This presentation describes some of the roles that microvita play in the Cosmic Cycle of Creation. Emanated by the Cosmic Mind, microvita play a role in the formation of elementary particles, atoms, viruses, the origin of life and minds, the evolution of plants, animals and human beings, the development of civilization, and merging human minds and individual consciousness with the non-qualified infinite Supreme Consciousness that is the spiritual goal of life. Also, an experiment is described to test the hypothesis that microvita are released from radioactive atoms to create DNA and RNA-carrying viruses that form single-celled living beings in a suitable chemical environment.

A Cosmic Mind, emanating and utilizing subtle subatomic living entities called microvita, may have created the DNA genetic code and the universe and spread living cells, minds, species, human beings and civilizations throughout the universe. According to Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, who introduced the concept in 1986, microvita are the smallest individual entities in the universe. Billions of microvita form atoms and create viruses that spread life and minds in the universe. They can also spread diseases, since microvita can be positive, negative or neutral. Highly intellectually and spiritually developed researchers are urgently need to develop, test and apply the theory of microvita. According to P. R. Sarkar, “We are human beings with developed intellect. I think, rather I hope, rather I am sure that the day is sure to come when human beings will have proper control of these microvita.” “Our task is gigantic and we are to start our research work regarding these microvita immediately without further delay, otherwise many problems in modern society will not be solved in a nice way.” Downloading, reading, studying and widely sharing with friends and colleagues this complete collection of microvita-related discourses by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar is one of the best ways to launch and support the coming microvita revolution. Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, 1921-1990, also known as Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, was a spiritual master in the yogic tradition of Shiva and Krishna, and the founder of the international socio-spiritual movement Ananda Marga (“Path of Bliss”)

Lord Krishna is the central figure of the Mahabharata. He got His work done through different characters as per His own choice. He was God Himself in human form.” “Now in His own creation He has kept a special role for Himself. Such a personality is known as “Mahasambhuti.” Lord Shiva was one such personality; Lord Krishna was another such personality. He is beyond the scope of relativity, beyond the barriers of time, space and person.” In a remarkable series of discourses about the Mahabharata, P. R. Sarkar gives new insights into the characters, nature and purpose of this epic war, whose goal was to unify Indian society and to reestablish Dharma. The lessons of that great event are still highly relevant in our world today. Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (1921-1990) was a spiritual teacher in the tradition of Shiva and Krishna, and the founder of the global socio-spiritual movement Ananda Marga (“Path of Bliss”).

The best explanation for such a finding could be that a Cosmic Mind created the Big Bang from subatomic living entities called microvita, that carried the universal genetic code into the new universe from the Cosmic Mind. These microvita later formed the fundamental physical particles and atoms containing the universal genetic code. The artificial intelligence program Meta-AI was asked to analyze this idea and the possible objections of atheists to such a finding. Meta-AI then describes possible scientific and social consequences of a possible new general scientific consensus that a universe-and-microvitacreating God would the best explanation for such an experimental finding. Finally, Meta-AI summarizes its knowledge about microvita.

How can the concept of microvita be experimentally tested? To help find out, a question-and-answer session about a proposed experiment to test for microvita was conducted between a hypothetical microvitum and Meta AI, an artificial intelligence language model. Meta AI proposed several possible naturalistic explanations for a positive experimental outcome. Meta AI also considered a possible supernatural explanation—a cosmic mind emanating exotic particles or fields that could explain positive experimental results. Meta AI then also considered and commented favorably about some ideas possibly related to a cosmic mind—the physical universe existing within a cosmic mind; an infinite supreme consciousness; human free will and karma; an ultimate spiritual goal of every human being; and a sometimes-physically-embodied universal Guru for all humanity.

"No one has discussed Him much up until now. Why people failed to make this appraisal is irrelevant today. It is the firm duty of every individual to know and evaluate the exact contribution of Shiva, and in this process of evaluation, we cannot ignore the personality Himself. One may derive some joy from a bright ray emanating from a shining entity, but without the entity itself, the bliss will not be complete." The remarkable collection of P. R. Sarkar's discourses presented here about Shiva, who lived about 7000 years ago, is highly recommended to all scholars and others interested to know more about the real historical Shiva, his spiritual and social contributions and his shining personality. Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (1921-1990) was the spiritual preceptor and founder of Ananda Marga ("Path of Bliss"), a global socio-spiritual movement.

