Scene from "Interstellar" showing Tesseract: A 4D shape

The concept of dimension always seems to amuse scientist and people. We exist in a 3 dimensional state but our brain can`t stop thinking about the possibilities and existence of things in 4th dimension or 5th dimension. Human brains are definitely not limited, we exist in 3-D state, most of the things we see are 3-D and yet we have numerous theories and philosophies surrounding the idea that multidimension exist. In fact the human kind have been trying to describe the multidimensions since the time spirituality was in practice, however the spirituality shares a great analogy with what`s now known as meta physics.

Let`s begin the modern day multi-dimension theory and then travel back to the beginning of the idea of multi dimension. The multi-dimension theory, today states that “matter is not the dominant thing in the universe, rather the information that creates the matter is”. This theory is also called the “Theory of multidimensional reality ” it is the worlds purely information based theory of existence. There were a lot  of theories trying to explain what is fourth dimension and 5th dimension particularly which were highly anticipated however they were not accepted by a majority of scientists. One theory that is worth mentioning here “time is the 4th dimension”, according to this we are existing in 4th dimension and the time is the invisible 4th branch of our dimension.This theory was believed for a long time and then discarded.

If we look at the meta physical aspect of this topic we might understand why so many theories came and go. According to meta physics we all are the different projections of a single subconsciousness and we exist in the 3D realm. However, it also says that we do not only exist in one realm we have multiple parallel selves that exist in different realms and hence at a given time we are existing in different realms or realities. Since some of these realities might be more developed that us or some might be less developed than us.

Here comes the spiritual aspect, according spirituality when we exist in a higher dimension we do not need to have a 3D body, we are simply existing as an experience which might as well be known as a soul or a vibration. Now this is what they use to refer as our higher self, which exist in a higher dimension while we are existing in the 3D world. The concept of existing as an experience or as a soul is kind of similar to the modern day definition of multidimension as mentioned above. It also states that the whole of the universe is based on the events that leads to a different set of events and its not based on time.

Spiritual dimensions

Since the time is relative and we have defined time in the way it suits the best on earth, now just imagine you get to meet an alien  or go to an alien planet it`s not necessary that they have defined the time same as us, it`s not necessary they have 60 second in a minute or say 24 hours a day. It could be a reason why the theory mentioned above that sated time as the 4th invisible branch was discarded .

In conclusion the multidimension do exist. We exist in a 3D world but simultaneously we are also existing in different dimensions, in different realms. We might not be able to completely describe how the objects would look in higher dimensions because , then we`ll need to have a 3d model of the object and any thing that exist in the 3d world not necessarily be the same way in the higher dimensions. Spirituality could be a major key to unlock various secrets of the universe just like physics, but unfortunately it`s not in practice these days. The major reason could be that people linked spirituality to various kind of religions and now we are only left with the various religious practices without the real reason behind it. This is why people look at science for reasons and do not want to go down deep in their own roots. Last but not the least the inter dimensional travelling can be considered as travelling side ways in time and it is possible according to some believes.

There are infinitely many explanations and theories that are interesting and definitely a good topic for discussion but I`ll  like to conclude here because people might get lost in their head while reading this .
