SANKARASRAMAM
GOD, CREATION AND
MANIFESTATION
In Semitic religion, the
god is like a man walking from one point of the world to the other,
doing many things and getting many things done. The god is like a
king instructing all his creations to obey only him and follow only
him.
In Sanaathana dharma everything
in this world is the manifestation of the god. Here, god is not the king,
nor the ruler. He does not instruct you to follow only him and make only
him happy.
God is present in everything and
everything in this world is the manifestation of the god. So
they have to care share and cure each other .
Thus we can see our mother,
father, people, animals, plants, the sun, the moon, we
ourselves and so on are the manifestation of the god and we say
maatru devo bhava, pitru devo bhava and so on
Thus the god exist in these
manifestations. (eesaavaasyamidam sarvam). All these are
parts of the god (inseparable parts). Thus you and me (aham
brahmaasmi, thathwamasi) are also the manifestation. So
we are the children of immortal god and not sinners (amruthasya
putraa).
Even a stone, river,
mountain, forest and so on are also the part of the cosmic /
universe / solar system (sarvam khalvidam brahma). So they are divine and
hence we should see the divinity even in a stone and idol.
.
If we think god is like a person
going from one end to the other end, it means that he cannot go to
each person when millions of people call him. If the god is within
us, we need not wait for his arrival. We go to the temple only to
remind us that god is present even in an idol. So god is the
power from which every living and non living beings are born,
surviving and at the end reaching back. (yato vaa imaani bhoothaani
jaayante, yena vaa jaathaani jeevanthi, yath prayanthi abhi samvisanthi,
thath vijajnaasaswa, thath brahmeti )
When we can see divinity
in everything we will not pollute the water, air, earth, and we
will not kill, injure, destroy, anything or any other living
beings because they are the manifestation of the god. This concept is
getting high level acceptance world over.
You can see many westerners are
chanting Veda mantras. Albert Einstein used to worship the god on
this cosmic form. The 5 Ft Nataraja vigraha is kept in the entrance
of European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) Geneva, Switzerland,
the Chicago National Museum has hundreds of Indian Idols. Even
many intellectuals, scientists and thinkers including Hollywood
actors are practicing yoga, doing meditation, chanting
mantra………Indian heritage is being accepted
world over. Try to learn more and more and teach others.
