Let's talk about Mars, and cosmic scale of consciousness.

What is faster than the speed of light?

If there is anything faster than the speed of light, I would say it is the conscioussness of one self. I am not talking about ant or a beatle consciousness but human. Obviously scale matters in universe. Human consciousness is very fast, and in a matter of fraction of a second you can reach the farthest planet on the edge of the known universe. You can call it imaginary, but nonetheless, I can ask you what is real? So far I could not find anything other than imaginary things, in my consciousness, hence, that is a false claim. Imagination is as real as everything we imagine, and likely the only thing which is real. "I thing therefore I am" - Rene Descartes.

But how about actual consciousness bound by miles, in the universe? What is the true expansion of human consciousness when we consider the cosmic scales. The Mars project proves us again and again, that human consciousness is still at the doorstep when we consider even the solar system. Only few hundred travelled to the space and even few, to the moon. Mars is just a dream still. At the rate of blowing up rockets, I even doubt that might happen or not. Since when an Amarican dream became obsessed with Mars? when we individually posess the fastest rocket on the planet by default fixed in the brain, I might consider this excessive.

Prisoners of mind.

Sometimes I weep silently in the mind when I realise I can only dream. I can only dream I would travel to mars. What about saturn? What about Jupiter. I can only dream I would travel great lakes of America, Honalulu Island, or Bora bora. If I expand the google earth now, I can see wonderful places where I must travel before I turn 60. Yet I can only dream its physically impossible to cover everything in a lifetime. I am sure If I sell my car today I might cover up ten places, but then I know, I will be still a prisoner of mind. I have not stepped out an inch from my brain. It is simply impossible. I carry my own little man to the edge of the universe, but my consciousness cannot be free from the burden, it carry. I can only dream of enlightenment, but its imaginary. I am just a part of the universal agenda, with a false idea of independence. I laugh in my sleep on imaginary boundries I created at the edge of my land. When true fact exist I havent stepped outside my six foot prison. I refuse to be narrow minded and see a value in it, try preserve it as long as I can, when I know even values are created in mind.

As you can see, these are two different opposing Ideas. When we look at it positively we can say human consciousness is fastet and most valueable thing on the universe. But on the other hand we can see the restrictions, like a prisoner, it tries to escape from its own constrains to become enlighted, liberated and free. And not knowing how to, it does various things. From feeding itself to travelling to Mars. If anything, I would dissect myself, not the universe to understand the nature of things. No point digging up another Oil well in a desert to fuel a tank to generate power to break through the space. I would sit in a one place by the edge of the lagoon watching a sunset and drifting clouds. Turning away from the society.

In society where, teachers teach, bricklayers lay bricks, Politicians lie, and Lawyers argue, How boring it is to break into a shop and loot for an apple phone in Florida? How boring it is to wrench a nut in an assembly line in China? How boring to climb a 40 foot tree to reach for a beehive, to steal some honey in Congo? I would not do that, not today. Consider myself lazy, but I would rather learn to eat grass, as I know nothing would satisfy myself. If the Greed is the guide for my unnecessary exsitance, I would starve this with boaringness of life, by just observing it.

What would you do? next year? Tomorrow ? Today? Now?
