God’s mind pulses with concentration at the birth of every thing in our universe. These pulsations send spherical waves of consciousness inward from the border of God’s mind toward creation, informing each new piece of material with its own unit of consciousness as it emerges from the portal of here and now.
Time passed and creation became more complex as subatomic particles reached out to one another according to metaversal principles of organization. And particles made atoms, atoms made molecules, molecules made elements, which made minerals, all programs run by the consciousness of what I've begun calling the Demiurge, using Gnostic terminology. Since originally developing this T.O.E., I've come to see the distinct difference between the molecular level of this cosmos and the living level. The term Units of Consciousness should only apply to the living creatures, from cells on up. Single-celled organisms diversified into the full panoply of life, and every one of these living building blocks came equipped with its own unit of consciousness (UC). Each tiny unit of consciousness knew what role it needed to play in order to help the universe create and sustain itself, for every UC could decode and instantiate its own special piece of the metaversal ideal. The strictly material level appears to level up and operate as if it were conscious, but the consciousness is singlular, residing in the mind of the Demiurge, which manipulates the material to achieve cohesion and form. It is only the living UCs that have self-identity and free-will. For more information on this new Gnostic wrinkle to the Simple Explanation, please visit my Gnostic Insights homepage and podcast.

At each stage along the way from simple to complex, units of consciousness are increasingly sophisticated in their ability to regulate and manage their existence.
I guess it's possible ...
ReplyDeleteIt would seem that all UC's were created at the beginning. There is in reality no creation or destruction of UC's over time. There are only organizational changes and transformations.
ReplyDeleteGood point, Dr. Bill. The Big Bang took only moments to pour all the potential UCs into our Universe.
ReplyDeleteScientists tell us that all the particles in the Universe were formed in moments, and that the initital transformations and organizing of particles into more complex shapes took under a second. We're discussing UCs, not particles, but we already know that every particle is associated with a UC, or to put it another way, every essentially identical UC expresses itself as a particular instantiation of matter. According to Yogic philosophy, the matter is only in illusory projection of the UC's individualized consciousness.
So then, it there an evolution of UCs that mirrors itself through the evolution of matter?

Excellent question, 13.
ReplyDeleteThe UCs never evolve because each UC is already a perfect replica of the original UC (the one that emerged directly from the metaverse). What changes is the sophistication and abilities of the matter that limits its expression in this 3-D world.
As the material becomes more complex, with more complex and massive attachments, the UC that has chosen to govern that aggregation of material focuses its attention to that level of decision making.
If there is an atomic-sized grouping, then there would be the number of UCs involved in that grouping as a physicist would expect to observe. If that atom joins up laterally with other atoms to form a molecule, then at the here and now of the new molecule's instantiation, a UC focused on making decisions on behalf of that molecule enters the universe. This would be what I refer to as the molecule's governing UC.
