Have you built your MEMORY PALACE?
by Terry init is any place you know so well your memory of it is intimate knowledge you simply will not forget.
this, in turn, will serve as a mnemonic device or place of safekeeping for anything you wish to remember (forwards or backwards).. memory experts "build" a great many of these for various uses.. .

God \ Universe
by ballistic inhi there, i don't claim this is true, it just came to me just now, perhaps you can point out any logical errors etc i've made or any other conclusions?.
.
there may be or may not be a god.. there is definately a universe.. the universe may have been created by god or may have come into existance of it's own accord.. neither the universe nor god can come into existance at a particular point in time as there was no time prior to the universe - it didn't exist.. only at the universe's creation did time begin therefore god never existed for a certain amount of time prior to it.. my conclusion is that god is the universe or the universe has always existed along with god?.
