What if the universe once, and forever, was one entity. It appears to have exploded, and we all seem to be parts to that once-upon-a-time entity. For me, it is only perspective that things seem, appear as separate entities. But actually, all of us items are just apparent fragments of the one timeless, spaceless whole
What if there was never a Big Band. What is changing is not the whirling universe around us, but only our own perspective, our own interpretation. The notion of an expanding universe is very recent , only “proven” or accepted within my lifetime. It is a notion based on observations linked to our sensory perception of the world, which provides us with very limited and personalized data.
What if the notion of whirling, whooshing galaxies is simply an artifact of our limited powers of sensation. It could simply be a notion, a projection and mere perception based on what we experience on earth. All the inputs from what appear from distant galaxies are filtered through our limited sensory organs. All the data takes on the form of sensory inputs.
All of our awareness of what is going on “out there” is based on very limited sensory awareness of what is happening now “down here.” What is changing is not the expanding. whirling universe but only our perception. Are we on the training moving away from the station, or is the station moving away from us?
As our consciousness, our awareness of the universe changes, so does our universe seem to change. What we see and experience is a reflection of our collective consciousness, based on some very sketchy inputs we think we see coming from the world surrounding our little planet. The sky we see is dramatically different from the sky my grandparents saw, and the generations before them.
Perhaps the universe we see out there is as much of an artifact as the canvas of moving stars and planets our ancestors once saw surrounding the earth.
What if I could see the same sky with the eyes of my children’s children? What would I see? Would I ever be able to see that one entity that now seems to be a vast mixture of separate parts?