A Cosmic Mind emanating subatomic living cosmic evolutionary intelligence agents called microvita... more A Cosmic Mind emanating subatomic living cosmic evolutionary intelligence agents called microvita may become the scientifically required explanation for the rapid origin of new, immediately viable species from existing species during climate crises, as well as for forming the first viruses utilized in the origin of protoplasmic life. According to Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, microvita are emanated by the Cosmic Mind to implement Cosmic desires. With Cosmic approval, microvita may create new and immediately viable species by directing transposons or “jumping genes” in an organism’s genome to transfer and multiply a specific portion of the genome’s shiftable DNA to pre-planned DNA sites in the genome. These rearranged and possibly expanded genomes will generate from current species members a pre-planned new species, pre-adapted to live and thrive in a different environment or ecological niche during periods of catastrophic climate change. The new species requires no further adaptations to the changed environment by Darwinian natural selection, except for minor adaptations that may occur due to the normal genetic variability within a species population. Divine selection, implemented by microvita-directed transposons, regularly creates viable new species that natural selection, based only on the laws of physics and chemistry, could almost never create from existing species.

When the human life [full-life] becomes one with Parama Purus’a (Supreme Consciousness) through the numerous ups and downs of lives together.” “An intelligent person should utilize every part-life to the fullest extent, and then if he/she happens to be reborn in a subsequent part-life, he/she can utilize this acquired technique which he/she originally achieved by dint of proper utilization of the previous part-life. Such a person will be able to perform extraordinary work, will be able to think of nobler things right from early childhood. If a person utilizes one’s existing part-life to an enormous extent, in that case the pointedness of his/her maximum utilization will land him/her ultimately in the supreme stance of Parama Purus’a. Such a person will not be required to come again in another part-life.” Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (1921-1990) was a spiritual teacher and philosopher and founder of the international socio-spiritual organization Ananda Marga (“Path of Bliss”).

When social progress loses its velocity, it is called "yugasandhi" (transitional period) in Sanskrit." "However, at that stage of acute staticity in the society, which occurs every three to four thousand years, a great and extraordinarily powerful personʼs advent is extremely necessary. Such a figure or "Mahásambhúti", infuses dynamism in the social body and accelerates the speed of movement. All the virtuous people in the world respond to his call and rally around him. He creates a polarization in the society: the virtuous versus the wicked. In the clash between the two groups, the virtuous people emerge victorious by dint of their special efforts coupled with the grace of that great personality." "Whenever there a war between dharma and adharma, you are sure to be victorious. You are not alone--dharma is with you, the benevolent intellect is with you, and I am also with you." Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (1921-1990), also known as Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, was a spiritual master and guru in the tradition of Shiva and Krishna, and founded the international socio-spiritual movement Ananda Marga ("the Path of Bliss"). He is considered by many to be the Mahásambhúti of the current transitional period.

For example, “The Cosmic Mind is uni-purposive and multilateral. The unit mind is multi-purposive and unilateral.” And “The organs themselves are shaped and their relative strength is determined according to the needs of the mind for preserving the body against environmental conditions. Thus, the physical structure goes on developing and getting complex with the development of the mind.” Shrii Shrii Anandamurti’s philosophy on these important topics is elaborated in the references. Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, also known as Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, was the founder in 1955 of Ananda Marga, an international socio-spiritual movement.

These are 1) animals in human form, 2) noble human beings in human form and 3) godlike beings in human form. The physico-psycho-spiritual practices of Yoga have the goal of transforming the animal-like psychological stage of human beings into the noble human stage, then into the godlike stage, and finally into oneness with the Supreme Entity or God. Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, also known as Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, was the founder in 1955 of Ananda Marga, an international socio-spiritual movement.

