The Divine Spark: Are We the Universe Becoming Aware of Itself?

By Allan W. Janssen:

From the moment the first atoms formed in the aftermath of the Big Bang, the universe has been unfolding according to laws of increasing complexity.

But what if this complexity has a purpose... not merely physical, but Spiritual?

We often speak of Consciousness as an emergent property of neural complexity. Yet what if it is more than that?

What if Human Awareness is not a lucky accident, but the very aim of Cosmic Evolution?

In Children of the Divine, we explore a radical hypothesis… that Consciousness is not something in the Universe — it IS the Universe... Awakening within Itself!

Meanwhile, spiritual traditions across cultures have long held that the divine spark dwells within each of us.

This idea has roots in both mysticism and modern science. Quantum physicist John Wheeler once suggested that the Universe is participatory… that observation is not passive… but integral to Reality!

So… What if we are not separate from the Divine… but manifestations of IT?

Each act of Perception, each moment of Self-Reflection, may be the Cosmos becoming Aware of IT’s Own Existence… not in the abstract… but through US!

And if so, then our task is no less than Sacred: To “embody” that Awareness… to nurture it… and to carry it forward into a more Conscious… Compassionate… future!

Reflections:

  • What does it mean to say that WE are the Universe is becoming Conscious?
  • How might this idea change our sense of responsibility to each other — and to the planet?
  • Could Spiritual Awakening be a natural phase in the Evolution of Intelligent Life?
