The Omega Point: A Brief Commentary


Conceptual impressions surrounding this post are yet to be substantiated, corroborated, confirmed or woven into a larger argument, context or network.

It soon becomes apparent that the concept of the Omega Point is a reflection of Teilhard de Chardin’s view of the events and experiences of his life from the position of a Jesuit priest, paleontologist and geologist. His attempt to reconcile his religious beliefs with that of science is a noble one, while his arguments concerning the concept of the Omega Point remain within the parameters of a cherished theology.

Teilhard appears to have been conflicted between his deep-seated faith and his objective rational mind, a circumstance that requires a high degree of compromise between facts, observation, awareness and dogma. The teachings of the faith have been brought into conflict with the observations surrounding his scientific studies. This has created a series of arguments that long for recognition within the ideological demands of both camps. I believe his attempt to rationalize the concepts of evolution, the universe, God, etc. by means of mixing and matching the symbols and metaphors that correspond to science and religion have led his argument into a multitude of compromising situations.

Concerning the Law of Complexity/Consciousness: 
In my opinion the universe is both evolving and involving in a perpetual flux, an unpredictable unified field drawn into a wide variety of "states" of form and consciousness due to alterations and modifications caused by internal and contextual influences.

I believe that the concept of an Omega Point is position-less, a virtual and omnipresent origin that shelters a paradoxical “state” of awareness both within and beyond its own parameters. The concept surrounding an Omega Point involves an Intelligence, a holistic, complex and self-organizing system of agencies, i.e. a unified field that by means of its symbolic emergence creates, defines and brings into fruition the "ideas" we experience as consciousness. In this sense the concept of the Omega Point symbolizes a highly complex source that harbors the capacity to transcend and transform itself by means of agents that symbolically provide relative form and being-ness (awareness). The Omega Point is comparable to the Zero Point (Unit) which is given symbolic expression by means of a Unified field (Unity) we experience as consciousness. 

The concept of a single Omega Point cannot exist independent or separate from itself, but must be construed as part of a complex and fully integrated network symbolizing both the known and unknown. In essence, the Omega Point is symbolically present in every "form" in and of the universe. Humanity describes this infinite singularity of presence as the universe.

The universe is supremely complex, self-organizing and beyond the capacity of humanity to imagine. What we cannot imagine fits under the category of the unknown. Every state that substantiates the universe retains the potential of being altered into another frame of reference, i.e. state, by means of a single or series of events, e.g. evolution and the archetypes, initiated by alterations in frequency, substance and/or context.

August 24, 2016 at 7:38 am, Peter B. Todd said:
"Jung and Teilhard de Chardin developed an evolving and mystical, Incarnational theology culminating in a Christ omega point or divine focus of mind. God is immanent in nature and transcending of it so that the universe and the divine are not ontologically equivalent and mind is as much a fundamental feature of Reality as is matter itself. In Teilhard’s thought, consciousness is the mirror, which the universe has evolved to reflect upon itself and in which its very existence is revealed in mathematical laws and in the internal world of the psyche. In a dual-aspect monist epistemology, mind and matter are complementary manifestations of an underlying holistic order, which is metaphysical in nature and expressions of a numinous principle implicit in cosmology and evolution. The Jung/ Pauli archetypes as cosmic ordering and regulating principles are analogous to the implicate order of physicist David Bohm and his colleagues Pavvo Pylkkänen and Basil Hiley. Both positions imply the demise of dogmatic physicalism (materialism) which has dominated Western science as an ideology masquerading as science for 400 years so that consciousness has causal efficacy in cultural evolution and in the re-sacralisation of global consciousness."
Being human is but one state of universal consciousness that from a theological point of view, has been "made in the image of God". This is but one POV designed about the subjective and collective experiences and events affecting the imagination of the species as a whole. Discussions and arguments concerning the mind cannot escape the fact that the "mind" is a concept harboring the idea of an imagination, i.e. the mind is a reflection of itself being symbolized by the very POV taken to describe and/or define it.  

According to Teilhard the Omega Point exists outside the framework of the universe, is irreversible, beyond the limitations of time and space and takes the position of the Christ, i.e. Light, to which everything in the universe is attracted. According to this POV the Omega Point remains an extension of Teilhard’s theology attempting to re-present itself in a more scientific fashion.

Beyond Design Imagining


Conceptual impressions surrounding this post are yet to be substantiated, corroborated, confirmed or woven into a larger argument, context  or network.

The imagination appears to be both purposeful and meaningful when observed and applied within the constraints of dimensional space and time. The virtual field that lies beyond the imagination, i.e. the unknown, is neutral in character. Meaningfulness and purposefulness are merely attributes we entrust to the universe from the perspective of 3D space/time.

“While the brain is a physical mechanism, the mind represents a brain process and is, itself, a non-physical field of information. While properties of physical matter, such as the brain, conform to the principles of Newtonian or classical physics, the operation of the mind’s energy fields employ the fundamental mechanics of quantum physics.” 
Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D., and Steve Bhaerman, Spontaneous Evolution, pg.269 https://www.brucelipton.com/books/spontaneous-evolution/ 

The unknown is a unified field that aligns with our consciousness by means of the correspondences we symbolically assign to it.  This phenomenon encompasses every scientific theory and anthropomorphic interpretation imagined to represent that which cannot be described. Such depictions appear as holographic reflections of our own consciousness as projected upon a multi-dimensional space/time universe where purpose meets resistance and meaning is without boundary.

Truths are revealed by virtue of a series of meaningful events and experiences appropriately arranged for the emergence of a creative knowing that trumps the constraints of the most imaginative mind.  Meaningful expressions of energy, light and in-form-ation seem to emerge from beyond space and time in the guise of a symbol or assembly of symbols, ushered into awareness by means of our intuitive imagination. Quite simply, design consciousness brings to awareness a meaningful state of “silent knowing” in the primordial struggle to resonate to the harmonics of a perpetually changing unknown.


True beauty is purposeful in time as it is timeless in meaning. 


"When we have learned through a period of finely honed training to live in Imaginative Thinking, when we can engage the whole of our being in this Imaginative Thinking, we find that it immerses us in a reality hitherto unknown to us."
Rudolf Steiner




“Just as the fisherman’s net can catch only fishes, but not the water that passes through it and even supports it, so the thinking mind can grasp only concepts, but not the awareness that perceives it as an object: the ‘water of awareness’ can never be detected by the net of the thinking mind.”




Everything is imagined. It's the only way you can truly observe it.
