Human Eternons have been through cosmic conflagrations of apocalyptic proportions. They have visited the hellish interiors of celestial bodies. They have roamed the heavens. They have participated in the genesis of the Earth and survived the floods that marked its evolution. Dust returning to dust, they resurrect, reincarnate, and live forever. Our Eternons have filled our human psyche with fragments of their cosmic experience. They have   revealed to us in this way four universal verities:

1. There is infinity.
Behind every religious feeling is the fundamental intuition that an infinite reality transcends the finite world. For early humans, this transcendence was manifest in all of the surrounding nature.
Thus, are born cults such as Totemism and Animism, revering and personalizing the pervading Eternon forces.

2. There is eternity.
Humans did not start believing in an everlasting soul only to appease the anxiety of their too short lives. Eternity has always been embedded within their Eternon minds.
Thus are born cults such as those of Ancient Egypt, India, and China, in which the dead and reincarnation play a central role.

3. There is purpose.
The purpose of Eternons is to progress toward the Absolute. This is why complex structures like humans exist. This is why universal moral values have been gradually penetrating these humans.
Thus are born religions proclaiming the ultimate power of love, such as Buddhism and Christianity.

4. There is oneness.
Eternons are issued from a single Absolute. In their spiritual evolution, humans have felt compelled to abandon multiple divinities and to worship a single cosmic power.
Thus are born religions of one God, such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Thus are born wisdoms of one Principle, such as Buddhism and Taoism.
