>>5569272Life is a word made up by limited human language to describe the quality of 'being', from the perspective of said limited beings. Therefore, what you're describing as a greater 'systemic life' does not apply here, and your statement is linguistically and sociologically untrue. Perhaps it would be helpful to say that although life IS possessed by singular consciousness, by extension, it is also possessed by the whole - since the universe cannot contain a property it does not itself possess.
