The weight of being everything seems unbearable (and lonely for that matter).
 Quoting: Breadsticks


i think that's why we have limited our perspective. it was boring to be everything, know everything. you still are, you just don't know it right now and so many people aim to become something they already are even though they didn't want to be that way anymore in the first place.
 Quoting: AWinterShadow


I've always thought about things in this context. An analogy might be that we were originally white light but then fragmented into different colors.

However, no matter how singular or transcendent our perspective may be, it is still nothing more than perspective. We can use the word "everything" and "all" but those are only ideas and they begin to abstract as soon as we think or say them. What about reality that is beyond our perspective (language, sense organs, etc)?

Obviously, it is fruitless to think about it... its beyond unthinkable. But at the same time, it makes me hesitant to say that I am all. I can say that I am my perspective, and that I cannot perceive beyond my psyche, but to say that I am "all" or any other word, it might be useful in a poetic sense, but otherwise its just a one-sided absolutism. As soon as I say "I am all" I am limiting myself to my conception of "all" haha. I find it to be a funny paradox.
