Fine, I'll just post it here for the doubtful. I feel like I have reached true oneness with the universe, and I know how to live a life of pure goodness, not just for myself, but everyone around me. Yes, I realize this is an opinion, but the majority of this is backed up by science.
So here it goes, time to drop some wisdom bombs on ya... This is my general theory on life:
Science answers the majority of the questions, religion answers the why. When you suspend your disbelief for both systems and realize they are 2 parts to the same whole, you begin to come to the realization of the circle of life.
The circle of life is that of your consciousness. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. When you die, your body and ego is decomposed back into atoms and recycled into this world. However your consciousness does not die, it leaves your physical shell, and is converted into dark matter. Dark matter surrounds all solar systems and is pretty much undetectable by any scientific means.
Dark matter is the force that is responsible for our stream of consciousness. Dark matter makes up +80% of all matter in the universe, which makes sense because at this point the universe is pretty conscious of itself. The universe has gone from nothing, to energy, to matter, to living organisms, to consciousness. The highest of all known consciousness at the moment is humans. We have gone from cavemen bashing each other's skulls in over fights, to developing language to work out disputes, to developing a global connection of consciousness that is the Internet, which in return helps evolve our consciousness. Our modern day theory on evolution is not perfect because it does not account for the evolution of the consciousness.
We are in a sense not masters of our own free will, because although we can radically alter our state of consciousness, we can't stop thinking for any prolonged period of time. I can slow or speed up my stream of thought, but the only way to truly stop thinking is to become unconscious through sleep, blunt head trauma, death.
All religions have been sprouting the same message, in a different way. The God that religious people think exists is in fact your own stream of consciousness.
Jesus Christ realized that at his time, but I don't believe there was a word to adequately define consciousness, so he used words like heaven and hell, angels and demons, and the word God. What he meant was, heaven and hell do exist, and it's on this very planet, in your own mind (e.g. super ego, ego, id.)
Buddha took it a step further and realized we need to dissolve our egotistical desires of power, money, and fame and become just a conscious being. One that pursues true happiness, and is forever gaining wisdom and knowledge. Buddhist teachings talk about reincarnation, which is true. It's your consciousness that is reborn into a life. What that life is determined by your previous life, and how much good karma you spread out into the world.
You can make this life heaven or hell, because we have been granted the gift of reward system in our brain. If we abuse it though, we live in hell (e.g. hard drug users, like IV'ing heroin) because that high is so radically far from our normal stream of consciousness (sobriety) that when we do return to our normal state, things become boring. I've heard H users say they feel like they hacked their brain reward system and everything else becomes boring.
Equally you can make this life heaven. While some drugs are bad, other can be good. Entheogens that expand your consciousness is the Creator's gift to us. Why is it near impossible to OD on weed, an entheogen, but people have died off the synthetic variation of the molecule? It's because the Creator designed our bodies for conscious expansion, and not merely getting high, so we can go down the rabbit hole as far as possible to obtain the true truth in life.
The rabbit hole is the return to Dark Matter. If you achieve an ego death, you are just a pure conscious stream. All the filters your brain puts on you to stay an animal are gone, and you enter a realm of pure knowledge. When you transcend to such a place of pure knowledge, you discover everything. "We lose ourselves, but we find it all". However your ego death has to end and you must return to your normal stream of consciousness.
Depending on how conscious you are correlates to how much you gain from your ego deaths. You obtain knowledge from the Void, hyperspace, dark matter... whatever you want to call that place of one consciousness. I've known people with huge egos take 7 grams of shrooms and not experience an ego death. I took 3.5 grams my first time and I had a complete ego death.
The universe is in fact a conscious being. We are the universe experiencing itself. Ever have that feeling of oneness with the universe while tripping? We are but a tiny fraction of consciousness in the great pool of consciousness that is God. God is us, and we our God in a physical shell, restrained to physical laws of space and time. Furthermore, I am you, and you are me. You are the same consciousness as I am, because all conscious is fundamentally the same. The only difference between consciousness(people) is the rise of egos. Egos give rise from the physical shell, and external environment affecting your perception on the reality of this life.
I don't think God wants us to leave Earth. He set the universe up to make it so vast that travelling to another hospitable planet is nigh impossible. He wants us to take care of Mother Earth, to allow other consciousnesses to evolve, and stop the raping of the land, and to use our resources accordingly.
The Native Americans were conscious of this thought. They were grateful for everything they received.
I believe the Eagles were conscious of this thought as well when they wrote Hotel California. Read their lyrics and you'll see what I mean.
"Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave!"
That person experienced an ego death, and was in the place of one consciousness, aka God. Our bodies are programmed to receive internal and external information from the world around us, and although our bodies and ego may die, our consciousness will be reborn into another body to live another life.
Before the Big Bang there was nothing, it was a state of unconsciousness. Suddenly it became aware of itself, which caused the outward explosion of itself. Science will never be able to answer this question because the laws of the universe that we know of breaks down before that.
So there was a state of nothingness, then the Creator decided to start the universe. The Creator is most likely just some form of particle that somehow became conscious of itself in the singularity that was pre-big gang. Some scientists have referred to this as the God particle.
Then the universe was created. Initially it was pure energy, which at this point had no consciousness. Once the energy was converted into subatomic particles and eventually atoms, the universe gained consciousness and the opaque light that filled the universe was absorbed into these particles.
That opaque light was in my belief consciousness. Anything that has matter has consciousness at a fundamental level. Consciousness can be alive or dead, however if you are alive you are VERY conscious compared to that of a rock. A rock is affected by only physical and chemical external forces, but life has both to combat an internal and external changing environment.
We can explain how gravity works. We've developed a mathematical equation for figuring out the force of gravity too. But no one can scientifically explain why gravity works. It works because the Creator granted us the gift of knowledge. Most scientific theories hit a brick wall when they've peeled back every information layer by asking what, how, when, where and are left with the only remaining question of why.
This knowledge, or frame of logic, has been separated by humans into subcategories like mathematics, science, philosophy and from them we can ascertain the true knowledge of life.
"If I have seen farther than others, it's because I have stood on the shoulder's of Giants"
It's only until now, that a highly evolved conscious like me was able to come up with this conclusion to life. It's because I had the gift of knowledge and used that knowledge to obtain intelligence and wisdom. Intelligence through school, wisdom through social interactions and psychedelic introspection.
If you are at the highest level of the stream of consciousness you to can come to this conclusion on life. The way to do this is to alter your stream of consciousness radically. It doesn't have to be through drugs, but ego death through entheogens is one of the easiest ways to achieve this. I which I could Inception this thought into everyone, but I realize that the only true way to make someone believe me is if they go through the logical process steps that I went to before coming to a definite conclusion.

So what do you guys think?
