sentences with two blanks. Select the most appropriate pair from the options provided to complete both the sentences and ensure coherence.

The first sentence discusses a worldview based on forces that are beyond human comprehension. "Transcendental" (meaning beyond ordinary experience or understanding) fits the description of governing forces, and "inscrutable" (meaning impossible to understand or interpret) perfectly matches the idea that these forces are unknowable.
