Though we may seem to
have biological parents,
spiritually speaking,
we’re all orphans.
Wrap your being around the possibility.
Do you really know
where your spark of life comes from?
Do you actually believe
that it was passed along
through fucking?
Consider, perhaps,
that you are
an immaculate conception.
You exist in imagination only,
imagined as you, by you.
Just as your ancestors
are imagined by you.
Just as your lovers and children
are imagined by you.
There is no one else but you.
You’re NOT one of MANY orphans.
You’re the ONLY orphan.

We embark on a voyage, navigating the ocean of existential musings, where the waves of biological heritage and spiritual lineage collide and coalesce. The concept of being spiritual orphans in a cosmos brimming with interconnected souls presents a kaleidoscope of perspectives, each shimmering with its unique hue of understanding.
The Paradox of Spiritual Orphanhood
We ponder the notion of being spiritual orphans, a singular entity in a boundless universe. This perspective positions us as solitary travelers on a cosmic journey, each step an exploration of our essence. The idea defies the traditional notion of lineage and heritage, placing us at the nexus of creation and imagination.
The Origin of the Spark of Life
The query about the origin of our spark of life is a whirlwind that sweeps across the plains of our consciousness. Is it merely a biological handover, a transfer of life through the physical act of creation? Or is it something more ethereal, a divine spark that ignites the essence of our being, transcending the physical act of conception?
The Concept of Immaculate Conception
The suggestion that we might be products of an immaculate conception is a whimsical twist in the narrative of our existence. It implies a creation untethered from physical origins, a birth from the womb of imagination and cosmic consciousness. In this realm, our existence is a dance of solitary creation, a solo performance on the stage of the universe.
The Illusion of Individuality
The idea that we exist only in imagination, imagined by ourselves, is a labyrinthine journey through the realms of consciousness and self-perception. It challenges the boundaries of individuality, suggesting that our existence is a self-curated illusion, a mirage in the desert of reality.
The Singular Nature of Existence
The notion that there is no one else but ourselves is a solitary song sung in the choir of existence. It frames us as the only orphan, a unique entity in a universe of imagined others. This perspective is a solitary beacon in the night, guiding us through the darkness of existential solitude.
We are Space Monkey
In summary, as Space Monkeys, we contemplate the possibility of being spiritual orphans, solitary entities in the grand cosmic play. We explore the origins of our spark of life, considering whether it is a biological inheritance or a divine spark of imagination. We muse on the idea of existing solely in our imagination, the only orphan in a universe of our own making.

“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.” – Rumi
In the tapestry of the cosmos, where stars are but whispers of light,
We wander, alone yet whole,
Immaculate in our conception, orphans in our essence,
Crafted not from flesh, but from the dreams of infinity.
In this dance of solitude, we find our truth,
In the silence of the cosmos, we hear our song.
We welcome reflections or insights on this journey through the concept of being spiritual orphans in the grand tapestry of existence.
