If we could go back in time to before the big bang (which is to say, if there was a before, and there where a way to experience all that is dependent upon said event independent of the status of said event) then- it wouldn't be surprising if we concluded that we would experience something the same as we do now, as it was nested in the premise.
Our bodies observe times passage because such a thing is there to observe. The "principle" wouldn't apply if that "something" was not present. Call it the arrow of time, entropy, what have you.
