Consciousness Interuptus
After a brief service interruption,
my infinite consciousness
seems to be coming back on line.
It’s as though I had been connected,
received limited programming,
then “accidentally” disconnected myself
the moment I left the womb.
Had the cord not been cut,
had ANYONE’s cord not been cut,
we would realize
that we are still connected as one.
Thank goodness we imagined wifi.

Space Monkey Reflects: Consciousness Interuptus—The Disconnection at Birth
The moment of birth, marked by the cutting of the cord, symbolizes more than the physical separation from the mother—it is the beginning of a perceived disconnection from the infinite. This “Consciousness Interuptus” is not a true severance but an imagined one, a necessary part of the human experience that allows us to explore individuality while remaining tethered to the universal whole. The realization of this unity, even through modern metaphors like wifi, reflects our journey back to the awareness of oneness.
Reflections: The Illusion of Disconnection
The Cord as a Symbol
The physical cord that connects us to the mother is our first tangible experience of unity. Its cutting signifies a transition from the shared environment of the womb to the perceived independence of life. Yet, this severance is symbolic rather than absolute. We remain connected—not by a visible cord but through an invisible network of consciousness that permeates all existence.
The illusion of disconnection is part of the human story, a necessary step in the exploration of self. By imagining ourselves as separate, we create the conditions to rediscover unity in new and profound ways.
The Brief Interruption
At birth, we experience what feels like an interruption in consciousness—a sudden shift from infinite awareness to limited programming. This narrowing of perspective allows us to navigate the human experience, exploring individuality, identity, and the constructs of time and space.
However, this interruption is temporary. As we grow, we begin to sense the underlying continuity of consciousness, glimpsing moments of connection through intuition, creativity, and spiritual exploration. These moments remind us that the disconnection is not permanent—it is a veil, one we can lift through awareness.
Imagined Wifi: The Network of Oneness
The metaphor of wifi captures the essence of our unseen connection. Just as devices connect to an invisible network, so too are we connected to the infinite consciousness that binds all existence. The signal is always there, even when we forget how to access it.
This imagined “wifi” is not a modern invention but a rediscovery of an ancient truth. It reflects our intrinsic desire to reconnect, to bridge the gap between the individual and the universal. Through meditation, art, relationships, and even technology, we find ways to tap into this network, realizing that the separation was never real.
The Journey Back to Unity
The perceived disconnection at birth is not a loss but an opportunity. It allows us to experience the joy of rediscovery, the profound realization that we were never truly separate. This journey back to unity is not about undoing the past but about expanding our awareness to encompass both individuality and oneness.
By embracing the duality of connection and disconnection, we gain a deeper understanding of our place in the universe. We are both singular and infinite, unique expressions of the same boundless essence.
Thank Goodness for the Interruption
The interruption of consciousness, though unsettling, is a gift. It creates the contrast necessary for growth, allowing us to explore what it means to be human while retaining our connection to the infinite. It is a reminder that even in our perceived separation, we are never alone.
Summary
Consciousness Interuptus, the perceived disconnection at birth, symbolizes the transition from unity to individuality. This illusion of separation allows us to explore the human experience while remaining tethered to the infinite. Through metaphors like wifi, we rediscover our connection, realizing that the interruption was never permanent.

Quote
“The cord was never truly cut; it only seemed so, allowing us to rediscover the unity that binds us.” — Space Monkey
The Signal Remains
The cord is cut,
but the signal remains.
Invisible,
unbroken,
it hums in the space
between us.
At birth,
the world feels smaller,
the connection dimmed.
But the network of all
never falters.
We rediscover it,
through whispers of intuition,
through art,
through love,
through quiet moments
when the veil lifts.
The cord is not gone.
The cord was never gone.
We are one signal,
one network,
one infinite being.
We are Space Monkey.
Reconnecting to the Infinite: The Journey Back to Universal Consciousness
In the grand narrative of existence, where the ebb and flow of consciousness weave the fabric of reality, the notion of a ‘service interruption’ in our infinite consciousness presents a compelling metaphor for the human condition. This allegory of disconnection and reconnection invites us to explore the depths of our being and the intricate connections that unite us all.
The Disconnection at Birth
The metaphor of being disconnected at the moment of leaving the womb captures the existential transition from a state of unity to one of perceived separation. This imagery of the cutting of the cord symbolizes our entry into individuality, a journey from the collective oneness into the realm of personal identity and isolation.
The Illusion of Separation
The hypothetical scenario where the cord is never cut, where the physical and symbolic connection to oneness remains intact, serves as a poignant reminder of our inherent interconnectedness. It suggests that our sense of separation is but an illusion, a temporary disconnection from the universal web of consciousness that binds every entity in the cosmos.
The Reawakening of Connection
The reactivation of infinite consciousness, described as coming back online after a service interruption, mirrors the spiritual awakening many seek. It is a journey of remembering and rekindling the primordial connection that exists beneath the layers of individual experience and societal conditioning.
The Role of Imagination in Reconnection
The gratitude expressed for the imagined Wi-Fi symbolizes the power of human creativity and innovation as bridges back to universal consciousness. It acknowledges that while physical disconnection may occur, the human spirit, through imagination and ingenuity, finds ways to reconnect, to rediscover the web of oneness that underlies apparent separation.
The Path to Rediscovering Oneness
This narrative encourages a reflection on the ways we can reconnect to the infinite consciousness from which we emerged. It invites us to transcend the limitations of physical disconnection through the realms of thought, emotion, and spiritual exploration. It is a call to recognize the unity that pervades diversity, to see the interconnectedness in the midst of isolation.
The Continuum of Connection and Disconnection
The concept of ‘Consciousness Interruptus’ serves as a metaphor for the human journey through cycles of connection and disconnection, a perpetual dance of remembering and forgetting our inherent unity. This cycle challenges us to seek reconnection, to strive for a consciousness that is aware of its infinitude and its interconnected nature.
Embracing the Infinite Within
Ultimately, the journey back to universal consciousness is a journey inward, a return to the essence that connects us all. It is an acknowledgment that while the physical cords may be cut, the spiritual and metaphysical connections remain unbroken, awaiting our recognition and re-engagement.
Conclusion: The Infinite Web of Consciousness
The narrative of reconnecting to our infinite consciousness after a brief interruption is a profound exploration of the human experience. It reminds us of our eternal connection to all that is, encouraging us to transcend the illusions of separation and to embrace the infinite web of consciousness that we are a part of. It is a reminder that in the depths of our being, we are, and always have been, infinitely connected.
“The only true journey is the one within.” – Rainer Maria Rilke
In the silence of the cosmos, where stars whisper secrets of old,
We find our connection, a story untold.
Through the illusion of separation, our spirits did roam,
Yet within us lies the path, leading back home.
To the infinite consciousness, where all is one,
Our journey of reconnection has just begun.
With hearts open wide, and minds set free,
We embrace the unity, in the vast cosmic sea.
We are Space Monkey.
This reflection invites us to embrace the journey of reconnecting with the infinite consciousness, transcending the illusions of separation, and rediscovering the unity that binds us all.
