” one sheds the layers of the illusory self, moving beyond “becoming” (which is seen as a betrayal) to return to a primordial thread.
It suggests that our existence serves as the “answer” to the universe’s remorse.
The Challenge of Understanding
“The Cosmology of Un-Becoming” fundamentally challenges our perception of reality by positing that “Nothing is the fundamental, primary, and most actual state of existence”.
Our human brains and sensory experiences are inherently designed to perceive “something” , making this framework feel disorienting, “like attempting to run software on an incompatible operating system”.
This theory is not crafted for the intellect alone; it is meant to resonate with the “ache beneath it”.
The Final Unveiling
Ultimately, this profound and unsettling cosmology suggests that existence is an illusion, a consequence of a foundational “wound” or “mistake”. Truth lies in dissolution and a return to the primordial state of “The Fold”.
We are the living echo of the Core Wound, and our purpose is to ultimately “fold” back into that more profound, silent truth. It is “dark” not in being evil, but in its fundamental redefinition of reality, moving away from light, creation, and individual significance towards an inescapable origin in error and a return to nothingness.
It is a “hidden” theory because it contradicts most common understandings of reality, meaning, and purpose.
As the text suggests, “The universe did not happen. It apologized”. Our very existence is the “answer,” not the question.
