The Universe Is You: A Radical Perspective on Reality
What if the most intimate relationship in your life isn't with a person but with reality itself? Every time you open your eyes, an extraordinary miracle occurs - photons stimulate your retina, yet somehow transform into vision. Your brain contains zero light, no brightness, no images. When you visualize a loved one's face, it exists nowhere in your brain like a photograph. This fundamental mystery underlies everything we experience. Nobel laureate Sir John Eccles declared there exists no color, sound, textures or patterns in the natural world - all qualities of nature are produced by human beings. Ancient Vedic sages proclaimed "Aham Brahmasmi" ("I am the universe"), and modern science increasingly supports this profound insight. You aren't just in the universe - you are the universe expressing itself in human form, creating reality in ways you've never imagined.
