Can I recommend Donald Hoffman’s lectures and discussions? They might correlate, as there seems to be common threads in his take to that of the general cosmology/consciousness model as the Theosophists and Rudolph Steiner (Waldorf Schools), which were summarily heavily influenced by ancient Indian mysticism among other branches.

Hoffman might give you a pretty good launching point for some of the scientific aspects as they relate as he apparently tries to keep up with what’s new in theoretical math and physics and how they relate to what we’re once purely metaphysical positions. (Ex. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplituhedron)

Some of it is purely awesome stuff. It’s easy to get swept away by it, so if you don’t want to rock your worldview it’s best to keep the work somewhat cordoned to its own intellectual space.

If nothing else it’s a fun thought experiment and some perspective.

Good luck in your pursuit.
