I know "couch-potato" is absolutely right.

But that's the baby stuff, that's the simple part of our reality and consciousness.

It's a baseline fact that we are created with intelligent design, and that there is a highly intelligent and highly aware "designer" source that directed that design.

Now. For the OP.

Think of it like this. We are humans. We are on the earth, and the earth is a giant transmitter device. Humans and all living things grow and change through a dynamic "code" called DNA, that by the way our lovely scientists only understand around 5% percent of (call that untapped potential or what?).

Now imagine, that above our tiny little fractal consciousness that there is a massive larger one higher up on the chain consciousness, and that in the same way we are conscious, and consciously effect parts of our own bodies to communicate with other bodies that the earth and the universe intact, (this happens right down to the cells and molecules down to an energetic level) that the planet is actually using part of it's body (nature is it's body and we are a living part of nature, we are just animals, just very very complex animals) to communicate with other bodies around the galaxy and then universe.

In other words, the DNA is a dynamic communication device for intersteller beings who have acheived planetary consciousness through universal incarnation, in other words they simply became aware in this universe in the same way our (presently) tiny bodies just became into awareness in our society, and in their society, just as we use our bodies to communicate, they do the same and communicate through ourselves.

Only they don't speak.

They don't move.

They don't even act within this dimension of time, their "communication" is in two parts.

A collapsed form.

And an expanded form.

The collapsed in the microscopic DNA that is constantly changing and guiding our evolutionary path and total existence on a very very extremely close level, and the expanded version is like a movie screen or a Graphical User Interface of a computers coding which is to US, what we SEE and SENSE, and is in fact that illusory physical reality that we are limited to.

Now the whole bit about religion and finding out our true nature is this.

That we are in fact those big planetary massively aware and highly intelligent consciousnesses, simply investigating life down here, and learning about what the right type of existence and energy balance is appropriate for this particular corner of the universe. Limited and "forgotten" by incarnating into flesh and accepting the memory of a little teeny organism that's pretending to only be aware of a very very narrow and small way of life on the smallest little 2 feet wide, by around 5.5 feet tall sphere of conscious energy and physical matter. Pretending, acting out the play, the GUI version of that DNA, while there is another self inside us, waiting to be acted upon, that is the aware version of ourselves, that is...aware of our entire genetic structure of every life that has ever been lived within our blood lines and at a deeper level our entire race, along with our total awareness of balance of energies and correct "posture" and "knowledge" to evolve on our path ON TIME, and to provde homeostasis for the entire planetary group.

Now, you can see we're in a bit of a shamble with this, because on top of all this. That higher self that's waiting to become active, that guides us all to the light, yea? Well we've became so happily attatched to eating, breathing, breeding, and thinking like animals, that we don't even know that being within us even EXISTS, and most of us haven't incarnated into human form and then remained in contact with that being in a LONG TIME.

So.

I can talk more about this later if you'd like, because the last piece of information is that there are upcoming times right ahead that are MORE IMPORTANT than the last 16.4 BILLION YEARS of our universes existence.

So. Do you like that? Pretty interesting right? Meditate on that, find your awareness which has full memory and just views "time" as a linear and "seperated" concept as pure illusion. And truly knows that it is larger than just the corporeal "shell" of the body, and even the coding that runs it...=)
