Are we the same guy/girl/thing?

It's the explanation for all of this that makes the most sense to me. Call us God, or whatever you'd like, but we're the same guy/girl/it that's taken on something like billions of different forms. For what reason? So we don't get bored?

What else can we do except be a diverse and constantly changing physical reality?

If I were a lonely God, what else could I do to occupy my time and excite myself?

And at the end, maybe it's everyone understanding this finally that causes us to blip out or whatever. Maybe then we just hit the reset button on the cosmic NES and begin back as the single cell organism, and maybe it goes back further than that, to the big bang.

Even in writing this I realized it's probably not that simple, I mean we're just the earth so why would our end, our 2012 or whanever, mean everything to the rest of the vast universe? Is the earth operating like a contained space ship in space, under it's own time cycle, where we reach an end and then experience it all over from the beginning, while the rest of the unvierse will see us as gone? Is there a separate "God" (collective mind) for each planet? Is each collective mind-God just a small corner of the entire universal mind?

Are we operating under our own personal orbits in time/space so that when we die, do we just start over and live our lives again, except for a clean wipe of memory, and that keeps it fresh? Maybe we do learn a little each time, so we can get a bit further, like you learn from the mistakes you make in a video game.

Or maybe it's the classical interpretation of reincarnation and you move on to other bodies, other lives, and when you get to the end and reach this blissful life of oneness you can just go back and start as an ant again because eventually you actually want to suffer and be confused, and live the exciting and dangerous life of an ignorant, separate organism?

I don't think I really want a solid, definitive answer, but this kind of wondering takes up a lot of my time these days, and I don't think I'm alone there, especially not on hipforums.

Anyway happy holidays to everyone, and blessings and love to you all!

 

I dont see why realizing eternity has to have anything to do with manipulation of the physical?

 

A: maybe

 

mushrooms, dmt, acid, salvia, etc.....

 

What I meant, is that if we collectivley touched eternity, that physical universe would not be reset. Like at the end of the movie 2001, the universe gave birth to us in the physical, not the other way around.

 

Sounds like sticking your own finger in your butt, but i think i understand your curiosity.

Cheers, to understanding. Or overstanding, if that's your thing. :cheers2:

 

overstand Ikon the Hologram nigga :cheers2:

 

To OP I don't even trip off it anymore because, life on this world has ended before, people have been ended, the same way we will in 2012 if it is to happen, and the chances are we will be back again, if not here then somewhere in another body, another cycle of life and the main thing is to be the positive force in this universe over all other soulful things, i.e. Mother Earth.

 

Have you ever, in meditation, or other, comprehend by operating multiple personalities in your head? Like you have multiple people going through scenarios, and your analyzing those scenarios to figure out some other purpose?

Thats what we are in God's head. Only the energy in God's head isn't just some transient pulses of energy in the imagination. In God's head the energy is physical formation, the energy we are made out of. We are all doing this so that the source of our consciousness can realize something new by collectively observing us.

 

Lol, I wouldn't attribute loneliness to That, and especially not loneliness in it's "reasons" for creation.

Well now you're just back to subdividing, sure there might be a distinct god-brain for every quantum particle in the universe, or you can just talk about it in aggregate as the god-brain. i think the latter is much easier. Does your hand have a different brain than your eye?

 

I meant it as if physical reality is spiritual, there is no distinction, because physical reality is just the theatre that God is playing on, and every particle in every atom and every atom in every molecule, every molecule in every cell is just how God is organized in all these seemingly differentiated forms. I'm just trying to guess what would happen if everything ceased to be entangled in physical form. Maybe we'd just keep going on living what we are now, but changed. Maybe it really would be time for the lions and the lambs to hang out.

I've never seen 2001, except for the opening scene, but maybe it's something I have the maturity to really appreciate now.

 

Understandable, except I don't see God as having a head, and I don't see God as needing us to think to gain realization. That could be because I believe everything is real in every scenario because everyone sees the same thing from a different point of view so therefore anything can be possible in regards to perspective. When I am focused enough on not me then yes I do try to see out of others points of view, but that takes focus and a will to do so, and for the most part I just get stuck on trying to perpetrate the love that radiates from a Godly starting point.

 

you just made me spill my beer

 

i have no idea what your talking about.

 

We are all taste buds on the cosmic tongue interpreting this existence to the electric meatwad.

 

God is the cosmos and everything in the cosmos. There are billions of universes, think BIG! The great part is absolutly everything is connected.

 

ok, ok. I'm just throwin' this out there. If the "god" revealed by acid is infinite and exists outside of time, then maybe the universe is infinite - meaning you can keep travelling through space in any direction and never each an "end", and then also, maybe time is infinite as well, no beginning and no end, and if u guys can dig this, what happened in the past, and what's happening now, and what will happen at any point in the future is happening "now" - it's all happening at once, in a way. And what's the next phase in our evolution? How do those beings who are further evolved perceive/what's their consciousness like? And after we die, our energy melts back into eternity but we lose our consciousness in our current body. Then what? Does our specific soul go into another body? Or does it all blend with the rest? And yeah, how does this collective consciousness thing work? Crazy. I wonder. Do bigger, purer doses answer these questions?

 

i dunno i believe in intelectual design... but if u think about it its perty crazy... it seems like "God" was curious and he made every single animal like a painting.. all unique but with like pieces and then he takes pieces and parts from whats hes made and makes a new creation... like the platypus.. or us? its weird how most animals have tongues... veins.. blue blood when oxyginated... fur? eyes and a nose... and brain! some animals are just simpler tho.. i dunno theres more to it.. but its awesome... were all connected.. = )
