S: "You are the Universe" K: "Ah, sir, that's the most dangerous thing. That's the most dangerous thing to say"

well whatever k says and i respect him as a unique human being, it's true that we are the universe. Our biological bodies are part of this universe since there's no other way they could be, and the universe is infinite because otherwise, it wouldn't exist; if it's infinite, it's one, as if it wasn't one, it wouldn't be infinite, so we are actually the universe. There are laws that make it possible for this infinite universe to exist, and if the laws were different, the universe wouldn't be here, which is why it's perfect and has order. So the question is, "so what that we are the universe?" There is no other way of being anyway. As humans, which are part of the universe, we should understand the laws and work to improve our living conditions in accordance with this laws, or else we might face extinction as a species. And even if that happens, it doesn't mean we are not part of the universe and universe itself
