Time frame for vedas
I think we are going in circles around the issue in this discussion
instead of discussing the real issue i.e
whether we should take it as fact or not, what is mentioned about the age
of universe according to vedas and the subsequently the transfer of the
knowledge to the four rishis in the very beginning as claimed by you.
And we found it different based on our observation through scientific
process, which you claim can be wrong, because there can be gross amount
errors in that calculation, scientist can be biased in there studies too
as there are just mortals as any other human beings living on this earth.
Well, I never made claim that scientist can not biased? But theories are
not formulated that way, if you know the process, in if the theory is
proved theoretically, and accepted by the scientist working on that
particular field. and that's not the end of it, so scientist to further
research on that based on earlier finding, if they found something new
which contrast with the earlier finding, then we do validation of course
through scientific experiments. what to take as true for the time being
until further development, that's how science work.
You know what's that beauty of science it gives freedom to ask the simple
and the most important question Why? In science you don't blindly believe
or have faith in something because it was written somewhere?
Q. Do you believe or accept that vedas contains the absolute truth about
the creation and all other things in this whole universe as it clams or
at least its followers? and There is nothing outside the domain of the
vedas , nothing to be discovered, and that is it for all humans being to
know about this universe.There is nothing left to be known about the
universe as you claim vedas contain the absolute truth.
Vedas contain all that human being can possibly know about the universe
or creation per se?
If you say yes to above statements,
Q. Could you please tell us why In the vedas the issue of origin of
universe is written in Qs Ans form?
As you claimed that this absolute knowledge was given to the 4 rishis by
God based on their level of purity or karma in the very begining?
so could you tell who has asked the question as mentioned in the veda?
and why?
If it is asked by the rishis then your claim that God has given this
knowledge in the beginning to these 4 worthy rishis among the humans
seems to fall apart, as it more seems like these rishis asked the
question in samadhi and got the Answers?
please tell us or its the other way around?I mean
Q. Did the God told them to ask the question so the God can answer their
queries?
I don't understand why there is Q n A round given in the Vedas?
If God has given this knowledge there should not be any question in the
first place,as God knows each and everything?
Don't you think it should be in the form of statement as you claim its
the absolute knowledge?
It mentioned in the rig vedas about the names of 6 manvantra (svyambhav,
svarochish, autami, taamas, revat, chakshush respectively) that has
already been passed and the one(vaivusvath) which is going on but there
is no mention about the names of the rest of the seven manvantras which
are going to happen? except the (Sarvani)
Q. Could you please explain why is that So? if the origin of the universe
is elaborated thoroughly?
Or the God don't want to tell us about them at the time of origin? and
left it for us to discover or ponder upon? Or may be God will tell us
when either they would be finished or going to be started through his
divine intervention to some worthy and pure souls like God did at the
begining?
Q. could tell us why is it mentioned that aryas formulated the time scale
for the measurement for year and shan?
could tell us if this knowledge is received by the rishis straight from
god, from where the Aryas came in to play?
Q. could please show some light on this:
its mentioned that age of universe is equal to 14 manvantars and each
manvantar is divided into 71 chaturyugis?
So this comes out to be 14X71=994 chatarygis.
And there is written in the later part of this elaborate discussion that
One thousand chataryugis is equal to one Braham din and one thousand
chataryugis equal to the one Braham ratri. and God operates this unverse
for 1000 chataryugis or one braham din and then God dissolves the
creation for the same period of time i.e one thousand chatarugis or
braham ratri.
here you can see that there is contrast between the age of universe
between the former and later part of this elaborate explanation because
as mentioned above the 994 chatarugis could not possibly equal to 1000
chatarygis as mentioned in the later half.
There is difference of 6 chataryugis (i.e 6 X 43,20,000= 25,92,0000
years) in the calculation of the age of creation according the
information mentioned in the vedas.
Q. my simple question is why is that so? or did the God has kept this
time of 6 chatarygis so that God can prepare for the process of
dissolution and creation?
or is it so, so that God can rest before starting the next creation?
As you can see there is a grave miscalculation!!
Now tell us whose to blame for this either God who gave this absolute
knowledge according to you or the rishis who messed up in receiving this
knowledge?
Further, tell us why its mentioned that 1,96,08,52,976 years have been
passed and this much time has been passed since the origin of Vedas and
2,33,32,27,024 were remaining years of this creation.
so the whole age of creation comes out to be 4,29,40,80,000 years.
Now please show some light of dev yugas what's there relevance to above
calculation of the time frame for creation.
Q could please tell us why its said we can't count how many times the
creation has happened, or did the God don't want to tell us that
secret,wants to keep it to himself? that sounds pretty absurd because
here the God has given the elaborate account of creation, for just one
creation and why not for the rest of the creation that he has created or
does God forget the total no. of creation he as has done in the mist of
work of creation?
This also shows that these vedas were not god given words as you claim
but these were written by human beings based on their intuition that they
have received in deep meditation?
Well further its written there that this time frame of manvantar and
braham din was given for human understanding only. So there is no real
significance of this? As this satisfy the human intellect or to mystify i
would say.
Could you tell us why the god did not gave us the actual calculation? why
God want to conceal it, as it challenges god's superiority?
Well this calculation is based on the astronomical studies done by vedic
rishis?
and they can be wrong too for reason that you have sited applies to them
also as they are human beings too.don't you think so?
if you have any other explation please tell us.
you can see there are many loopholes?
Q. Could you please tell in this elaborate account of origin why God
forgot to tell us about the Origin or Galaxies, blackholes, dark energry,
dark matter, quantum voids, spread through out in the universe.
or why God forget to tell us about the time frame for the evolution of
solar system and earth. so that we can save our energy resources for more
useful purpose instead of trying hard to find out the age of the solar
system and earth.
This shows that God didn't forget to tell us, its just that there were
not created at that time with some special creation. but gradually came
into existence as we can see today through the cosmological and
astronomical studies.
God also hadn't told us about the species which were originate? solely
left that for us to discover through our studies. or may god might have
thought that's not necessary for us to know the evolutionary history of
the earth and solar system. instead we should focus on the bigger
picture, that is origin of universe or creation.

**To achieve results we have to train the mind , intellect, pranas in
accordance with laws of nature to create and achieve the various effects.
Like a computer, we have to feed it with the Gyan which you can
understand as a software for the body, mind etc Here the activities &
results are occuring in a nano invironment, which may be more minuter
than the outside sub atomic activities ? Even scientist also have to
visualize the things in brain , before trying them outside. The Rishis
aquire the ability to visualize the effects inside and may not require
experimenting outside. You can observe that every thing we are able to
perceive is through our inside perceptions and nothing can be achieved
without it. The fact that the Human body is a mini Universe in itself, is
I think, still an allien thought for the scientists.
