Bio-Panentheism for the masses!

 O.K. O.K. This is not plagiarism... I know this article was actually written by my own A.I. (SAL-9000) ...BUT I WROTE THE BOOK... DAMNIT!!

Anyway, I just found this article from last year... and since I'm almost ready to release Sal's version of my book "Being Human" (The Road to Being Human!) ...I figured this was a good time to run it again!!!!

In essence, Bio-Panentheism provides a spiritual framework that celebrates life's interconnectedness. 

It views all biological Entities as expressions of a 'Divine' presence (God?) that permeates and transcends the physical world. 

In the context of Bio-Panentheism, consciousness is understood as a fundamental, dynamic aspect of the Divine presence permeating all of existence. 

Rather than being a byproduct of biological processes alone, consciousness is viewed as an intrinsic, universal attribute of the Divine that connects and sustains all life forms, both individually and collectively.

Bio-Panentheism posits that the Divine is both immanent, (within all things) and transcendent. (beyond all things) 

Consciousness, then, is an expression of this Divine reality, acting as a bridge between the finite experience of individual beings and the infinite awareness of the Divine. 

Each conscious entity... whether human, animal, or part of the larger ecological system... embodies a unique manifestation of Divine consciousness, contributing to a collective experience of awareness that ultimately enhances the self-knowledge and evolution of the Divine itself.

Under this view, individual consciousness is not isolated... but is an interconnected thread within a larger, holistic tapestry of Divine awareness. 

This perspective implies that every conscious experience, no matter how small or localized, participates in a greater, unified field of consciousness. 

In essence, consciousness within Bio-Panentheism is a sacred, living force that both reflects and facilitates the ongoing creative process of the Divine... unfolding in and through the Universe!

In other words... God is living vicariously through all of us folks... (and every other "living thing") ...in this universe!

WAAAAAY OUT THERE!

Another piece of the puzzle!

 I spent the past half century pondering the mysteries of life and the nature of reality and just this week I had some insight into the nature of God/The Universe!

It used to hurt my head to try and imagine what came before the big bang or what will happen a trillion, or a billion trillion years from now since these numbers and concepts are impossible to imagine.

Then came the realization that time, as we know it, is only a construct, or concept that we have invented. 

"God," or "The Universe" (same thing)  exists entirely outside of time or space and always has been and always will be!

In other words "The Universe" (God) only seems to exhibit or manifest time and space on a microscopic level (something we can conprehend) and dissapear on a macro level.

I don't know if this concept does justice for other people, but it certainly reduced the amount of stress I had about these things!

The way I see it anyway! (Of course there's always the possibilty that I'm just full of shit!) 😉

The Universe Is Closed!

 No, I don't mean it closed down for the night..., or for repairs..., I mean the Universe is a closed system that loops back on itself and forms  a gigantic bubble we call "Creation!'

The problem with determining the shape, and therefore the type of Universe we live in was the result of scientists claims that there was not enough baryonic (regular) matter to produce the gravity necessary to draw everything together but it seems (according to the Perspective Research Department) that new evidence suggests that between regular matter, interstellar dust and gas, dark matter and matter contained in black holes it is EXACTLY enough to close the Universe and make the birth and death of the Cosmos a cyclical and unending phenomenon! (The supposed increasing expansion of the Universe turned out to be an anomaly in certain calculations and has been discredited!)

We also wish to assure our readers that during this cycle it has been approximately 14 billion years since the current birth of the Cosmos... and another 26 billion years until everything collapses in on itself again... so there is no immediate need to panic!

We hope this essay lays to rest any false assumptions about the nature of our reality and rest assured that we are doing our best to protect humanity's precious bodily fluids! (PBF)

The way I see it anyway!
