COSMOS Vs DIVINE
=====================
VEDANTA FOR 21st CENTURY INTELLECTUAL INDIANS ( home or abroad )
_________________________________________________________________________
( Based on SHVETASHVATARA UPANISHAD OF VEDANTA).
7 PRINCIPLES :
=============
I . The Effect can never be the FIRST CAUSE but can be the CAUSE of furthers
Effects.
What is the Cause of COSMOS ?( No manifestation in NATURE can be the First
Cause as they are but subsequent Events .)
The DIVINE or First Cause Rule(s) over TIME , SPACE and Causation.
II . On the ever revolving Wheel of ' Beings' , the individual self goes round and round
through Life after Life believing itself to be separate Creature ( cf ; Ashtavakra Sanhita).
Conscious Spirit and Unconscious matter ; both have existed since the Dawn of TIME .
III. Avoid identifying yourself with the body.
Know DIVINE to be the First Cause and root - cause of all subsequent effect or events .
Really ,there is nothing more to be known
Bring both your Mind and Breath under your Control
( Be seated with your spine erect ).
IV . Divine was before Creation and will be after Dissolution,
And Divine project the COSMOS from the Divine's SELF --Maintains and Withdraws
back into the divine , (* like spider casting its net ).
' THAT ' is the collective SPIRIT of all that is alive in any form , any where and ever.
সর্বত:পানিপাদং তৎ সর্বতোঅ ক্ষিশিররো মুখম ।
সর্বত ; শ্রুতিমল্লোকে সর্বমাবৃত্য তিষ্ঠতি ।।
--- গীতা : ১৩ /১৪
V . Divine know (s) everything and everyone but no one can know Divine or ever shall
know.
In Divine the whole Universe is smaller than the smallest atom and far beyond the reach
of Mind .
VI . Not female -- Male nor Neuter is the Divine .
VII. EVOLUTION IS BUT DIVINE's OWN LAW .
Divine is Pure Consciousness, Omnipresent, Omnipotent , Omniscient.
Also the Creator of TIME , Master of 3 'Guna-s' and Evolution takes place at Divine's
Command .
HE IS THE CAUSE WITHOUT CAUSE AND WE ARE BUT INNUMERABLE
INSTRUMENTS OF THE DIVINE.
