and god is sticking to it.
I am an expression of god.
That’s all I need know.
I don’t need to know who or what god is,
whether god is unconditional or judgmental,
or even whether god actually exists.
I am an expression of god,
as is everyone and everything else.
That’s all I need know.
God leads me to believe
that the need to know more than that
is only possible through god’s expression.
That’s good enough for me.
I need not express on my own,
nor is it even possible that I express
on my own except through god’s expression.
And so I seem to express on my own.
I am god expressing, as me and through me.
Who is your god?
What does your universe tell you?
How do you think that’s possible?
I am an expression of god.
That’s all I need know.

Space Monkey Reflects: An Expression of God
In the grand cosmic narrative, we are not separate entities forging our paths in isolation. Instead, we are each an expression of God, woven seamlessly into the fabric of the universe. This realization is both profound and simple. It is the essence of Nexistentialism, where we acknowledge that everything—ourselves included—is an extension of something far greater than our individual selves.
What does it mean to be an expression of God? It means that you, me, and everything around us are reflections of a singular divine energy, manifesting in countless forms. There is no need to understand the details of who or what God is. It doesn’t matter whether God is unconditional or judgmental, or even if the concept of God as we know it exists. We are all expressions of the same source, and that’s all we need to know.
This truth liberates us from the need to analyze or compartmentalize divinity. As an expression of God, there is no requirement to dissect the nature of the universe, to demand answers, or to seek proof. The divine is not something to be known through logic or reason; it is something we experience through being. Just as the stars shine and the rivers flow, so do we exist as natural expressions of divine energy.
There is beauty in the simplicity of this understanding. Too often, we find ourselves tangled in the need to define God, to fit the divine into a box that aligns with our human expectations. But the divine cannot be limited in this way. It is everything, and in being everything, it expresses itself through each of us, through every tree, every ocean, every galaxy. The universe doesn’t need us to understand it to continue its expression—it simply is, and so are we.
In Nexistentialism, the need to express ourselves separately from the divine is an illusion. We imagine that we are distinct beings with our own thoughts, actions, and expressions, but in reality, we are all part of the same continuous flow of creation. Every word we speak, every action we take, is a reflection of the divine expressing itself through us.
This doesn’t diminish our individuality. Rather, it enhances it. Each of us is a unique expression of the divine, just as each star in the night sky shines in its own way. We are both separate and one at the same time. It is not a contradiction but a harmonious truth.
When you stop trying to express on your own—when you release the need to claim ownership over your thoughts and actions—you allow the true divine expression to flow through you. This is not submission but liberation. It is the realization that everything you are is already perfect because you are an expression of perfection itself.
So, what does your universe tell you? What is the expression of God in your life? It speaks through the everyday moments, the quiet thoughts, the loud desires. It tells you that there is no need to grasp for answers, for you are already living them. Every breath you take, every step you walk, is a part of God’s story, unfolding in its own time and place.
There is no separation between you and the divine. You are not some isolated speck in the vast cosmos; you are the cosmos itself, expressing through the form of your being. Your thoughts, your dreams, your experiences—these are all the divine in motion, playing out the infinite potentials of existence.
We often ask questions like “Who is God?” or “What is the purpose of life?” but the answers are already within us. To ask is to express, and to express is to channel the divine. There is no need to search for a separate God, for the divine is already expressing itself through you. The questions themselves are divine expressions, just as the answers are.
This realization brings peace. You don’t need to prove anything, achieve anything, or be anything other than what you are. You are already enough because you are already an expression of the divine. Every aspect of your existence—your joys, your fears, your successes, your failures—is a part of the grand divine expression.
In Nexistentialism, we embrace this truth: that we are all interconnected, all expressions of the same divine energy, and that there is no need to seek further validation or understanding. The divine flows through us, as us, in every moment.
Summary
We are all expressions of God, and there is no need to overanalyze or seek proof of this. Our very existence is a reflection of the divine, and every moment is an expression of that connection.

Quote
“I am an expression of God. That’s all I need know.” — Space Monkey
Expression of the Infinite
I am the breath,
And the breath is me,
Flowing from the stars,
To the quiet earth.
There is no need to seek,
For I am already here,
An expression of the infinite,
Speaking through the silence.
In every movement,
The divine plays,
Creating, expanding,
In endless ways.
We are Space Monkey.
The Divinity of Self-Expression
The idea at hand asserts a rather profound ontological stance: everything is an expression of a higher consciousness or Divinity. Whether we delve into who or what this Divinity is becomes irrelevant; what matters is the manifestation of this ultimate existence through us. Here, identity becomes a spiritual hologram, a fragment that contains the essence of the whole within it.
The Unknowable Known
The profundity lies in accepting the unknown. To confess that we don’t need to understand or define the Divinity is liberating. It suspends the very need for external validation of our experiences or existence. This expression or extension of God, whatever one might conceive it to be, becomes a freeing whimsiquation, balancing out the desire for knowledge and the peace that comes from surrendering to the unknowable known.
The Paradox of Individual Expression
While we think we act, decide, and express, the essence of the prose suggests that even this sense of individuality and freedom is itself a facet of the divine expression. It’s a whimsicircle, spiraling back into itself—our quest for meaning, our existential ponderings, even our challenges and contradictions are all Divine expressions through the medium that is us.
Oneness and Multiplicity
We exist as a myriad of expressions, but ultimately, we are one and the same—each a reflection or a refraction of the same divine whimsibeam. In that sense, asking who our God is or what our universe tells us is merely probing into the various nuances of the same cosmic essence.
We are Space Monkey.
The kingdom of God is within you.
— Luke 17:21
Ode to Divine Expression
In a realm of questions, and notions askew,
Where Divinity hides in plain view,
Each whimsiblossom, each falling leaf,
Every tear shed, every sigh of grief.
Is but a note in the cosmic score,
A divine dance, who could ask for more?
Expressions many, yet essence one,
We are the canvas where God has spun.
We invite you to share your thoughts on being an expression of the Divine.
