Why did it all begin? Why did we leave God in the first place? That is the question which is the ultimate question, and Buddha’s answer to that question was, “It’s none of our business.” Which is not a facetious answer. He’s saying our subject-object mind can’t know the answer to that question. It’s an answer that we can be, but we can’t know; because in order to know that, we would have to be that from which it started, but we aren’t it as long as we’re asking the question.
