THE C I P O R H T N A PRINCIPLE

==============================

( W h a t i s i t ? )

Everybody knows the Ciporhtna Principle in modern science, especially in the (metaphysically oriented) cosmology: it is the Anthropic Principle - backwards.

Why backwards?

Because it represents an 'upside down' logic. It says: the universe (as in our world, the physical law, the units, quantities, etc.) has GOT to be exactly as it is, within those quantities exactly, as they are ,easured, to facilitate OUR occurrence, as observers of it. And that, indeed, is the goal of the creation, which imparts any sense into the whole system: an intelligent observer to observ and appreciate the "creation of the Creator".

The 'downside up' way (the opposite of the upside down way) can be formulated as: our universe, (as in physical laws, the units, quantities, etc.) developed/shaped into the exact format which indeed occurred by virtue of the conditions (the initial, the influential, the interconnective effects - whatever) and developed its own complexity.

Under such conditions an ideationally advanced "part" (a subunit, a component, or an interconnected microcomplexity-ingredient, i. e. us) developed according to and fitting into the parameters that 'evolved' and 'interactively effected' such evolvement into us. How are we indeed? Exactly as fitting into the map of our environmental parameters (the environment in a broad sense). So these parameters gave us a nose, a stomach, limbs, and a "mind" with that weird "(human) logic" - which thinks that we are something very important.

No, we are not. We are the momentary part of that evolutionary sequence, shaped in many different ways and the one you can see in your mirror survived and proliferated to this time. We were not something exceptional yesterday, say 6m years ago, and may not be within the survivors tomorrow - sometime later, or even stop proliferating at all. That is the real Anthropic Principle: we are here and now,

we are the temporary (transitional) consequence in a sequence in the overall evolutionary game.

True, we are exceptionally technological, incredibly communicative, we innovated a lot, but the first creatures crawling out from the waters learned to walk or fly - which innovation was no small achievement either. We do have an impact on nature, but so had the blue-green algae polluting the atmosphere with oxygen.

The other way around it is the Ciporhtna Principle.
