I'm going to begin at the beginning, well...before the beginning.
The top portions of our Model of Existence (i.e., the "Model") has three concepts:
- The "Singularity" is in the middle
- "Potential Units" are on the left
- "Cosmic Consciousness" on the right.
Singularity
Until recently, it was thought that before the Big Bang there was an instant where all the matter and energy in the Universe was concentrated into a single point called the initial singularity. The temperatures, densities, and energies of the Universe were infinitely large, and could have even coincided with the birth of time and space itself.Our Model uses the term singularity in a somewhat different way, although it also could have preceded time itself.* The Model proposes that everything new emerges (is created) from nothing the moment we experience it. The Singularity is composed of this Nothingness, which in turn, is the essence of everything material (energy and matter) in the Universe. Logically, that means there must be features (characteristics, qualities, properties) of the Singularity's Nothingness that is used to creates things. According to our Model, those features are Potential Units and Cosmic Consciousness.
Potential Units (PUs)
To have a physical reality, the most fundamental capability of the Singularity's Nothingness would, logically, have be the ability to become material things. That is, it must be able to create something from nothing. This means it must have Potential, which is the capacity to become or develop into something in the future [reference]. Potential is the influence (force) that makes cause and effect possible. So, the Singularity's Nothingness had to become imbued (permeated, infused) with such Potential.Our Model considers Potential to be a “pre-material” (not yet materialized) force that is spread throughout the Universe in infinitesimally small units ("packets") of nonactivated quanta. Quanta (also called "elementary particles) are the smallest entities science has found in the Universe and they have some very strange qualities/properties.**
The Laws of Nature guide the process by which these Potential Units (PUs) become actualized (manifested, materialized) into tangible/perceivable reality. Our Model categorizes these laws as having Creative, Organizational and Functional aspects, along with Polarity (intertwined opposites).*** These four aspects of PUs will be discussed in a subsequent post.
Let's now briefly examine the process by which the PUs are activated and transformed by consciousness into the reality experienced all living forms.
Cosmic Consciousness (CC)
The third concept in our Model is Cosmic Consciousness (CC), which could be considered a force of God if you'd like. CC has an inherent and indestructible connection with (linkage to) the Individual Consciousnesses (ICs) of living things.Our Model defines CC (and its ICs) as nonmaterial entities with aspects of mind and awareness. The Model makes the following propositions:
- CC created the Singularity and its PUs, as well as space-time and the Laws of Nature
- CC supplies the Life Force to all living things, including microscopic organism, insects, humans and other animals, as well as plants and trees, etc.
- CC enables living things to have physical forms, awareness, perceptions, experiences and behaviors
- A characteristic of CC is its a nonmaterial Universal Mind (that some people could consider the Mind of God)
- The minds of certain life forms interact with their brains, sense organs, and nervous systems to give them the ability to think, reason, sense, imagine, and feel emotions
- CC and its ICs exchange information through their minds which functioning as "transceivers;" this process will be discussed in the next post
- CC also materializes the forms (structures and boundaries) of inanimate objects.
- The mind of a life form’s IC functions as a transceiver that exchanges information with CC via the feedback loops:
- Intuitive information is transmitted from the CC to each IC to provide a form of understanding without reasoning (a hunch, gut feeling, instinctive knowledge).
- ICs transmit their (conscious and subconscious) experiences to the CC and other ICs. This experiential information includes mental beliefs, thoughts, knowledge, sensations, memories, and the perceptions of recognized objects, as well as emotional responses and behavioral (re)actions.
- The purpose of life is to enrich CC's Mind through experiential feedback from the mind of each IC and the feedback ICs receive from CC enables life to experience.

Footnotes
* Time is strange. The past, present and future are concepts that we construct in our minds. It's illogical to say there could be anything before time began because you need time to have any before. And time has strange properties, e.g., time is related to space (called space-time), which makes it runs slower in stronger gravity (because gravity curves space-time) and when compared to something traveling at very high speed. Time can described as a mental (mathematical) construct dependent on memory, rather than an actual thing.

** This related to the field of Quantum Physics (Quantum Mechanics). It's abstract and complex, but very interesting, imo. Here are a few links to introductory videos:

*** Polarity is the state of having two opposite or contradictory (intertwined opposites such as magnetism).
