This work proposes the Nested Cyclical Multiverse Model, an alternative cosmological framework in which universes evolve through continuous cycles of expansion, collapse, and bounce within a larger multiverse. The model replaces the Big Bang singularity with a nonsingular bounce driven by a composite core formed from black hole mergers across cycles. A constant multiverse background density provides a natural explanation for cosmic acceleration. The manuscript includes mathematical derivations, observational predictions, conceptual diagrams, and a philosophical discussion of consciousness as the universe becoming aware of itself.
