Multiple Universes

I heard of this theory that there is actually multiple universes all next to each other. Imagine our universe between two sound waves|| / \ / \ | | \ / \ / || the beginning of our universe is at one end(the big bang), and the expansion of the universe is where the waves move apart. When the waves start coming closer together is when our universe starts to collapse on itself and finally when the waves meet again at that exact point in time our universe will exist in a single point in space and the big bang will occur once again. This process repeats itself over and over but we would have no idea how many times it has occured. During this there are universes on each side of ours alternating the same process I just explained. Has anyone else heard of anything like this?

The theory or concept of Parallel Universe was used in the movie of Jet Li entitled "The One". In the story, there are multiple personalities of Jet Li (whose surname is Law in the movie). The bad Law gets stronger and stronger by killing his counterparts in the parallel universes. Law enforcers travel through various parallel universes in pursuit of the bad Jet Li. In my opinion, the concept of parallel universe is a plausible one...

Wah this is so deep, it makes me realise that there something bigger to life than just trying to earn money. I've never heard those before. Well thanks for your enlightenment.

The theory of parallel universes has been in the Islamic culture for more than one thousand years. Unfortunately the decadence that set in led to the theory being almost lost in the sands of time. Those who have heard of it never bothered to give a deeper thought on the subject. Nevertheless there are Muslims who believe in the theory, because of the belief that when God commands something to happen, it will happen. In the spiritual side it is said that after the present universe ends in a collapse a new universe will be created. This cycle will go on into infinity. Unfortunately I do not have further details on this matter. The Big Bang theory and the collapse are mentioned in the Quran, but I am not an expert on it. Whatever, the theory that you mention is more or less similar. all the best, rosdimy

Hmmm, i've read this once in an astrology book but i didn't know there were multiple universes...I only know that in this universe, there are millions of galaxies which are rushing away from each other as the universe expands. But i've seen this sort of animation about that possibility to be true...It's simply amazing how they did the side by side thing with the unverses...My friend showed me this clip somewhere, can't really remember...
