Spontaneous Divine Order

All That Is - is divinely creative but not schizophrenic! 

We try to “understand” the universe using a simplistic logic system (true-false), in a linear time context, thinking that what is real is the 3D snapshots that we call physical reality.  We attempt to use mathematics (based on the same logical assumptions) to describe what we perceive and end up with an empty, mechanistic understanding with no place for consciousness - divine or otherwise.  

Our own systems of mathematics and philosophy are incomplete and flawed, yet it’s all we have when we try to “understand” the unknowable.  Godel’s theorem showed that no mathematical theory can be complete or consistent with a finite number of axioms … yet we use those limited tools to make our technological toys and to create models of the unknowable.  Similarly, Wittgenstein, in his book Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (TLP) recognizes fundamentally that it is impossible to speak of the unknowable.  Thus even philosophy is preoccupied with the playground of physical perception and can’t speak of the unknowable.  

Seth’s comments here would be blindingly obvious if we weren’t blinded by our own systems of knowing!

“If you have thought that the universe followed a mechanistic model, then you would have to say that each portion of this “cosmic machine” created itself, knowing its position in the entire “future construction”.  You would have to say further that each portion came gladly out of its own source individually, neatly tailored to its position, while at the same time that individual source was also as intimately the source of each other individual portion.

“I am not saying that the universe is the result of some “psychological machine”, either, but that each portion of consciousness is a part of All That Is, and that the universe falls together in a spontaneous divine order – and that each portion of consciousness carries within it indelibly the knowledge of the whole.”
