The universal self

The entire Universe is bound into one singular whole ,every point in the universe has the information for the whole universe but is manifested differently to make the universe as we perceive it, It can be compared to the way every cell in the human body contain the same DNA information yet it manifests itself varyingly for every body part, this can be taken as a gross way of interpreting the ever present eternal truth.The same can be compared to a hologram also, where every portion of the hologram contains the information for the entire hologram The consciousness that binds and guides all is described in the Isa Upanishad the verse ,

"Om purnamadah purnamidam purnaat purnamudachyate,
purnasya purnamadaya purnamevaavashishyate"

"That (pure consciousness) is full(perfect); this(the manifest universe of matter; of names and forms being maya) is full. This fullness has been projected from that fullness. When this fullness merges in that fullness, all that remains is fullness."
-Peace invocation- Isa Upanishad the verse
