Hey thanks for dropping by! Sorry I didn't fully focus on talking about the important things you were asking, still realizing the need for priorities regarding what I do while I stream when several people are watching.
I definitely agree, the greatest truth is spiritual in nature and the physical world is a reflection of how that works. Love the terms "a reflection or a shadow" to describe it. My work essentially concludes that God is Infinite, and that that ultimate truth is God; meaning, rather than a hypothetical or a belief or non-belief, God is. As we are God as well (albeit a seemingly "limited" version compared to "The All), consciousness interacts precisely in the same ways as the laws of physics. This is why actual understanding of physics is so vital (opposed to QM/GR/Big Bang fallacies), as it allows for actual connections to be made that open up many levels of understanding regarding consciousness. I don't believe that there is a "first", but rather it is a back-and-forth technique of considering the spiritual realm and the physical realm, repetitively going back and forth to expand upon connections and further understanding in each simultaneously. This is akin to a wave having two segments (spiritual and physical) where essentially one occurs then the other within a period of time, vs. a wave having many peaks and troughs across the same length. Which can be synonymous with the electromagnetic spectrum; high energy is very high frequency (back and forth between spiritual and physical like gamma-rays) whereas low energies are very low frequencies (like radio waves).
Just some thoughts. I actually never had that specific thought I just mentioned, which I think is a good analogy to draw upon as growth of consciousness is a matter of whether our input energy is higher than our steady-state so as to cause growth. Optimally, we reach a point where both are considered simultaneously which is alike to an "infinite" energy wave.
Thanks a lot for your interest and comments! I really appreciate it and definitely think that understanding the physical nature of things without the corresponding understanding of the spiritual realm is nothing, as this would be like the opposite end of the spectrum of waves, at the lowest of energies. And, simply put, a complete lack of awareness to what is real.