The physico-psycho-spiritual practices of Yoga have the goal of transforming the first evolutionary stage of human beings into the second stage, then into the third stage, and finally into oneness with the Supreme Entity or God.

Rather, the carbon atoms come from microvita. Not only carbon atoms, but all other kinds of atoms are the creation of microvita.” Microvita, according to P. R. Sarkar, are subtle subatomic living entities that spread life and minds in the universe. Also, “Each structure of carbonic origin in this universe, whether animate or inanimate, has a mind. That is, a mind is associated with every structure either in manifested form or in dormant form.” P.R. Sarkar describes individual and social problems resulting from the mind being engrossed in carbonic pabulum (the material world): 1) “the mind will gradually and steadily drift towards crude matter” and 2) “oneʼs mind will think in terms of devouring othersʼ carbonic pabulum (physical possessions). This is the psychological explanation of imperialism.” “In order to wipe out imperialism, which is rooted deep in the human psyche, Neo-ethics based on the following points is indispensable: 1) The Macrocosmic Entity must be accepted as the supreme desideratum in human life. 2) There should be happy adjustment and balanced blending between carbonic (physical attractions) and non-carbonic pabula (mental and spiritual attractions).” “If there is a happy adjustment and balanced blending between carbonic and non-carbonic pabula in the human mind and corpor, there will be no imperialism at all. Rather, heaven will descend on the dusty earth.” Also, “while following the path of neo-ethics, human beings will attain enormous progress in the spiritual sphere with greater speed.” P. R. Sarkar (1921-1990) was the founder of the socio-spiritual movement Ananda Marga (“Path of Bliss).

New species are “exceptions” that emerged from otherwise unchanging earlier species. “If such exceptions had not occurred, all fishes, and all primates, such as chimpanzees and gorillas, would have been of the same type. These exceptions were not accidental but were pre-planned to bring about certain changes in the process of evolution.” “The first human beings were born in the vast geographical area between the Java Islands and Palestine. The Australopithecus gradually transformed themselves into human form but this great transformation did not take place overnight, nor even in one century, but by slow degrees.” Here, “pre-planned” can be understood as meaning “pre-planned by God” – the Supreme Consciousness. The three selections here are quoted from longer spiritual and social discourses by P. R. Sarkar (1921-1990), who was the founder of the international socio-spiritual movement “Ananda Marga” (“Path of Bliss”)

For example: “The first human beings were born in the vast geographical area between the Java Islands and Palestine. The Australopithecus gradually transformed themselves into human form but this great transformation did not take place overnight, nor even in one century, but by slow degrees. Ethnologists, to be more precise, have conceived of an intermediate stage of beings – the Homo Erectus – who are neither Australopithecus nor exactly human beings in form and nature.” And: “Since the days of Australopithecine, a new kind of creature slowly evolved: the proto-ape or ape-man. At a certain stage in evolution, one of these creatures became an exception to the norm of the community, resulting in some evolving into chimpanzees, some into orangutans, some into gorillas, and some into human beings. All of these creatures are tailless.”. P. R. Sarkar’s descriptions are often at odds with current scientific understandings about human origins. The latter undergo changes as more fossil evidence is discovered and better dating techniques are developed. P. R. Sarkar (1921-1990) was the founder of Ananda Marga (“The Path of Bliss”), an international socio-spiritual movement.

According to P. R. Sarkar, “Since the days of Australopithecine, a new kind of creature slowly evolved: the proto-ape or ape-man. At a certain stage in evolution, one of these creatures became an exception to the norm of the community, resulting in some evolving into chimpanzees, some into orangutans, some into gorillas, and some into human beings. All of these creatures are tailless. These diverging evolutionary branches occurred due to an exception somewhere along the path of evolution.” And, “These exceptions were not accidental but were pre-planned to bring about certain changes in the process of evolution. Their occurrence led to different evolutionary lines branching off the main established line. Had there been no exceptions, there would have been no major evolutionary changes.” The concept of exceptions also applies to the origin of species in general, to the evolution of languages, to religious reformers, missionary life and many others. “Those people who are society’s exceptions are extraordinary people” says P. R. Sarkar. “These exceptional people are sometimes seen as a bunch of lunatics by others, but the fact is, these so-called lunatics do something new and constructive for society.” “You should also know that you are exceptions. You, too, will do something great, will build something historic.” P. R. Sarkar (1921-1990) was the spiritual master and founder of Ananda Marga (“The Path of Bliss”), an international socio-spiritual movement. Richard Gauthier, St. Louis, USA, February 23, 2024.

