Meditating on cosmic consciousness 2

I am currently exploring the connection between cosmic consciousness and material matters...

If you believe in the cosmic consciousness running like one bicycle wheel with the other wheel made up of the material, physical universe, and the two operating along the path of 'big-bang - big-crunch' on constant repeat, then you can contemplate the possibility of déjà vu stemming from a former happening having happened in a former universe to a former you, rather than it stemming from dreamtime-gained spiritual precognition.

Which leads which? Is it a parallel movement, or does one start the other shifting? Does the material shift between each of the two sequences of big bang and big crunch produce a likeness within the cosmic consciousness, or vice versa? If the mobility of the cosmic consciousness directs the cause of the material universe, then this could be the 'reason' for the big bang and big crunch changing over that scientists cannot locate.

If this is the process involved, then the Buddhist acknowledgment of no-self and cosmic unity would appear to be that which turns the physical and spiritual expansion into the return to unity, both within the levels of mind and the physical planetary systems.

(There is obviously much more analytical meditation for me to do, but these are my current areas of investigation.)
