Time after time

What if Brahma is sleeping, and while he is breathing in his dream, every stroke of breath embraces one universe from birth to death, as if breathing the universe in and out?

I often made mockery of the Big Bang, for it always found it too hilarious to even consider that where there was nothing before, all of a sudden from "nothing" "something" jumps into existence like crazy, without time, space and matter needed, and without having an explanation why the event took place when nothing was there. So regarding Big Bang I always ask immediately - why has there not remained to simply be NOTHING, non-existence? This cosmologistic idea always made no sense to me, and left me totally unsatisfied.

The guys at CalTech now seem to be in pursuit of hints that science maybe need to correct some very basic and important assumptions regarding of how the universe began. they place the Big Bang into an already existing context - a univese that already existed before, and just gets shuffled, charged and restarted, so to speak.

Which somehow sends a greeting at old ancient Hindu cosmology, that Brahman is sleeping, and his breath expaninding and declining the universe in his aeons-long sleep.

One falls silent when standing at the abyss of such thoughts, timeframes, and ideas. Only Einstein comes to the mind: "imagination is more important than knowledge". Only mind can reach where no technology and science maybe can ever reach for the forseeable couple of dozens of millions of years.

At least man's science. but life probably has so many faces that most of them we are unable to perceive even when standing right in front of them. we know a bit about the way life formed out on planet earth. To assume that all life there is is made by the same energetic and molecular patterns we cleverly form theories on, down here on our little planet, is absurd in the face of how much beyond imagination the size of the universe is.
