How Big Are You?
-
Have you ever wondered where we come from and how we came into being?
Have you wondered how awesome is the universe and what is eternity?
Do you ever think how we fit into the big picture or think how great we are (sometimes)?
See the comparisons below and I am sure your mouth will open as the world is revealed to your amazement! Just say ‘wow’ as you view each picture.
THIS is fascinating – it’s rather dazzling to see it presented this way.
I CERTAINLY THOUGHT THIS WAS ENLIGHTENING. BEYOND OUR SUN . IT’S A BIG UNIVERSE.
ANTARES IS THE 15 TH BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY .
NOW HOW BIG ARE YOU?
—————————————————————–NOW TRY TO WRAP YOUR MIND AROUND THIS………
THIS IS A HUBBLE TELESCOPE ULTRA DEEP FIELD INFRARED VIEW OF COUNTLESS ’ENTIRE’ GALAXIES BILLIONS OF LIGHT-YEARS AWAY.
IT IS MORE THAN 1000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY.
BELOW IS A CLOSE-UP OF ONE OF THE DARKEST REGIONS OF THE
PHOTO ABOVE.
HUMBLING,
ISN’T IT?
NOW
HOW BIG ARE YOU?
AND HOW BIG ARE THE THINGS
THAT UPSET YOU TODAY?AND
HOW BIG IS YOUR GOD?
KEEP LIFE IN PERSPECTIVE.
AND DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF!
IT’S ALL UNDER CONTROL -
The universe is awesome. Our sun looks small when we compared it with another star.
But I think God deserved the credit of making the universe. No God no universe.

Nope, the universe is self evident, but can't say that of your claim.

Different ppl different beliefs. Christians believed God created it. -
I wonder why some christian likes to linger around forum topics that are not of God. Hmm... *wondering* I wonder what kind of reactions will i get if I go into a christian topic and say God does not exist?? (I must be dumb to do that) xDDDDDD!!!!!

The smallest cell in one's body feels similarly as awesome as the universal being perceived. It is still a very small portion of the entire vessel world (器世間). The living environment of a sentient being, e.g, a birdcage keeping a bird. In the karmic rebirth of this sentient being, assuming the life form of a bird is the main requital (æ£å ±), and the birdcage, its vessel world, is the reliance requital (ä¾�å ±).
vessel world - Three-Thousand Large Thousandfold World (三�大�世界). A galaxy, the educational district of a Buddha. It consists of a billion small worlds, each including a Mount Sumeru surrounded by four continents and interlaying circles of eight oceans and eight mountain ranges. One thousand such small worlds constitute a Small Thousandfold World. One thousand Small Thousandfold Worlds constitute a Medium Thousandfold World. Finally, one thousand Medium Thousandfold Worlds constitute a Large Thousandfold World. Therefore, Three-Thousand does not mean 3,000, but 1,000 raised to the power of 3, as described above. It can also mean that there are three kinds of Thousandfold World: small, medium, and large.
From the seeds stored in Ä�laya consciousness.true suchness (bhÅ«ta-tathatÄ�, 真如). The changeless true reality of all dharmas, the absolute truth that they have neither birth nor death. It has other names, including emptiness, true emptiness, ultimate emptiness, one appearance, one flavor, true reality, ultimate reality (bhÅ«ta-koá¹i), primal state, Buddha mind, true mind, inherent pure mind, the Thus-Come One (TathÄ�gata), the thus-come store (TathÄ�gata-garbha), vajra store, dharma-kÄ�ya, Buddha nature, dharma nature, dharma realm, the one true dharma realm, the highest truth (paramÄ�rtha), the great seal, and the great perfection. One’s body and mental states, and objects perceived as external, are all manifestations of one’s true mind, projected through causes and conditions from the pure, impure, and neutral seeds stored in Ä�laya consciousness.

Erm eternal hope gt ppl discussing karma and rebirth there also.Eternal hope many ppl there saying God don't exist also.
I think it's Ok to praise God in this thread for creating the universe.

I think its Ok to sometimes reflect and think about the trends of people's character and then check our own. People talk about things you don't agree in christian thread. So you come here and do the same. So... whats the difference between the both?? Boils down to one's character, not the beliefs whatsoever.
