Currents of consciousness.
A thought within the mind of the Divine.
The medium that enables the experience of creation.
Energy density corresponds to the accumulation of conditioning.
Energy density corresponds to the accumulation of unconscious ideas and beliefs.
Energy appears to be finite when separation is believed.
Energy is actually infinite.
Matter is confined energy.
When the infinite nature of energy is known, energy becomes a tool for awakening from finite experience.
When the infinite nature of energy is known, one sees infinitude everywhere.
Physics: The total energy of the universe is increasing due to the ongoing creativity of infinite Consciousness. The oneness of phenomena requires that energy is increasing everywhere, at all levels of scale, within the universe. This increasing energy content relates to the observed expansion of the universe, dark energy, and one of the meanings of Brahman, which is expansion.