# Well you said activities and results are occuring nano environment,
for sake of information the nano is just one billionth of a meter so its
not minute as you think to be because science has discovered the electron
3x10^-15 meters, proton, neutron, and quarks which are still smaller in
size.
size doesn't matter when we are talking about the subatomic particles, as
you might know these waves of energy based on findings of particle
physics.
So these activities that your are talking are taking place in still
smaller environment beyond the grasp of current technological
advancement.
"you said human body is a mini Universe in itself is I think, still an
allien thought for the scientists" please explain in what sense its said
that? as far i know you haven't said it in literal context. because you
can't correlate the mysteries of human body with universe in its literal
context. because the two are entirely different?
I agree with you that we are still searching the mysteries of human body
particularly the brain. and we don't have absolute knowledge about the
human body
and science is not making claim for that either too.
** I think assuptions about what is absolute and what is not still hounds
the scientific world ?
# As i have already said science is not based on mere assumption. nor its
following the God given words to be absolute truth.
I think your above statement has no legs science absolute hounds the
scientific world as that is not the case I have already mentioned before
that scientific world is not making a claim to possess the absolute
knowledge as we are still in the process of discovering, it is you people
whose making the claim about that.
** if you can believe in the Big bang theory,{and all your present
submissions are based on this only, which has not become a law so far,
but still you are using it with full confidance ?] then you ought to
believe in all the other odd theories. You may ask how ? Pl. see, as per
this theory before the big bang there was no matter, all was energy, all
was enclosed in a zero space with enormous heat & enormous weight but no
volume ? Today you describe energy in terms of movement of particles,
then how are you going to desribe it before the Big bang when there were
no particles ? will you kindly describe this , the form of energy without
any associated matter form ?? You are unable to believe in ways which may
be possible, but you readily believe in this because it has a name
attached to it i.e., it is scientific.
#though its just a theory not accepted you said I am using it with full
confidence?
though I don't agree that this is the ultimate theory that explains the
intricacies of universe!
you know what, the reason is bellow
The Big Bang is the cosmological model of the initial conditions and
subsequent development of the Universe that is supported by the most
comprehensive and accurate explanations from current scientific evidence
and observation.[1][2] As used by cosmologists, the term Big Bang
generally refers to the idea that the Universe has expanded from a
primordial hot and dense initial condition at some finite time in the
past (currently estimated to have been approximately 13.7 billion years
ago[3]), and continues to expand to this day.
Georges Lemaître proposed what became known as the Big Bang theory of the
origin of the Universe, although he called it his "hypothesis of the
primeval atom". The framework for the model relies on Albert Einstein's
general relativity and on simplifying assumptions (such as homogeneity
and isotropy of space). The governing equations had been formulated by
Alexander Friedmann. After Edwin Hubble discovered in 1929 that the
distances to far away galaxies were generally proportional to their
redshifts, as suggested by Lemaître in 1927, this observation was taken
to indicate that all very distant galaxies and clusters have an apparent
velocity directly away from our vantage point: the farther away, the
higher the apparent velocity.[4] If the distance between galaxy clusters
is increasing today, everything must have been closer together in the
past. This idea has been considered in detail back in time to extreme
densities and temperatures,[5][6][7] and large particle accelerators have
been built to experiment on and test such conditions, resulting in
significant confirmation of the theory, but these accelerators have
limited capabilities to probe into such high energy regimes. Without any
evidence associated with the earliest instant of the expansion, the Big
Bang theory cannot and does not provide any explanation for such an
initial condition; rather, it describes and explains the general
evolution of the Universe since that instant. The observed abundances of
the light elements throughout the cosmos closely match the calculated
predictions for the formation of these elements from nuclear processes in
the rapidly expanding and cooling first minutes of the Universe, as
logically and quantitatively detailed according to Big Bang
nucleosynthesis.
Fred Hoyle is credited with coining the term Big Bang during a 1949 radio
broadcast. It is popularly reported that Hoyle, who favored an
alternative "steady state" cosmological model, intended this to be
pejorative, but Hoyle explicitly denied this and said it was just a
striking image meant to highlight the difference between the two
models.[8][9][10] Hoyle later helped considerably in the effort to
understand stellar nucleosynthesis, the nuclear pathway for building
certain heavier elements from lighter ones. After the discovery of the
cosmic microwave background radiation in 1964, and especially when its
spectrum (i.e., the amount of radiation measured at each wavelength)
sketched out a blackbody curve, most scientists were fairly convinced by
the evidence that some Big Bang scenario must have occurred.
Underlying assumptions
The Big Bang theory depends on two major assumptions: the universality of
physical laws, and the Cosmological Principle. The cosmological principle
states that on large scales the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic.
These ideas were initially taken as postulates, but today there are
efforts to test each of them. For example, the first assumption has been
tested by observations showing that largest possible deviation of the
fine structure constant over much of the age of the Universe is of order
10−5.[36] Also, General Relativity has passed stringent tests on the
scale of the solar system and binary stars while extrapolation to
cosmological scales has been validated by the empirical successes of
various aspects of the Big Bang theory.[notes 3]
If the large-scale Universe appears isotropic as viewed from Earth, the
cosmological principle can be derived from the simpler Copernican
Principle, which states that there is no preferred (or special) observer
or vantage point. To this end, the cosmological principle has been
confirmed to a level of 10−5 via observations of the CMB.[notes 4] The
Universe has been measured to be homogeneous on the largest scales at the
10% level.[37]
# If someone want to read more about this they can read about this topic
on wikipedia, nasa.org, or similar site of European space agency
There is another theory put forward in 80s you might not know and
that is string and M theory. Please go read about these you will find
your answer.
You said I believe in Big bang theory because it has word attached to it
scientific.
# Well for you knowledge I never said I believe in the Big Bang theory
nor ever intend to. I don't know from where you come to this conclusion.
Well make conclusion for their own sake and the reasons you himself
mentioned. I don't need to elaborate that the divert the topic.
# I just accept for the time being these above mentioned theories to be
rational explanation ;scientifically derived possibility for the origin
of universe till further development.
#and that's how the science works and not otherwise, enforcing a belief
system; the one of them that you are advocating.
** Well, the process of construction is said to be complete only when
finally we are in a position to use it, before that it is called as a
construction stage. Hence when man arrived on this planet, for all
purposes as far as the man is cocerned, it can be said that the creation
was complete. If you don't consider this then the creation can never be
called as complete as always some changes will continue to take place.
