I'm curious. How can infinity exist side-by-side with itself? The ancient numbers and letters, such as "phi" (e.g., Sophia/Wisdom), reflected a never ending number that is inherent in matter. This means it is inherent in us. So, if I am infinite, and you are infinite, and this computer is infinite....how is it we exist side-by-side with each other? The physicist Heisenberg described experiments where 2 photons appear to change simultaneously regardless of distance. Is this a phenomena of Infinity? In other words, it doesn't matter if the photons are billions of light years away from each other, they change simultaneously meaning (a) they have to be one and the same and / or (b) they are grounded in infinity. Why infinity? Because by being grounded in infinity means they are grounded in what is beyond time and space, since infinity does not exist side-by-side with itself..
Could this explain some things that we say are unnatural. For example, if we are infinite and hence time and space are surface level illusions of our minds, then wouldn't it make sense that someone with "supernatural" powers would be able to for-see the future (Infinity is timeless) or that someone can "feel" like something dreadful has happened to her spouse? How could this be? It has to be for all things in Infinity are closer to us than our nose to our face. The illusion is finiteness, not infiniteness. In Hindu this illusion of the finite is called Maya, or illusion.
But, the infinite is limited. How could someone know herself if there was nothing within her except she within herself. This is why in spiritual texts the first act in creation is to place limitations on the infinite. For example, Marduk chopped up his Mother, Tiamant (primordial ocean or chaos), and created a world. "The Bible" reads, "And the Earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep." This is infinity, David Bohm's Unmanifest Implicate Order. And then, God, Infinity, said let there be Light (Manifestation), then, Light arises and divides the ocean into 2, the upper and lower waters reflected in the Hebrew letter, Aleph, which contains two dots, one atop a cross bar, the other below . In the Siviate Sutra, the Absolute is divided or partitioned off by Sound (the Word), while in Proverbs Sophia takes Her place alongside God in Proverbs, when He put a compass to the Deep (Tehom, the Darkness of the beginning) and divided Her.
In our great, modern scientific minds, we think, "ah, these silly, childish ancients are talking of a place in time. Why, the universe is billions of years old." Meanwhile, the silly man who according to science is brainwashed by the church says, "the universe was made 6,000 years ago." But, I say that Scriptures across all contenents and times are written in the timeless language of infinity. And, what's more important, is that we can journey there if we are willing to let go of ourselves. Yes, what I'm saying is that if we go deep enough, we come to a place where an instant and an eternity, a microscopic entity and a universe without end, become one. This is why we live in a "uni-verse."
Yet, limitations are necessary. This is why in birth we have what is called a "m-other." Before birth, and even for a few months after, we don't call this mother, for we are not distinguished from her. At first we call her ma, mamma and, eventually, like the old aristocratic English, we call her Mother. This mirrors the process of the limited emanating from the limitless. There has to be a separation of Mother and Child as well as Finite from Infinity. In Infinity, there is no separation.. As such, the Tao Te Ching sings: "The Tao gives birth to one, and the one gives birth to 2 (no-thing and something, please remember this is not mathematical law where "0 + 1 = 1"). The two give birth to 3 (relationship as reflected in our letter "A" where we have two lines emanating from a central point of infinity with a third line connecting the two. The connecting line is the relationship which is much different than the Hebrew Aleph which shows two points divided by a barrier. We adopted the "A" while believing the illusion of the aleph (the illusion is of separation). So, when we make love we mirror this "A" in that the woman (egg shaped '0') integrates the male (phallus or penis shape '1,') and creates a world (the Manifest, a baby).
