Possibilities What are the possibilities of higher consciousness? Who can truly say how great the possibilities are? After all, we have only begun to learn our address in a vast universe — a universe which we presume to be the only one. Thinking, struggling, man has worked through many conceptions and misconceptions over the ages and has, with brave science, brilliant mathematics, and pieces of glass in long tubes, finally been able to figure out where he lives in the physical universe. According to Timothy Ferris, in his book, Galaxies, your correct address (after you write down your street number, your city or town, your state or province, and country) is: "The Earth, The Solar System, The Sun's Neighborhood, Vicinity of the Orion Arm, The Milky Way Galaxy, The Local Group of Galaxies, The Local Supercluster, The Universe, Circa 18 Billion Years After the Beginning of Its Expansion." So, at least we can be comforted in knowing where we live in the physical universe. While we continue learning about our physical universe and are still wondering whether there is life on other planets within the inconceivable vastness, we know even less about the universe behind closed eyes. What is this stuff of life? Where does it come from? How does it work? It is conscious, we know, but how conscious is this life and what is the point of it? Where is life coming from? Where is it going? And why?
