Since when has life actually existed? Has it always existed, or is it merely the result of seemingly fortunate coincidences? The same question can be applied to the universe: since when has our cosmos actually existed? Has it always existed, or did it originate? Did everything really only emerge from a Big Bang? But if that were the case, what was there before the Big Bang, and is it even possible that our entire universe arose from a supposed nothingness? Even common sense tells us: nothing can ever come from nothing, and this is precisely where one of the deepest truths of our existence begins.


For thousands of years, humanity has grappled with these fundamental questions of life, and the question of when the universe began is among the oldest of all. Modern science believes it has found an answer with the Big Bang, but this explanation leaves open the crucial question: where did that first cause originate? For even if there was a colossal point of unimaginable density at the beginning, it must have arisen from something. Matter cannot have created itself, and so any honest search inevitably leads us beyond the material realm, to a primordial ground that lies beyond space and time.

Cosmic spiral galaxy as a symbol of the infinite universe The material universe we know is finite, yet it extends into infinite space. And it is not the only one, for on the contrary, there are infinitely many universes, each one bordering the next. We are speaking here of the multiverse, the realm of countless parallel universes. Since there are thus infinitely many universes, there are also infinitely many galaxies, infinitely many solar systems, infinitely many planets; indeed, one could even say that there is infinite life, in a diversity that our human minds can scarcely comprehend.

A creation without beginning and without end

Furthermore, all these universes exist within an even larger system, which in turn borders countless such systems, each surrounded by an even more comprehensive system. This principle can be repeated infinitely, both outwardly and inwardly. Whether we look into the macrocosm of stars or the microcosm of the smallest particles, the deeper we delve into these worlds, the more clearly we realize that they contain no end. Creation knows neither an outermost boundary nor the smallest building block; in its very essence, it is boundless.

It is precisely at this point that the weakness of any purely materialistic worldview becomes apparent. As long as we consider only what is visible and tangible, we fall into an endless regression, for behind every cause lies another. The solution to this apparent riddle lies not in matter itself, but in that subtle, immaterial universe that precedes and underlies everything visible. This immaterial universe never began, for it is the eternal ground from which all that is material unfolds.

Consciousness is the origin of all existence.

The Earth in the cosmos as a symbol of all-encompassing consciousness There is a force that shapes the immaterial universe and represents our true origin, and this force is consciousness. Everything that exists is ultimately just an expression of consciousness and the thought processes that arise from it. Everything that has ever been created can be traced back to the mental imagination of a living being, for thought always comes first, and only then form. For this reason, mind rules over matter and never the other way around, a truth that is... hermetic principle of the mind as has been passed down since time immemorial.

Albert Einstein already recognized that our universe is the result of a single thought, and he was absolutely right. The universe as we know it is nothing other than an expression of consciousness, the manifested thought of an intelligent creative mind. Consciousness is thus the highest authority in all of existence, and the two highest vibrational states that can arise from consciousness are light and love. In them, the purest form of being is revealed, and all of creation strives inexorably toward them in its ascension.

God as the eternal, self-creating consciousness

Consciousness has always existed in this context and will continue to exist eternally, for it is inherently timeless and immortal. There is no higher power beyond it, for God is fundamentally a gigantic, all-encompassing consciousness that was not created by anyone, but continually creates itself and everything else from within. We carry a divine spark of this primordial consciousness within us, and precisely for this reason, we too are at our core creative beings, inextricably linked to the source of all being.

Viewed in this light, the age-old question of what existed before the Big Bang is fundamentally flawed, for it presupposes a temporal beginning that never existed. Space and time themselves are merely phenomena within matter, while consciousness resides outside of both. Thus, there is no before and no after in the true sense, but rather an eternal, present being from which creation is reborn in every moment. The Big Bang, if we even wish to call it that, was therefore not a beginning from nothing, but merely a creative impulse within a consciousness that has always existed.

What this truth means for us

This realization changes everything, for it shows us that we were never separate from creation, but are ourselves a conscious part of this eternal spirit. If the entire universe arises from consciousness, and we ourselves are bearers of this consciousness, then that creative power which forms entire worlds also resides within us. We are not accidental beings on the edge of a dead cosmos, but living expressions of the Source, which experiences and recognizes itself through us.

Anyone who truly understands this also recognizes that their own life is an expression of this creative consciousness, and that we thereby... Creator of our own reality The universe did not arise from nothing, but from spirit, and it is in this very spirit that we, too, are eternally sheltered. If we carry this knowledge in our hearts, our perspective on life fundamentally changes, for we then know that behind everything lies a loving, creative source that never fades.

Closing words

Everything always begins within us, in our minds; never forget that. With that in mind, stay healthy, happy, and live a life in harmony. 🙂

  • Everything is energy Tom says:

    It's really crazy, you can't even imagine it. Does that also mean that there are other material forms and that there is a kind of parallel universe where it looks exactly like our universe only that there are other living beings on earth
