Question to Menas Kafatos:

Dear Menas,
There are many theories on the origin of the universe, none having a complete explanation. Is your book You Are the Universe a presentation of a new and complete theory of the universe?

Answer:

Of course not. If we claimed this, we would be at the same level as all these “smart” scientists who claim they know it all. It is not a complete theory, it is not even 1% or less, incomprehensibly small, complete. However, what we are presenting is a framework where to start putting in the right questions. You see, if you don’t ask the right question, how do you expect to get the right answer? What we are presenting is a framework of understanding our place in the universe. And that framework cannot leave us, all of us, out!

What came before the Big Bang? What does “before” mean when there was no time? Because according to Big Bang, time came about in the beginning of the universe. So this is another one of these questions which has no answer, within the ordinary way of thinking about being in space and time. From the point of view of expanded awareness, the answer is, what was “before” is as “now”.

Love,
Menas

Before the big bang was the unified theory.

If a unified theory is within consciousness,
Why then does it remain elusive?

Maybe,
Like a tree becomes a book
You can take the book from a tree
But you cannot take the tree from the book.

Consciousness can exclude a unified theory,
But a unified theory cannot exclude consciousness.

Dear Krista,

is not the book in consciousness? Is not the tree also in consciousness?
Are not all theories, even the theory of the Big Bang, in consciousness?
Is not the flow of time a concept in consciousness?
Is not consciousness that which is unified and from which all these separate experiences arise?

Krista,

Your poetry is vibrant and fun to read!

You wrote:

But you cannot take the tree from the book.

I notice in this discussion we talk about all things being in consciousness. I’d say that’s my outlook, too. While we can quote science and speak abstractly about the concept of oneness and all that is within…when you experience it, you know. If the tree ever existed, it still exists in consciousness, and its lines of energy are available. Seers can contact these energies. It’s called Psychometry. Encoded within the book maybe its origin in space-time, the tree…the exact tree.

I remember reading Stephen Hawking’s theory on Black Holes and that information is not destroyed when something travels into a Black Hole – as was once thought; rather, it is encoded in a 2-dimensional hologram. To me, it points to evidence that information is kept in the universe and not destroyed.

A little out there! :)- Tell me what insight comes to you!
Love,
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

Sent you a response but when I hit submit, Poof! It disappeared. Not sure if it is a copy and paste issue. If it should appear on your end let me know. If not, I will retype and send.

Much Love, Krista
Thanks for asking for my insight! Can’t wait to share.

[JenniferLParticipant Upvotes: 89 votes@jenniferl]

Hi Krista,

It looks like your original reply may have done a disappearing act after all – POOF! I am very interested in what you have to say. Please resend if you get the opportunity. Or perhaps it’s still in the Akashic, I’ll let you know if I find it there. ;P

With love and light,
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
Throwing it out there. Let me know your thoughts.

We can’t put a book back in a tree
Just like we can’t put a baby back into his mother and father
Not in the physical realm anyway

But in the spiritual realm
We can put the book back in the tree
And the baby back into his mother and father
But this would break the laws of nature
Time cannot go backwards
But that depends on how we look at it

The Akashic record to me is the tree of knowledge
It is like the mind of God, the universal mind
Everything there is to know is stored there
And nothing can be destroyed

And I will try to tell you how I see this
And how this came to me
Without using science or abstract thinking

I was watching TV one day
And they were talking about Edgar Cayce
I had never heard of him but was intrigued
So I went to the library and got some books on him
One of the books was about creation
I don’t remember if he mentioned the tree of knowledge
But I do remember thinking
Why did he put that tree in the garden
If he didn’t want them to eat from it
But knowing that they would

So I opened my Bible (KJV) and started leafing through it
For whatever reason,
I began reading in first book of Peter in the first chapter
And as I am reading
I started experiencing like tunnel vision
Like literally being drawn into the book
And as I was reading the 12th verse
All at once I was covered
But at the same time
I felt a rush moving upward inside my body

And when I say covered
It was not something I could see
But I felt it
The moment it hit my head,
And before it fully covered me down to my feet,
The rush moved upward inside me
It felt like I was enveloped
That was just the beginning
Of what I would come to understand

When I was looking in the book for the tree
I became the book, literally
That came from the tree
That came from the earth
That came from the universe
That came from consciousness
That came from myself
Who gave life to the book
That being Jesus Christ
Who lives in the book

Now everything I see is him
Everyone I see is him

I see myself in you
And I see Christ in you
But I can’t tell the difference
Between the three
For I am Christ
And you are me

My vision has been fulfilled
My life has been but a dream
Now I see
What my eyes cannot behold
Glory fills my vision
Christ has come in to his own

If she wouldn’t have eaten from that tree
We wouldn’t be here
No sin, no savior, no story
He put it there for our salvation
And it is happening now

Had she not eaten from the tree
Then she and her husband
And God and the serpent
Could have just lived happily ever after
In the garden

The exact tree is here now
In another form

I hope this makes sense

Love, Krista

Wow, Krista!

