Life is an amazing work of art. It is the connectedness of everything. We are not separate at all. We are inextricably linked to everything else around us. Life is yoga, which means joining everything together. Life is a song of separateness sung in unison.
The universe, galaxies, solar systems, planets, and life on earth are all inextricably-linked in a deep togetherness in a deep embrace. In a deep love affair everything is caused by everything else. Our galaxy alone contains more than 300 billion stars. To compare it, our world’s population is 8 billion. Imagine 300 billion stars alone in the galaxy of which our single-star solar system is a part. There are 100 billion galaxies out there. The nearest Andromeda to us is larger than ours and has 1000 billion stars. Certainly, this questions the serendipity of our lives. Our earth birthed life. It could produce conditions that were just right for life because it was by chance born into a solar system with one star, the sun. It evolved into an orbiting planet that was neither too cold nor too hot. It was at the right distance from the sun to catalyse life.
If the events that led to the earth’s being were different just by less than 1%, the delicate balance of oxygen and carbon would not have occurred in life on the planet. Protons and neutrons had to be in the right proportions to stabilise the atom. The universe and the earth took billions of years to come to life. To support life on earth, a stable temperature and atmospheric content of high oxygen and low carbon dioxide were needed. The right balance of elements was also needed to cause an environment that causes water on earth. To cause water that has hydrogen and oxygen — the most delicate balance. To cause the earth would catalyse an environment of 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen and traces of carbon dioxide, methane and other gases.
The sun causes life on earth. The sun boils at 5.4 billion degrees at its core temperature, compared to the human body, which lives between 98.6 and 100 degrees. Environments in which living organisms live have co-evolved as a backlash to the evolution of living organisms. Life was supported on earth because the earth could regulate the temperature despite the volatility of the sun. The earth supported stable temperatures, water, and an atmosphere. The earth was able to manage as much heat as it could absorb and could stay between extremely hot and extremely cold temperatures to maintain homeostasis. Our bodies, like the earth, maintain a homeostasis of 98.6 to 100 degrees. The earth is also a living being like our body.
When a photon shone a light on a form that fed on carbon for the first time, one-celled algae was born. That algae utilised water to photosynthesize and remove excess carbon dioxide from the environment and release oxygen as a by-product about 3.5 billion years ago. Oxygen-metabolizing organisms and their environs came into being then. We owe our bodies to the one-celled organism. If you think you owe someone, it’s because you breathe. The one-celled that created oxygen is responsible for your breath. And you owe your breath to the sun, which is the cause of oxygen. And you owe it to the galaxy that caused the sun and the other galaxies that caused your galaxy. You owe it to the Big Bang type of occurrence. Everything is caused by everything else. Let’s turn inward. The human body, like the earth, regulates temperature, PH balance, oxygen, and acidity. The Earth regulates the acidity, or salinity, of the oceans by vaporising them and allowing them to fall as rain.
Because a supernova showered the earth with ferromagnetic elements, primarily iron, cobalt, and nickel, as well as elements heavier than iron, the earth can maintain stability for life. As a result, the earth developed a magnetic atmosphere — a magnetosphere — which prevents harmful and volatile electromagnetic waves from wreaking havoc on the planet. Ranging from below 1 Hertz to above billions of Hertz, electromagnetic waves (gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves (also microwave), travel at the speed of light. Light is also an electromagnetic wave. Power and light grow out of photons.
Our bodies, therefore, need a regular supply of elements heavier than iron, like copper, selenium, cobalt, zinc, iodine, etc. The same elements that were part of the supernova are part of our body. The earth emits energy from 0 to 30 hertz. Humans do emit energy from 0 to 30 hertz. The energy emitted by the earth is also the wavelength used by different organs to run. Our body has an energy body outside that is measured by science up to 15 feet into space. The energy body is made of waves connected to the body and, further, these waves are connected to electromagnetic waves of the earth and the sun.
