How the Universe Began

How the Universe was Born.

Before time began, there was the Cosmic Egg. The egg knew nothing about anything or anyone. It was alone in a starless realm. Eons passed without any time going by, and still the Cosmic Egg sat in empty nothingness. Centuries later, the egg pulsed with energy once, and then, at first, very few in number, perhaps an eon between each pulse, there were more pulses. As the egg grew, the pulses increased more and more – once per eon, once per age, once per century, once per year, once per month, once per day, until finally the egg was glowing constantly with its own pulsating energy. Finally, after a timeless time, the egg began to crack. It was hatching! When the shell could not hold its contents anymore, it exploded with immeasurable force. A soundless explosion rocked the cosmos as the forces within the egg were finally released. This was the "Big Bang". This is the popular belief about how the universe began.
