Keep in mind this is but one persons thoughts on the matter(namely mine).
The story does not end here . . .
Where can we go with it indeed? My guess would be just as confined as every other theory I am afraid. I guess we would have to start with the idea of “get real”.
So how do we get real? That in itself is a big question with a simple answer. People have a tendency to confound themselves with many different notions leading to over complicating the matter of what is real and what is not real.
So the following is an example of how I choose to get real:
I do not know “nothing” and I do not know “everything”. All I understand is somewhere in between.
All I understand would constitute my version of reality - so do I believe in the concept of an atom? Kind of. I understand that atomic physics gets results so the physicist is obviously on to something. But you do not need to understand electricity to use it. I do not believe you need to get physics and chemistry one hundred percent right to exploit these disciplines either. So how do we understand things that are too small for the human eye to see? We don’t really. We have a level of precision that works - enough to be practical - in the early days we did not even understand the consequences of playing in these disciplines and still today we are paying for our misunderstanding.
So now we can say:
We do not know “nothing” and we do not know “everything”. All we understand is somewhere in between.
I am certain this is something that is permanent.
The seed of the source - gets viewed in many ways as is evident in historical contexts.
If we take two definitions from google for the word source:
General definition
- a place, person, or thing from which something originates or can be obtained.
Technical definition
2. a body or process by which energy or a particular component enters a system.
And use the following definition for the word seed:
cause (something) to begin to develop or grow
You could surmise that my definition for seed of the source is as follows:
cause a place, process, body, person or thing to originate, enter, develop or grow
We are fundamentally talking about causation - cause and effect. To some it would be GOD, to others the Big Bang. To me all theories are illusions of some kind because of what each person should probably admit to themselves:
We do not know “nothing” and we do not know “everything”. All we understand is somewhere in between.
And it is still only probability because of something similar to what I said earlier:
A subjective degree of belief should rationally change to account for availability of related evidence.
But what would I know? I am just as lost as everyone else . . . People claim they have proofs for this, that and the other but as I said in another thread:
How do we know when to accept objective reality established and accepted through science and philosophy?
None of this is to say that we can not keep increasing our understanding of reality - just that life itself and its raison d’être might remain a mystery to us.
So the seed of the source could also be - the seed(author) of the source(theory)
. . . or as today shows us . . . the seeds(authors) of the sources(theories)
I could of course explain the seed of the source in a much “prettier” way - a way that is more comfortable for a person to read and maybe accept.
To me reading what other people write is another form of socializing - we read many things that point at the truth even though they may differ.

In the end - acceptance is belief.
