Is it not scary to be the universe, becoming conscious? Literally we are all the universe becoming conscious of itself...

i agree, i still after a decade check out b... one thing is for sure i am happy to of seen what forums like these have evolved into, i never realized that such a thing would happen 10 years ago, but seeing what it has become today and remembering what it once was, is pretty incredible... it leaves room for a lot of wonder upon what it will become, if there will even be such a thing in another decade..

>becoming
The universe is already conscious retard. I mean think about it. What makes you human and conscious? A massive network of matter in your skull. All matter carries conscious. Now imagine a being who's made of all matter and that's the universe. Now go watch something funny to calm down before you totally lose it

I'm the authority who sets the boundaries of "our" imaginations.

Look out for these things, Thot hatred, disloyalty hating, rich and elitist hatred, hatred for globalist agenda, hatred for flawed educational system, hatred for hollywood, hatred for actors in politics, hatred for politics, hatred towards police, and hatred towards asserting dominance, hatred for forced multi-culturalism.

You'll see these topics flaring up more than usual among commoners this year.
If you've seriously wronged someone I suggest you apologize.

i think i would of replied to this 10 years ago, maybe i just did not have the time, or care of.. 10 years ago with the help of b i goatsed chris crocker... was considered a hero for a few days on this board.. was fun lol

Actually, hundreds of millions if not billions of years have led to this moment of nothing important happening.

we are not the universe. The universe is the totality of everything that exists. We're infinitesimally tiny lumps of matter within the universe.

that makes sense yup. but it has only become conscious you know?? it has only been able to be conscious for so long during its vast growth, so perhaps consciousness is growing? i dunno, but together ( beings ) the more we talk about it i think the more can come out.. and i have lost it several times already... :'D

i agree to look out for that.. and i have day dreamed, even to help get myself to sleep think of things like tying up all the " bad " families ( richest, some that are tied to pedophile rings etc ) and torturing and what not.. but im not proud of that... for some reason the pyramid structure comes to mind.. what do you mean by " our " if i may?

There is no universe

I've realized that i'm too violent to carry my hatred alone and so you get it too so I don't feel so lonely and so that things can actually change. You know it in your heart to be true that we desire the same thing, and most all average people desire the same thing. The only way we ever achieve these things is by emotionally agreeing that they must be achieved together.

So I share my deep hatred with you and my deep discomforts until they are solved through necessity...

No one seemed to be doing it on their own until I showed up...

There is no U in inverse.

lol true.
yup. agreed, which makes it even more difficult to grasp the idea of " why me".. i know i am infinitesimally small in comparison to literally 99.9999% of everything else in the universe, but i still see what i see, i am on a planet revolving around a sun... i know that at this point i do not understand much, if anything at all... and that makes me wonder if there are higher dimensional beings, and if that is the case, am i merely a tiny receptor in one of their minds? i dunno..

what do you mean? or you just tryina troll :P

do you think that at one point, much like the big bang, " i " , " we " were just one little, lonely point? that exploded into vast bits, to perhaps not be " alone " anymore? we find love, and we find fear, but both can feel so good in certain contexts... makes me wonder how lonely " i " must of been... when did you show up if i may?

bamp.

because you're biological which is why you have senses, which is why you have a mind. The brain is more complex then any other object in the universe we currently know of. So its about complexity and not size. And there is also the web of causality thats not confined to the physical boundaries of your body. It stretches into the distant past and it involves systems much larger then your body. For instance we rely on the sun and the atmosphere at least as much as we rely on our organs, and we are caused by the entire evolutionary past of not just our species but all of our ancestral species

I mean that THERE IS NO SUCH FUCKING THING AS 'THE UNIVERSE'
It's just a catch all term for everything. The universe is not a thing, object, entity, whatever. It's a fucking word made up by humans to categorize shit. You're wasting your time thinking about it.

'91
It's possible we're all very alone inside. But somehow our unexpected emotions find us to keep us company.

