About Microcron, Owusu-Ankomah explains:

“Microcron: A simple definition and description of parts of a whole, One Entity in its energy, power and might.

A star, a solar system, our sun is a star. The Milky Way, our galaxy consists of approximately four hundred billion stars. There are trillions of galaxies in our universe. There is an infinity of universes. Our universe is one of a circular constellation of twelve universes that make up a Multiverse. There is an infinity of Multiverses that culminate into a spherical ball of light called the PRE-MICRO. A circular constellation of twelve PRE-MICRO makes up a MICRO. A circular constellation of twelve MICRO becomes a MICRON. A circular constellation of twelve MICRON becomes a MICROCRON. Sprawled, strewn across and throughout the infinity of space, ever deep and deeper infinite space, the void, are infinity of infinities of Microcron. Consciousness is projected by Unconditional Love. Unconditional Love is Spirit. Creation is the manifestation of Consciousness. Unfolded within the Infinite and Eternal Self is the interconnectedness of souls in the Microcron.
Microcron is Unconditional Love.”.
