I see what you are saying, and it's brilliant. We are all living here right now, and what we are living in is the finite. I am a finite version of a human and so are you, and with our finite consciousness we have seen what one situation is like but I can never know your situation because I would have to have lived your life exactly, and I don't have a dual consciousness to experience both my finite being and your finite being. But by observing my finite existence thus far I can get a grasp at how infinite consciousness could be because I know there are 6.5 billion others going on this very second and many billions more in the past. And if our universe goes on forever and eternity then that infinite consciousness would be real, just because I have realized those facts and correlated them to each other.

This is very good stuff, I believe that we are expanding our limited unlimited minds and spirits as we speak. Now that we realize this we are potential of being infinite but we are also an infinite amount of knowledge away from that. But if we do evolve in to being closer to God then that will definately help close the gap of our understanding. For some reason I know the infinite is attainable at a certain point much much later in our evolution.

As for now at my point in evolution of mind/body/spirit I am at the point where I am aware of my own finite existence and have gotten a small small glimpse of what the infinite is. So from there lets work on something larger than our own individual finiteness and work on a collective consciousness of our planet. If only we knew how to do that haha.

i can see that this finite reality we find ourselves in could be an illusion of some kind, dreaming might be closer to reality than reality. and im SURE i know very little of what there is to know. even though we cannot grasp the infinite itself we have the ability to see what infinity could be. the 6.5 billion people thinking every day and dreaming at night are only the ones that are here right now, not to mention all of the people throughout all history, and thats just people. we have shit going on inside of us automically, not to mention all of the other species and organisms down to the molecular level. i get it. the world is a complex place. and we can't ever know it all as an individual part of the whole, it is beyond our means.

but what i was trying to portray is that, actuality itself creates a barrier of attaining the infinite. in my opinion we are something with a window into this "reality" and givin where we find this viewing, we make assesments on how the world is composed. and that composition is one of finite entities. entities with limits. limits that cannot mearly be overcome by grasping what it would mean to be without those limits.

now i don't doubt that we a evolving into something closer to what "god" is. more complex softer more beautiful beings than the monkeys we once were. and technology is helping us exponentially expand our minds and our ability to learn.

but we are still bound to the physical realm, an imperfect place with a glance of perfection. we can see what a perfect circle is and we can obtain this flawless idea in our minds but when drawn in reality, the circle becomes flawed. there is no such thing as a perfect circle in this world. we can "say" it's perfect, but it carries flaws, as does the idea of an ACTUAL INFINITE.

Perhaps you can grasp the fact that you don't know anything in this finite illusion of Earth. Or you know very very little of what is possible to know. From there you can understand the concept of infinity, the concept of infinity is that it is not attainable as of yet. That is very easy to imagine, there are 6.5 billion humans on earth thinking new thoughts all of the time. How could you know all of those thoughts at once? We can't right now because of our limited abilities.

Our limited abilities are the only things holding us back, just like water (first density entity) can't be a predator, and animals (second density) can't build a city or government. We humans (third density) can't attain the infinite. The fourth density earth is coming soon and we shall have our abilities, of course our spirits wont be humans, they will be something new, maybe our form will just be the form of the co-creator of the universe, we will be co-creators or sub-creators under our earth and sun and galaxy and universe. But none the less we will be creators of the infinite.
