Are There Cosmic Causes and Cures for All Evils?
Do you know how and why the devil, pains and
miseries in this world and life came? At the start or genesis of universe, there
was only one almighty God, the brahman , cosmic soul ( parmatma ). After many
yug s (eras) of being alone and blissful, he thought of becoming many from one
and said: eko hum, bahu syami (in sanskrit it means, I am one, let me be many).
And with this concept ( sankalp ) alone, the ball of duality and multiplcity of
creation started rolling, and still is rolling on and on through four yuga s
that is, satyug, tretayug dwaparyug and now in kalyug and even beyond till
eternity. And from one to two and many, also came in devil, misery, pain and
division, ego, you and I, mine and thine and endless mutual conflicts that
filled all our lives with all sorts of pains and problems.
So the basic sin was his desire to become two - purusha and prakriti (as held in
samkhya philosophy), and many from the original one being or purusha and his
second (consort or prakriti ). Now being disgusted with 99.9% evil and pains in
the world, it appears to me the good old God is wishing again just the reverse
i.e.: bahu ahum, eko syami (I am too many, let me be one: I, me and myself
only).
And the process of involution, as against evolution, subdivisions and endless
mutations, i.e. recoil and merger of all back into the original one - the
vedantic brahman , without even his consort, will start, or has started already.
That’s the only way to solve this root of all world's miseries, pains and
evil. Duality and multiplicity itself is the first evil, the original sin that
generates pain. Like a man cannot live happily without a woman and a woman
can’t live without her children and children want al the resources of the
world to be happy like their colleagues and neighbors, and they again go in the
same cyclic expansion process, needing their life partners ad infinitum.
It is his creation and can be solved by him only. It would not be like the
conventional pralaya (annihilation of the world) by natural catastrophies like
torrential rains, floods, volcanic eruptions, epidemics, famines or wars etc,
but like a projection operator switching off his projector light and the
disgustingly horrible film of cosmic story vanishes from the screen leaving the
blank space or void, instantly and painlessly.
However, now the question is: will he again get bored with himself after many
yug s (eras) of being one and the only one being in the universe? And then, will
he desire again: eko hum, bahu syami , and will this cycle/pendulum of creation
and merger, evolution and involution, go on ad infinitum? Can’t he stop at:
eko hum, do syami , so that he is happy with his second, i.e.consort only,
without becoming/creating third and so on? Can’t he practise cosmic family
planning of: hum do, hamin do, not hum do hamare do .
That’s why I consider those couples who do not have (or don’t create) any
issue, are supremely divine and blissful, showing even God the way to create a
happy and self-contented, blissful state of existence, remaining himself and
making the others also happy. The advent of third from the primal two ( purusha
and prakrti of samkhya philosophy) may be disastrous, just as being vedantic one
only may become unbearable at times, for him and us alike. This alone will be
the path of golden mean - nirvana or moksha .
Microcosm ( brahmand ) is contained within, and governed by, the microcosm (
pind ). Hence, each one of us can contain the above cosmic malady, by finding
our own second part, a harmonious consort, and remain two only in love, never
multiplying into three or more, as the primal absolute did. Otherwise there will
be no end to our ceaseless divisive multiplication and resultant miseries. Just
as with each building its shadow is also born, with each creation its painful
evil side is also created, automatically. Cracks cannot be created if there are
no walls. More on http://kaalpurush.tripod.com
