Based upon my lectures/blogs, what is this a picture of?
HINT: Look at the picture and imagine the universe as a 3-dimensional structure (Riemann sphere).
Remember: All knowledge dwells within you.

It looks to me, like the different levels of our consciousness, and in the center Nothing and Everything.

Hmmm… There are an infinite number of simultaneously valid yet contradictory answers to this question. ๐
Wisdom is knowing which one best serves the moment.
Possible responses…
1. The Center of our Universe
2. Home
3. Mother Divine
4. Branch of the Tree of Life
So, based on your hint, and a mathematical context, I like #1 the best, so #1 is my final answer… ๐
Would this be our own universe? I remember lectures about it being egg-shaped.
Maybe the center of the universe since all points in space are equally the center…?
A representation of one of the infinite structures that makes up my temporal existence.
Wouldn’t that be the galaxy at the center of the universe, based on every point in space being the center.
Hint: Think Lattice Structure
Were you looking for Unified Field….. ๐
Well, you clealy hinted at Reiman, supporting that every point of light and every point within are all equally at the center of the univers.
However, the spiral galaxy also suggest the tendency of consciousness to “Cluster” (or congregate, commune) toward a central “Convergience Point” …..
Now, since Astronomers currently believe the universe is expanding, I suppose you could also say this represents both the “Ezpansion” and the “Contraction” of nature, the universe….
Could you say “Clustering” is akin to contraction ?
I can’t stop, so I guess this picture is loaded with all of the knowledge of the universe, of existense….
I believe it is us!
Perhaps…. we are watching the rolling out of Atman becoming the limited I, and the back and fro (movement) becoming the lattice structure of karma.
I thought of a rose when I first looked at it….
The concept on mapping onto…
…perhaps consciousness…
I think it’s you Maharishi. At the center is a black hole pulling everything around it into the absolute. Around this center are stars, your students, convergence points that are beginning to shine themselves.
How about this: this is Vishnu, the effects of the absolute as perceived from the relative. The absolute itself is Shiva, the black hole, which is not visible. Around the black hole, matter is being sucked into the center and is therefore radiating light: Vishnu.
Ok…so everything at it’s essence is pure consciousness…and every thing maps onto every thing…so is it a pic of everything, anything and no thing….?
In my mind I can hear you saying… “a mathematically precise crystalline structure”…. “every point on the structure is the center”….”consciousness looked at itself and perceived itself as other”….”lightly etched on the surface of Being”…and, finally…”feel your way” Our galaxy with the Sun in the center????
the unified field… mapping
Hint 2: Think three dimensional spider web. Not that your comments are all incorrect, but I am looking for something specific here.
2 boxes or 3…. This is fun!
fells like a cosmic manger.
I would change the word ‘my’ to ‘our’ in my previous response…then agree with Logan that it is a gravitational convergence point, then recognize it is one of the infinite number of similar convergence points that exist spread out cosmically speaking more or less equidistant throughout our known though infinite universe, which perhaps then resembles the Lattice/Riemann structures you were asking us to consider and explore…and then agreeing with Marianne…This is fun!
Further, to me, the galaxy/gravitational convergence point shown here is a convergence of energy at the center of which is a black hole that exerts extreme gravitational attraction, to the point that virtually everything that enters its horizon is transformed into nothingness. I sometimes envision this black hole and what is beyond as the other side of the ‘big bang’ and see the entire process as a Lattice/Riemann structural representation of the infinite aspect of space/time/reality. That the ‘big bang’ is more like a bunch of ‘little big bangs’ simultaneously yet variably creating matter and anti matter in an infinite cycle across the ‘Universe.’ And the coolest thing is…we are here at this time, at this place…with these amazing souls in our midst, with whom we can enjoy these remarkable moments of awareness!
While this may not be the answer to your question Maharshi, I thank you for the mind/soul expansion this exercise has provided this particular creature. PS – somewhere therein I sense a vision of an absolute.
DNA?
“the cosmic egg”
That’s what I was going to say, DNA, but it seemed too simply.