#Well instead of giving the answer to my question you put this forward.
as you said with the creation of human beings the creation was complete,
and you are want us to believe this.
so for your information the change is still going on though its invisible
our naked eyes because its happening at the genetic level. if you know
these changes takes place over thousands of years in accordance with laws
of genetic mutation and certain other factors,that's how human beings
have evolved and not appear from nowhere.
* [so please tell me where were the man was residing for the period of
time it took
for the formation of galaxies solar system and earth,]
** well,the man is, if you are a believer of ATMA (soul), not a body
alone but the soul provided with body. I think the answer for this should
be provided by you ?
# I think you don't have the answer that's why your introducing the atma
factor.
so if your above statement is true, it means that God has transmitted the
knowledge to atma(soul) of human being through his divine grace while
earth has become habitable. then he transfered the human beings on earth.
is this what you want to say or the other way around?
Please be sure what you want to say because earlier you said god gave the
knowledge in the very begining. now you are saying got transmitted the
knowledge to atma. not the actual flesh and blood man. please decide
which statement of yours is true. because both these are contradicting
and ambiguous.
why should I provide the answer I am person whose inclination are more
towards scientific fact rather than blindly believing everything that has
been written time immorial as claimed by you.
as you got the absolute knowledge of veda, in my view you are in better
position to answer the question rather than twisting it for your own use.
** If the man evolved from these species only and lastly from ape, then
would you pl. tell, why not the primitive species have vanished one by
one giving way to new species and also why the transformation has stopped
now, why the apes no longer are changing into man and why not the apes
have vanished from this planet.
# As i have said before please go through some good books on the theory
of evolution and specially on genetic principles. you will come to know
why apes no longer changing into man, though change is still going on but
the not the way you want to see it, because nature has strange laws
beyong our comprehension, some of them we have found.
I am not accepting anything blindly that's why this conversation is going
on the first place other wise you don't have stress upon the issue so
much and so far.
** if evolution doesn't mean the way it is being described.
Q. please show some light on the evolution the otherway around as you are
suggesting?
**So if you say the universe evolved, then it means that there was no
knowledge existing at that very time, just every thing was evolving to
reach to some stage ? This means you are contradicting your own statement
that knowledge is always existing and doesn't vanish. If knowledge of
constrction process is existing, then the process of construction is a
set process and not an evolving process
# so you think or rather believe that the universe is as it is from the
beginning there is no change in its constitution since then. if you think
so please go through material evidence painstakingly gathered from the
study of universe by scientist over all these years. please take some
time to go through latest astronomical studies.
#as I have said before knowledge is always there in terms of phenomenons
and laws. we are just researching and discovering them. as in accordance
with the first law of thermodynamics that "energy is never created nor
destroyed". so the knowledge is always present in the form for subtle
vibration.
#and so to say these laws were operating the in the universe from the
beginning we just rediscovered them. and God forbid even if human
civilization ceases to exist, these laws will remain operational.
** Why you are feeling strange " Can you tell whether egg came first or
the hen in the present form ?
# from where comes the issue whether chicken comes first or the egg. well
this is good argument for the purpose of amusement. but we know that egg
can't come in the middle of knowwhere as you are considering it to be in
the case of human. I think you have read books on biology. particulary
the very theory you are trying to prove wrong. if would have studied that
you woudn' have put forward the chiken n egg Qs.
**Well if man didn't came in existance at Tibbet then it would have been
some other place, then why can't it be Tibbet ?
#well my concern is not about the place of origin of man whether it
happened in Tibet or anywhere else on this earth for this matter? I think
you are diverting the issue. issue is about the time frame not the place.
** Can you tell where the first man originated i. e., the man with full
mental ability ? and how much period back ?
# well you would have gone thoroghly gone through what I have written,
you woudn't have asked this silly question. As know can tell you that
with %100 accuracy!
though there is consensus that it has to be africa where humans might
have first evolved, I not saying to believe that as or accept that as
ultimate truth.
** I think you are still believing in the Darwin theory of evolution.
# please tell me if you have a better theory for evolution not merely
based on the scriptures but the material evidence. you are most welcome
to send your desertation to any of the universities or scietific
authorities around the world. so that it can be beneficial for the human
kind toward the better understanding of the world we live in.
**If that’s so, can you pl. tell what shall be the ultimate or atleast
next product after man, because Darvin I presume never predicted it as a
cyclic process ?
# I think you have studied the Darwin but to a lesser extent, that's why
you have put forward this question. please go through it thoroughly. as I
have said changes are still going on genetic level its almost impossible
to for the current advancement to predict those changes. because of the
life span of human, if you can see the genetic principles for further
clarification otherwise it will turn out to be science class.
** From where the question of a virgin has arrived ? should we discuss
Kunti or mother Marry here ?
# I wrote these just to correlate with what you have said that humans are
created as adult. so if that can be possible why virgin marry can't give
birth to child and why kunti can't be unmarried mother?
as this seems against natural process, so is your claim.
and if God can creat adult human beings why can't he send his son to the
womb of virgin women as the christian claims.
**Have you seen any complex firma for creating a product in a factory ?
After all the preliminaries are carried out and the formation of firma is
complete, the end products can be pruduced without any problem and
absolutetly not by first producing a miniature form and then creating
bigger & bigger forms. If human bein can do this , why can't God ? But
for this to believe, you have to have a belief in God, the Creator.
#first tell please tell what you mean by firma because i haven't found
that word.
well if the production starts in the factory, the owner don't usually
throw the machines that he has originally used to produce the finished
product.
the example sited by you is not relevant because evolution, creation is
more complex a process than establishing a manufacturing unit by human
being.
or if you consider this analogy so could you tell me from where god has
got the primary mould (womb) to produce the so many different kinds of
adult human being on this earth.
this is just like your above chicken and egg question. would you suggest
that god created a super size egg with all the nourishment in it to be
finally turn out to be human, and then goes the sexual life cycle of
human evolution.as we know this is not the case.
** Do you want earth to be resurrected, so that you can see this
phenomina for yourself ?
# well don't want that as we have material evidence how earth evolved to
its present stage and the research process is still continue.
**When a factory is installed the starting process is different, but
after the factory is commissioned the manufacturing process is different.
# please explain why the manufacturing process should be different, lets
say machines are installed to produced toy gun, after some time machines
will automatically will start to produce real guns.
**When the car is started you have to ignite the fuel separately, but
once the car starts the ignition is not required separately but becomes
an automatic process. This is how the creation of Universe take place.
#Thanks for enlightening us by siting this simple, terse analogy between
the car engine and process of creation of universe.
#for your information ignition is required in the ignition chamber or the
cylinder so the gases compressed by the movement of piston can inturn
push the piston so that movement continues.
though initial spark comes from the battery.
if the process becomes automatic once where is the need of God?
