It seems this question has no solution. Scientists say that since the Big Bang, the universe has been expanding. Okay I can buy that one. But then the question turns on inside of what? Another universe possibly? Or nothingness?

What do you think?

The universe expands inside of pure time. Pure time is time that has no direction as nonlocality. So basically the happening localised universe expands into non happening pure nonlocal nondirectional time .Of course once pure nonlocal time has been expanded into it just becomes common old happening directional time. Boring old common directional happening time that you and me are in as conscious observers. Consciousness its self is non directional. Entropy or change gives time its direction as consciously observered. Non directional time is neutral love.

PhilX,

This is a remarkably perspicacious question.

You won't like my thoughts on it because they are derived from a theory you have yet to explore, Beon Theory.

It proposes that at least two things must interact in order for an event to occur, as per Newtonian mechanics. One of them provides a force, the other a counter-force. Again, basic Newtonian stuff.

At our level of reality, interactions and their consequent events occur and are confined within a 3-D space. There is an obscure mathematical theorem that I've learned about but cannot find, anywhere, which states that events can only take place in a space one dimension higher than the space in which they exist.

For example, imagine a theoretical 2-D sheet of paper resting upon the flat surface of a table. Imagine that you lift one end of the paper off the table. This can only happen if a 3-D space exists into which you can lift the 2-D sheet.

It would seem that 3-D objects such as particles would require, according to this theorem, another dimension in which to operate. Ergo, there must exist a fourth dimension.

BTW, forget about time. It is not a dimension in the same sense as space is a dimension. IOW there must be a 4th spatial dimension.

According to the aforementioned Beon Theory, there are two 3-D spaces (mathematicians would call them "manifolds") confined within the 4th spatial dimension, each offering a counterforce to the other. Modern physics has identified one of these, the dark-energy space of the universe we know, but does not refer to it as I've done here.

The other space (manifold) contains the entities responsible for consciousness, with the appropriate counterforce properties.

If (and this could be a very large IF) classical physics principles apply to the very beginnings of the universe, a 4-D space would accommodate two (or more) potentially interactive 3-D spaces.

The universe then is made up of 10 dimensions all sharing the one dimention of time. So time in its origonal state would have been nonlocal to those created 10 dimensions. Thus time existing before hosting other happening dimensions was nondirectional. Time keeps its status as non directional involved in action or not.so it time is sizeless nonlocality as seen in spooky action at distance. There is no such thing as distance for nondirectional time.

Hi Jackles,

Are you talking about string theory here?

Yes more or less
