Science and religion are both based in the need to satisfy our ego. Their assumptions are based on the limited use of our mind, clouded with the need to be right.

Their start point is the false hypothesis that everything has to have a beginning. The theory of a beginning is accepted because we have a beginning at conception. "As it is down here, is up there." That assumption works only because we are individualizing. We are taking as a point to start what we can observe, forgetting that most of what exist can not be observed by our limited senses.

Our senses are limited to a certain spectrum. Most of what is in existence is out of our range of perception. Other species have a greater spectrum, and they can react to things that we are not capable of.

Every postulate that we can come out with is only based on our limited intuitions and logical outcomes, with no real base.

All the answers are at our finger tips. Sometimes we have flashes of reality, but when trying to comprehend their meanings we loose that understanding by filtering it with the tools of reasoning.

We live in a three dimensional reality, and we have to assume that if we are in the third dimension, the existence of other dimensions is a fact.

Before we can theorize about the beginnings of our universe, first we have to understand how our mind works, so we can know the extent of our capabilities to assimilate knowledge.

Second, we have to turn off our ego, so we can acquire new senses to expand our spectrum of observations in order to tap into the "unknown."

The creation of god was a shortcut to obtain answers to our questions.

Science was born as the means to obtain the same answers, but had a different approach. Find answers by means of observation and replication in a control ambient that with the outcomes aloud them to theorize.

We have part of us in the wholeness of existence, in this dimension as well in all that exist, and vice-versa.

Getting to know the capabilities and potentials of our mind will allow us to understand and actually get answers to our eternal questions. The answers are in us. Remember, we are part of the whole of existence, so we have the answers in us.

We have lost the sense of belonging. We have pulled us out of the "big picture." We can only see and comprehend whatever is in and around that space we have decided to call our reality.

All the baggage we bring and learn since our conception, limit us in our understanding and sensing the answers we seek. All the knowledge, culture, history, society, borders, human relations and behaviors, religion, the view we have of ourselves as been the most sophisticated being in existence are only obstacles in our search for identity and position in those universes in with we exist.
