The Infinity Thread

God appears in the mirror every day. God makes mistakes.
God is fallible. God smites.

My immediate family was gone by the time I had reached my
late teens. Always one to wonder at the parameters of life’s
mysteries, this fact of mortality pushed me to find answers
where none were given.

What happened to my loved ones? Was it all over for them?
Their bodies expired and already hollow, shallow mockeries or
ashes in an urn, had any part of them except the encompassing
memories popping up at every event somehow survived?

Was there any hope that we would be together again? Or was
life, and existence itself, all just a flicker in the default of black
nothingness?

But miracles were everywhere. Vision was a miracle.
Hearing was miraculous. Even simple existence was a chain
of improbable links.

Why did she have to die so young? It wasn’t fair. Where was
karma? A good person dies while a mean, arrogant fool lives on
for decades.

Nothingness. The void. This was what I was left with, the
legacy of the mortal. In a dimension where energy could not be
destroyed, only changed, how could that which once was be
extinct?

I witnessed only one constant in the known and reported universe:
Change. History changes, species evolve, mountains fold, planets
morph, stars collapse and galaxies collide. Does even “God”
change?

Philosophy. Physics. Theology. Psychology. Astronomy.
Biology. History. Where did the answer lie? Which endeavor
hadn’t reached yet enough to touch the secret?

Music. Drawing. Touching. What sensations would bring me
nearer to that which withstood the toll of the ages?

The mathematical invention of “zero” was an ancient calculation
tool. Common use of the concept of “nothing” involved the
mere absence of something quite nameable.

A state of non-being was unrealistic in an energy-exchanging
reality. It could not be they had gone “nowhere,” for there’s
no such thing as nothing.

We could guess at the origins of our essence, but origin and
Absolute Fate was beyond speculative usefulness. Who knew if
there even was an absolute Mind, a God or Gods to reign and
explain all things? Even that concept might be no more than a
wispy blip.

Then more discoveries met my realm, and it turned out that even
the vacuum of space was ripe with subatomic activity. We swam,
it seemed, in a quantum foam. We changed things by observing
them. And until we observe, they might not be existent at all.

And then it was evident. The pitiful beginnings of
Consciousness were ours to test drive.

And one night beneath the stars I discovered what was going on.

The Weaver weaves herself “whole” into the cloth.

A tickle. A flow. Vibrational wave fluctuations in play. A light
That does not travel. A light that has no speed, underlying
everywhere.

By being a tree, I knew every leaf. By being a serpent, I knew not
only what is was like to be a serpent, but how it felt and seemed to
be That serpent. And one at a time I would know each fish and
fowl, critter and claw abundant, creature by ever-evolving creature.

And when at last I became a man it came unto me: “I AM.”

Curiosity. Observation. Vision. Hearing. The light. The cries
of the serpent. One from the other from the former to the next,
feeding backward and forward the plans and unforeseen changes
any universe might hold.

And I met my loved ones again, when one by one I became them.
And I’ll meet my loved ones once again, when one by one I
become them.

A trillion simultaneous lives will be lived one life at a time.

I’m the challenged. And the challenger. First I’m here. But then
I’m over there. I’m on every side of the argument and on both
sides of the aisle. One life at a time.

And why? For what fathomless reason do I live each life that Is?
Must I cry each tear that falls? Must I laugh each laugh that
lives?

I was born a lot like you. Never asked to be, but was. Yet, unlike
you, grew alone until awareness glanced my brow.

“I AM” now.

But what am I becoming? How many different beings can I be?
And once that I’ve been every one of every kind of every thing
what will I be, imagine me, in the end?

At that instant when change runs its course, and there are no more
dying babies to become, no more jerks who win the lottery to be,
no more saints who get murdered at the 7-11 to embody, no more
party animals living to be 100? What will I become?

That is the instant I’ll know everything. Be everywhere. All
questions speedily answered. That is the moment when Time is
all mine, when Space will be invisible and every Where side by
side. Through the membrane of minds I’ll touch every mind I
was.

I’ll span the expanses of Time, returning to revisit myselves, and
even sooth and comfort victims while I set out to punish some
perps.

God is perfect. God is omniscient. God is omnipotent. And like
The light that has no speed, the brightness that does not travel,
God is everywhere in spacetime.

One space at a time.

When the perfect God meets the fallible God, no Heaven can be
simple. At certain crossroads Heaven must be Hell. The past and
future parts resound in disharmonic goals. Knowing everything,
I suddenly must start over.

Don’t you have to admit, it’s a complex, amazing existence,
this? Attribution must be given to some “ordering process.”
The one thing you can’t ever admit is that you are God.

    So God is Satan is God?

    Never smoke a doobie just before you read a post by The Naked Professor. You'll be off on a tangent....like I'm about to be.... (he makes me think too much...)

