Have you got solid evidence to back up this sentence from Krauss?  Demon

Nowhere, at no time does Krauss ever claim to know, with absolute certainty, that the universe does not have a purpose. It is his simply his provisional conclusion based on his immense knowledge of physics and the lack of evidence that the universe does have a purpose.

It does not go unnoticed when you try to shift the burden of proof.

Quote:What about the consciousness?
Is this also made by matter?

Every example of consciousness ever observed, without exception, is an emergent property of a physical brain. Consciousness arises from the electro-chemical processes of brains.

Please give one demonstrable example of consciousness that exists absent a physical brain.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
