Why are we here? What is the true nature of reality? This article provides a bold answer to an ancient question: Why is there anything at all? Everything is relative. Reality is utterly self-defining and self-supporting.

All things come from one great Source: a single universal, undefinable Oneness that is absolutely whole and complete. Beyond the duality of existence and non-existence, there is a universal Oneness! Everything depends on the perspective of the observer. There is one substance that comprises all of nature: space.
Everything is made of some variation of this universal Oneness which is actually the very same thing as the space that exists everywhere. Light would not exist if this fact were not true. There has to be a “something” in space for light to emit through. Most astronomers know that the whole universe is expanding in every direction and that the further away a celestial object is from where we are, the faster it will appear to be receding. This rate of recession can be measured through the Doppler effect. If it were possible for objects to move away from us at the speed of light they would have an infinite redshift and appear invisible. Its rate of time or movement of energy from our viewpoint would also be equally slowed down to a complete stand-still or practically non-existent. The point where this would happen would be called an “event horizon” where all time and energy seems to completely stop. If an entire galaxy disappeared over this “event horizon” the inhabitants of that world would notice nothing except that our galaxy from their viewpoint would also seem to vanish into the nothingness of a similar event horizon. Depending entirely on the perspective (in this case the relative rate of motion) of the viewer it is possible for ENTIRE worlds to vanish and reappear without any actual changes taking place except through changes in perspective. All rates of speed, motion and energy in creation is 100% relative to the observer. If the observer had a relatively low rate of energy, then the rest of creation would appear to have a higher rate of energy. If the observer had in relation to the rest of existence an extremely high rate of energy, then the rest of the universe would appear very dark and cold. All apparent motion through space is entirely dependent on reference to some other object or group of objects (such as the rest of objects in the universe) in space. Inside a perfect, infinitely huge vacuum (the universe is almost like this) it would be impossible to determine the actual path of two objects flying past each other in deep space — whether or not one is actually stationary and the other moving past or is the other standing still with the “stationary” object moving past? Or are both moving? Motion is relative, energy is relative and therefore time is relative and entirely dependent on the perspective of the observer. The energy level of the observer’s perspective seems to be the actual source of energy for all phenomena. The movement of the observer’s perspective is perhaps the ultimate source of all movement. One’s level of energy is inversely related to the rate of time going by for the rest of the observed universe. If one’s level of energy somehow became infinite (or reached the speed of light) all the rest of creation from that person’s perspective would seem to vanish into a state of “frozen time” where time comes to a complete halt! Everything in reality and all definitions are relative to each other; there are no absolutes. The perspective of the observer or how the universal Oneness is observed seems to be the key to how the whole system of phenomena comes about. In reality there is only an everlasting, undivided, ever-present |
Oneness or universal “space” beyond all duality of existence verses nonexistence, light and dark, etc. Massive amounts of energy can be observed bursting out of that seemingly endless “nothingness” the moment one’s perspective (viewpoint) comes from within an infinitesimally small part of that vast Oneness, making one’s sensitivity infinite.
The true nature of that universal “nothingness” is actually a universal Oneness which from any limited viewpoint, appears no longer as a single, perfectly complete whole, but as a checkered landscape of polarized forces such as the quantum fluctuations of the vacuum. Everything in the universe consists of multiple vibration rates of multidimensional oscillating fields all part of an infinitely complex design of perfectly balanced polarities. Only through the illusion of being small and separate does all phenomena seem to exist! The greater that illusion of smallness and separateness, the greater is the reality of the world of opposites. The more that illusion is dissolved, the less real the world of phenomena and opposite forces appear to be, until ultimately, all things seem to dissolve into a universally complete Oneness or Wholeness.
A great deal of inspiration has come from my meditations on “pure silence” and thought I should speak about this incredible “silence” that mystics concentrate on only to hear amazing things. My main form of meditation is to meditate on that inner “silence” which turns out to be anything but silent! A deafening roar in fact. This is the “Shabd” that lifts one up to higher planes of consciousness. There are so many aspects to the Shabd like so many colors in a spectrum, or sounds throughout the musical scale from a low, rhythmic vibration all the way up to the finest notes of creation. All this from silence? – Yes! If you see how things really work in creation, that is what actually seems to be happening: God creating everything out of silence or nothing. All these galaxies, stars, planets, etc. come directly from intense vibration or gravitationally trapped radiation or light in various frequencies.
Did all this radiation in turn actually come from silence, space, etc….? The direction from which all reality is observed by the universal observer or consciousness residing in each and every being in existence is what actually makes the eternal Oneness come to life with such awesome force that whole universes unfold from it. It is through relativity or the power of “maya” or illusion of perspective that the Oneness becomes the “many” in all its varied forms and expressions. What one would consider to be “nothing” or empty space really is not nothing at all, it is actually the Oneness of all. It is the Universal Wholeness from which all things originate. “Nothing” or seemingly empty space is the Oneness out of which all things precipitate and crystallize out of and ultimately dissolve back into.
