INNERVATED INTEGUMENTS
INNERVATED INTEGUMENTS
Sunday, March 22, 2015
By Rev. Dr. Larry Delano Coleman
Waves and dots discerned by our astrophysicists emanate from unique loci of unknown provenance. Their loci or points of origin that send forth sound, heat, light, electromagnetism into space are all forms of “energy.”
These cosmic waves and dots fan far out into the nether reaches of infinity at light speed, forever.
They innervate us Earthlings, here on the outer edges of our Milky Way galaxy, billions of light years from their “homes”; then, they continue on as before.
We perceive these wave-dot emanations on our scientific instruments as effusions from stars, galaxies, supernovae, or perhaps from some hypothetical “Big Bang!” Yet, whence these true sources baffles us .
Perhaps, we project our own energy into space that innervates still others, billions of light years away.
Energy, we know through physics, is infinite, whether wave or dot. It changes forms, yet never dies. Earthlings are integuments of that cosmic energy, like all else, however clothed, masked, or marked.
All that is, was, or ever can be, then, is some form of infinite energy, some innervated integument.
