A cosmological model mapping the Hindu trinity of Brahma (creation), Vishnu (preservation), and Shiva (destruction) onto the fundamental dynamics of the universe. It proposes that these are not deities but fundamental meta-laws: Brahma is the principle of symmetry breaking and inflationary expansion; Vishnu is the principle of stable structure formation (gravity, nuclear forces) and homeostasis; Shiva is the principle of entropy, quantum decoherence, and phase transitions. The universe is seen as a cyclic or simultaneous expression of all three, with local regions emphasizing one "aspect" (e.g., a supernova is Shiva-dominant, a stable star Vishnu-dominant, a quantum fluctuation Brahma-dominant). It suggests a universe that creates, sustains, and destroys itself at every scale.
Example: In a video game simulating universe-creation, you'd have three core sliders: Brahma-Gain (inflation rate, new particle generation), Vishnu-Stasis (force strength, structure preservation), and Shiva-Loss (entropy increase, decay rate). The Trimurti Hypothesis says our universe's specific "settings" for these three meta-parameters are what produce galaxies, life, and black holes. A black hole isn't just destruction; it's a Shiva event that may fuel Brahma events (white holes/ new universes) elsewhere, with Vishnu maintaining the balance of the multiversal cycle.
