But yeah it works like this:

The universe is omniscient, therefore I am omniscient.
The universe is eternal, therefore I am eternal.
When I release all of my preconceived ideas, thoughts, conditioning, ego and self, I live in the eternal now of existence. In this state, and most other states of my conciousness it takes a blink of an eye to cultivate compassion and love for anybody, even those I hate.

Now of course I have not come so far on this path to be in that state all the time, but I realize its reality and I have experienced it. When I look at the bible, everything it describes rings true with my experiences.

I could not possibly come to any other conclusion... I AM God. Is that me being selfish or raising myself up above anybody? Fuck no, its me being realistic. Im God, you are too. Whether you choose to realize it or not is on you, but hardly anybody seems to see this nowadays.

God is a word that describes a connected entity, for which you are only a minute quantum level size spec in reletive terms to the more massive whole that is the universe.

Therefore you cannot be god if you follow your observations correctly. You can only be a small part of what makes up god. If god is infact, existance itself.

Its more than just the god is the universe thing.

I know exactly what youre talking about. Those theories how you're like "oh yeah... shit... that makes a lot of sense ay" but its all just speculation, nothing rock solid because its impossible to prove that kind of shit.

Im not talking about that. The shit im referring to has an abundance of proof. If it wasnt true, I wouldnt wholeheartedly believe it and thats that.