It sounds like you had a beautiful and amazing spiritual experience of Oneness in Him. Your poetry really brings it through with the kind of energy that says it all.

As spiritual beings, and as you may have also experienced, we’re timeless and nonlocal. From my experience so far, we can be shown matters on the “inner” planes that seem just as vivid and tangible as they might on the “outer” or earthly planes. Our physicalness is an energetic experience, as Dr. Chopra often says. So, anything can be revealed to us in just about any form you can think of – its energy – and, as energy, is what is behind all experiences. As we are discussing in You Are the Universe, that energy is YOU. 😉

I hope this shines light for you. Love to hear your thoughts.

In Oneness,
<3 Jennifer

Hi Jennifer

Absolutely!
Consciousness manifests in many forms
And we can see ourselves as energy.
All forms are from consciousness
As a way to see our self.
You are energy! A supernova!
And I can feel your bright light within me.

It is a joy to talk with you!
You help me to see my self more clearly!
I am so grateful for a forum like this

Much love, Krista

Dear Krista,

I have answered your question in the forum, “Reader’s Ask: Why Does a Unified Theory of Reality Remain Elusive?”

Thank you for the great question!

Love,
Deepak

[kristaParticipant Upvotes: 24 votes@krista]

Thanks Deepak! Much love, Krista

[Menas KafatosModerator Upvotes: 41 votes@menask]

The unified theory is that Consciousness is the ultimate Reality. This is the view that we develop in You Are the Universe. The Theory of Everything is not elusive. What is elusive is a purely physical Theory of everything.

[kristaParticipant Upvotes: 24 votes@krista]

Thanks Menas!

I will have to ponder “purely physical Theory of everything”

Much love, Krista

[kristaParticipant Upvotes: 24 votes@krista]

Hi Aurora,

Yes, yes, yes, absolutely! Thanks for the reality check! I needed that! Soooo maybe…

Everything and everybody who ever was, is or will be,
Even the mind,
Is in consciousness right now
Even though we can’t see it.

Before the big bang
Everything and everybody who ever was, is or will be
Existed in consciousness

If everything is removed from consciousness
Because nothing in consciousness is real
Then there is only consciousness
My true self
Surrounded by everything and everybody that came from me
The source of consciousness
Everything that ever was, is or will be

Maybe there was never a big bang
Maybe instead the self enters consciousness–itself
And the self ceases to exist
And there is only consciousness

Love, Krista

How very beautiful Krista! Thank you!
More poems please…

[kristaParticipant Upvotes: 24 votes@krista]

Aurora: Latin word for “dawn.” “Meteorologically, an aurora is the result of charged particles colliding, creating bright lights in the sky. An example of an aurora is when the sun just begins to rise. The definition of aurora is the goddess of the dawn in Roman mythology.” You are that! Good morning sunshine! Thank you so much for your kindness!

My master is like a drop of water
Who has the power to draw to him the entire sea
And when the sea reaches the drop
The drop becomes the sea
And the sea becomes the drop
I am my master
A drop in the sea of consciousness

Love, Krista

Hello bright light!

There is the seen and the unseen
Within what we see is the unseen

Tear it all down
And truth and love will stand alone
These two are one
And cannot be separated

These two alone live in consciousness

When these two come together in consciousness
Therein lies the glory

When we have truth and love
We have everything
They are the mother and father
Of the glory that followed

Love, Krista, Forever Devoted to Jesus Christ

Thank you so much dear Krista! How wonderful your poems! You are so kind to share your flow with us…
You seem to be a lover of artistic expression. Have you seen this question asked by Derek, and the answer Deepak gave?

You can see the full thread here.

Thanks Aurora!

He said it so well, “love and beauty are closer to truth than any other experience.” That is the truth. So to see that, we must be the truth! Got my book today! Happy Valentines Day love!