Sarkar as subtle subatomic living entities responsible for the origin, transmission and evolution of life in the universe. This book, first published in 1988, introduces the concept of microvita from a scientific research perspective. It suggests ways that microvita may apply to physics, the origin of life, the evolution of life and embryological development and how microvita may also lead to a better understanding of the nature of health and disease. More recent biological research on the interaction between retroviruses and other life forms during biological evolution may support the idea of microvita and gives increasing urgency to the need to understand microvita.

Originating in the Cosmic Mind of God, RNA or DNA-code-carrying microvita were emanated into the Big Bang, formed into fundamental particles and atoms after the Big Bang, and were released from radioactive atoms to develop into RNA or DNA-carrying viruses which may have then formed the first cells of life. A laboratory experiment has been proposed to test the last part of this microvita paradigm. Explaining a positive experimental outcome would be a serious challenge to materialist evolutionary thinkers: How did RNA or DNA information for the origin of life come to be stored in atoms? The Cosmic Mind origin of the DNA/RNA genetic code via microvita could provide a good explanation, thus bringing together science and spirituality in a rational way.

These sprinqs also are proposed to compose all the fundamental particles in these universes by expressing appropriate particle attributes in different environments. The univon is the quantum particle of a univon quantum field. Observational support for this fine-tuned-multiverse hypothesis would also provide support for the hypothesis that a higher or cosmic intelligence created our multiverse with the intention of evolving life and developed minds in every universe, capable of exploring and understanding the universe and the place of life and humanity in it, and capable of exploring possible purposes and meanings of existence. If universes are found with “un-tuned” or essentially random values of their main physical constants and parameters and thus mostly incapable of evolving stable galaxies, stars, life and advanced minds, this would suggest that universes evolve from random, mindless processes. Our universe would then be just a “lucky statistical accident” in an otherwise mostly lifeless and mindless large-scale cosmos. Modeling and testing hypothetical ways a univon could produce the big bang would be another way to test the univon hypothesis.

According to this idea, physical reality may arise from yes-no binary outcomes in quantum measurement experiments, and perhaps from an even deeper information level. This article proposes another idea: that superluminal energy quanta embody the information needed to form the fundamental particles that produce our universe. Superluminal energy quanta were the primordial matter that produced the first hot plasma of fundamental particles during the Big Bang. One superluminal energy quantum may have formed the original primordial quantum particle that produced our universe – the cosmic quantum. Superluminal energy quanta continue to form fundamental particles today such as photons and electrons. The primordial matter of the universe, traditionally called ylem, is proposed to be superluminal energy quanta that form the fundamental particles of our universe – giving rise to the expression “them from ylem”.

The photon model is composed of a pair of superluminal helically-moving opposite electric charges of magnitude Q = e sqrt(2/alpha) = 16.6 e where alpha is the fine structure constant. During electron-positron pair production these charged half-photons curl up their single-helical trajectories to form geometrically-compatible relativistic zitterbewegung-frequency superluminal quantum-vortex electron and positron models. The superluminal charged energy quantum composing the resting electron and positron models moves on the surface of a mathematical horn torus. The accompanying article is at richardgauthier.academia.edu/research . This powerpoint is for the American Physical Society's April 2019 meeting in Denver, Colorado.

The opposite electric charges Q and –Q on the two superluminal energy quanta are calculated to have magnitude Q = e sqrt(2/α) = 16.6e where α = 1 /137.04 is the fine structure constant of quantum electrodynamics (QED). The two charged half-photons are quantum mechanically entangled, creating the unity of the composite photon model. The composite photon model suggests a mechanism for electron-positron pair production, while the predicted charges Q and –Q provide a strong experimental test of the composite photon model. The inertial mass of the double-helix photon model is calculated to be M = E /c^2 = hν /c^2 even though a photon's invariant mass m equals zero.

