概要

 Spherical Spacetime: The Metaphysical Vision of Alexis Karpouzos Spherical Spacetime is one of the most profound and original concepts in the philosophy of Alexis Karpouzos. It does not refer to a mathematical or physical description like those found in the theory of relativity (e.g., a sphere-shaped curved spacetime), but rather to a metaphysical and holistic vision of the universe. It is a dynamic, transformative structure that unites space, time, consciousness, and "the void" into an eternal movement of creation and destruction. Core Characteristics of Spherical Spacetime Sphericity and Wholeness: The term "spherical" symbolizes the omni-centric and symmetrical nature of reality—there is no privileged center; instead, every point is the center. It is the sum-total of all perspectives: an invisible, fleeting center that relates and coordinates all differences, viewpoints, and experiences without flattening them. It ensures unity within multiplicity. Inseparability from the Void: Spherical spacetime is inseparable from absolute zero (the vacuum, the void). Nothing "exists" as a fixed constant—it is created and destroyed simultaneously. This means that existence is not permanent, but a continuous transformation emerging from the void and returning to it in a cycle of creation-destruction. Transformations and Indeterminacy: Its transformations are indeterminate and eternal. They do not follow a linear progression but a spiral movement. Within this spacetime, binary oppositions (e.g., Being/non-Being, light/dark, subject/object) are inscribed where they shift, negate one another, and coexist without contradiction, thanks to paradoxical logic. Connection to Consciousness and Evolution: Every human and living being is constituted by this spherical spacetime. It is the holistic unit of information connecting the microcosm (the atom) to the macrocosm (the universe). The evolution of consciousness occurs through the awareness of this spherical spacetime, where time is non-chronological and space is "atopic" (placeless). Relation to Other Concepts in Karpouzos' Thought Concept Relationship to Spherical Spacetime Relational Ontology Spherical spacetime is the ultimate web of relations—everything exists only through interdependence. Metaphysical Openness Openness arises because spacetime is indeterminate and constantly transforming. The Diagonal Path The path crosses "diagonally" through oppositions and inscribes them into this spherical structure. Paradoxical Logic The logic that embraces contradictions precisely because spherical spacetime incorporates them without conflict. Key Idea: Transcending Linearity Alexis Karpouzos proposes that spacetime is not linear, flat, or infinitely straight (as described by classical physics), but spherical, closed-and-simultaneously-open, omnitemporal, and non-local. In other words, time and space are not separate, independent dimensions, but form a spherical structure where past, present, and future coexist simultaneously in the Timeless state. 1. Omnitemporality All moments of time exist simultaneously. The past is not "lost," and the future is not "yet to come." They are all present at different points on the spherical surface of spacetime. The linear sense of time is merely an illusion of limited human perception. 2. Non-locality and Spherical Closure Just as a sphere has no "beginning" or "end" (if you travel straight around the Earth, you return to the same point), so it is with the universe: every point is simultaneously center and periphery. This connects directly to quantum non-locality (entanglement) and David Bohm's idea of the "holographic universe." 3. Timeless Time When consciousness is liberated from the linear narrative of the ego, it experiences spacetime as spherical: everything happens at once in an eternally present unity. 4. Spacetime as Consciousness Spherical spacetime is not just a physical structure—it is a structure of universal consciousness. Consciousness is not within spacetime; spacetime is a manifestation of consciousness. When human consciousness "awakens," it can experience this sphericity through deep meditative experience or poetic insight. 5. Transcending Causality In spherical spacetime, there is no strict "cause → effect" determinism in the linear sense. Events influence each other cyclically and simultaneously (akin to quantum phenomena where the future may influence the past—retrocausality). The Metaphor of the Horizon "Imagine you are standing on the surface of a vast sphere. Everywhere you look, the horizon curves and returns to you. Time is exactly like that: every moment is the horizon of the other. Your past looks at you from your future, and your future is already present within you." Spherical spacetime is the cosmological expression of the non-dual, holistic, and paradoxical reality proposed by Karpouzos: a universe where everything is simultaneously One and Many, present and boundless, closed and infinitely open.
