I suspect that universal field will actually be the extra time dimension as you surmised and is suggested by duality in Vafa's work in geometric physics.
Thank you so very much for your kind words, Alamo-Girl! WRT the above, as you note I do suspect the same myself. Vafa has extraordinarily interesting things to say. People, go take a look!
Thanks so much for the link, A-G!

I'm so glad you are enjoying Vafa! His work is as exciting to me as Tegmark's, Grandpierre's and Penrose's - especially since he is confirming in geometric physics what you sensed ought to be there from your own meditation and considerable study.
