In many ways, it is my view that the entirety of existence, the universe and all its baggage, properties, rules and mysteries, are made of consciousness, awareness, of varying degrees and vibrations. We have nailed down most of the physics of creation, and this has told us that everything is energy, even matter is but slow-vibrating energy. The one thing that goes undiscovered and unaccounted for is consciousness. Strip everything else away and what is left? Take away my body and my mind and all that is left is my consciousness, and some would argue my soul, which I would argue is one and the same.
I see the physical universe as the external manifestation of God. And by God, I mean, an organism, like ourselves, that was once nothing and then came into existence and is spending its life growing sensory organs with which to explore its environment and to discover what it is and why it is. We are those sensory organs. In reply to the question, "What is the purpose of life?" Kilgore Trout once said, "To be the ears, eyes, and conscience of the creator of the universe, you fool." As our eyes and ears tell us about our world, we in turn send messages back.
I often must remind myself that my actions, my decisions, what I do, how I do it, everything I experience, is telling God what kind of being S/He is. With so many people lying, cheating, stealing, and killing, it is no wonder we have the kind of world we do. Is this what we want to tell God S/He is? Once I felt the pain and anguish of the world, of every war, of every murder throughout history as a massive rolling wave of ground up blood and bone and wondered what it meant. I think now I understand.
