    We are the universe..


    Example

    If you ask someone a question and they give you an answer that is a whole. A question without an answer is not a whole. A question = answer, and without that answer it isn't complete.

    Question + Answer = 1

    What I'm saying is that we are the universe.We are life, and if a piece goes missing it isn't complete. When somebody dies, somebody is born. It is a chain.

    Somebody argued that we are only pieces of the universe and that is semi-correct. In order to be pieces we have to be part and to be part we have to be in the universe; A part of the whole. So to put it simply we are the universe. We are one with everything, everything is one with us, we are linked into the whole. That's why there are so many problems; people hate, and we hate ourselves because we are whole.


    That is my philosophy. Thank you.

    I agree with most of what you're saying, although i think there's a lot more to be considered. I have to say your philosophy is one fundamental part of the world as it is. This all was revealed to me on a recent acid trip. You might be interested to read my report in the LSD sub forum. It contains a lot of similar ideas to the one you have.

    Emotion and human behaviour also play a part. In a certain way, we are the same people. Since we are the universe, a whole, than we are the same beings. Almost like an endless number of sequels. That is why the planet is in the shape it's in. People pollute the planet and hate others but in reality they are killing themselves and hating themselves.

    We are vagabonds on a journey through the universe... having our human experience at present. Some may repeat, others may transcend. It's not for us to know what the "truth" really is. Ultimately it is what we make of it and not what we decide it to be. Our quest is happiness... our biggest challenges are likely mastering control over anger and hate. Our potential is likely far beyond what any of us can possibly comprehend. The human form that we occupy presents some severe limitations to realizing that potential. Fortunately that form is impermanent and we'll be free from its constraints.

    I think we're like bacteria. Small, relatively uncomplicated organisms that make up a much greater organism. The organism that we belong to also makes up something much larger, and so on.

    The bacteria and single cells that are a part of or live off the human body also have entire universes living inside of them.And so on.

    Atoms are universes. Everything is a mysterious universe to something smaller.

    Think about bacteria that lives in our digestive tracts. They probably understand as much of the world they inhabit as we do our own universe.

    So in a sense I guess I agree? Except I don't really get the hate part you threw in there. Elaborate?

    Anger and hate run counter to our quest for happiness. they are toxic to who we really are... whatever that is.

    there is a whole lot more universe out there, then there is any reason for it to give a dam about us, but a whole lot more reason for us to give a dam about what we are doing to our own little corner of it.

    i'm sorry, but i have never observed a reality that was or is sapient centric.

    I feel that we are the universe because our minds are as vast as the universe. Also, we exist for the sole purpose of just watching the universe exist. Something cannot exist without having someone know it exist. So the universe put intelligent life throughout itself so that we can watch it exist and therefore exist.

    That's like cockroaches debating over nuclear physics, we will never truly understand it, but it's fun to try :)

    I heard that cockroach part somewhere before.

    Cosmoses of scale.

    The whole defines the part but the part does not define the whole.

    Perhaps what you mean to say is that we are one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively?

    humanity simply has too much collective ego, and there is no logical nor observable basis to support its doing so.

    nor is the NON-physical in any way likely to have anything to do with anything anything human thinks they know about it either.
