A Golden Mean

No man born of woman can remain isolated from the events occurring anywhere in Cosmos.
Our body is made up of elements borrowed from anywhere: if we are star children do not be surprised if we father generations that shall people other galaxies. It is in the fitness of things to be so. If we are the effect of violent upheavals elsewhere in Cosmos we shall also be the Cause.
Duality of life places us as cause and effect: we are the cause as we are effect too. Only that we are not both at the same time. Consider hypothalamus which controls autonomous nervous system and central nervous system. Both do not work at the same time. We are a cause and an effect but not at the same time. Hence the concept of duality of my life: we have a visible life and inner life just as we have self and an identity, soul and spirit and so on. A Golden Mean explains working out these two phases in a way we will make sense to others and above all to ourselves.

W12 D7- In Silence We Connect

Premise #4
“If we cannot exactly say if the space is expanding or may at some point reverse into a Big Crunch, First Cause must explain its motions in whichever direction. Every material form the earth or man, weird life forms in other planetary systems must be equally dependent on the selfsame Cause.”

Every part of our universe is like a wheel connected to one another by so many wheels small and large in a machine some of which are so minute that may escape detection to any casual enquiry. Time in nano seconds we may never experience nor shall we measure a cosmic year which takes our sun to make one complete revolution about the centre of the Galaxy. It runs about 220 million years. Our year linked to the Galactic year would show how exceedingly narrow range do we take in matters of cosmos; Yet our brief span of life is linked to it. We may leave the Sun to its galactic year if we may do much with one year. Our heartbeats in its regularity must measure however imperfectly the seemingly infinite pacings of celestial events. How we make sense of Oneness is somewhat similar.
Our heartbeats in its rhythm provide harmony to the melodic line of cosmos. Our mind and body as one, come in time with the music of the spheres. The rests, which we provide is the key. Part of Time.
‘ And the rest is silence,’ as the Bard of Avon would say.

W11 D2- A Contextual Problem

I shall further explain Cosmic Mind from its relevance to us in particular. Our mind is something more than our body and brain combined. ( Eyes look but in order to see they would require specific areas located in the brain. Similar the ears hear words but in order to understand once again the brain holds the key.) Our physical body is all wired, cavities and solids, colloids and fluids are part and parcel of the same reality that describes us. Without lungs or air to breathe what would we be? If you look closer we shall see we are connected and dependent on something else. It can go on and on.
In short our reality hangs on something else and so on. Some of us are susceptible to pollens in the air, and suffer hay fever: a sad reality that in turn owes to the reality of spring in the air. Seasons owe to the way our planet is tilted in terms of our sun. I could go on and on but it is not to my purpose to be a bore.
Can we like Canute of old draw a line to say,’ No more further. You intrude?’
2.
A material universe has invested its matter in life forms: What makes our form has left its thumbprints all over the universe that a life form cannot fail to notice it. A context. It gives us as well as aliens an orientation around which every problem may be solved. This context provides us certain clues to the nature of Oneness. The problem is how efficient are we to make it all work together?
We are used to solve our problems in a certain manner so in order to be used to space living in Mars or Jupiter we consider ‘terraforming’ as an option. By the same token an alien will be constrained to make the Earth adapt to its requirements in order to live here. Yes indeed! Just as we function with the Earth as our context, aliens will need their own context to relate to earth conditions. Aliens as well as the humans exhibit the characteristic of material make up.
A Martian is no more well positioned than man in the context of Oneness. A context is the vehicle for any life form to look closer to its set up.

W10 D6- Accidental Tourists, We

A Dog’s Life ©
One Hatshephut from galaxy CTA #769 ran out of fuel and where did it land? It landed right on Pensacola Dr. and on my neighbor’s garden. It was morning and the place just about starting up. Having got out of its spacecraft all in one piece it came and stood by the curb. It wondered seeing houses all in a row with well manicured lawns in front and fences, it came to life. I am a late sleeper so I was just about to hit the sack when I saw H. Hatsheputs as our canine folklore goes have some weird ideas. One of which from my direct experience must be like running out of gas while flying over Pensacola Drive.
Wowieee! I just found I could sort of understand it. Well, sleep could wait. I just smelled something exciting in the trail it left and Hatshephut saw me coming out wagging my tail. It just stood checking me out. It sort of clicked that I meant no harm. So it watched my neighbor walking his dog out. Hatshephut followed and when it saw the dog peeing in front of a bush it exclaimed, ” Just like back home!”
It must have struck the strange creature so hard that it came closer to say in a series of yells and growls that I could somewhat follow,” Back where I come form we speak to our chief just as it did.’
The accidental tourist did a somersault and asked conversationally, “Is it by any chance a Hatshephutian?”
“ No, a Labrador.”
“Whom it was talking to?”
“Nothing particular.” I replied wagging my tail.
” Ah in that case it must be beating about the bush.” After much prodding it explained, “ We Hateshephutians beat about the bush just like your Labrador but we let the chief get it, - every drop of it, between the eyes. Otherwise our chief may not quite follow our thoughts.”
He asked before he flew off,” What is your handle?”
“ Abram Heinz,” I said rather proudly,” Father of nations and there must be some 70 strains of mutts that owe to me.”
2.
National Research Council recently published “ The Limits of Organic Life in Planetary Systems” and has concluded that other forms of life different from those on earth are possible. Starfish, sequoias, salamanders and the rest of the earth’s residents are all surprisingly similar on the molecular scale.
Our senses of values are merely relevant to our planet.
Look at a nautilus shell and how it builds its shell is on the basis of self- similarity of matter. At first it makes a chamber filled with gas that shall act as buoy and goes on building series of chambers on the preceding one and so on. The first and the last chamber may show more variance than two adjoining chambers. Similarly we may assume values of a planet closer to our planet shall formulate values closer to us than one on the farthest reach of Cosmos.
(If we consider our universe we may as well consider multiverse also as a possibility. Of this point I shall come back later.)
We have our concept of truth and values that only explain our human condition. Similarly weird life forms also shall have their own values. Truth as we understand the term must be where all the values in multiverse agree. Is it a mathematical point; or is it Pure Spirit or Throne of Grace? Oneness of Things or God? Whatever any one may say about it shall remain inconclusive. We are speaking from our middle state, aren’t we?