Never have I seen someone with such a stupid opinion.

it could be an entity, we don't really know

There is no you and once one ventures into psychedelic experiences (not necessarily induced by exogenous molecules) the consciousness-thought relationship and the pathology of associating oneself with the ego and the thoughts becomes clear. It doesn't answer the questions but helps opening the potential of realization.

I think you would be very interested in classical psychedelics and meditation practice. Start by reading The Doors of Perception by Huxley.

We are way for the Cosmos to know itself.
- Carl Sagan

Hey man you gotta be careful chasing the answer to life. You probably won't be happy with what you find.
Also I think you have it backwards. The consciousness of the universe isn't growing, the consciousness of humanity is growing. Do parts of the whole know they are just parts? Or do simply exist without knowledge of the whole and only if the other parts? The universe has been conscious since the very beginning. Now humanity is slowing learning of its place in all this mess. We're like tiny neurons in the brain of the universe, and now we're realizing it

agreed..
i see what you mean, but i guess when i look up into the sky im thinking about the entirety.. i guess its easier to call it " the universe "..
'88 over here
makes sense..

I went outside the boundaries when I was a kid, I found a rabbit hole and it took me to somewhere where I didn't want to be but I knew what I was looking at was real..

I crawled under a pile of sticks when I was young, and through a small tunnel opened up a giant sanctuary of movements, a quire of angels if you could believe me...
I remember being afraid and confused and leaving as quickly as I came, I could only glance at that marvelous structure for a few seconds before breaking down for wanting my mommy.

Whoops, choir*

You don't have to look up at the night sky to see the Universe. It is literally all around and inside you at all times. Except maybe when you encounter a black hole.
Don't let all this romantic philosophy confuse you. We categorize things to further our understanding of those things, not to limit our understanding of those things.

I don't think that you do see what I mean. You would do well to better understand human consciousness before contemplating 'the universe'. Pic related

why??
like a higher dimensional being perhaps? that we are inside of? kind like bacteria inside of us?

ive done a few psychedelics, and have tried meditating a few times, i have not done so in a while though, but i find that i can calm my self down sometimes and really become clear-minded, in that moment it all makes a lot more sense.. i have not read that, although i have read a few books by a couple of good philos, i think i read one of huxleys books actually.. i have memory problems... 10~+ years ago i was taking xanax like it was candy... no bueno.. started having epilepsy cos of that, thankfully i have not had one in over 3 months... feels great, after each epilepsy its as if i wake up in a 2d world for a few minutes and it just takes a while to gain back complete consciousness, as for my memory that is baaaadd...
lovely..
yes! thats what i believe that we are tiny neurons in this vast brain.. and definitely am trying to be as open minded and accepting of whatever life means as a whole..

A controversial book from the 70s that isn't considered factual at all?

care to explain a bit more? i recall one dream if it was a dream from my earliest of childhood, and i suppose i was a crab or something that just been pushed onto shore by a wave, i was there laying on the sand, confused... as if i was one of the first creatures to touch / live on land, i can barely recall the dream though.. very interesting though to me..
you're right.. that makes total sense..
i agree.. im going to check that book out thanks

Omfg...

why is it controversial/not considered factual??

Because it upsets people

Here is why.
The Universe is simply name, that is true. But there are thousands of people who think about it on a daily basis for practical applications and because it is their field of work. Saying that we should not think about something which we cannot comprehend is stupid.
People throughout time have contemplated those things which are mysterious and now we have many technological wonders because of it.
Saying that the Universe doesn't exist is foolish beyond reason, you can literally see it everywhere. It IS every where.
We are made smarter as a species for adding a cognitive association with the entirety of existence. The mere fact that we can even have a conversation on such an ambiguous thing should be enough evidence to show anyone that thinking about the Universe is not only possible but it is a good thing which helps define us as more than a simple animal.

there is a greater conscious, somethig bigger, the one who controls it all, with the power to dominate, overpower, maintain, create and destroy, able to give proper orgasm to all women

Deep.. That's why cosmos is black

Ooohhh, what a spiritual thread! Humans are just so SPECIAL, even though nothing even remotely supernatural ever takes place. Have fun playing pretend.

the answers you seek can be revealed to you.
but as it is with answers, in the end they only raise more questions
da steh ich nun ich armer tor und bin so klug als wie zuvor

No... I don't know...
I thought I saw rows and rows of people, like balconies at an opera and they were all watching me. and it just went on and on, and a part of me knew exactly what it is but I didn't want to see it.

