The universe, god, you, me, that stick on the ground... it's all the same - there is no boundary and they're all a reflection of eachother. The real question is 'is conciousness lasting or like every other part of our physical being does that energy disperse and recycle as well'
Everything we can comprehend is made up of energy and the physical world we experience is an expression of that...not just as we experience it. Thats pretty much "fact" as I understand it. It's all about how we experience things. We've sort of had this conversation before so maybe I'm just blabbering but I'd recomend you look into Wayne Dyer and Deepak Chopra then balance things out with a peek at some taoist ideas as I'm beginning to feel Dyer and Chopra's ideas about 'we are an expression of god/the universe/etc and can control everything going on through meditation' I mean I buy it I think but being in control isn't my thing - too much pressure. I'd rather go with the flow and learn from compramise and adeptation while maintaining happiness through effortlessness. Personally.

Yeah, my idea is that if there is a god, god is all of us (animals, earth, energy) and our consciousness and that is what makes god. But it's like the blind monks and the elephant, we could all be right.
But I'm one of those people who stands firmly behind the belief that I can't "know" anything. I'll find out when I'm supposed to, so I'll just go with the flow for now.
