For its topic this post is not going to be very long. But that’s a good thing, because this is really all you need to grasp the concept. I’m not sure everything in life can be explained; especially those things you know intuitively. But this is one thing that can be.
I would also like it to be known I am not biased on this topic one way or another: As a kid I was raised religiously, then for some time I didn’t believe; viewed everything to be mechanical in nature and later again spiritually I knew it had to be the truth. – I genuinely lived all three of these separate views.

The Creative Source

Science, philosophy, religion and spirituality have all concluded there is a beginning to our universe. And if there is a beginning, there is a cause. And that cause can not be nothing. ‘Nothing’ can not bring the universe in to existence, because ‘nothing’ produces nothing. Without a shadow of a doubt, that cause absolutely has to be ‘something’. It is the only possibility. And with this conclusion we also know that the cause was not part of the universe. It originated outside this universe. Because for the same reason that ‘nothing’ can not create ‘something’, ‘something’ can not create itself.

Ok, so.. maybe ‘something’ created the universe. But what created that ‘something’?
Let me give you an example: I want to drink a glass of water, but before I do, I’ll have to ask permission at the individual behind me. He says he doesn’t know what to say and asks the individual behind him. The one behind him also doesn’t know and asks the one behind him. And so on. If that goes on forever, then can I drink that glass of water? No I can not.
You need a final point. Asking “what created that ‘something’ that created the universe?” is the same as saying “there is no creation”. If that cycle continues on forever, it is impossible for creation to exist.
Because I exist, I know there is creation. And because there is creation, it means that ‘something’ starting point is uncreated. In other words ‘eternal’.

So, ‘something’ has created the universe.
That ‘something’ originates outside this universe.
And that ‘something’ is eternal.

As you may have noticed, that is the definition of “God”, also called the “Creative Source”, or many other names.

Mainstream science makes this topic a lot more difficult than it needs to be and systematically ignores the logical answer simply because it is something they can not measure. There is only so far you can go using regular mainstream accepted physics and theories. If you want to know the truth, you have to go beyond that. Just because you can’t measure something doesn’t mean it’s not real.

Take love for example: Love can not be measured and it’s not even logical, but we all know it exists.
