the nature and form of the universe

i had a dream last night which concluded my recent rumination on the form of the universe. i have almost always seen the obvious analogy of an apparent larger scale of nature. galaxies are not for nothing, i thought as a child, etc...anyway i think the universe is one large being, which like every other BEING, started out in life as a very small being with a spark of energy to get it going.
everything in the being was not there at the begining.
everything that became the being was a complex set of events leading from a few simple ingredients to begin with. eventually the organism reached/s a level of self awareness at which point where it came from makes sense.
every being has a parent being, nothing evolves from nothing, everything has ancestry. the greater realm of nature has made universes before.

in the dream i saw that the universe was one being, the reason that psi, clairvoyance, precognition works is that everything is not only connected but shares a function in the organsim we call the universe. the dimensional aspects that quantum physics tries to articulate is analagous to the different layers of the greater realm that this creature lives within. If you took a needle and
pricked your heel the whole body is aware of it
(almost instantaneously) although the relative distance from each nerve ending to the brain is a long way in comparison to the size of the needles point, but everything in the body of the being is connected. the integrated nature of being is exactly how our universe operates.

where we are now is analgous to the creature's burgeoning conscious awareness of it's environment. like a baby we are aware of our immediate environment but understand nothing about the complexity and form of nature, global politics or how to build a machine. even as adults many struggle with these notions of interdependency in the local environment.

so the dream was very expansive, nothing new particularly but the dimensions were like layers of a being.

i suppose the part most fun in the dream was the re-iteration to my sleeping mind, which kind of knew i was asleep, is that as our universe is a being, it is not alone and it lives in a place, it has parentage, a purpose, will evolve, create its' own children.

when you look into a child's eyes GOD is looking back at you. i feel that this has a natural truth in that as abstract as the concept of GOD is for me, that the greater being is aware of our awareness and encourages us to participate in peeling back its'skin. it's sad that a history of patriarchy gave us all (a picture of God as a man of authority) this way, we grew up to respect our fathers and our insitutions upholding hegemony and denying the feminine spirit. this phase of humanity is under reconstruction. i would like to think of everything in the universe as part of it, no greater or lesser part is more equal, we are (in truth) one family of humanity within one family of life within one family of matter , atoms, we are all photonic substance. survive together or die alone that is the choice facing all of us.

we either choose to live in ignorance, let our planet inexorably move towards degradation, and treat others
with little or no regard (so that a few can do anything they please) and yes the rich DO tend to exploit others, directly or indirectly through an inability to feel the universal energy of oneness or we begin to understand that there is no division between any life, or matter for that matter (pardon the pun) and that everything is sacred, everything counts toward something.

ok everyone cannot have the same, but nature upholds and created our home over billions of years. we cannot destroy it all in 200 years so a few rich people can do as they please. responsibility comes with age. this is where the mindshift really begins, taking responsibility for ones own and collective actions.
