How much do we really know about the universe?

By Fakeer Ishavardas

There is much more to the universe than empirical science can find, or prove. We have to broaden our horizons; much more than we've been led to believe by our modern day formal education. Something more, far more than our simplistic version of the universe exists. Seek within, to find it!

Frankly, we know crap, if not less than it about the universe.

Oh yeah, we may have stumbled upon about the existence of billions of stars and galaxies etc. Human minds speculate. Then, some among us start to postulate that this known universe came into existence a few billion years ago - owing to a propped-up and pooped-up 'big bang theory' by a practicing Christian gentleman; who paradoxically, belonged to the scientific community. He admitted as much to a fellow scientist, a Nobel prize winning physicist, that it was just a theory!

About the atom also, which is the basic component of this so-called universe, we know only that it is but 99.99% space - of its essential nature and make we know nothing! Of the rest of the 0.01% of the part of the atom that is 'solid' matter so to say, we happen to know a little bit. And only this little!

What is this space, which consists of 99.99% of the atom, of which we hardly know anything, made-up and composed of ?

The universe is mostly space.

We humans, with our current scientific knowledge know next to nothing about Space, its fundamental constitution, composition etc.

The scientists know as much about the universe as do jihadists about God!

In simple words, nothing!

So, what are we to do, to get a better understanding of whatever is? Perhaps we need to take on this query rather ultra-scientifically, and therefore, metaphysically.

The metaphysical positioning and reality is that this know universe, and everything else that we see, is nothing but an illusory display by the shadow of no-thing-ness.

Meaning thereby, that we, along with the known universe, are not a 'thing' or a this-that material or empirical 'matter' as such.

Outwardly, we and our universe may seem like a solid entity. But science informs us that atom is constantly and ceaselessly breaking and forming all the time. Hence, it is not solid, so to say!

The supra scientific final metaphysical reality too states thus.

Matter is but energy, science tells us. But what is this energy, its composition? And from where does it come from etc.? Its source, and that of this known universe, is pegged upon the whimsical big bang theory brought into existence by an obviously compromised 'religious' scientist - from the elite lot of modern science.

A whim cannot be relied upon to will or pin the Final Answer.

Firstly, big bang is just a theory. Secondly, there is no proof that this known universe did not exist before it. Lastly, many a Nobel prize winning physicist as Schrodinger, Max Planck, Heisenberg etc. did not agree with it. To them, the universe seemed to have existed forever, from afore itself.

By the way, the above said scientists had all read the 'Upanishads', the Gnostic scriptures of ancient India. They all acknowledge it.

Anyway, science does not know the Source of this known universe.

In fact, we do not know of the 'father' of our 'mother' atom. All that we the humankind at present have is a speculation. Not a fact.

Of the atom we know that it is the illegitimate 'son' of the 'non-mating' of a non-alive and non-conscious 'virgin' cosmic phenomenon! This bio-chemical 'happening' or atomic-mating is now known as the big bang.

So, who are we, and what is this universe?

The ancient sages, specifically of India, had self-actualized and self-realized as a personal metaphysical self-experience That Which Is. They put on record for us that all seen and unseen phenomenon dissolves and disappears at the end. And it materially and empirically merges indivisibly unto a no-thing-ness and all-ness; of an eternal oneness and an infinite is-ness.

In other words, delving unto the limitless endlessness of the cosmic existence, it is empirically but metaphysically found as an ethereal and eternal truth that at the very end, in absolute reality, there is no atom or energy or a separate entity in existence; which in substratum is 'other' than the Whole as such.

All existence is but a singular and an inviolable, indivisible and an inseparable cosmic unity of the Whole of What Is.

This infinity and eternity - because 'It' is, as it is - casts a shadow, as if.

From the illusory shadow of this 'It' of Which Is and of the Cosmic Absolute, emanates the ethereal potential of manifestation.

It, in turn, leads to the making of an illusory 'virgin' phenomenon.

As a consequence of it, is brought in the 'birthing' of the unknown and the unseen universe.

An infinitesimal chimera from this 'That-ness', then, is seemingly birthed as this seen and the known universe.

Being birthed from the Source of Infinite Eternity and Unity of Forever-ness, the 'sired' - that is us, and the universe - may be said to be as the Maker.

Hence, each and everything is in the 'make' of the Absolute.

As is the Source, so is the sired.Thus each and everything, all is an 'alive' and conscious comic is-ness.

Including you, them! And I.

Metaphysically, thus is the alpha and omega of the universe.

Science too can find it to be so, in due time.

Hence, the Secret of the Universe is in its composite word itself. It is uni, One. And all else - whatsoever that may be - is its paean, poetry, and verse.

Mystics of India thus know, fully and finally, this universe.

Other than it is unscientific, illogical, and remains unproven as of yet.
