Foreigners And Oneness

Orion Shall Rise, CHAPTER SIX.

Foreigners that visit the Domain ruled by Skyholm:

Maurai

Northwesterners

Mericans

Beneghalis

Mong

By now, we are familiar with all these groups. The Maurai sequence becomes a substantial future history series.

Talence Jovain Aurillac, a Gaean, says:

"'Gaea is not Deu. Gaea is the life on Earth. There must be other living worlds, and there may well be an ultimate cosmic Oneness, but the universe is too big and strange for us.'" (2, p. 84)

The cosmos is One because it is a universe. Mystics have intuited its Oneness since the Upanishads. The universe is bigger than us and is strange in the sense that it differs from our immediate environment as we have evolved to perceive and conceptualize it. However, it is not beyond the ability of human scientists to comprehend the universe.

If there are two or more completely unrelated existent realms, then the inhabitants of any such realm cannot be affected by any of the others and cannot even know that they exist because to confirm their existence would be to interact with them. A multiverse would be a trans-cosmic oneness.
