How true it is, and right you are.
Thanks for the link.

Grand. Much needed.

Thanks Thoth and Rutilus. It was perspective I needed today. :)

very grand indeed

thank you reinforcing what we often forget. ~R~

A grand thank you Jesse for stopping in!
Chuck, it is a good reminder. I think I should rewatch it every so often whenever I start to feel overwhelmed with life.

Sagan is all wet, all wrong..
we are AT THE CENTER always...
God's little trick on us to put us out in the way way suburbs..

You are at the direct center of the universe.
Post-Sagan science proves this...
So is everyone.
Deal with it..

Hmm, okay James, you are probably right that we are the center of the universe. Each of us, however I didn't get anything about being, or not being, the center of the universe out of that little video clip. I even listened to it again to be sure I hadn't missed anything. The message I hear is that we, our world, our planet, is but a small, small, part of a vast universe. A moment of perspective as we get caught up in our daily lives. Perhaps there is a combined message here, in that yes we are a small, tiny little piece of one vast universe and yet we are also the center around which that universe revolves. Which makes me think that what he said at the end about taking care of this planet, the only home we know, to be all the more important.

Well, yeah, sure,
take care of the planet, etc...
It's your Body, after all... a fluid give & take...

but the center is not geometrically located...

it is inside the head,

it fluctuates outward using its body to express its thoughts..

pollute Pluto & itll get back to you, there, at the

pinpoint center of it all..

(the point is: be responsible,
as the center of the universe...ha)

Point taken James. :)

I've always known some people were the center of their universe. hehe

Okay, okay, sometimes me too. hahaha

No, look, all this nonsense i am spouting has a very real truth...

look at the world..
it is NOT round! It is flat...it is an infinite plane...centered on you..not your ego,
which has been projected outward to taake
possesssion of certain objects to build up a sense of self..

but the True center, the fountain of being, the ground erupting
at the center of the universe
to be...you...
Spirit, flesh..with soul as the
intermediary....


the world is flat.

the sun revolves around us.


this is the way to look at things.

otherwise you are a speck of cosmic dust,
with no rsponsibility to emerge as an enlightened woman.

there. hope i made myself clear, dammit...
fuck copernicus & then galileo?
bu;rn him at the stake

Crystal clear, James. I love your passion. Working on being that enlightened woman. :)

"makes me wonder even more
than i did before
what all the fighting is for"


I guess it's to feel bigger...

We all sense that in a metaphysical way,
we ARE central to the universe.
Then we try to realize this
finitely...
materially...
which as you've very well shown,
will lead to ultimate despair...

So: go metaphysical!!!!

(What would a metaphysical war
be like?)

Yeah...what's all this fighting for???? Some days I'm sure I'm just a pale blue dot myself! Rated for orginality!

Thanks Ralph, I always like to see you drop in. :)

How true Aline. This is amazing. I saw this clip on FB but never gave it a thought. And as the narrator on that spec of dust lives all our loved ones and we on earth are fighting with each other. What a pity. If folks, the educated ones who start wars can take a macro view of how small we are , may be they will change their mind. Ahhh... thats wishful thinking. They are now trying to create the god particle at LHC to find out more about our creation. And they will make use of their study at LHC (Large Haldron Collider) only to create more weapons... Sorry for being a cynic but we never ever think in terms of a more intelligent civilization existing somewhere out there !!. Wonderful Video. May I nick it Aline

Nick away Kalyan.

Sorry, I got your name wrong Zashin. I was thinking of someone else. I am sorry about that. And thanks for the permisson. I am still trying to figure out how to emded a youtube clip. Its on the "the show must go on" and AIDS, but I am still to get the hang of it. Maybe later.
Thanks !