**The man was created as an adult at the time of his origin, because a
man's child can't survive without a mother.
# what you have to say about the orphans, don't they survive, don't you
heard about the single parents.
**Well I feel you don't believe in the theory of God creating the
Universe, otherwise all these questions don't arise.
#well this your conclusion based on this talk,and I have already said
people derive conclusion which later on turn out to be there firm beliefs
which they afraid to forsake for the something new.
I'm not a atheist or theist.You can say I'm neutral or what I believe is
based upon my intuition, what ever pitty intellect i have and what i
Observe.
and I believe in the creation of the universe by the God but not the you
want me to believe? or rather I should say I am still searching for the
possble answer.
**Now if it is so pl. tell whether the universe is evoluting by itself ?
# as i have said before universe is expanding based on scientific
findings. we know very less about this, much of it is concealed in the
form of what we call dark energy and dark matter.
**if so what are we ? , what our qualities like love, hate, desires,
ambitions etc mean ? how all this evolved in us and why these qualities
are not evolving in material things like say our chairs, tables,
buildings and so on ?
## well you can find answer for this by studing science how these
qualities evolved.
and about the material things you yourself gave the answer because these
are material things not living.
**Is consciosness evolving from material things or is there a difference
between a conscious & non conscious thing ?
# well I think your not sure about the consciousness as well.
where the point comes in your mind of evolving consciousness from
material things, non living things.
though there is consciousness or I would say energy vibration that are
dormant in case of material objects.
as you can see in humans, animals and plants the consciousness is there
but not developed up to the level of human beings.
** First pl. complete the Zigsaw puzzle. The theory is same for all the
species , but it is not the way my friend , as you are describing it. Pl
refer to answer above.
# do you think just because science is not able to able to discover the
missing link of evolutionary history. You can suggest your theory of
special creation for man on the earth.
** This is same when I said that science is the knowledge we acquire
through our senses & efforts. Naturally it includes all that you are
imagining above.
#first of all what I have said is not figment of minds. if that's others
wouldn't be able to observe it the same way.
** Correct, but are you not contradicting this in the theory you are
following ?? if nothing comes out of nothing, how come you have
CONSCIOUSNESS out of INERT MATERIAL ?
# i don't know from where you have drive that I meant say that
consciousness evolved from inert material. offsprings comes from their
parent whether animal or human. don't you believe that they have
conciousness.
as i have said consciousness also evolved from lower to higher as we
observe in the world unless you turn your back to this fact.
**How matter has evolved from ENERGY, when energy is the capacity to do
work and is not a matter in itself ?
# could tell us have heard about the cosmology and E=mc2 the famous
Einstein equation. which think every child is familiar with if doesn't
understand the deeper meaning. don't ask me to explain it to you rather
pick a good book on quantum physics. as I said i don't want to turn this
discussion into a science class because to most of the people its boring
that's reason very few are involved in it.
**But the evolution doesn’t mean evolution of soul from matter and vice
versa
# well I haven't disscused this, anywhere that soul evolved from matter
and vice versa in my discussion this topic nor I even point to this.
so from where this comes into play or just inserted it.
** The process remains same for any Creation. The two processes can't be
contrary to each other.
#well if you think process of remains same for any creation. Do you think
the humans might have been created in other parts of the universe,as you
firmly believe god created humans on earth. so it might possible that god
has also created the humans on other distant planets as well. Because
don't you think if pretty unnatural for the god to create humans being
just on this planet earth and leave the rest of the whole universe as it
is. because for the exploding human population this galaxy is enough or
may few million galaxies were enough for accomodation.
and if according to your above statement other alien species are existent
on other planets. it nearly impossible for us to communicate
with them with current technological advancement. It the moral
responsibility of the god to tell us about them as well, as god gave us
the true knowledge about his creaotion.
** When you can believe in a Big bang theory, whereby every thing came in
to existence in a few minutes,
# How you derive that Big bang theory tells that everything came into
existence in a few minutes. well you should first under the big bang
theory, as i have mentioned above in brief.
**its not understood why you have a hesitation to accept that man can
appear in an adult form.
#well first of all i am not hesitant to accept anything as far as its
based on rational intead for some kind of magic trickery.
**Regarding your hesitation to accept Tibbet as the place of origin, well
if it’s not Tibbet, it will be elsewhere. You can enlighten us as to
where the first human appeared in the present form and how many years
back ?
#well its not the question of place of origin if read what i write. for
further clarification you can check above.
** Well if only three basic partcles, or if we have to believe in current
scientific theory, only from energy the whole Universe can evolve with
all the variations, I don't understand why you have a problem accepting
the fact that a few adult pairs at the begining can create the variations
unlimited. Pl. refer again to what I wrote above "There were a number of
adults which were created at the time of origin and not one and that's
how the difference was created from man to man by the nature without any
difficulty and so conveniently."
#well the possible explanation you are giving for difference in the
humans species doesn't seems right, as we know from our studies of
genetics and law of variatiions.
moreover, i guess god created a number of caucassians, oceanian,east
asian, native americans , africans from them present population evolved
is that what you mean to say.
this is wrong because according to the scientific studies this is not the
case. we have evidence for that.
we are not claiming it because its written somewhere.
**Pl. don't think all people who wok as a scientist are the enlightened
souls, they also can have their own ambitions which can make them behave
in a similar way as others do.
# well i have explained this above. where you get the idea that scientist
are enlightened souls or did mention that. ofcourse as human beings we
have certain inclination based on our past karmas. it applies to all of
us not particulary to scientists.
as i have said before science is based on the contribution of many people
its logical, its not that if some scientist say this is the law of
evolution the all the other scientist are bound to follow the suit.
and I think that's the beauty of it because science doesn't advocate any
belief system like the one you are advocating rather it pushes us to
In Vedas God has indicated
In Vedas God has indicated that the life of Creation is 4,32,00,00,000 years. God is omniscient and therefore he knows that the creation made of the original raw materials named Prakriti should stay for this period only. Thereafter systematic dissolution of the creation is required of the same time period.
God also tought Aadi Rishis of the first generation the science of Time i.e. what is time and how to calculate it, etc. These Rishis tought it to others.
Swami Dayananda has given calculation of the age of Creation in his books, based on the ancient books & tradition. He was a great learned person of the Sanskrit literature and we believe that whatever he has written on this issue deserves serious consideration. We, the members of Arya Samaj, believe that Swami Dayananda is an authority in such matters. However, if someone doesn't respect him in this way - no problem. One can raise doubts and find the truths. We also believe that modern science may also be useful in this search. If any minor mathemetical error is seen in Swami Dayananda's calculation, it is not a big issue.
