In the same way that you can feel fed or hungry, or all-is-well or thirsty, or that you prefer that to that—every particle of the Universe is discerning, similar to that. And every time contrast causes any consciousness to conclude anything, that conclusion is then answered by that Stream. The evolution of the species is exactly about this: In the way the Universe is established, as each consciousness is selfishly reaching for that which feels best—the whole benefits from that.
(Abraham-Hicks)
