Our place in the universe
Let’s try to get a general view of our life on earth.
Let’s look at planet earth from another star. We can see the Milky Way in the distance. Whatever we can see is in the domain of ordinary matter and we know that ordinary matter represents only 5% of the universe.
We zoom in the Milky Way and find a solar system. We zoom in again and find a small planet. We zoom in again and find some beings. You cannot expect those little creatures to have a notion of time and space that would apply to the whole universe. They see time as a straight line with the past on one side and the future on the other. Time and space could be combined to make a spiral and they could not tell the difference. They only see a very small part of the curve. We found out later that they have a similar problem with their vision. It is limited between red and violet and this is a very small part of the curve.
​
It took a long time for Planet earth to become what it is today.
Everything started with the radiation from their sun. Without it, planet earth would be nothing more than a very cold piece of rock. Under the exposure to their sun for millions of years, a thin layer on the surface of earth got transformed into arable land. A few more million years and plants started growing on the arable land. That was only the beginning. Animals appeared that were eating the plants. The final purpose of all this preparation was to reach the level where the Homo sapiens can extract energy from their food and send it to their brain. They have now reached the limit between their material world and the immaterial world. They have a body that belongs to the material world and a soul that belongs to the immaterial. Their problem, today, is that what is most important in their life, such as, love, consciousness, harmony, does not have a shape, a weight, a color. It cannot be measured. Their soul penetrates their body like a seed penetrates the soil. They have reached a point where their body is not very well adapted to their life.
Human evolution is accelerating.
​
It seems that there is in every humans an assortment of little seeds that needed to be watered for a long time before they can hatch.
They first made machine to amplify the mechanical work that their frail body can produce. They made computers to speed up their thinking. Today they are making Artificial Intelligence to amplify what their brain can think.
Grand-parents could not imagine that within a few years we will have GPS, X rays, cell phones, MRI, computers and Artificial Intelligence. It is difficult to imagine what could happen in the next 200 years. Are we going to remember what happens during our sleep? Would it be possible that it is at night that we take the decisions that we implement the next day? Could our sleep be the main part of our life? Our grand-children may find a way to make an X ray of the soul like we make an X ray of the body. We will know instantly who a person really is without a need for explanations. Could we become conscious of what is happening on other planets? Could we travel without having to drag a body behind us wherever we go?
