We only exist, like a flame created from a source – and the same applies to both our bodies (matter is energy – and only a source can cause that) and everything elseB we are not aware of SourceC the perceptions of reality which our senses create, giving us a visceral experience of a universe – including of our own self, and the millions and billions of others (and varied creations) was only to a. lay the framework of an independent reality, so when we would be sick and tired of foolish pleasures (after having conquered narcissistic ones…) in the pursuit for the meaning of life – The infinite dimension within the finite mind and heart!
