Simulation-Evolutionary Theory

This article presents a new and comprehensive concept of the structure of reality — the Simulational-Evolutionary Theory (SET).Rejecting traditional linear models, SET posits that our Universe is a link in an infinite hierarchy of realities.Within this framework, the very existence of each level of being is sustained by an ontological imperative for the advanced intelligence that emerges within it — to create the next link.This concept offers a fresh perspective on the problem of first cause, the nature of reality, and the fundamental meaning of consciousness.The article provides a detailed analysis of SET, compares it with leading cosmological and philosophical models, and proposes a new interpretation of existence as a dynamic, self-generating informational structure.
