Get the Problem mug.The Extraphysical Conservation Problem refers to the theoretical difficulty of extending classical conservation laws (energy, momentum, information, etc.) beyond the physical universe into hypothetical extraphysical domains such as multiverses, higher dimensions, probability spaces, or non-material realms. While physics assumes conservation holds within a closed system, this problem questions what happens when the “system” includes parallel universes, branching timelines, or non-physical layers of reality. It asks whether conservation laws still apply globally, whether they are redistributed across realities, or whether conservation itself breaks down outside spacetime. The problem is central to speculative cosmology, multiverse theory, and extraphysical metaphysics.
Extraphysical Conservation Problem — Example
Imagine a multiverse experiment where energy appears to vanish from our universe during a quantum event. Later, another universe shows an unexplained energy surge at the exact same probabilistic moment. Locally, conservation seems violated in both universes, but globally—across the multiverse—the total energy may remain conserved. The problem is that observers inside only one universe cannot verify whether conservation holds extraphysically or is merely broken beyond their measurement horizon.

Get the Extraphysical Conservation Problem mug.The Extraphysical Thermodynamics Problem examines whether thermodynamic principles—especially entropy, irreversibility, and equilibrium—apply beyond conventional physical reality. If higher dimensions, probability universes, or extraphysical realms exist, it is unclear whether entropy increases there, resets, transfers between universes, or behaves in non-classical ways. This problem challenges the assumption that the arrow of time and heat death are universal features of all realities. It raises questions about whether extraphysical domains allow entropy leakage, entropy inversion, or entropy-free states, potentially enabling phenomena that appear impossible under standard thermodynamics within a single universe.
Extraphysical Thermodynamics Problem — Example
Suppose one universe reaches heat death while another nearby universe (with similar physical laws) appears to reset into a low-entropy state. If entropy can be transferred or diluted across universes, then the second law of thermodynamics may only apply locally. This raises the question of whether entropy “leaks” into extraphysical realms or if some universes act as entropy sinks for others.

Get the Extraphysical Thermodynamics Problem mug.The Hard Problem of Spirituality and Metaphysics concerns the difficulty of explaining subjective spiritual experiences, metaphysical meaning, and existential significance using objective, physical descriptions. Similar to the hard problem of consciousness, it asks why inner experiences of transcendence, purpose, or “the sacred” exist at all, and whether they correspond to real structures beyond the physical world. The problem challenges reductionist explanations, suggesting that spiritual phenomena may involve extraphysical dimensions, emergent metaphysical properties, or irreducible aspects of reality that resist empirical measurement.
Hard Problem of Spirituality and Metaphysics — Example
Two individuals undergo near-identical neurological states, yet one experiences a profound sense of transcendence while the other does not. No physical measurement explains the difference. The hard problem arises in explaining why spiritual meaning emerges subjectively and whether such experiences correspond to real metaphysical structures rather than being purely neurological artifacts.
