This is indeed "food for thought", as UnseekingSeeker just posted.

The "multiple universes" is a subject that I have tried to introduce here in the past so I'm glad that you brought it up.

My teacher did an extensive commentary on the story of Lila and the King from the Yoga Vashistha (reportedly the dialogues between Lord Ram and his guru Vashistha). It speaks of being able to shift one's attention to other universes and actually enter other universes with the ability to communicate with entities there.

In reference to your first comment (quoted above), consciousness does indeed seem to create other consciousnesses. In fact, we do it every night when we create dream universes and sometimes get entangled in them. (The dream example thus demonstrates two levels of consciousness, and I will stop there for the moment.) After one of my meditations related to this subject, my teacher spoke about time within time within time ... and confided that while she could navigate the universe in which we clearly abide (remote viewing, etc.), she stated that she couldn't yet remain firmly established at the next level. That seems to be as good a good as any to trigger further discussion.

Now, moving on to the higher planes ........

Blessings LEMEX yes have looked beyond the veil of illusion and there is zero
entities present anywhere nor in any multi universes, there is not even one
in the absolute absolute stateless state, as one suggests a BEGINNING, and
Absolute Intelligence has never began "IT just eternally "IS".
regards michael.

Journey without distance.

All life all stars and planets the absolute entirety of all phenomenal existence
in this universe is made of ONE THING ONLY, which is Intelligent elemental
Energy which vibrates an 1044 times per second. That is the rate that matter
and all universal presented things blink in and out of existence'

Behind all elemental KOSHIC sheaths lie Absolute SPIRIT MIND. There is zero
distance to travel anywhere in this universe, its just a matter of removing
the matter (KOSHIC SHEATHS) uncovering what has always been omnipresent
there all the time.

Those of us who are not fully realized by the time they die, do NOT travel
anywhere to reach the astral realms, the astral realms interpenetrate this
dense physical realm. the blue light tunnel we experience is just a dimensional
verification of higher vibrating energy that exist within that astral realm.

Humanity already is UNBORN ETERNAL SINGULER SPIRIT, that reality lies
within you right NOW, it has always BEEN THERE and we know it NOT.
blessings michael
