You are seeing what you see through your mind, but the mind cannot see beyond what the mind see's, your little package that is wrapped up in skin, is designed to feel separate, so as to live your life as a so called human being. This universal consciousness is all there is, this consciousness isn't within us, we are within it, and we are not separate from it, if we were then there would be something outside of the universe, outside of consciousness, but there isn't, its all an illusion, and it can be a beautiful illusion if we realize it is an illusion, it becomes a game, we no longer take life so serious, this is what is known as enlightenment, or awakening.
emphasis mine

I wouldn't argue that we or I are separate from the universe. We are all part of the universe. The atoms which make us up once make up other things and will make up other things again in due time. We can't see or understand the whole universe. --- That's as far as I can agree with you.

The universe does not appear to be working together. There is certainly is no sign of any "universal consciousness." This has nothing to do with whether we take life seriously or not. It has to do with complete lack of evidence of either universal cooperation or consciousness.

As you agreed we are all part of the universe, this wholeness is what I call Universal Consciousness, everything works together, we as humans usually try to work against the universe or nature, we think we can improve it, which is silly. The cosmos is aware of its SELF, but not in the way we think it is, or own awareness or self conscious is nothing more than the mind that has been conditioned, this conditioning is what is known as the ego, the ego doesn't want to be anything other than itself, so to try and understand this wholeness is going against the ego, for then it becomes insignificant.

I think quantum science is getting close to understanding the fundamentals of what I am trying to explain, that is that everything is connected as one. This oneness was known by Mystics many years ago, and there are today many Mystic's that are starting to realize this also, again quantum science being one.
