Limitations

The naive believe that,
Earth is the only planet, with intelligent life.

Mortal minds just don’t process infinite knowledge well 
and in this way, it is limiting to growth.

However soul mind, that essence residing somewhere in 
knotty grey goo; can tour infinity forever.

Living too long in the physical plane
limits knowledge; 
something that soul mind prefers to avoid.  
Soul mind simply sees no limitations, 
when it’s on the red path.

Science is a product of the mortal brain and 
soul mind sees what science cannot, will not.  
Sciences naiveté’ halts real progress.

When mortal animals learn to absorb soul mind’s wisdom;
life will be paradise.
