I honestly do subscribe to my anthropocentric Universe theory. Carl Gustav Jung referred to the "Universal Unconscious". Since, according to my belief, Consciousness precludes the nature of Universal evolution it is perpetually present. We sentient life forms are like the intersections of the mesh that sieves through this Universal unconscious and are by the process of birth or rebirth afforded the opportunity to develop a unique identity. The mind is linked to the Universal Unconscious and it has the potential to survive the cessation of the corporeal harbour of the spirit wherein we develop this identity. Consciousness must be represented by a very powerful energy.
It is said that when Jesus died on the cross the Gates of Heaven were opened. I interpret this to mean that 2,000 years ago the spiritual development of individuals had attained a state of evolutionary advancement that potentially qualified them to enter that spiritual domain wherein dwell the preserved identities of other spirits from across the Universe who were so qualified and who are to all intent and purpose immortal.
Belief is a potent force that guides our spiritual selves. We must believe in our spiritual potential lest we lose the opportunity to release ourselves from the cycle of life and death and find that the end really is no more than worm food when we wake up dead.
