We Are a Fractal of God, But Who Created God?

Starting from the famous expression by René Descartes, “Cogito, ergo sum” (I think, therefore I am), we put forward one certainty: we exist. This existential certainty brings with it the fundamental question of why—why does something exist rather than nothing? To explore this, we must step beyond the material, linear view of reality and dive into deeper concepts that transcend time and space.

Why There Is Something Rather Than Nothing

The short answer is that existence is possible because the conditions for it to exist were proven and fulfilled in some eternal sense. But the long answer involves ideas outside our typical understanding of time, space, and physical laws. Nothingness may not truly exist as we perceive it because reality, in its totality, may not conform to the binary distinction between existence and non-existence.
If we explore the infinite, outside the limits of time, we reach the concept of infinite potential—the underlying field of pure possibility. In this sense, the question “Who created God?” becomes less relevant when we understand that God or the Source is not bound by the constraints of creation and time. God, as the infinite and eternal, doesn’t require a cause or a creator in the way things do within the temporal, finite world.

Infinite Potential and the Fractal Nature of Existence

A fractal is a never-ending pattern that repeats itself at every scale. Similarly, the idea that we are a fractal of God suggests that the structure of reality is self-similar on all levels, from the smallest atom to the vastest galaxy. Each piece of the universe, including us, mirrors the divine structure of the whole. This means that our consciousness, too, is an expression of the Divine Consciousness. Now, the dilemma of who created God often comes from our limited perception of time. Time is a construct within the universe, but God is beyond time. In a timeless state, where there is no past or future—just the eternal now—there is no beginning or end, no creation in the linear sense.

Zero and Infinity: The Intersection

When contemplating God and creation, we approach concepts like infinity and nothingness. In the context of infinity, the probability that an event will occur approaches 1 over an infinite time span. But if time itself doesn’t exist, the concepts of cause and effect break down. God, in this timeless state, exists as pure potential, unbound by temporal or physical limitations. It’s as if 0 (nothing) and ∞ (infinity) intersect, giving rise to the existence of all things. The infinite potential of God unfolds into the fractal nature of the universe, where we, as conscious beings, mirror that divine essence.

Beyond Time: An Eternal God

The idea of who created God becomes less of a paradox when we consider that the very concept of creation is tied to the linear progression of time. If God exists outside of time, then God simply is—uncreated, eternal, and ever-present. We, as conscious beings, are part of this eternal unfolding, a reflection of the divine whole.

From Potential to Reality

Ultimately, the question of creation leads us to explore beyond the physical and temporal constraints. Existence itself may be an expression of infinite potential, where the fractal nature of reality allows each piece to reflect the divine whole. In this view, God is not a being that was created but rather the underlying consciousness that permeates everything.
This understanding shifts the perspective from “Who created God?” to “God is the eternal field of consciousness, and we are fractal expressions of it.” Reality, in this sense, is not a question of why it exists but rather how the infinite unfolds into the finite, mirroring the divine at every level.
