INDIVIDUALITY
We exist to provide different points of view. Imagine a single universal entity, one great intelligence, undifferentiated. What is Its viewpoint? There is no viewpoint, because there is only one outlook, with nothing to look out upon – everything is within the One. There is only one thought, and it must be an unconscious thought, because consciousness requires an object to contemplate.
I’ll repeat that – consciousness requires an object to contemplate, something to dwell upon, to focus on. You cannot be conscious without being conscious OF something. Without that, thought can only be unconscious.
Genesis describes the awakening of Something, which we label God for lack of language, into consciousness, through the creation of multiple divisions of itself, made by the formation of physical barriers, forms, shapes, bodies, and the creation of multiple viewpoints through which God can observe Itself.
It should give you an appreciation for your own individuality.