The two oppositely-charged (with Q = ±e sqrt(2/α) = 16.6e) open-helix spin-½ half-photons compose the double-helix photon. These half-photons separate and curl up their separated superluminal single-helical trajectories to form an electrically-charged superluminal closed-helix spin-½ quantum-vortex electron model and a corresponding positron model. The helical radius and the Dirac equation's zitterbewegung angular frequency of the quantum vortex electron and positron models equal the helical radius and zitterbewegung angular frequency of the two spin-½ half-photons, each of energy E = mc^2, that composed the double-helix photon model of energy E = 2mc^2 from which the electron and positron models were produced. The photon and electron models are also compatible when a photon of energy E > 2mc^2 produces a relativistic electron-positron pair. Implications of the quantum vortex electron model for electron stability are discussed.

Microvita are subtle, sub-microscopic living entities that organize energy to create forms, structures and processes in the universe. Millions of microvita may compose one electron. Quantitative microvita models of a photon and a double-looping electron are derived, using known experimental facts and a proposed helical motion of microvita. The electron model explains the experimental value of the electron's spin. Microvita are related to viruses, and may help explain the origin of life and the evolution of species through the creation and addition of new genes—a process radically different from that described by modern evolutionary theory and also intelligent design. The interplay between positive and negative microvita in the human body and mind may explain the cause of disease, and suggests a new approach to health.

With this hypothesis, new species are not produced by Darwin's "natural selection" or "survival of the fittest" species evolutionary process, or its modern version called neo-darwinism. Rather, new species are by pre-planned virus-based DNA insertion of "jumping genes" or "transposable elements" (TEs)-mobile DNA sequences that invade genomes and contribute to genome and species innovation. These jumping genes produce a burst of genetic and morphogenetic change as some species members are transformed into a new species, which then remains the same new species until it become extinct perhaps millions of years later. The outward result is similar to that of the hypothesis of punctuated equilibria for rapid species formation proposed by Eldredge and Gould in 1972 (to explain persistent gaps in the species fossil record that are not predicted by Darwinism). But in the new hypothesis, the rapid genetic changes that produce new species are "pre-planned", according to Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar's "great exceptions" species evolutionary hypothesis of 1979. According to P.R. Sarkar, atoms are composed of billions of subatomic living entities called microvita, first described in 1986. Microvita were emanated from a Cosmic Mind to produce our universe-forming Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago. Microvita carry pre-planned codes for DNA or RNA from the Cosmic Mind. These microvita first created the fundamental physical particles and then atoms. Microvita are later released from radioactive atoms and in a suitable chemical environment form DNA or RNA-carrying viruses that produce different species of living beings in the universe through the scientifically-accepted evolutionary process of descent with modification, but not by natural selection, which rarely if ever has been observed to cause species transformation. A biological experiment has been proposed to detect the existence of RNA-or DNA-virus-forming microvita in radioactive atoms that could help substantiate this proposed hypothesis for the origin of species.

Microvita were emanated from a Cosmic Mind to produce our universe-forming Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago. Microvita carry pre-planned codes for DNA or RNA from the Cosmic Mind. These microvita first created the fundamental physical particles and then atoms. Microvita are later released from radioactive atoms and in a suitable chemical environment form DNA or RNA-carrying viruses that produce different species of living beings in the universe through the scientifically-accepted evolutionary process of descent with modification, but not by natural selection, which rarely if ever has been observed to cause species transformation. A biological experiment has been proposed to detect the existence of RNA- or DNA-virus-forming microvita in radioactive atoms that could help substantiate this proposed hypothesis for the origin of species.

