In the realm of consciousness, there is no time and space, so it is irrelevant to pose questions such as when the universe came to be. Maybe it existed from ever, or maybe it was just yesterday, or maybe it will become tomorrow. That’s irrelevant.

But let me tell you how it all came to be (as it was explained to me during my sixth experience with Ayahuasca between I was purging into my bucket).

So, at first, there was nothing. And then there was light, a sound, a word, a divine spark, a big bang – call it what you want. Consciousness was born.

But it is crucial to understand how it was born.

If we understand HOW consciousness was born, then we can understand the meaning of it all, since the mechanics of life is just a reflection of the underlying principle which first came into existence with the birth of consciousness.

For the consciousness to be born it was crucial to put itself in relation to something else. Otherwise, it does not exist. If there is no reflection or relation to something else, there is no consciousness. So that first spark of consciousness came to be when the first opposition was created. Similar to the action of the splitting of the biological cell, meiosis, the consciousness has split and put a mirror against itself, and it recognized itself in this mirror. It came into existence only when it recognized its reflection and when it created a relationship to this reflection. The relation to its other-self has brought on the experience of being.

That is when energy was born – that is a movement of consciousness through relation and recognition.
