User: What is the nature of the universe?
Weegy:
The Nature of the Universe?Some religions teach the natural creation is an illusion; others teach it is real. Some teach that it has a divine essence; others teach it is separate from God. [ The various views are defined as follows:
Dualism: the concept that the universe is composed of two distinct parts?mind and matter, or "being" and "non-being"?and that there is a distinct difference and separation between the Creator and his creation.
Monism: the concept that all things in the universe, natural and spiritual, are of one essential substance. Monism is usually married to the concept of pantheism. If "All is One" (monism) it is only logical that "All is God" (pantheism). There are three types of monism?the belief that the universe is: (1) Purely Mental; (2) Purely Physical; (3) A Mixture of Both Views.
Monistic Theism: a blend between monism and dualism. According to this view, during the soul?s evolution, God temporarily ?appears? to be transcendent, separate from creation and from us. Ultimately, all things will blend together in undifferentiated, monistic oneness. In monistic theism God is both transcendent and immanent. This allows for a personal relationship with God on the way to an undifferentiated union with an impersonal God. ]

Ultimate reality is "something that is the supreme, final, and fundamental power in all reality". This heavily overlaps with the concept of the Absolute in certain philosophies.
