To question whether 'existence exists' is a Cosmological insanity.

We may investigate 'How...?' - but 'why...?' always leads to either 'paradox', 'nothing' or another Human mind-construction of some 'mythical thing'.

Rather, the question of 'why' attends to our personal needs, and not those of larger existential necessity.

People look after the things they have affection for. It is thus essential that we learn to have affection for the planet that sustains us.

"The sense of threat from every quarter of what is known as the Establishment – which is to say, of modern civilization – is not altogether a put-on or an act for many of these young folk, but an actual condition of soul. The break-off is real, and what is being bombed and blown up outside are actual symbols of interior fears." - Joseph Campbell
