Karl Pibram, in a live talk, once blurted out, "maybe the universe is a hologram". There's an old saying from one of the Indian (subcontinent) religions -- "The universe is the dream of the Gods, and the Gods are the dream of man." ;')

I was examining a grain of sand under a microscope and saw what appeared to be a bunch of little things moving around. I turned up the power to examine it more closely and saw myself examining a grain of sand under a microscope. Heh.

I heard it said once that if your arm was long enough, you could reach straight out into the cosmos, beyond the galaxies and scratch yourself on the back. Torus universe, I guess, where the past is re-cycled into the top of the hourglass, the resorvoir of the future.

Okay, here's the question: Is it 'chicken/egg/chicken' or 'egg/chicken/egg?'

Joking aside, I think it's logical that all of creation would exist within the 'mind' of the Creator, in the same manner as the stuff of dreams would exist within the mind of the dreamer.

I think there is a reference to that in the Bible. 'In Him, we live, and move, and have our being.' So I think your statement about dreams would fit into that.

So we have the 'thinker,' the 'thought,' and the expression of the thought. That would make the material universe the expression. The dream. The hologram. Right?
