Space

Literally it means nothing, a vacuum between stars and planets. But by the same token it means everything. It's what connects all our worlds--

Captain Janeway continues delivering this monologue to admire and appreciate Space and the contribution of an 'earlier generation explorer' who her crew finds in an anamoly in space.

I love this monolgue ( a short one - but deeply impactful ), in episode 'One Small Step'. Kate Mulgrew does Captain Janeway very well; her's is a truly  fantastic performance. This talk also reminded me of a model on reality presented by scientist and spiritualist Vethathiri Maharishi of India.

According to my interpretation, he described the alimighty or reality to be a scientific, yet sentient phenomenon which holds everything in it. It is the subtlest, not easily un-felt force that holds everything. It is also love.

I started wondering if this would be true. It may be that many people  experience reality truly and describe the way they recognize to others. It may be that, what they felt or perceived is the same, but their interpretation  - the language - words they know and thus use to communicate make the experiences seemingly different!
