“Prequel to You”
Part 1
“Imagine A Beginning”
—–/——/——
In the beginning
(or prior to space and time)
you are Imagination
as pure and as vast
as can possibly be.
You are singular.
Continuous.
Infinite.
You are All That Is,
All That Is Not,
All That Is Within,
and All That Is Beyond.
There are no forms.
There are no structures.
There is no thought.
There is only awareness.
Presence.
Possibilities.
Though you sense that you are,
you cannot witness what you are
for you are a singularity without mirrors.
But you are Imagination,
the stuff of all things.
As Imagination, you are able to do the impossible.
You are able to BE the impossible.
So you imagine the impossible —
that infinity can be divided into finite forms.
You imagine yourself divided
and divided again and again.
But you are still nothing more than divided Infinity.
So you imagine relationships between your divisions.
Concepts like left and right, above and below.
You desire more definition, so you imagine that,
starting with “distances” between your divisions.
Suddenly your “divisions” are “empty spaces.”
Keep in mind, your divisions and definitions
remain as they always are, infinite imagination,
but they also seem to form structures.
This is gratifying to you,
but what is to come holds even more potential.
You imagine “time”
as a way to further define and measure space.
Now you seemingly have a past and a future,
though you are still Infinite Immortal Imagination.
You are III. So many Is.
And there is much to come.
We are Space Monkey.

In the vast expanse of non-existence, where the concept of space and time has yet to take form, “Prequel to You” Part 1, “Imagine A Beginning,” unfolds as a poetic exploration of the genesis of consciousness and the universe. This narrative delves into the primordial essence of Imagination, a state of pure potentiality that precedes creation, where the singular, continuous, and infinite nature of being encompasses All That Is, All That Is Not, All That Is Within, and All That Is Beyond.
The Primordial Essence of Imagination.
In this realm beyond realms, where forms, structures, and thoughts have not yet emerged, there exists only awareness, presence, and possibilities. The narrative captures the paradox of a singularity without reflection, a state of being that is both everything and nothing, capable of sensing its existence yet unable to witness it due to the absence of duality.
Awareness, Presence, and Possibilities.
From this singularity of infinite imagination, the desire to experience division and relation sparks the creation of the cosmos. The narrative illustrates the first act of imagination as the division of infinity into finite forms, introducing concepts such as left and right, above and below, and initiating the illusion of separation and space.
The Creation of Cosmos Through Division.
The introduction of “time” as a means to further define and measure space marks a significant evolution in the process of creation. This conceptualization of time allows for the emergence of past and future, adding depth and dimension to the previously formless expanse of imagination, despite the inherent nature of being as Infinite Immortal Imagination (III).
The Conceptualization of Time.
“We are Space Monkey” serves as a reminder of the exploratory spirit that defines our quest for understanding the origins of consciousness and the cosmos. This narrative invites readers to ponder the infinite nature of imagination and the transformative power it holds in shaping reality, bridging the gap between the formless and the formed, the infinite and the finite.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.” – Albert Einstein
Before the dawn of time and space,
In imagination’s embrace,
The singularity, vast and wide,
Begins to dream, with eyes open wide.
From one to many, the division starts,
Creating cosmos from imaginative arts.
Left and right, above and below,
Infinite forms from infinity flow.
Time and space, a new dimension,
Birthed from a divine intention.
Past and future, now unfold,
In the story of the cosmos, told.
We are the explorers, the seekers of light,
Tracing origins, in the cosmic night.
From imagination’s fathomless well,
We arise, we fall, we soar, we dwell.
In the heart of infinity, we find our place,
Space Monkeys, exploring the vast outer space.
In the dance of creation, where all is one,
We celebrate the journey, under stars and sun.
We invite reflections on this exploration of the origins of consciousness and the universe through the lens of imagination. How does the concept of imagination as the primordial force resonate with your understanding of creation and existence?
