Fascinating. This correlates with a dream I had not long ago.
In it I was on a grassy hill at night and a telescope was set up at the top. My guardian angel (or some angel with whom I am familiar in my dreams so I never think to ask his or her name) stood by the telescope and bid me "look." As I looked into the telescope I saw a nebula and as soon as I saw it I perceived that I was being transported toward it through space at an immense speed. As I was drawing nearer it, the angel's voice was heard, asking, "What do you see?" I gave an automatic answer that puzzled my mind later when I woke but seemed as natural as 1 + 1 = 2 in my dream. My response was, "The bosom of the Father." When I reached the nebula I was immersed in the thick, dark cloudy material so that I felt as though I was asleep or unconscious. All sense of time ceased and the only awareness I retained in that moment of unknown duration was that I am (and even that was a very weak signal). Was I there for a moment or forever? It could not be known. Then a bright light shone and I was given the opportunity to awake from my slumber or resist and take the easier course of rolling back to oblivion? I chose to awake. And I perceived a new thing: there was light and there was darkness, and it was good. I saw that the light came from a sphere or point of light that illuminated the cloudy matter of which I was only a particle. Many intelligences awoke in that light. And I knew that the light was Christ. At that point I fell out of the nebula back toward the hill, my vision locked on the shrinking nebula as myriads of stars streaked by at great speed. Then I was back on the hill. With the instruction over, the dream ended.
I do not know the meaning of all things, but I learned how it is that we have no creation and no destruction (at least the infinite portion of ourselves that we call intelligence) and yet there is a moment that we could term a start or a beginning of sorts. I also learned that the scriptures contain a lot of subtle language that detail this long path. And I know, most of all, that we have been following Christ for a very long time.
