There is no escaping the burden of existence

I firmly believe in the idea that the universe is alive in itself, and conspires according to its will. Their interference is tacit and very subtle; You need to see the smallest details to understand. Right now as I write, miraculous coincidences have just happened. For example: being at the exact moment, in the exact place, at the exact time for something unpredictable to happen. I found a thousand dollars on the ground while walking in the middle of the night (briefly explaining).

You realize money is just paper we assign value to, right?

Yes, the universe is self organizing to more and more complexity and emergence.

You're right, it's a coincidence. There's nothing miraculous about it though. It's just a coincidence. Do you know how many people didn't find a thousand dollars at that time? Around 8.2 billion. Finding money, especially an amount that big, on the ground is very unlikely but not impossible. Take a large enough sample and you can be almost certain it happens to someone.

I think it's in our human nature to ascribe meaning to random events. It's just our way of coping with reality. If there was no meaning then life would be pointless, and that's what most people refuse to believe. They either believe something else or don't think about it at all.

The universe has created life and consciousness, both are part of the universe it is a question of definition.

What is ur definition of 1. life 2. Consciousness , without looking it it up just type an essay from just ur mind:

My definition of consciousness: a brain that has the ability to suffer long lasting constant unbearable pain . My definition
of life: Life is meaningless suffering. Life is a chemical reaction, DNA, cells. Chemicals randomly combined and evolved with the ability to replicate a cell. .

I bet many people will have different essays if they dont look the definitions up on the internet. Why different because these are subjective meaningless insignificant concepts not objectively important things. Imo The only reasons people think these 2 are objectively important is because evolution DNA and culture programmed their brains to think something as meaningless as life and consciousness are so important.

If you don't have life or consciousness you can't suffer unbearable pain . So why is It important to be able to suffer extremely ?

I totally agree and I see no contradiction to what I wrote. The universe also suffers because you suffer and you are part of it.

The evidence from empirical observations led me to this conclusion. There is an inhuman intelligence present in the universe capable of deliberating. From your perspective, this would be unacceptable; I understand, It's not something easy to believe.

I agree perfectly, this fit my panentheistic vision.
