The Universe and You

2015-09-13 at 8:11 AM UTCWe are part of this universe; we are in this universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts, is that the universe is in us.
The molecules that make up your body and the atoms that construct the molecules are traceable to the centers of high mass stars that long ago exploded their chemically rich guts into the galaxy. We are all connected to each other biologically, to the Earth chemically and to the rest of the Universe atomically. We are living within the universe, and the universe is living within us.
If you go off very far into a forest and get very quiet, you'll come to understand that you're connected with everything. Things are as they are. Looking out into the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.

Also consider the amount of "universe" inside an individual. It is miniscule compared to the amount of "universe" outside that individual. So unless you have something new to say or at least arent going to rehash old bullshit that has already been reveled by the great sages, please, shut the fuck up faggot. -
2015-09-13 at 3:45 PM UTCConsider how much air is not inside your lungs right now. That doesn't mean there isn't air inside of you. Nothing said in the OP is incorrect. The good thing about science is that it's true whether you agree with it or not. So, do you have a legitimate reason to be calling this bullshit, or do you just not like the idea of being connected to everything else?

You don't need to go to a forest. But it can help sometimes to feel closer to nature. -

Because empty beer cans. -

Because empty beer cans.
If I go out to the forest to appreciate nature there's gonna be some empty beer cans there as well. There's no avoiding it. -

He didn't say anything in OP was incorrect, he said it was tedious and unoriginal, which it is. What does it matter if we're stardust or whatever? Why is the interesting and why should we care? -

Because mannnnnnn we're all breathing the same molecules mannnn. It's like we're the same person because you've probably breathed the same things I have like we've swapped particles and so we're like on the same plane mannnnn and your thoughts are basically my thoughts mannnnn if you'd just go to the forest you'd get it. -

2015-09-13 at 10:53 PM UTCThe molecules that we consist of were much more recently the shit of thousands of animals and humans than stars. From this I conlude everything living = shit, and this is obviously science here so it's true whether or not you believe it.

Why does anything matter? What is the purpose of all the stars and galaxies in the universe?
The good thing about this is the rest of the universe doesn't care about being original. The universe doesn't care if you're interested in it or understand your connection to it, or if you would rather talk about how drunk you got last night. The fact that you are connected to everything doesn't change. -

Not only are we in the universe, the universe is in us. I don't know of any deeper spiritual feeling than what that brings upon me.

Tolle also said, "You are this universe experiencing itself, very briefly, as as a human.". -
2015-09-28 at 5:11 AM UTCthat's some deep shit right there, rodent.
but why are there so many of us? one time isn't enough for the universe?
maybe the universe really, really likes to eat,fuck, sleep and do drugs, millions of times over for dozens of thousands of years.

It seems to be the case.
