“You are not IN the universe, you ARE the universe, an intrinsic part
of it. Ultimately you are not a person, but a focal point where the
universe is becoming conscious of itself." - Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth

Scientists do not have a coherent definition of
'universe'.
Sadly, even theologians do not have one. Is a
god a part of a universe, or separate from a
universe? If separate, then isn't the 'uni'
or 'one' in 'universe' misnamed?
But when it comes to physicists, they have
built a great mystery over 'particles' and
'waves'.
However, 'point' and 'curve' have coherent
definitions in mathematics. Physicists
are confused however because they have
terms called 'particle' and 'wave' that
only have the look and feel of point and
curve. If physicists don't clearly define
their terms, then should they be surprised
if their terms are 'mysterious'?
The term 'universe' may very well be worse
however. Where does a 'universe' end and
a 'multiverse' start? They might as well
be talking gibberish.

although Bertrand Russel had a set paradox to this ...
Godhead is "the whole"?
