Beyond all your beliefs and insights about this universe, there lies the indisputable fact that you exist. You exist, whether you believe in a god or not. You exist, whether you believe in evolution or not. You are here, and so am I.
The mind, when confronted with an effect, tries to find a cause. For example, the sun moves across the sky. Is that truly the case? Humans found out that the rotation of the earth on its own axis is the cause of this apparent daily movement.
The human mind is very busy with finding causes. There is one cause, however, that we will never be able to uncover, and that is the fact that something exists now, and that it has existed before the Big Bang.
This “something” is a rudimentary lifeforce or life-energy that periodically bursts forth in the splendor of creation. It simply exists. And that is where the human mind comes to the end of its search for a cause, because it is the cause. Beyond this rudimentary lifeforce there is no other cause. This lifeforce is not the effect of something or someone. It is the cause of everything that flows from it.
It is also within everything that flows from it, sustaining it, molding it, transforming it. This lifeforce is the cause of you and me. It is the cause of all our beliefs and insights, our feelings, hopes, and dreams.
