Purely a question for physicists.
Nobody knows and I am at peace with not knowing.
When God (which is all of us) decided to fracture herself into a material existence from whatever she was before.
Where does it all come from? How did reality manifest?
How did the Universe begin?
Reality manifests the day we're born. The "conditions" of the world then interpret our understanding of how the universe began.

How did the Universe begin?
Our current universe began from The Original Essence of Measure which can be described as The Black Sun or The Light Shadow
How did the Universe begin?
There are only two possible outcomes for us: we will either die out as a species or survive. Given the tiny amount of time we have existed as a species, and the unpredictability of the universe, I would guess that we will eventually cease to exist, either by natural forces or by taking care of it ourselves. This could happen in a thousand years, or a million years. In the short time we will survive as a technoevolution of ourselves, enhancing our features and capabilities artificially to the point where we no longer look like the humans of today. Where we take it from there is pure imagination.

This is obviously a tough question, as neither science nor religion have convinced me yet. I believe empirical evidence, so in the lack of such evidence I must ask myself (and you) on the prevalent theories: - Do you believe in the big bang? Did a big explosion happen from nothing? How does this reconcile with the laws of matter and thermodynamics? - Do you believe in God? If God created the universe, how was God created? Was he created at all? How can something that exists not have a beginning? I believe everything starts from something, so I have a hard time siding with either of these theories. Is it possible for the universe to always have existed, just evolved? How do we reconcile this with the linearity of time? I just wrote a lot to basically say: I dont know the answer to this one, and I havent formulated my own theory yet. If we havent been able to answer this questions in homo sapiens' entire existence, I doubt we will answer it before some kind of empirical evidence surfaces.

I'm not sure this is something we can answer. . . but I do imagine that whatever the answer is, it would amount to a great knitting together of all the fables and scientific versions we have so far. There is something in us, deep in our souls, that might know or remember in some way and I think that creeps out into our stories.
How did the Universe begin?
I believe in the big bang theory. There was nothing (or not even nothing) and then there was something.
How did the Universe begin?
I am not sure if it did begin. I think perhaps it has always been here in some form or another. In the way we perceive it? It emerged slowly with the evolution of our eyes, ears, tongues, noses, and skin.
How did the Universe begin?
With a desire to improve on what was already happening
How did the Universe begin?
Around 6,000 years ago, the first decision was made, creating a point of duality, which resulted in the instantaneous expansion of our universe. Since then, an infinite number of universes have popped into existence. It’s a real mess.
How did the Universe begin?
With God's will (and probably with some help from astrophysics and things I know nothing about)
How did the Universe begin?
This might be one of the final unanswered questions. And how do we know it even does begin? Or end? Something without beginning or end is unfathomable to us humans, whose perception is reliant on finite stretches of time. Once we die and roll back into the infinite source energy, we might find out.
How did the Universe begin?
With the first primordial perceptions. And it grew more complex and organisms grew more complex tools to perceive.
How did the Universe begin?
As part of an eternal, timeless and universal cycle of death and rebirth.
How did the Universe begin?
We know about the Big Bang and we think something earlier, and since there was time and space, the Universe must have begun from the durable interplay of those two.
How did the Universe begin?
The mystery of the beginning of all things is insoluble by us—and I for one must be content to remain an agnostic.
How did the Universe begin?
Universe started from a simple thought letting human build amazing things.
How did the Universe begin?
I dunno. I am not a physicist. However, the science of Physics seems to be operating on the assumption that the same physical laws that we know are present throughout the universe. Maybe so, maybe not.
How did the Universe begin?
The probability become so heavy and abundant, that not existing become unbearable. Thus the World happened. The transition from possibility to the reality was so smooth that nobody can pinpoint it so far.
How did the Universe begin?
With a big bang. But what happened before the bang is a mystery.
How did the Universe begin?
Pick a metaphor. Traditional choices are -object made or -physiologic function -breathing, thinking, sex- by one or more progenitors. Recent science-y explanation seems to be a traditional choice from the pov event.
How did the Universe begin?
So we settled for an answer in this question that it did begin? Astrophysicists have some idea how it evolved, but explaining Big Bang and singularity is beyond us. Is explaining HOW an answer to WHY, any way? No, I do not prophesy outside agency.
How did the Universe begin?
I like to think it was some sort of a meet-cute set up in a Rom Com. Only between two atoms that then exploded.
How did the Universe begin?
The physical universe was created from nothing by a uncaused being who is outside of our current space time dimension.
How did the Universe begin?
Maybe there was no beginning, if it was always there and always will be, just in different forms.
How did the Universe begin?
Birth, mom, dad, twin, siblings, the floor, the rug, outside, rain, dirt, salamanders, other kids, the car, then words.
How did the Universe begin?
From the smallest spore to the largest star, all began by the yearning of matter and non-matter for meaning and definition.
How did the Universe begin?
Everything in the universe started as small as a piece of dust and continued to expand with the big bang, giving birth to greater mass and space.
How did the Universe begin?
Human at this point of time lacks the cognitive ability/intelligence to grasp this idea. it is possible that the human linquistic products are less relevant, perhaps, to the nature itself.
How did the Universe begin?
The great mystery is only through profound introversion this question can be answered.
How did the Universe begin?
Cyclical in general. Current from big bang, or kun yafaqoon (ie: Be and it became). Ultimately...no one knows.
How did the Universe begin?
Like Drake - Started from the bottom, now it's here.
How did the Universe begin?
We do not know yet, nothing wrong in stating that we do not either. Conjecture is the best we have so far and that is not very convincing.
How did the Universe begin?
The universe to me is what I know, and what I know started thanks to my mom and dad. That's how the universe began.
How did the Universe begin?
It never did. The beginning is just a useful language construction. Thinking about how Universe begin is, on the contrary, NOT useful. But surely a great subject for centuries of narratives. Narratives ARE useful. Paradoxes from the beginning.
How did the Universe begin?
Lonely and bored, God decided to make a movie.
How did the Universe begin?
Space dust exploded after billions of years of atmospheric implosion. The shattered dust particles from the explosion are our planets.
How did the Universe begin?
All universes begin with awareness. When one becomes aware of their surroundings, their universe begins.
How did the Universe begin?
People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.
How did the Universe begin?
Which one? They are all in cycles of forming and collapsing. It just goes on and on like my sister-in-law on the phone
How did the Universe begin?
The universe began with a single spark that suddenly exploded into complexity. It's been growing more complex ever since. The question I have - why? And how?
How did the Universe begin?
My universe began with my conception! It's in my continued learning!
