Beginning of the universe is not a concern of Buddhism - because it's cyclic process... It get created, expands (sanwatta kalpa); collapses (vivatta kalpa); gets destroyed... get created again... (This is mentioned as background information in Agganna Sutta of Digha Nikaya)The problem is samsaraic existence of beings does not end at the point of disctruction... The beings spend the period in Abhassara brahma loka (they are beings of light...) and comes back to the worlds (when they are formed; and beings having forms can live in these worlds)...That's why samsaraic existence is so perilous... It does not end automatically... That's why Buddhists try to end it by following the Noble Eightfold Path...Theruwan saranai!</blockquote>
