Abstract

We propose a reformulation of cosmological dynamics where the fundamental parameter of evolution is not time, but energy. Rejecting the concept of a static universe, we posit that the cosmos is a highly dynamic Quantum Fluid Bubble driven by internal energy transformation processes analogous to biological metabolism. Just as a biological organism evolves from birth to death through energy consumption and cellular reorganizationnot by flowing through an abstract dimension of timethe universe evolves via the redistribution of its vacuum energy density. By adopting the Logarithmic Schrödinger Equation (LogSE), we demonstrate that the "arrow of time" is physically identical to the "gradient of energy dissipation." In this framework, the Hamiltonian constraint implies that the total energy drives state variations directly. We re-derive the expansion of the universe as a relaxation process of the superfluid’s chemical potential, providing a purely energetic explanation for cosmic history without invoking an external temporal background.