Vedas are revealed knowledge. God has used many ways to express the truths. Dr Ramnath Vedalankar has written a book in which it is very nicely explained that there have been many ways & styles used in Vedas by God to express the Divine knowledge. Question-answer style is one of them.

well thanks for joining in
well thanks for joining in again.
**God also tought Aadi Rishis of the first generation the science of Time i.e. what is time and how to calculate it, etc. These Rishis tought it to others.
# Don't you think if the God has tought this there shouldn't be any mistakes however might they may be, i think its not minute its about 6 chaturyugis that's means 24 cycles of humans civilisation.
Don't you think such minor mistakes can disrupt the framework of entire universe or creation.
**Swami Dayananda has given calculation of the age of Creation in his books, based on the ancient books & tradition. He was a great learned person of the Sanskrit literature and we believe that whatever he has written on this issue deserves serious consideration.
# so don't you think we aren't serious enough to discuss this issue.or we are not discussing it seriously enough.
Even one of the tenet of Araya Samaj advocate that we should be willing and ready to accept the true knowlege and discard the false knowledge"
don't you think this is one of the very bases on which Swami Dayananda proclaimed the superiority of vedas in respect to other religion.
**We, the members of Arya Samaj, believe that Swami Dayananda is an authority in such matters. However, if someone doesn't respect him in this way - no problem. One can raise doubts and find the truths.
#Believe me nobody is challenging his authority,and can ever disrespect him or can even think about the same in his/her wildest imagination or even dreams.
**We also believe that modern science may also be useful in this search.
#if you really think what you have said, why are you so hesistant to accept that, I don't know.
And science is even not saying to believe that whole heartedly.
Don't you think one should follow one's consciousness, conscience and intuintion when dealing with matter utterly complicate, unimaginatively intricate and subtler than the subtlest;spirituality.
don't just board the band wagon.
As Buddha said "Be your own light" instead of blindly following beliefs how convincing they may apparently appear.
**If any minor mathemetical error is seen in Swami Dayananda's calculation, it is not a big issue.
# Vedas are revealed knowledge. God has used many ways to express the truths.
#don't you think it would have been beneficial for the greater cause of mankind if the God would have told the truth in simple way so we dimwitter human beings can comprehend that. in turn we don't have to form many new sects and religion.
** Dr Ramnath Vedalankar has written a book in which it is very nicely explained that there have been many ways & styles used in Vedas by God to express the Divine knowledge. Question-answer style is one of them.
# if God has used many styles and Q'n'A is one of them. Why can't we use the same to reach the truth. is there restriction by God on this, or is it mentioned somewhere in the scriptures.
*Well I think we got pretty much diverted from the issue.
Namaste
you get what what you see!
Thanks for your valuable
Thanks for your valuable recommendation on reading the Rig Veda.
Well i have just gone through the first few pages of Rig Veda Bhasaya and found the anomaly,
So what you have to say about the other religions which claims there
which claims that there's is true and whatever given there is absolutely true.
Also the topic of origin vividly described there?
Should one go ahead the readily accept that as well as
don't you think that will create confusion, and ambiguity among the seekers.
Please what we should accept as true. or Absolute for that matter.
you get what what you see!
God being Omniscient doesn't
God being Omniscient doesn't do any mistake. Men (souls) being limited knowledge do mistakes.
It is always expected that issues of great importance and subtle nature are thought with due seriousness.
Yes, it is one of the 10 principles of Arya Samaj that we should be eveready to accept truth and forsake untruth.
Swami Dayananda has tried to establish the superiority of Vedas on many grounds, and yes, one of them was definitely its antiquity. But it was not the only ground.
We also believe that Dayananda's thoughts and his conclusions are also to be scrutinized. We don't say that Dayananda is beyond analysis. He himself wanted that his thoughts are accepted only if they sound logical and correct. Scrutiny of his thoughts is always welcome. We are not at all hesitant to accept truth, but it should be a real Truth.
Truth cannot be ascertained just by following one's consciousness, conscience and intuition. Truth needs evidences like Pratyaksha, anumana, shabda, etc. It is said in Nyaya Darshan bhashya of Maharshi Vatsyayan that 'lakshan pramanyabhyam vastusiddhi, na tu pratijna matren.' Dayananda has quoted this in his Satyarth-prakash, and also given 5 tests for the truth.
Swabhavik (instinctive - inherent - natural) knowledge is not able to make one enlightened. Only Naimittika (acquired) knowledge can help one to progress.
Doesn’t it go against the teaching of Buddha to follow Buddha's saying of "Be your own light, don’t follow others.’?
God has described truth in the simplest form in the Vedas. Dayananda has said in 'Upadesh Manjari' (Poona Lectures) that the Vedas are very simple to understand; the language of the Vedas is very simple to understand. It is simpler than the language used in other ancient Sanskrit books.
If we find Vedas difficult it is not God's fault, it is our fault. God knows us far better than what we know about human potentials and possibilities. His works are all perfect. Human recommendations have no scope in Divine works and designs.
Einstein should not be blamed for his subtle and obscure Theory of Relativity.
Swami Dayananda has used Question-answer style in his many books including Satyarth-prakash. It is very useful sometimes to make subject easy to understand.

After we have a nice
After we have a nice explanation From Sh Bhavesh ji Pl. find the answers wrt yr Q's
#well never deny that, the simple reason is that as i have mentioned so many times that science also has not absolute answers itself…
$ The Vedic literature is very ancient & has undergone many a termoils of time, we have to do a lot of work on it. At present there is no support to this most sacred work of Human being. I call it a sacred not because it is connected with some rituals, but because it is the outcome of our Great Rishis, the jewel & fountain of knowledge, who were close to Nature & who lived in God, the creator. So to say that we are claiming any thing is not the proper word.
# I don't know if you realy want to answer the question….
$ You want that all should have the reasoning using their intellect & logical abilities. It is correct. Now if we say some thing is written in Vedas or any other shastras and we believe in it, it doesn’t mean that we are believing in it blindly. We have had the reasoning and after we feel it to be logically correct, not violating any law of nature, then we accept it. After we have accepted it we can straightforward say ,that we believe in it. So I don’t think there is any harm in it.
Mind it no human being can in his inner conscious accept any thing unless he thinks it to be correct as per the knowledge fed in it, the intellect & the mind have been designed in that way. The problem therefore is not the belief, but the problem is lack of true Knowledge.
Q.so how vedas are stands different from them as you are advocating the same ..
$ I think the above answer takes care of this also . Further there is a Ved Mantra which wants you to logically check the Ved mantra itsef before believing in it, so that no one may be able to befool you to believe in a wrong mantra in the name of Ved mantra itself or in a wrong meaning of it. What a big declaration of Truth. If all Religions allow their disciples to follow this rule, all sufferings will vanish from this earth.