Everything in life is, in fact, vibration and stardust. If you go inside the human body, you will find a metropolis of 100 trillion cells. An extremely large organisation working in unison. It performs 400 billion chemical reactions in a second at the speed of light inside. Photons in our brain travel at the speed of light, regulating all 100 trillion cells from a centralised processor. The human body is a fountain of energy flowing that is renewing all by itself. Our skin is replenished every 4 weeks. stomach in 5 days. The liver is all over in 5 months. The rods and cones of the retina regenerate in 48 hours bones in a year. The nervous system in 8 months about 98% of atoms are replaced each year. The entire body every cell of the body is renewed every 7 years. Cells are replenished every day. In a day, 10 to 20 billion cells die, and 10 to 20 billion new cells are born by splitting into two.
Everything in life is a vibration. You think you are only a body. You are not the body. When you walk on earth or grass without shoes, your body feels vibrations. Earth’s energy is transmitted to your feet. That is the life force. You are a life force. If you think you are a body, then where do you begin or end? Every cell has hundreds of mitochondria, which are also independent cells producing electrons. Do you end there? From 100 billion galaxies to the power of the cells, where do you end?
Man is a union of the cosmos, the earth, and the body-mind. Each of the elements of the cosmos is reflected in us. We are the cosmos. A cell is the entire earth, and the entire earth is a single cell. A drop has the whole ocean in it, and the ocean is held in a drop. The human body is an extremely large organisation of intelligent cells in eternity that has no beginning and no end. The vastness of the space outside is like the vastness that is inside us. It is made of vibrations. When a photon lands on a leaf, photosynthesis is carried out by vibrations that cause a chemical reaction to change the substance of the earth into something else.
Our senses are photon vibrations, as are sound and touch vibrations; we see through vibrations. And we are connected to the world through electromagnetic waves. That is our invisible body. Our organisation of 100 trillion cells is constructed of atoms, and an atom is 99.9999999999% nothing and.00000000001% matter. An atom is made of protons and neutrons, which are made of quarks, and the mass of a quark is 2% of the mass of a proton or neutron and 98% force. We don’t have a solid matter that we could say, “it’s where I begin.”
Each cell is divided into 200 to 300 mitochondria, which is a cell within a cell. They convert glucose and fatty acids into high-energy electrons for cells to work with. And it also does not end there. Mitochondria are like wet batteries. It has a battery, a combustible engine, and a fuel cell to create energy. The cells are interconnected to the membranes of all 100 trillion cells and are charged by the earth, sun, food, air, and water. So, where do you begin or end? It has no end outside. It has no end inside. It surely ends in nothingness. A no-thing-ness you are not a thing. You are connected to one thread. That one thread is something that is not beyond you like the vibration of a wave in the infinite sea of wavelengths. You will hear it with your ears. You see, not by your eyes. All cells are caused by vibrations. Cells are morphed by vibration.
Quantum physics also says life is a vibration. A wave dancing in the sea of vibrations Vibrating togetherness is the goal of life. There is no beginning or end. There is no other goal. To sing the song of separateness in unison and togetherness is what is rejoicing in the vastness of the ocean of your being. In togetherness, let’s chirp as crickets do. In togetherness, let’s fly in unison as birds do. Togetherness is the rhythm of life, the symphony of life, and the bliss of life. Togetherness is oceanic.
In togetherness, we are not separate because there is no separation. A wavelength cannot be separated from the spectrum. In togetherness, we are all one. In togetherness, we are all-inclusive. Life is inclusive. There is no separation. The stars, rivers, mountains, and you are not separate from you. Therefore, it is difficult to find where you end or begin.
We are all interdependent everything is caused by everything else. Our existence is interdependent because in the oneness of existence we exist. If you say that consciousness pervades all, it means that consciousness is the cause of all that has caused the universe. Science agrees that without an observer, the observation would not have been born. Becoming one with consciousness is being one with togetherness. Being one with the eternity of your being, you travel beyond the beginning and the end.
