Out of One Comes Many
Starting with one
Giving rise to many.
Coming from a place
Where there wasn’t any.
Impossible to understand
How it came to be.
Everything about it
An impossibility.
From the inanimate
To consciousness.
To see, hear and touch
The more with less.
We’ve created religions
To try to understand.
Now science steps in
To lend a hand.
But to understand
Is beyond humanity.
No phony explanations.
Appreciate the majesty!
Opher – 11.4.2021
We live in an amazing infinite universe.
We do not know how it came into being.
We have consciousness. We see, hear, think, touch, smell and taste.
We do not know how.
We live and we die.
We find death frightening so we invented an afterlife.
We found the mysteries of the beginning of the universe, life and consciousness too bewildering. So we invented gods, heavens and paradise.
For some of us these inventions explain everything.
They explain nothing.
They are inventions.
We live in an amazing infinite universe.
We have consciousness.
It is a wonder.
That is enough.