Q.so where do common people like me who are neither enlightened for the
$ Correct . See, the Truth remains same irrespective of where it is written, at what time it is written. What was TRUTH at the beginning of the Sristi is TRUTH at Present and shall be the TRUTH at the end of this Universe. You or me cant change it, alter it or add to or subtract from it.
# well I never told to believe it is you who wants us to believe in the supermacy
$ OK but I never forced you to believe in any thing , If you want me to prove why some Rishi has said so,you have to ask the Rishi and not me, ofcourse logically we can always discuss ?
#if you really want to see those observation in person, in that case you have to
$ Thanks for this information.
# Well first of i think you are not at all familiar with scientific processes, how
# can you tell me whatever elaborate description given in vedas, how the rishis
$ Ha Ha ! You have taken the question a bit too lightly. There are as you may be aware of, many a religions which believe that God created the universe out of nothing, so how can we prove it for them ? so can we make two spaces adjascent to each other one having a real nothing & the other having a look of having nothing but from where few things can appear ?
About second part - the problem is that we have been since birth living in an environment in which we are always looking outwards. We have never been taught to look inward. So the result is that for most of us we are a creature always looking out to eat grab posses or wander and nothing more than that. If some one is told to look inside at the ripe age, he just can’t understand. Those who use their physical power know about its physical ability; those who use its intellect, know about its intellectual ability; those who use their mind power know its strength to face all odds; those who know their soul, they realize its true utility & those who can meet the Creator in it & see the Creator inside outside it & everywhere can know & realize the TRUTH. So the body we have got is infact a MARVEL of GOD given to human beings.
Do you think it is not a lab to experiment all the intricasies of this universe, and which is fully equipped in all the ways. But the question is to prepare it, feed it with the software provided by its creator to make an utmost use of it. Do try. The more you try the more you get.
#Have heard about voids. please go through latest findings. You may get baffled
$ The question was wrt , how the common man be made to understand some thing which the scientists have carried out with so many sophisticated equipments . the common man has to be made to understand through common logic only & not through the same process which the scientists followed.
# to this question i have already the gave the answer thousand times that we are still searchin for possible answer for creation and that's why Large Hedron collider is built to search for the God particle.
$ Why scientists believe in the laws which don’t exist or are against the well established laws and go on experimenting on it wasting everyones time & money? Can’t we do some more useful work (as refered by you in the later part) In this regard I would like to mention a story prevelant some 40.50 years back. This was about a Yogi, who was said to have acquired the ability through life long tapasya,of walking over the river water surface.so that he could cross the river. The scientists of that time used to make a joke of it, that what can be achieved by just spending a taka , the Yogi has wasted a full life for achieving just that. You can say its for knowledge, but not following the universal law & wasting energy on it is as good as any andh-vishwas is ?
# I think you haven't carefully read the suggestion what I have made in my
$ -
#well don't you think that's what I am doing. I don't have any bias towards any
$ Well its very appreciable that you are taking great pains to understand the TRUTH.
#Regarding –“ science never claimed anynothing discovered or invented to be final verdict. as you are claiming.”
$ We are not claiming any thing ,but Universal Truths will remain Truth forever and the humanity is free to make use of them & increase their happiness. Our claim for Vedas is not for any of our individual benefit. Vedas belong to humanity as science of today belong to humanity, the only difference is the Vedas were a a revelation and not through the effort of humanity. Of course its understanding and expansion for practical purpose was to the credit of our Rishis & similarly now the credit goes to scientists also.
#well for most of the human population the basic things are food, clothe,house
$ I agree fully with you & for eradication of this spreading of truthful knowledge is a must.
# did I mention in the whole discussion that I possess the absolute knowledge.did
$ If I tell you, you may again say who has written it & how & when ? and why should I believe it ? Still I will tell you what Vedas say. As per Vedas as elaborated by Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati there are three Basic & Absolute things & these are (1) Prakrity (Nature or basic matter) (2) Atma (Jeev or Soul) & (3) Parmatma (God)
# well first of all this is not cumbersome, that's how you come to logical
$ That’s good if its so.
,
#please answer them first and justify them as well.I will be thankful to you for that.
$ There is no problem, when there is no rigidity in mind or a mindset, that doesn’t allow you to undersatand others.
#I don't know what you really want to say. why its futile to discuss question
# don't you think you are advocating blind faith here without questioning. I think
#don't you agree or you have different opinion from this?
$ I fully agree that through q & As we can learn & understand more quickly. The point was about what to discuss first & what cant be discussed fruitfully before some points are cleared.
#well here again you are diverting the whole issue and instead of claiming it your
$ You are misunderstanding it. Infact your talk created a feeling that you don’t believe in God, because if you believe God to be existing , then must also have in your heart a thought as to how a God can work, but there appeared to be some lack of it? Don’t you think that if God existed, then their ought to have some method to transmit His knowledge to its children and that should arise in any one’s thought who considers & discusses God ?
#do you think the job for proving is entirely rest upon the scientific community.
$ About God the scientific Community is not clear and that’s why I asked the q above ,that whether a creator is required or not. And for this you have pointed towards a Large Hedron collider built to search for the God particle.
#did the science denies that there a lot of things beyond its grasp of present
$ Well it’s a very very important matter that before we search for any thing else, we should know ourselves.
# first come out of the preliminary to higher science
$ Does higher science has the capacity to change the basic laws ?
.
#its not just the will power which determines the behaviour there are lot of other.
$ Which is the supreme commander of the body is a very vital q to be cleared. Is it a flickering mind, an analyzing intellect or is there a force inside. I know the scientists are always on a search for some chemicals which of course form a part of the process of the body actions and also are the cause of various feedbacks to run an automatic process of the body, but there is a commanding force. And mind it this force can be proved to any individual if only he wants to know & realize it. So no more scientific experiments required to prove it. Still if you want you can carryout some of these experiments on the beings doing yoga.
# first of all I think here also you are circumventing the issue.
$ Pl contact yourself if you so desire.
# can tell us can anyone possibly to yoga at will or through control of mind. as
$ its not clear ?
# if you know baba ramdev has taken the endeveour to validate the effects of
$ So you are already aware of it. Why not the scientist practice & see the effects by themselves. Its not difficult, but do require regulation of ones attidudes & living.
#did I wrote I don't believe in God or soul.if that's so please tell me.
$ Do you still feel that God & soul are not an important issue to discuss, more important than any thing else, because if man doesn’t or cant know himself correctly, how he is expected to know the other things more correctly? No problem with me, if you cant agree with this.
