Out of Chaos – The Primordial Void
Since the dawn of human thought, one question has haunted us: Where did it all begin?
Look across the myths of the world, and you will find a striking pattern. Before there was land, sky, or gods, there was chaos. A dark void. Endless waters. A cosmic egg. Out of this emptiness, creation was born.
The Myths of the Void
-
In the Rigveda of India, creation begins with a hymn of uncertainty—“Who knows whence this creation has arisen?”
-
The Babylonians told of Tiamat, a chaos dragon whose body became the heavens and the earth.
-
The Greeks spoke of Chaos giving birth to Gaia (Earth) and Eros (Love).
-
The Norse imagined the yawning gap of Ginnungagap, where fire and ice collided to spark life.
Different cultures, same story: before order, there was disorder. Before life, there was the void.
From Myth to Science
Modern science might use different language, but it echoes the same mystery.
-
The Big Bang began from a singularity—a point beyond time and space.
-
Quantum physics shows that even in a vacuum, “emptiness” is alive with fluctuations.
-
Chaos theory reveals hidden patterns in disorder, reminding us that randomness may be creative.
Like ancient myths, science does not erase mystery—it deepens it.
Why It Still Matters
The story of chaos is more than cosmology. It is a mirror of human life.
-
In moments of crisis, we face chaos.
-
From loss or failure, we find renewal.
-
Creativity itself begins in uncertainty, the “void” of imagination.
Chaos, then, is not the enemy of order—it is its partner. Out of chaos, new worlds are always born.
