Yet their 'meanings' are so much more. The structures of 'the beginning times' have no immediate human correlates, but they undoubtably contribute to all the arrived at stories and experiences - which we only and profoundly understand through human thought and deep contemplation. I'm not trying to force a synthesis of science and spiritual truths by casting processes this way. I'm confidently saying that there is no other validity than that they are already and unavoidably one with each other. If you look at most of the world's religions, they place importance on eternity.
Life is framed by immensities that take our breath away.
The vastness contrasting our brief and limited lives. So we judge ourselves here, and eventually, there, by focussing our souls on ultimates - that are ever lasting. I hope so. Since eternity is only another way of being, an extended manner of the universe most apparent to us. Space and time and energies and forces and such are the embodiments which developed and unfolded into the life-forces and views and thoughts and attitudes and understandings and realities we are.
