Interpretation

How do you define life?

How do you describe The Universe in which this life manifests itself?

What is the relationship between these & who ''manages'' this relationship?

Do we really understand everything that is happening in The Universe?

Are there things happening in The Universe that are beyond our comprehension?

Who or what governs these interactions?

Mankutimma, how can we prove such things? Can the knowledge of such an abtract concept be the only proof of its existence?
