Many people ask me the same question: "What planet am I from?" I always lack the words to convey the absurdity of such a question. About 90% of souls aren't from this solar system, and about 70% aren't even from known constellations. It's easier to say that the soul came from outer space.

We need to be able to ask the right questions when it comes to our lives. Because the answer should solve some of your problems, change something, and transform something within you. Will knowing that you're from planet Tegucearan 329 change your life, or even move anything forward?
Looking at the vastness of the universe, one can only understand one thing: we can know nothing and are responsible for nothing except what's right under our noses. How can even an enlightened being know anything in such a vast universe? Yes, the macrocosm is a microcosm within us, but that doesn't make it any more comprehensible or understandable for us. Comprehending it internally or externally does not diminish its immensity. Therefore, being so small—not even a grain of sand in the universe—you should pay attention to what's in front of you, not somewhere far away. This is better understood when a person comprehends the vastness of the universe.

The truth is that the further you delve into the expansion and understanding of the great, the more you begin to appreciate the simple things around you, which the average person runs from, not considering them spiritual. ;-)
This doesn't mean you shouldn't be interested in where your soul came from, how it all began, and so on. It means that names and labels won't give you this. The desire for knowledge itself always leads to only one thing, such an expansion of consciousness that all boundaries disappear, and at that moment, things finally become as they are. A table is a table, nothing more, nothing less, there is no other meaning to it, all the greatness and goodness is in the fact that it exists and stands right in front of you, and that is the whole cosmos…
