I've gorra say I learned this throuh astral travel, theres the physical realm , the hear and now thats really solid that we can't manipulate, our bodys are part of the physical, and then theres the astral your soul, which is made up of billiols of electrons which leave our body when we die, our soul, which we can explore the world ourselves. yeah there is the universe, but there are more universes than there are stars in it, its infinate, but also infinately small if we manage to move beyond it. all the souls in every universe hook up and conjoine togother and are controlled bye one mind, one conciousness, when a soul expands his conciousness to all "that is light" he attains godhood. God is the creator of the universe, but he him self has a creator, the infiniverse, which is just like a huge white disk with a face on it the all origonal master soul we are part of. it is finate, but the mere thaught of it is well beyond the conciousness of what the average man is cabable of thinking within him are the gods and the angels, and the gods are made up of stars as if they were mere electrons in his soul. there are two infinity verses good and evil,posotive and negative, black and white which are in total darkness. no one knows what the infinity verse is a microcosm of and we will never know, but I have a feeling, the whole of what is in existance is infinatley small and infinatley big. we could find that the infiniverses make up to form a cell in somones body and we find ourself going around in circles again, and its a never ending cycle with a begining and end and then a begining again for eternity, god is so close to being nothing, he is in every cell in our body, but we are so close to being everything, within every cell is a microsoul which is made up of infiniverses which is made up of universes and planets, thats what life is, and it will go on for all eternity, you can not define life how big or how small because if you did it would be finate and it wouldnt exist!!!!!!!!!! the only answer is that its eternal and there is no answer, and disapointingly getting our concious mind around the universe is a cycle of infinate expansion only to find out the whole thing aye nothing but a cell in someones liver. to expand so and nothing else out side other than its own existance. If we were to run through one side of the universe we would just come out the other side, If we wanted to find out what the universe is we would find it appears like infinaty but its the smallest microcosm of life on another level.
