What does space have to offer us as individuals?

 

Part II of II

...If we accept ourselves as being a piece of the Causative Force, we would have little choice but to acknowledge the environment as being the place through which the Causative Force travels.

 

The result of such a perception would require that we, as individuals, accept the environment as belonging to all others as well as ourselves.

 

The environment would be viewed as a sacred place having a specific function to the Causative Force and would need to be treated as such.

 

Accepting ourselves as a piece of the Causative Force would require that we, as individuals, no longer abuse, subjugate, dominate, take actions which produces personal gain at the expense of others, force ourselves and our ideas upon others or intimidate others.

 

These actions could no longer be tolerated.

 

We would now have some understanding of the reason why this was not acceptable behavior, because it was not being done to ‘someone’ but rather to ‘something,’ and that thing would be none other than the Causative Force Herself.

 

 

Elevating our status to the level of becoming a part of the Causative Force is not ‘sugar and spice and everything nice.’

 

Being given the status of the Causative Force is an awesome responsibility.

 

It requires us, as individuals, to set goals we know we cannot attain, spend our lives attempting to attain them, and then to find peace within ourselves knowing we did our best, even though we may not attain what we set out to do.

What does space have to offer us as individuals?

 

 

Part I of II

 

Space offers us not only the recognition of being a part of the Causative Force, but the awesome responsibility that goes along with such a position.

 

 

Accepting ourselves as existing within a universe which is located within space which is located within the Causative Force, forces us to reevaluate ourselves and what we are.

 

No longer can we look at ourselves as superior to others, for how could one piece of the Causative Force be worth more than another?  

 

Man, woman, black, yellow, physically handicapped, world Olympian, mentally retarded, intellectual, schizophrenic, mentally stable, mentally unstable, bashful, outgoing, short, tall, handsome, homely, rich, poor… what’s the difference?

 

A piece of the Causative Force is a piece of the Causative Force.

How does Homo- help us understand what life is?

 

Part II of II

...Present day theism, the drawing of a universe outside the Causative Force, leads to only one logical perception, a door must be opened to enter eternity.

 

And if a door to eternity can be opened, then a door to different types of eternity can be opened.

 

Heaven and hell become logical. Conflict, violence, and war begin over who will control the keys to the doors.

 

The drawing of a universe inside the Causative Force leads to only one logical perception; no door must be opened to enter eternity.

 

You already exist within eternity.

 

You become responsible for your own eternity.

 

Once leaving this universe through death, you have no place to go but into the arms of eternity.

 

This drawing, panentheism, frees all Homo sapiens from the tyranny of others.

 

Homo, man, appears to be the only life form on earth capable of thinking in terms of eternal life.

 

We are so sure of it; our whole history is filled with desperate actions intended to gain entrance into it.

 

Our history, the whole history of Homo sapiens, the ‘saint’ and ‘sinner’ mentality, should provide us with some sense of confidence that life is more than the physical; life, awareness, is eternal.

 

 

Modern day Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are immersed within the concept that the Causative Force is omnipresent, but that we are not in the Causative Force.

 

This contradictory concept is the cornerstone for power.

 

The ultimate form of power over Homo sapiens lies not with money but in control over the door to eternity. In the end, eternity holds significance to our genus and species – not money – for we believe life is eternal.

Part I of II

 

To say life is life is not enough. Life deserves to be defined, for life is the essence of us all.

 

Life is the role we play in the environment within which we are immersed.

 

 

If we, as Homo sapiens, are to define life, we have little option but to understand the environment of life.

 

To understand life, we must understand what life is immersed within.

 

A drawing is the easiest manner to discuss the concept of ‘immersion.’

 

A dot, you, exist in a circle, the universe.

 

Very few people would question this drawing.

 

What of the universe?

 

Continuing the drawing, one can put the circle inside a square representing the Causative Force or one can put the circle outside the square representing the Causative Force.