Kind of like this picture, but more angled upwards and they were in balconies.

That is special in its own way, and only true if by choice.

Also nobody needs your negativity and you will be separated from the herd.

It is a miracle that anything exists at all.

agreed...
and are we a part of this consciousness?
we are asking questions though how are we playing pretend?? don't you think the fact that we are ( i think therefor i am ) is supernatural?? or the fact that there is something? which brings up a question i really like how can something come from nothing..

It asserts that people had a drastic change in the way our brains worked a long time ago. Before that change we could not use introspection to view ourselves which means we had no consciousness until..well until ancient people started worshiping gods.
It's some serious nonsense that modern science has debunked quite thoroughly.

It stays in print because a lot of people buy into the idea of aliens or magic or gods coming to shake us from our non-concious existence. It's basically a very detailed conspiracy theory written by a semi-respectable psychologist.

We didn't have a concept of inside/outside for a long time. So... Imagine not even knowing what out is because you are always out.

Took you a while to summarize the wikipedia page, hm?

agreed...
damn. that is cool, im glad you experienced that, i hope it only brings you love in any way, don't let fear make it appear what it is not to be... i dunno what i mean by that to be honest lol
agreed

and they weren't all looking towards the center, they were looking the other direction towards me. Like looking down at me from invisible balconies. I still wonder if they watch.

Yeh dude, cause I don't care about fringe science bullshit.

thanks for the 411, i still find the idea interesting though but i have to side with you..
makes sense..

you think they are kind? er.. positive beings? ones who admire love etc?

It was nothing like my average fear, I can stand up the most horrifying things in my mind and soul. But I could never equalize this existential dread placed upon me by that experience.

It could be magical, amazing, a sign of great love. But i'm alone, mislead, grew up in the scammy era and have no lover or best friend.

So whatever it was never helped me convey my feelings, never helped me connect with people it never saved me from making mistakes.

It's nothing to me now. I don't like thinking about it because it makes me feel like I should have been acknowledged more or something and thats very vain feeling.

Yeah but all of that attention isn't warranted or wanted by anyone. They weren't mean, they were all welcoming and happy to see me... and be seen maybe...

different user, but had same kind of experience than what you describe once.
in my experience they were not good or bad, they were watching, and, betting. Betting on the outcome of life.
still wonder what was at odds.

i understand... well you have a friend in me :) thanks for sharing, what you have shared with me will forever have changed myself and the path of my life.

sweet.
whoa.

Go to bed OP, you're high.

>Is it not scary to be the universe, becoming conscious?
No, it isn't scary.
> Is it narcissistic to think you are the universe becoming conscious?
More accurately, you are a part of the universe that has become conscious.
>that you, your thought is in itself the entirety of the universe?
Solipsism please go.
>am i just your creation? or are all of you, and everything around me, my own creation?
>am i just one little receptor in a vast unimaginable higher dimensional beings mind?
No.
>how can something stem from nothing?
Show me an example of nothing.

Yeah betting... Discussing even.
Some could be seen as arguing against my existence or for it. But in this particular space and time they were all just happy to see me.

I didn't understand feeling important and sublime at the same time. As if I were a pig about to be slaughtered but they love their pet piggy... It was so beyond physical understanding and yet I was still physical and reacting with a physical mind and body.

Now this guy. This is the fuckin' guy.

Well thanks, maybe we'll meet someday then.

>be a part of the universe
>you are the universe
Awe gee naww really

i wish i was..
thanks. and thanks again for " show me an example of nothing " how the fuck did i not think of that lol
damn
awesome :)

thanks to all the replies this was fun. spread love not fear
