My pretentious instinct was to answer you along a Quantum context of my limted grasp. My experience rubs up against my entanglements and the sense I get is that the field of infinite potential, arising at every chance, is a big part of the answer. Quantum nature's wave/particle duality cleans up some of the crumbly bits of the mystery for me, when you throw in quantum entanglement. But I don't know how or when it reconciled with the more mundane Newtonian folds of my overall puzzled mind. Its fundamental nature is unknowable. Richard Feynman said "If you think you understand Quantum physics, then you don't." Sounds much like the Taoist saying mentioned earlier. I'm cool with that. But I'm interested in your dilemma. I only wish I could move it forward some. Have you looked at Vedic teachings?

Or seen this thread I started?

I don't know if anything in this will interest or entertain, much less enlighten you. There's much in there for me to chew on, but that's just me. In terms of this discussion, I found the final chapter dream/story interesting. Here you are, in case:
