What self-subsists, maximum or minimal existence?

if Theists are right, then the greatest existence is what constitutes the root of existence. That would be what self-subsists. It would be what magically exists and everything would be made from that.

My question to you, when you think of self-subsistence, independent existence, where do you place your bets? If neutral why neutral?

And what you know about yourself, your own self, seeing it exists, doesn't that tell you minimum existence cannot make the fabric of existence but we are connected to something higher?


I question what would count as being "at the root of existence".   Are there perspicuous examples of such things?  A good exemplar could really help me makes sense of what you're after here.

"Self subsisting"?  A cast away can be forced to become more self reliant.  Again a good example of such a thing would go a long way toward making this meaningful question.

The fact that you think such things are magical doesn't bode well though.  So everything else is made of magic stuffs?
