Jung made the more conservative claim that (US) entity is unconscious. [1] Like a baby in the womb.
If you subscribe to emergentist theory of mind or integrated information theory of consciousness [3][4], compared to what comes, still a dissolute level of being.
There is an argument of telos here. [4] I like to think of it as a cosmic historical process. Is it circular or linear? Maybe the geometric metaphors are lacking.

(Also the frontispiece on Hobbes' Leviathan is great visual representation of this old idea.)
