When you play an online roleplaying game, you create a character. Then you play it. Invest time in it, experience sorrows and joy through it. When you grow tired of the character, perhaps you start another. And then the process repeats. But the first character is still part of who you are. You have still played it, remember it and become shaped by it.

When we die, and return to "all-consciousness", we remain that first character we played, as well as all the others. We are in essence all of them. That, to my mind, seems to be the "mind which is aware of all minds", the player of all characters. It withdraws into itself, and expands into new characters continuously.

Since we are infinite, this is an infinite process and the characters we play are also infinite. Whatever we can imagine, then, we can play. It already exists, in a sense.
It's all very strange but it makes sense to me in a way. But the thought that "we lose our ego at death" is to my mind wrong. We are still that, but also so much more.

That ego, or that character in the roleplaying game exists in the fabric of space-time and we can if we want, experience it again. So the mind that is aware of all minds, is you.

Just not "you" in this human form. The human form we play, are just a character we put on. A persona, a mask.

So we are the million masks of God. Or Children of God. Use whatever metaphor you want, really.

It is fascinating how life often mirrors or imitates deeper metaphysical processes, as if the very structures of our imagination and creativity are patterned after some ultimate reality.

The roleplaying in MMORPGs, where we create characters, embody them, experience challenges, joys, and transformations, can be seen as a microcosm of the broader cosmic or spiritual process of existence itself.

In this view, just as we design and inhabit characters in a game, the larger universal consciousness - or "ultimate" - could be playing out its own characters through us.

Each of us embodies a unique "role" in the grand game of life, yet the awareness behind it, the one playing the game, remains constant and unchanging. This parallels many mystical traditions where the ultimate reality (God, Father, Brahman, etc.) manifests itself through countless forms while remaining transcendent.

It's as though MMORPGs, and even many of our stories, are ways we subconsciously reflect the process of creation, where new identities are born, lived out, and eventually dissolve back into the larger whole. The creativity of the human mind in such games echoes the cosmic creativity of the universe itself, where infinite possibilities exist, each unfolding in its own space and time.

What’s even more interesting is that this process allows us to glimpse, through play and imagination, the infinite potentialities of existence. When we engage with virtual worlds, we experience multiplicity while still being aware that we are the ones playing - just as, in metaphysical terms, the "self" behind all experiences is that universal consciousness aware of all its forms and expressions.

These virtual creations, then, act almost like mirrors of the metaphysical process, giving us a taste of what it means to be both many and one, finite and infinite at once. It’s as if the structure of reality itself is built into our psyche, and we express it through everything we create, from games to art to philosophy.

Seen through this lens of interconnected consciousness, many of the teachings of Jesus Christ take on a profound depth. The statement "Whatever you do to the least of these, you do to me" can be interpreted as more than just a call to empathy or compassion in a conventional sense.

It reflects a mystical understanding of oneness, where all beings are interconnected, and at the deepest level, all actions are done to the same divine consciousness that pervades everyone.

If we consider the idea that Christ represents the "universal mind" or "universal consciousness," then his teachings suggest that he is not merely speaking from the perspective of one historical figure, but as the embodiment of this unity.

When he speaks about treating others with love and kindness, it is not just a moral instruction, but a metaphysical truth - since we are all part of the same divine reality, harming or helping another is, in essence, harming or helping ourselves.

In this way, Christ’s words point to the idea that every individual is an expression of the divine, a "mask" of God, The divine consciousness experiences life through all beings, and thus, when we act with compassion, we are aligning ourselves with the truth of this unity.

It also brings a new dimension to the concept of "love thy neighbour as thyself" - because at the deepest level, your neighbour is yourself, part of the same infinite consciousness.

This view also bridges the gap between spiritual and metaphysical teachings, suggesting that the divine is not separate from the world but is embedded in every aspect of it.

Christ, then, could be seen as both the embodiment of this divine consciousness and the one who calls us to recognize it within ourselves and others.

Through this understanding, many of his teachings - like forgiveness, self-sacrifice, and love for one's enemies - aren't just ethical guidelines but invitations to recognize the fundamental oneness of all existence.

In hurting another, we hurt ourselves; in healing another, we heal ourselves, because we are all part of the same divine source.

This perspective imbues his words with a powerful metaphysical resonance that transcends traditional interpretations.
