Abstract
The cycle begins and the clock is ticking. The potent force that is to encapsulate all that we know is reaching out, expanding, pioneering its first great exhalation of breath into the great void—a breath that will encompass all, as the bud turns to flower and opens its petals, spreading light where once only darkness existed. The seconds pass, the minutes accumulate, days turn into weeks, months into years, and the giant exhalation continues—the dawn of time and the first flicker of consciousness.
