Be Wise About Matter By Doctor Deo

1. "Matter" is such a human "mind" illusion. Science keeps looking for stuff, runs into CONSCIOUSNESS and patterns. There is more FORM than matter (Namarupa, as Vedanta teaches us. Thank you, India, or Bharath Desh).

2. We are patterns; LIFE in the Universe reveals patterns, on and off, life and death. 

3. Like waves in the ocean, we "appear" and "disappear." An individual wave has a crest and a trough, that arise SIMULTANEOUSLY, like our inside and outside. We cannot sustain our "uniqueness ... individuality."

4. But we have an essential ETERNITY, like the waves. Not the individual wave, but the WAVES will go on. Something in us - not matter - will go on.

Did Jesus assume the "human pattern" or form ... rather than duplicate or triplicate God? Reality is ONE, right?

God seems to delight in repetition. If you look at a field of daisies or snow flakes, at first glance they all look the same. However upon closer inspection, God has made each one unique. Is the uniqueness or the repetition the illusion?

You misunderstand me. The question in this context is not in search of an answer but rather a tool to cause you to contemplate. In our society where men are individualistic they forget their sameness. On the other hand they forget their uniqueness when they try to be like others.

Richard you will stump me yet. Tough question ... It's best to use computer graphics as a way to explain. We can take one bird and play around & make a forest of them with apps & programs. God delights in uploading & downloading data, Is the computer-generated lookalike REAL? Only in mind of creator who has the tools to have fun. The Trinity had fun with Creation; even Jesus was to come to fix it all since "before the foundation of the world." If u need Bible refs I could find them. shalom & THANX

ThanX Maureen, U probably hear that "stuff" in the universe, even BLACK HOLES - largest with greatest gravity measured - have "nothing". As I wrote b4, "NOTHING means no THING" not "nothing at al." What we call "nothing" is SPACE, the very canvas, or BACKGROUND on which the stars & galaxies are laid out. Not easy to grasp but your intuition will get you there & beyond. shalom shalOM
