dattaswami Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Veda says that the entire world is generated from space 123) Srustisthitilayaah tata aatmani yujyante shruterapi. (Therefore Atman is the creator, maintainer and destroyer of the universe even as per Veda). Since Atman is the space or primordial energy, we can say that atman creates, maintains and dissolves the world. It is clearly understood that the entire universe is created, maintained and dissolved by primordial energy. Even Veda says that the entire world is generated from space (Aakaashaat vaayuh…). Since space is primordial energy and primordial energy is self, we can replace the space by the self or atman. Note: When the self is the basic inert energy, when that inert energy is the primordial energy that is the space, and in Veda, the creation is process is described as; God created space, from space air came, from air fire came, from fire water, from water earth, from earth plants, from plants animals, like that creation process is told. So space is the starting point. Of course God created space. Leave God what is the starting point of creation? Space only. According to the special theory of relativity space bends around the boundary of an object. It means that space is energy; it is proved by special theory of relativity. Energy itself cannot create but it is the material for the creation. The consequent idea is explained in the next sutra, which reject the Lordship of space. Energy is the creator in the sense that it is the material used for creation. Gold is the creator of ornaments, this does not mean that Gold itself will create the chain. It is in the limited sense. Creator here means the materialistic cause. Today science says that energy is the creator, by the theory of probability, they explain everything without any planning element or managerial element in the beginning. Suppose you take science it, does not accept the creator. According to science energy is the creator. They say that there is no planning and it is based on probability.
