////////////////Now I'm wondering if you believe that value existed before any sentient beings existed. My tendency is to say no, in the same way that physicists say that time did not exist "before" the big bang. However I get the impression that you believe that there was such a thing as value in nature before the existence of any beings capable of appreciating that value.

The question is rather like the old one about a tree falling in a forest- does it make a sound if no one is there to hear it?

Rosuvastatin appears to lower the risk of heart disease in healthy people.

/////////////Chapter V: The Yoga of Renunciation of Action

V.12. YUKTAH KARMAPHALAM TYAKTWAA SHAANTIM AAPNOTI NAISHTHIKEEM;
AYUKTAH KAAMAKAARENA PHALE SAKTO NIBADHYATE.

(Krishna speaking to Arjuna)
The united one (the well poised or the harmonised),
having abandoned the fruit of action, attains to the
eternal peace; the non-united only (the unsteady or the
unbalanced), impelled by desire and attached to the fruit,
is bound.

V.13. SARVAKARMAANI MANASAA SANNYASYAASTE SUKHAM VASHEE;
NAVADWAARE PURE DEHEE NAIVA KURVAN NA KAARAYAN.
Mentally renouncing all actions and self-controlled,
the embodied one rests happily in the nine-gated city,
neither acting nor causing others (body and senses) to act.
