First of all, this is a great post. Thank you for taking the time to create it.
As for the universe beginning to look more and more like a "GREAT THOUGHT", other Nobel-Prize winning quantum physicists have come to the same conclusion. Schroedinger explicitly wrote that science will NOT be able to investigate the subtlest levels of consciousness. He indicated that meditation alone can accomplish that as the experiments of the traditional scientist will impact what is being observed.
As you duly noted, this is consistent with the teachings of Krishna and other sages despite differences in the choice of words (Brahman, Logos,etc.)
The Sufi mystic Hazrat Inayat Khan, under whose son I practiced for some time, stated that creation begins with the activity of consciousness, which is vibration (sound, shabd, whatever). The choice of words may be different, but the process described is virtually the same in the various wisdom traditions of depth.
I really appreciate your insightful post.