In our whole discussion where comes the question of believing in God or soul in

Time frame for vedas
Q. Do you believe or accept that vedas contains the absolute truth about
$ If it is Creators knowledge transmitted at the start of the humanity, its logical to take it as True & complete in as far as it is required for the use of human being.
But, if one don’t consider it to be so ,or wishes to verify it or even if he believes in it he is required to use his mental capabilities to clarify this claim by comparing its teaching with the other natural means. As both are claimed to be originated from the same Creator, there should be a perfact Synchronization between the two. It can’t be otherwise.
You have asked -
“There is nothing outside the domain of the vedas , nothing to be discovered, and that is it for all humans being to know about this universe.There is nothing left to be known about the universe as you claim vedas contain the absolute truth.”
Well I will take one example for clarifying this point. We consider the Sun to be the source of energy for this earth. Does that mean that we have to do nothing except sitting before the sun and doing nothing else ? Similar is for the Sun of knowledge , the VEDA. It has all the required directions, without following which the man cant be called a man, but don’t binds you or gives you every thing readymade as sun don’t give all the things we require.
Q. Could you please tell us why In the vedas the issue of origin of
Q. Did the God told them to ask the question so the God can answer their
$ Pl give the ref to Mantra to which you are reffering . Have you read some bhashya ? The VED Gyan was transmitted to Rishis mind, without any discussions, because it was a transmission & not a form of interview between the Rishis & the Creator. Rishis further passed this on to others without any addition or alteration and this process continues till today and that’s why we have the Vedas in their original form available even today.
# It mentioned in the rig vedas about the names of 6 manvantra (svyambhav,
Q. Could you please explain why is that So? if the origin of the universe
$ You are taking the God as if he is any Prfessor or some scientist.The Vedas don’t contain the required knowledge in the form we see in our books of schools or college. You go through some mantras & their meanings in Maharishi Dayanand’s Bhashya.
Further our whole literature has gone through big termoils through ages, & it was Maharishi Dayanand who was able to recollect some of it, and passed this on to us. He would have passed the same to us in much much larger content, had he lived longer. Pl read his life history. Now how Maharishi got all this. He spent his entire life in its search throughout the country and was able to catch the jewels, which he tested in his own lab by meditations & Samadhi.
Q. could tell us why is it mentioned that aryas formulated the time scale
$ For finer details pl. read some relevant books.
Q. could please show some light on this:
$ this information you may have taken from RigVedadi Bhashybumika, is not from Vedas. The difference in the counts of 1000 Chaturyugis to form a Brahm Din & the counts of 14 manvantars has a difference & the reason for this requires clarification. Further I may add the Maharishi has not communicated his own created knowledge but has reffered to the proper sources of references. Some clarifications must be available, about which I am not aware of.
Q. my simple question is why is that so? or did the God has kept this
$ your straight forward ref to God is like your ref to any man who has dictated you some thing. Well this is not so. Well God has given his directions in Vedic Mantras. Who has derived these conclusions & how may be researched.
#Further, tell us why its mentioned that 1,96,08,52,976 years have been
$ About this pl refer to my previous reply . About total life span also pl refer to some detailed search being done by some scholars. Infact all Bhartiyas are duty bound to contribute towards the restoration of Vedic Gyan in full to create a new & vibrant Bharta. Its not only the duty of the few like Maharishi Dayanad to do this, and all the rest keep sitting till the fruits will appear .
#Now please show some light of dev yugas what's there relevance to above
$ Pl give reference to from where you are quoting ?.
Q could please tell us why its said we can't count how many times the
$ All your ref to God is your mindset imagination, as you may have seen this in other religious books.and hence is not relevant. Regarding count of how many time the creation and its record please understand first what we mean when we call this as a Anadi Chakra, the cycle which has no beginning & no end. You have to understand the Concept of God before you understand the way to derive the results. The Vedic God as described by Maharishi Dayanand is a Universal force, which is Nirakar, Sarvavyapak, Sarva Shaktiman and who is available in each and every particle which we can imagine is filled with that force. This force is full of Bliss and hence a source of happiness. These are some of the qualities described in Vedas. The God thus forms the base of all knowledge and whatever appeared in this Universe due to that knowledge i.e., the universe itself. The basic material i.e., the Prakriti in its basic form is a separate entitity, which also has an existence which has no beginning & no end, the third entitity which has no beginning or end is the Atma or soul or Jeeva. So our God is not like the one whose concept you may be having in your mind, who is some body like us, who is sitting somewhere & orders & dictates the humans to follow him. Its all together a different approach, more scientific, than the scientist so far have imagined.
Q. Could you please tell in this elaborate account of origin why God
$ well you scientists have to make a justification to keep your supremacy over others. You could have added why God didn’t referred to English the language of the day ? so that we can conclude God is irrelvent and the scientist of the day are only relevant. In para 2 you mean to say the God didn’t have the knowledge of all this at that time ?
Pl. read Vedas & do some manan & chintan before you comment on Vedas. Find out the vastness of knowledge in it.
Why have you failed to recognize the intellect which is the source of all your research is not created by a scientist. Thanks to God ! otherwise you scientists would have made the whole humanity as your slave .
*************************************************************************
# Well you said activities and results are occuring nano environment,
$ my refernce to nano enviromment was to mean that the finer environment available inside the body is the minutest available environment available anywhere & the Yogis can make themselves capable to experiment in it, of course a great Sadhna is required for this . Well when we say God is available inside our body cant we conclude that the minutest form of the Universe is also available inside it .

.
# I just accept for the time being these above mentioned theories to be

$ Again you have returned to a belief system ? Pl get out of this rut. To start your studies you have to believe in your Guru, initially it was mother & father on whome the child believed and then in specialized fields one has to believe in so many many things & persons, before he is able to establish some Truths on his own So I would recommend the scientists to first believe in to the theory of PRAKRITY, ATMA & PARMATMA and then do further research , the results may be all together wonderful & unprecedented, will save time money & Humanity from unwanted, futile & dangerous researches , which have and are becoming a cause of cocern. We are not here to research like a silk worm (resham ka kida) & ultimately trap overselves inside our own inventions like a cocoon.
#as you said with the creation of human beings the creation was complete,
$ Now if I say you are not trying to understand what other say , but only going on repeating your own things again & again, will it be incorrect. Didn’t I wrote that change continue to take place, but it can be called as complete as for as the human being are concerned. Its not a new revelations taking place for the first time it is a cycle of events which repeat ,Creation after Creation like the days & night go on repeating day after day.
