Perhaps we can say that there is measurable Space and immeasurable Space. Ancient Indian thought instead postulated a material Space that is measurable and an immaterial Space that is not measurable in material ways but can be conceived and experienced. Try imagining Space and keep pushing the limits? Ultimately we will end up with a mysterious X before Space begins. The same applies to Time. In other words there is Space and Time as we know it through the material senses. But there is another Space and Time that one experiences psychologically! Isn’t it? Then there is boundless Space and endless Time. But what is the container in which this movement is taking place? Cosmic Existence one would say. But an Existence that has the knowledge and the power to create by objectivising and limiting and multiplying itself. This is because of the cosmic consciousness that is inherent in existence. One could even say that Existence and Consciousness is the original fundamental Reality which gives rise to the perception of Space and Time like many layered matrix within itself. And what is beyond the cosmic Existence and cosmic Consciousness? Well the only logical possibility would be infinite Existence and Infinite Consciousness. Being infinite it is not subject to change. It is neither born nor dies. It is Eternal so to say.
