“It’s wrapped in science-sounding language, whispered through education systems, media, and modern culture: “You’re just a speck on a rock, spinning around a star, in a random universe with no meaning.”

“It’s a worldview that strips life of purpose, beauty of depth, and existence of any real connection. But here’s the thing: this lie didn’t come from science - it came from how people chose to interpret it.

“Yes, the universe is vast. But being vast doesn’t mean you are meaningless. A tree doesn’t question the sky’s size—it grows toward it . The ancient ones—before satellites, before equations—already knew they were part of something cosmic, sacred, intelligent. They didn’t feel small looking at the stars—they felt woven into them.

“The real truth is:

• You’re not just in the universe—you are the universe, conscious of itself.

• You are life, aware of life.

• You are not “just human.” You are part of the source that moves through everything.

“But if people believe the lie of insignificance, they become easier to control. They accept empty systems. They chase distractions. They forget their power, their intuition, their connection to the land, to each other, to the source. So yeah—space might be vast. But your spirit? Your awareness? Far vaster .”

And the post has provoked many people to agree. User @oddeidolon wrote: “From a spiritual perspective... It's spot-on. LOL.” Mountainbranch added: “Instantly recognised this as Alan Watts. Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence.”

But not everyone was convinced. user arbiter12 wrote: "Sounds to me like what a college student would say to an art girl he's trying to pick up.

"You are small.... That makes you the biggest part of it all. You, the infinity of the universe.... You can choose to see it as separate, or you can choose to be a part of it....to be one with it. There is no need to fight the flow when you are the flow..."

"Wooooow.... you're really deep"

"The mind is far deeper...there are more moves in the game of Go than there are atoms in the observable universe....we are so much more than what the eyes can see."
