What if our brain is a prototype of the universe(or vice versa)?

Shayna,

Like you I was also intrigued by the parallels between the nervous system and the universe. How can we reinterpret the nervous system in the language of the universe? Are solar systems like neurons? What can each system teach/inform us about each other? Are planets nothing more thant constituent parts of a "Universal body" that can only barely be conceived?
