If you want to understand something in true essence, where would you propose to start?At the beginning, surely…?
Stands to reason, yet here we are, a hyper evolved species with the intellectual insight to question the meaning of our own selves and much to our dismay we seek answers in our mind, a latent event on the ladder of our time.
Our ancestors were in no doubt about our origins, they worshiped the Sun and how ironic it seems that we regard such practices today as the act of a primitive mind. Apparently we know better than these savage pagans, we worship a God that refuses to reveal himself outside of the conjecture of those who chose to endorse blind faith as a motif.
Let’s try our ancestral view on for a moment, what would life be on this planet without the Sun? Surely I don’t need to answer that question so let’s try this - would our planet even exist, were it not for a star going several times super nova, are we not, in fact, the children of the stars? It seems preposterous to adopt our own contrived notion, born out of our own latent anthropomorphic psychology over the facts as they are.
We are not incidental in the Universe, we are no more of a cosmic accident than the Cosmos itself, much as some neo-Darwinist might have it said otherwise. Look around you at the wonder of nature, nothing so intrinsically complex could have been seeded by pure random chance, I know this for a fact because I have been back to the beginning…
No, this is not idle arm chair speculation about the Big Bang, I am talking about the journey we are all capable of making, back to the deepest part your your self, something that can only ever be approached intellectually but never reached in mind because this is not a concept, it cannot be known as such.
Take a look at your hands, follow them to your feet, now feel your gaze sink into the ground beneath you, notice how you may sometimes feel separate from the ground but the truth is that you grew from the ground, just like every other organic being on this planet. Being human does not exclude you from the biosphere, much as some rather naive speculations might suggest. We are the children of the planet, the planet is the child of the stars and the stars of the Cosmos itself, everything is connected, you just have to feel it.
So where do I sign up, I hear you shout? The answer is simple, it’s already in you, in the matrix of yourself, your body is your heritage. Follow the blood cells in your veins and they will take you right back through time, to the place of your birth, don’t buy into the cheap thrills of your mind and all the pseudo-psychic nonsense being pedaled as a solution in today’s spiritual mess. The answer is in you, this is physical, this is the code in your DNA, the very language of space and time itself, follow your body, it will take you home….
