You are a cosmic being!

29/09/2006.

"When you are in your room, you are physically isolated within its
four walls, set apart from the world. But by means of thought you
can make a habit of going beyond the limits of your room and
expanding into an ever greater space: into your house, into the
town your house belongs to... Then, realize that your town
belongs to a region, the region to a country, the country to a
continent, and the continent to the earth. As for the earth, it
is one of the planets that belongs to the solar system. The
solar system in turn belongs to a galaxy, and this galaxy is a
small part of the cosmos. How amazing, then, that you are alone
in your room and at the same time out in the cosmos! Since you
are a cosmic being, why do you always limit yourself, why not
open your eyes and tell yourself that you have cosmic work to
do? To that end you need only change your way of thinking and
become conscious of the fact that, as an inhabitant of the
universe, you are one with it."

Omraam Mikha‘l A•vanhov

 

well said. no sentient awairness is born to have it's perceptions narrowed nor to narrow the perceptions of others.

not all of us have a room. but somewhere, some time, we get some chaince to be alone, our thoughts and perceptions unsullied by collective social coerciveness that creates the vail of illusion that we are somehow small and seperated from an endlessly diverse and only minutely explored universe.