Dynamical geometrical models of the electron and the photon are proposed which are composed of sh... more Dynamical geometrical models of the electron and the photon are proposed which are composed of sheets of electric charge moving at superluminal velocities in closed and open helical paths respectively. In both models, the sheets of electric charge always internally travel faster than the speed of light, and the size, structure, wavelengths and helical motions of these sheets of electric charge correspond to their energy, momentum and angular momentum, and the electron's magnetic moment to first order. The photon and electron models are closely related through the geometry and dynamics of electron/positron pair production from a photon, resulting in the quantum mechanical 720-degrees rotational symmetry of the electron model. When the electron model moves as a whole with velocity v, it is found that its internal structure generates the electron's de Broglie wavelength L = h / mv , due to internal photon-like Doppler wavelength shifts and wave interference. The electron model also increases its total energy (and therefore its mass) with its velocity in accordance with special relativity, due to the increased net energy associated with the Doppler-shifted frequency of the circulating charged photon-like entity that composes the electron model. Due to the constancy of the electron's angular momentum with velocity, a relativistically moving electron model is found to decrease in size with velocity so as to be consistent with experimental determinations of the maximum size of an electron from high energy scattering experiments. The two models illustrate a new concept of quantum wave-particle duality, where the form of the charged sheets (two in the photon and one in the electron) constitute the particle and their superluminal motion constitutes the wave. This modeling approach predicts that there are two varieties of right circularly polarized photon (and also two types of left circularly polarized photon), depending on whether the positive or negative charge sheet is in front in the photon's direction of motion, and two varieties of negative electron (and two varieties of positron), depending on whether the electric charge sheet in the electron moves forward clockwise or counterclockwise in its closed helical structure. These 2 predicted varieties of the present photon and electron should be distinguishable by the different magnetic fields that they would produce.

The parametric equations for a relativistic, internally-superluminal quantum-vortex electron mode... more The parametric equations for a relativistic, internally-superluminal quantum-vortex electron model are presented for both a spin-up and a spin-down electron. The electron model is composed of a circulating superluminal energy quantum that moves on the surface of a mathematical torus. 3-D diagrams illustrate how the size of the relativistic electron model decreases with its increasing relativistic velocity. Also, the shape of the toroidal surface on which the superluminal energy quantum circulates changes from a horn torus to a spheroidal torus as the relativistic velocity of the electron model increases.

A longer paper is planned. This electron model is derived from the internally-superluminal double-helix photon model described in the article "Entangled Double-Helix Superluminal Photon Model Defined by Fine Structure Constant Has Inertial Mass M=E/c^2" at https://richardgauthier.academia.edu/research .

Two spin-½ charged half-photons, each composed of one helically-circulating electrically-charged ... more Two spin-½ charged half-photons, each composed of one helically-circulating electrically-charged superluminal energy quantum, compose a double-helix photon model of total spin 1 hbar and of diameter D = λ / π where λ is the photon's wavelength. The opposite electric charges Q and –Q on the two superluminal energy quanta are calculated to have magnitude Q = e sqrt(2/α) = 16.6e where α = 1 /137.04 is the fine structure constant of quantum electrodynamics (QED). The two charged half-photons are quantum mechanically entangled, creating the unity of the composite photon model. The composite photon model suggests a mechanism for electron-positron pair production, while the predicted charges Q and –Q provide a strong experimental test of the composite photon model. The inertial mass of the double-helix photon model is calculated to be M = E /c 2 = hν /c 2 even though a photon's invariant mass m equals zero.

Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, a spiritual guru in his own right, wrote insightful books about Shiva and Krishna as historical personalities, describing both their spiritual contributions and their other contributions to society. The spiritual legacy of Shiva is also elaborated in two books by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti (also known as Prabhat Rainjan Sarkar) about Tantra, a universal system of spiritual practices elaborated by Shiva. A biography of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti is also given.

A laboratory experiment has been proposed to test this microvita hypothesis. Explaining a positive experimental outcome would be a serious challenge to materialist evolutionary thinkers: How did the DNA/RNA genetic code for the origin of life come to be stored in atoms? This new scientific paradigm for the Cosmic-Mind origin of the DNA/RNA genetic code via microvita could bringing together science and spirituality and provide strong experimental support for the existence of God.
