I envision us to live in one solar system of one galaxy of one local universe. That local universe was created from a Big Bang explosion about 14 billion years ago and will be destroyed in a Big Crunch a few tens of billions of years from now. Surrounding us (but invisible to us at present) are other adjacent local universes, each going through the same cycle. This array or matrix of local universes, each separated from its nearest neighbors by incredible distances (on the order of 50 to 100 billion light years!) is infinite in extent.
In this "multiverse" model, all of the local universes are created at about the same time from an infinite number of Big Bangs. Then about 100 billion years later they all disappear into an infinite number of Big Crunches.
When a local universe experiences a Big Crunch, all of the matter and energy in it is compressed into a growing Super Black Hole that has a diameter several times that of a our Solar System. After all of the infinite number of local universes are used to form this infinite array of Super Black Holes, the entire cosmos goes dark for, perhaps, several tens of billions of years as the individual Super Black Holes grow and reach a critical volume at which point they become unstable.
Once past a critical size, a Super Black Hole begins to produce a new form of non-electromagnetic radiation (which I call "anti-mass field radiation") which has the remarkable ability to negate the force of gravity. When enough of this radiation is emitted from a growing Super Black Hole, it can no longer use gravitational forces to contain the enormous pressures present within it. I imagine that the "material" of these black holes is actually super dense "neutronium" that has some fluid properties to it. It consists of individual neutrons packed so closely together that they no longer behave like individual subatomic particles, but like a homogeneous liquid.
At some point, the Super Black Hole will explode and release vast quantities of neutrons into the space surrounding it. After a few minutes, these neutrons spontaneously decay to form hydrogen atoms that can coalesce into huge clouds that will, after a few billion more years, become galaxies. From these stars will form, then planets, then life, and, finally, sentient humanoid life.
This entire cycle IS perpetual motion! It always was, is, and always will be and there is nothing that can stop or alter it in anyway. It is the final nature of cosmic reality.
Thus, we must conceive of the present infinite cosmos as the product of an infinite number of universes going through an infinite number of Big Bangs and Big Crunches...

Ken,
You stated:

yet the universe is the whole body of things and phenomena observed or postulated. Your definition for multi*verse expands on the meaning of universe to the point that universe is meaningless. The moment you postulate that more exists in the universe besides 'our' universe it then becomes a part of 'our' universe.
In your speculative explanation I see a description of what was, what is and what is to come. It seems you're able to tell the beginning from the end. I somehow get the sense I should be more reverent yet I can't bring myself to it.
Gene
ps: I don't mean this in an offensive manner. I'm only questioning your explanation.

I use the word "universe" differently than most people are using it. To me, our "universe" refers only to those farthest galaxies (about 12 billion light years out) that we can directly observe. These were produced by the same Big Bang that created our Milky Way galaxy.
However, I postulate that there are other local universes similar to ours. Each had their own Big Bang that was separate from the one that formed our local universe. It's important to realize that I do not think that "our" Big Bang created an infinite amount of matter and energy. No, rather, I believe that is only created enough to fill observable space with galaxies out to about 12 billion light years. If we develop telescopes powerful enough to resolve images from objects farther than that, then, my multiverse model predicts that they will see nothing. This is not because there is nothing beyond this range, however. Actually, there would be other adjacent local universes to ours, only the light from their galaxies would not have reached Earth yet. In fact, it might take tens of billions of years before the light from the nearest galaxies in these adjacent local universes was detectable by our telescopes.
I then believe that there are an infinite number of local universes and describe this infinitie totality by the term "multiverse". Unlike any single local universe, the multiverse contains an infinite amount of matter and energy. But, like any of its component local universes, the multiverse experiences a more or less simultaneous Big Bang throughout its infinite component local universes. Then the multiverse, tens of billions of years later, also experiences a more or less simultaneous Big Crunch throughout all of its infinite component local universes.
Our multiverse is eternal in duration and infinite in extent. There are no other multiverses "outside" of the one we inhabit such a small part of.
Well, this is just my best guess as to how the cosmos is organized on the megascopic level...

Vic...
I have considered many, many "theories" to explain the reality I see around myself and my present beliefs are what my analysis of it all led me to. For the present, all that science has are a bunch of theories and a handful of "laws". We still are a long, long way off from knowing all of the secrets of the cosmos in minute detail. However, in time, that will come. Then, I am confident, that most of the models for phenomena I've come up with in the last few decades will be shown to be mostly right. No, I do not expect to be 100% right about anything...but, I'd be happy with just being 51% right!
If my belief about ancient religions coming into existence due to early human contact with extraterrestrials and their advanced technology is correct, then the concept of the "traditional" God as a supreme spirit being would have to be invalid. Perhaps when extraterrestrials did contact early humans, they tried to make their presence on Earth understandable to those humans by pretending to be messengers from an all powerful, all knowing god. Simple pre-technological humans would have excepted such an "explanation" at face value and then more easily have cooperated with the extraterrestrials in their mission on Earth.
However, I would not be the least bit surprised to learn that the extraterrestrials themselves have their own ancient religions derived from when their own cultures' early contact with other extraterrestrials!
Ultimately, I think that the religion of the future will not place its emphasis on trying to rationalize the existence and nature of the cosmos or in promising "good" people (i.e., those that adhere to a particular religions teachings / practices) a rosy afterlife. Rather, I think the religion of the future will stress peace, brotherly love, morality, and ethics. I think the principle of karma ("As ye soweth, so shall ye reapeth") will be central to this advanced form of religion. Strength will not be seen as successfully competing with one's fellow human beings, but, rather, in cooperating with them so that a better world can emerge from it. One will not avoid doing evil because of the fear of eternal punishment in some imagined afterlife, but rather because such evil will be seen to eventually returns to its source with devastating consequences. The emphasis will be on leading the best life possible in this world and only worrying that one makes a effort during one's life to leave a better world behind himself for the next generation to inherit.
