Explanations

Have you ever asked questions that you knew ahead of time couldn’t be answered? Seems illogical that in this day and age there’s still open questions about life, existence, and connection with all of the technologies and mathematics out there. 

I search for a better understanding of consciousness, what it is, how it has a link to our evolutionary origins, and why physics and mathematics can’t explain it in any simple way. If everything arises from consciousness, from fundamental awareness, does that not mean that life itself and our wonderment of how it all began is the unanswerable question of science? Perhaps we as humans aren’t really equipped to answer the riddle? Maybe there will be a point in the game of life where we do figure out the riddle of why we are here, why, rather than how life came into being and in that moment, the veil will get lifted and other forms of life, perhaps show up to congratulate us for continuing the search to understand the meaning of life.  

“Don’t you believe in God?” as a question that might somehow answer the question of creation isn’t necessary. When you understand evolution, even a little bit, when you understand natural selection, it becomes unnecessary according to scientists, to have a God or creator at all. Yet, having some “higher power” that is what connects me to others, and nature to everything. Self-assembly seems constant and while it’s complex, it’s also simple. Natural selection - what works, what holds shape will ultimately be able to build more complex systems. 

Even with that knowing, I still believe there’s more to the meaning of life, there’s something more after life, there’s something there that beholds the infinite energy of the Universe, God, or whatever you want to call it.
