Eternally Active Inactivity
In truth, the 'Fundamental Activity' can only be caused by the 'Causeless Inactivity'.
ALL 'things' and 'events' (including 'ourselves') are actually arbitrarily delineated, impermanent 'features' of this Fundamental Activity, which is commonly known as the universe.
If the ceaseless change that is this Activity had an absolute beginning, that beginning would also be the ending of a prior 'beginningless absence of change'. If it had an absolute ending, that ending would also be the beginning of a subsequent 'endless absence of change'. Such a situation is an absolute impossibility.
Therefore, this Activity MUST be eternally cyclic.
In an eternal absence of Activity, there is only the completely structureless, ever-changeless, infinite symmetry of the Causeless Inactivity. For this reason, It's eternally cyclic Activity can ONLY be the 'structured ever-changing asymmetry' that it is.
However, the true nature of the Causeless Inactivity (that is to say, the actual reason WHY It is 'active' rather than 'inactive', why 'experiencing' apparently happens at particular 'times' and 'places' within It's Activity, and in turn, why an illusion of multiplicity, separateness and duality seems to arise in the most complex of these experiences) is absolutely unknowable....
