The word "universe" comes from the words "uni," or one, and "verse," a song or poem. God is the divine artist and the universe is the continually evolving masterpiece of creation.
Stars are being born and dying in the great nebula, planetary systems are in a state of dynamic flux, developing increasing complexity with capacity to host life and awareness. Science has revolutionized our comprehension of the vastness of the cosmos.
Over a century ago, the philosopher R.M. Bucke suggested that the experience of cosmic consciousness is occurring with greater frequency as humanity evolves and with noticeably expanded reports in modern times. Uniting with the nature- field expands the identity of the individual beyond the bounds of body and ego, realizing the universal Self.
The unitive mystical experience is the basis of religion. The Koran says, "To know oneself is to know Allah." The watchword of Judaism, the Shema, says, "Adonay is One." God creates a universe in order for the cosmos to become self-aware. Realization and alignment with our source activates and empowers our channels of invention and discovery.
Creativity is an evolving cosmic force, the spark that activates inspired action. Pyramids, ancient stone circles, and temples were all built in alignment with the heavens. Through modern technology and space programs, science is peering into the depths of the universe and mysteriously reconnecting us to our origins.
The new volume of CoSM Journal explores tradition, technology, science and spirituality, deepening our relationship to cosmic consciousness. Visionary artists, poets, futurists and philosophers are invited to join our CoSMologue in celebrating the creative force.
