So what have we learned on this cosmic journey exploring life, death and who we are from a cosmic perspective, let's summarize some of our major insights. The first insight is that more than anything else, the universe is a process of continuous change. In other words, the deeper nature of the universe that we are part of is made of change. The nature of everything has changed. So seeing this at work in our lives, can help us navigate change and transformation more gracefully. The second insight is that the universe is therefore not made of matter, but of creative process.

In other words, the world around us has made a creative change itself, always manifesting itself in a brilliant array of new forms and possibilities. This means that creativity is not limited to the human realm, but is inherent to the cosmos itself. So we always have access to this creative potential of the universe as a source of interest. perspective. Insight number three is that happiness comes from participating fully in our cosmic nature and heritage. Embracing ourselves as part of this larger perspective is an enduring way of generating happiness that is not limited to any particular situation or achievement.

Simply being who we are in an easy and natural way, is both a way of honoring our uniqueness as a particular expression of the cosmos, and a source of true contentment. The fourth insight is that our lives are interwoven with the life of the cosmos. Our lives are particular expressions of a cosmic perspective, no less than the flow of energy from the sun, or the rings of Saturn. When we see this, we can relax knowing that there are larger force that work in our lives, and that our lives are filled with a larger perspective and sense of meaning. The fifth insight is that we are each unique centers of experience in action for the universe. When we recognize that it is the universe, living life through us and as us We have the potential to be conduits of action, something much larger to express itself through our lives.

Insight number six is that the powers and dynamics of the universe find their expression through us in our lives. We are connected in every part of our being to the forces and dynamics that gave birth to and sustain the cosmos. In every moment. We are the cosmos embodied in human form. And this can be a tremendous source of empowerment and perspective, and navigating the challenges that life can bring us. We conclude this course with a few suggestions for cultivating a life based on deep trust and align with a cosmic perspective.

The first is that your life is inseparable from the life of the cosmos. Also remember that each of us is unique expression of the entire cosmic process. When things happen, try to be open and transparent to whatever life brings you. Remember That change can be an opportunity for transformation. Also, when the going gets hard, try to be grateful. And when all else fails, relax and enjoy the ride.

Thanks for participating in this course and all the best wishes.
