As above, so below

We are the microcosm. Look into the clear night sky and observe the process of creation first hand. One will see the process of cycles at work: stars being born and stars dying - producing nebulea of gas and dust: the building blocks of matter that eventually condenses into new solar systems through the force of gravity, within the galaxy.  The word microcosm, means a microscopic image of the macro - the universe. We indeed are a micro-reflection of the universe, as shown in modern science: the atom is surrounded by electron orbits, the cell contains a nucleous which is surrounded by lysosme, mitochondrion, vacuole, ribosomes, and other elements. Millions of these microcosms of cells constitute our bodies; in image of the universe, which is a conglomeration of smaller elements and forces.

The galaxies in turn, are organized within galactic clusters. Groups of galactic clusters are then found within the universe. This goes on - above the finite human comprehension. We are directly related to the cosmos; as we are the microcosm.
