Creation and evolution

Creativity is inherent in nature itself. There is a universal law. The creator of that law is prakriti, nature. Creation is a beginningless continuity, so you cannot say that a particular day is the first day of creation. There are millions of stars, suns and planets. They are all subject to a constant process of creation and destruction.

According to the law, disintegration and reintegration are always taking place. Sages have been answering questions such as, what is the cause of creation? Where did we come from? How do we exist? Where shall we go to? Vedanta says, ‘You are Atman. You have come from pure Self and therefore you are pure.’ As a human being, your first duty is to live in spiritual consciousness.

Some believe that man made amistake and so he remains in ignorance. Others believe that ahuman being is privileged because he is aware of God and can attain illumination in this life itself. Animals and other beings may be intelligent, but they are still in the tamasic state. Awareness of the Self, Atman and God is special.

Our present physical form has five gyanendriyas, sense organs, and five karmendriyas, motor organs, and the brain.


But there is still something more that man has to develop. That is called intuition, the supermind. Yogis, saints and prophets have experienced this. But for everyone to sense this, for everyone to have a supermind, will not happen overnight. I don’t think that one fine day everybody will wake up and find that they have become supermen.

Apparently, a death had occurred there and relatives were crying bitterly over the demise of their dear one. He moved on, feeling sympathy for them. After some days, when he happened to pass through the same street, he remembered the house where he had heard sobbing sounds earlier. But now no perceptible change was visible there after the death that seemed to have brought profound sorrow. The initial shock of death seemed to have subsided and all normal activities went on as usual. ‘How soon and how smoothly we come to terms with death,’ wondered Sri Narayana Guru. What is death all about? Does knowledge of death help us lead a better life? There were many studies on the subject of death. It was young Nachiketa, son of Saint Vajasravas, who went right into the abode of Dharmaraj...