    Haven't I always said that you were godlike?
  • Dreamknightx said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Why did you ever-so-slightly alter your ID? Wow, I liked this post. Poetic and powerful in expressing some orginal thought on universal themes.
  • hunter_boyce_chandler said on Aug 06, 2006....
    brother.. You were born with the vision. I suspect that the god, I mean your actual fire breathing lightning rod too bright to look at god, is a projection into our multiverse from another more shiney one. One day you will stand before him/her and she/he will say.... Sorry...It's all been a complete cock up. I was trying to make toast. I recall "Jem" by Fredrick Pohl to be an apt reference work on theology. I really don't want to start another subscription but I may have to before monday.
  • WeirdWorld said on Aug 06, 2006....
    TNP, Heck I really didnt believe that you actually meant it... Dude I am in shock.... Last interaction to you, dont worry about it.... Have a great life.... Adious S
  • WeirdWorld said on Aug 06, 2006....
    TNP, Heck I read the blog, and its good, real good, mean it... So thought as long as I had the right to comment why not... Who knows the future, deleted and blocked... Do we as human beings live a life of black and white, we live in grey shades.... Every virtue and vice which defines you, makes you greyer... Then why expect a God to be white, and Satan to be black?? I am writing this because I live in those grey shades.... And as I believe in my existence, so I believe in the grey shades.... I dont have a nice relationship with God, but still I believe, because we as humans want to believe in someone/something out there. We believe because we want to.... That justifes us... Adious S
  • WeirdWorld said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Now I know, didnt look at the ID properly, getting old I guess... Or getting too doped by the medicines... Adious S P.S.:- Now i really wont bug you...

    Prof--I totally misjudged you when I went off on you about your "America Is The World". Of course, I realize what I said was mild compared to other comments--but I still feel bad. You have wonderful prose--and you are sharp & witty. Anyway, if I cannot start posting on Monday, I may be doing the same thing (creating a new username). Maybe an alternate persona--who knows? Sorry I ramble. Just wanted to apologize.
  • hunter_boyce_chandler said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Professor, you are by god the most talented person I have ever encountered. I sense in you a shade of my favorite madame and the poet that has broken my heart. I smell the Sith and the DanBurger that give me so much vicarious pleasure. You are a god TNP. If you are not published you should be.
  • TheNakedProfessor said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Gosh, you guys are too kind. Thank you humbly for all of the wonderful words. It's your inspiration that drives me to be as good as i can get. Isn't this ban on popular bloggers absurd? It isn't like our efforts were keeping anyone else from prominence, was it?Ah well, gives me a chance to look over some of your stuff that I may have missed before more comes a-pourin' forth. Love to all my blog-colleagues. Keep writing and use the extra time to edit!!!
  • TheNakedProfessor said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Jade - I have enjoyed all your comments, and I am certainly not above criticism. As Hotaka is usually the first to point out, a lot of my stuff is written tongue-in-cheek, and when I don't have a wink and a smile to punctuate with, literal interpretation can give things a slippery spin. I certainly don't think you should be on the "ban" wagon with the bad boys of blog (silver, hunter, me etc.) since you are a relative newcomer and worthy of readership. You can still post, just alter your name ever-so-slightly, pick a new password, and go. We can do this and even integrate our previous blogs into our new ones if we choose. The disturbing thing is - is this a harbinger of SoulCast future? Have we been hacked and sabotaged?
  • JadeLondon said on Aug 06, 2006....
    Prof, but here I was blathering on about how about I hated people judging me & yet I did that. If anything, I should appreciate your writings all the more (especially being that most writing I appreciate--is for wit). Anyway, compliments from you are indeed high praise--*blush*--I will try to be worthy. And the only way any of you guys could be 'bad boys' was if it was a new synonym for 'talented'. Most Sincerly Yours-- Jade

    NakedProf--This post is both profoundly beautiful and wonderfully simple. Thank you for this.

    Professor, you must share some of your stash. It has to be home-grown.
  • celestialspace2001 said on Aug 08, 2006....
    I've often wondered what happens to the dead besides the gruesome reality of "Six Feet Under." So everyone, remember - when it's your turn to be me, be kind to our body, don't have sex with just anyone, and keep our naturally red hair shaved to a strip, okay? Trust me, I've been driving this model for three decades now.

  • TheUndergroundEagle said on Aug 08, 2006....
    The question arises, when I finally AM you, are my actions predestined? Am I just experiencing everything exactly as you did, or am I in a parallel reality that is ever-so-slightly different and where I can grow a wild red bush at 24 this time around whereas I shaved the strip the "last" time? Is entering another mind actually entering a parallel universe? Does every individual brain create a new universe split off from the previous ones? Is there any reality where the District of Columbia is officially a state? Where Saddam is a good guy? Where Bush has brains? Where things are almost the same, or exactly the same just up to a certain point, and then....?

    This is a wild post...it's floating alone, away from the rest of TNP's I guess because he created it during the crash of august 6th. He must have really wanted to post it that day.
  • sheemAfeM said on Aug 28, 2006....
    wow this was such a beautiful experience.

    Maybe a new religion will start from this thought and TNP will become religious icon like L. Ron Hubbard and Mohammed and Jesus and that guy on the corner over there.

    TNP - wow, what was he?? Such a bit everywhere.
  • aeschylus said on Oct 01, 2006....
    So, Professor, is this 'tongue in cheek' or did you really figure it out.

    Appears you may have finally gone full circle.

    Isn't that called "evolution?"

    I have heard of this post but that it was vanished. So
    it exists alone as do each of us, skinned away for now.

    This God could be all our gods, any of our gods.

    I cannot see myself that way as Allah. I cannot see
    my persecutor as Allah. I do not want to think that Allah
    does to cause my pain, just to learn.
