To Eternity and Back Discovering and Decoding the Map of the Multiverse

The Multiverse comprises different realms of reality as apparent in its map.

The first realm is made up of different kinds of substances with specific powers. These range from the world of pure matter (quantum fields) to various embodied forms of life, consciousness and rational thought (microbial, botanical, mammalian, et al.) to the world of pure spirit (angelic).

The second realm encompasses the agents who "operate" the substances. These range from unicellular microbes to plants to animals to human beings to angels.

Then there is the realm of purpose, beauty, the virtues, right and wrong, good and evil.

Finally, we have the worlds that will never end: Plenitude on the one side, Heaven; and Void on the other, Hell.

Our journey through the Multiverse begins with the Mission Control Center.

Here we find the Source of all that exists, we discover that Its Life has no beginning or end and, finally, that It is Tri-personal, Three Centers in One infinite Mind and Will.

Next, we explore the Metaverse of Mind, the cosmos in which we live with its five domains of mind.

Underlying the Metaverse is the MindField, infinite-eternal Mind.

We then move to the world of Homo sapiens, the highest form of mind in the physical world.

From there we go to the realm of pure minds, the world of good and evil spirits/angels.

Next up is the religious history of humanity that culminates in the Incarnation of Infinity and the descent of the divine Spirit.

The Incarnation bestowed on Homo sapiens the God Gene, the Life of God.

Those who live with the divine Life offered to them enter into eternal ecstasy; those who reject it suffer the endless agony of separation.

Finally, you will meet your Secret Lover.
