It's not a bad thing if SR makes no sense. SR is a belief system that places you true identity with consciousness and not your human mind/body. It can bake your noodle trying to grasp it, but it can offer some benefits to living your life, such as.....

People
Every person in your awareness is a part of you (consciousness) so there are no seperate people running around, it's all you. Because it's all you, the other people you create (yes, you create them) are the parts of you, that you desire to experience. So if you don't like someone, it's a part of you that you don't like. The interesting part of that is it's beneficial to know that person, because you can learn what it is about you, that you don't like.

Time
It's actually an illusion. Can you exist in the past or future? No, there is only ever this present moment, that's the only place you exist and that's the only place creation can happen. This is why all the PD gurus, say you must see your desires as already attained right now. Because you only exist in the moment, you can only create there. You don't create next week, or next year, you create everything right now.

You
You are not a human body with a mind walking around in a physical environment, you are consciousness and everything is inside you, including the body of an observer (human you) to observe what you are creating.

The universe, planets, space, 6 billion people.
None of these things exist all at once. Consciousness (you) are very powerful, but it doesn't have to render everything in it's awareness all the time. If you were on a space ship looking out a window at earth, then you have created that perception instantly to observe, but while doing that you're not in a cave in the earth observing the inside of a cave. It's the same with all the people on earth, can you ever observe them all at the same time? No, consciousness doesn't need to do that, so it doesn't.

Summary
SR places identity with consciousness, that is your true self. The body you observe through, while seemingly you, isn't the real you, it's just an observation point. It's important, but not fundamentally important as your true self, consciousness.

Nothing exists outside of conscious awareness. You only have to create and render whatever you choose to in your present moment awareness and that is the most exciting and challenging part..........because you're creating everything in your present moment awareness, that means you can create anything in your present moment awareness. Things like money, love, health, people, sky, rain and even annoying versions of you called telemarketers

Some people say that we can't see consciousness, but I don't agree, if you want to see it, just take a look around at your present moment awareness, everything there right now including you as the observer is consciousness. I find it helps to look at it as if it were a container of sorts, a structure with everything you observe inside it, including you observing it.

Consciousness is the container and everything inside it, but nothing outside of it, for nothing outside exists. You can bring anything into the container and make anything leave the container. You know it's your container, because you are the only one who is ever inside it 24/7.

It's your container, because you are consciousness, so what do you want to put inside it today? Love, money, sunny weather, pain, suffering?

It's all your choice, because it's all you

Enjoy!