Well you can’t answer so many points regarding the origin,; regarding Creator; regarding your ownself ,still you don’t mind attacking others on only one point that you prove your point scientifically. When you are not sure on your own self pl stop attacking others on frivolous matters first clear your own points.
# I think you don't have the answer that's why your introducing the atma
$ Pl stop twisting the facts. Are you unaware of what role Atma or a soul has ? have you become so big a scientist to have forgotton what Atma means, what Rooh means ? Does Atma requires the knowledge as to how to live in a universe without getting a body. Are you just not twisting the arguments intentionally ?
If I don’t have the answer, have you ,who does not want to accept the existence of a soul. Some time you pretend to ignore the knowledge of Atma and the next time you start saying - ”did I wrote I don't believe in God or soul.if that's so please tell me”.
# As i have said before please go through some good books on the theory
$ if we have to go through books , you can also refer Vedic books, then what to discuss here ?
Q. please show some light on the evolution the otherway around as you are
suggesting?
$ Evolution of Soul is the evolution which is a matter of prime concern for man and not the evolution of Nature which is secondary to this . The evolution or creation running & dissolution of the Universe (you may select the term you feel more appropriate) is the concern of the Creator or God. You can’t talk about Soul , nor about God so your whole concern is the evolution of Nature & nature alone. What happens to man is not your concern. Now yoy may add that science has done so much for human beings. May I ask you is it due to the evolution process, that you are so vigorously professing, that you are able to create so many new things or is it due to the evolution of souls of some persons called scientists ?
# so you think or rather believe that the universe is as it is from the
$ Again you are twisting the statement. Where have I said there is no change ? pl reread the statement. Don’t unnecessarily try to twist the statements just to force your points in the aurguments The knowledge of universe never evolves , it is the universe which undergoes changes in a cyclic order and that also repeatedly without a beginning & without an end. It is your Universe which started evolving some 13 billion years ago. May I ask you what was there before that & why this new process started ?? Again you will keep mum, because you don’t have any answer or clue.
#as I have said before knowledge is always there in terms of phenomenons

#and so to say these laws were operating the in the universe from the

$ Then you need not highlight Tibbet again & again.
# well you would have gone thoroghly gone through what I have written,
$ Are you so sure about it Is it in the plains or is it on the mountains the first man evolved ? Which you consider will be more suitable ? Are the theories being forwarded fool proof ?
# please tell me if you have a better theory for evolution not merely
$ The theory of evolution of man should be the prime concern of mankind. The Ved Shastras are the basic sources of this theory. If man doen't evolves, he suffers, he falls a pray to all the evils and his level reaches below the animal level. If he evolves, he can not only live in peace, he can make other humans and not only humans but every Prani, and not only all Pranis , but the whole environment beautiful, peaceful. He can then further attain or achieve the Bliss which is Universely available and which is what we call as God. On the other hand if he falls and instead of evolving upwards evolves downwards, he becomes an animal, while he is still a man but his instincts take him to the yoni of animals , birds, insects & other creatures and this is the real theory of evolution and not what Darwin has derived. For physical things the change is a routine process which can be either way, but for souls it is a process , the route for which they can decide/select at their sweet will. Now soul is the initiator in the body and not the chemicals. If soul wants to evolve , none can stop its evolution. Souls evolution will result in the evolution of his body components also, and this is how the generations improve or rise and if they don’t improve, there is a downfall. The genes are the prime steps in the formation of creatures , but mind it the evolution of genes also depends on souls. If souls are determined the faults in genes can be removed. Ofcourse the main link of this evolution is the soul & the major area of this evolution is the human body i.e., the man.
# I think you have studied the Darwin but to a lesser extent, that's why

Well, I haven't pasted this
Well, I haven't pasted this blog with malicious intentions as it seem by your comment. If you have read the whole blog you will come to know if an arya is scrutinizing text from other religious books like bible & kuran (whatever wrong is written there so what's wrong in doing with what is written in Vedas. A person can't use to yardstick. If we are revealing the fallacies of other religious books. why can't we do it with the Vedas. Can it not be possible that vedas have also accumulated some dust over long period of time ? Again I'm neutral view towards the age of the universe mentioned in the vedas. but I'm questioning the chronological sequence given. Can't it be a possibility that it might have been misinterpreted?

well i have got this strange
well i have got this strange feeling that you are diverting the on going discussion.
please answer my aforesaid question that I have asked about the chronology of vedas; based on your belief of vedas and don't make this healthy discussion ambiguous.
so that I might be able go forward and ask some other question?
I am put up these question again if someone would like to answer.
*************************************************************************
Q. Do you believe or accept that vedas contains the absolute truth about
the creation and all other things in this whole universe as it clams or
at least its followers? and There is nothing outside the domain of the
vedas , nothing to be discovered, and that is it for all humans being to
know about this universe.There is nothing left to be known about the
universe as you claim vedas contain the absolute truth.
Vedas contain all that what human being can possibly know about the universe
or creation per se?
If you say yes to above statements,
Q. Could you please tell us why In the vedas the issue of origin of
universe is written in Qs Ans form?
As you claimed that this absolute knowledge was given to the 4 rishis by
God based on their level of purity or karma in the very begining?
so could you tell who has asked the question as mentioned in the veda?
and why?
If it is asked by the rishis then your claim that God has given this
knowledge in the beginning to these 4 worthy rishis among the humans
seems to fall apart, as it more seems like these rishis asked the
question in samadhi and got the Answers?
please tell us or its the other way around?I mean
Q. Did the God told them to ask the question so the God can answer their
queries?
I don't understand why there is Q n A round given in the Vedas?
If God has given this knowledge there should not be any question in the
first place,as God knows each and everything?
Don't you think it should be in the form of statement as you claim its
the absolute knowledge?
It mentioned in the rig vedas about the names of 6 manvantra (svyambhav,
svarochish, autami, taamas, revat, chakshush respectively) that has
already been passed and the one(vaivusvath) which is going on but there
is no mention about the names of the rest of the seven manvantras which
are going to happen? except the (Sarvani)
Q. Could you please explain why is that So? if the origin of the universe
is elaborated thoroughly?
Or the God don't want to tell us about them at the time of origin? and
left it for us to discover or ponder upon? Or may be God will tell us
when either they would be finished or going to be started through his
divine intervention to some worthy and pure souls like God did at the
begining?
Q. could tell us why is it mentioned that aryas formulated the time scale
for the measurement for year and shan?
could tell us if this knowledge is received by the rishis straight from
god, from where the Aryas came in to play?
Q. could please show some light on this:
its mentioned that age of universe is equal to 14 manvantars and each
manvantar is divided into 71 chaturyugis?
So this comes out to be 14X71=994 chatarygis.
And there is written in the later part of this elaborate discussion that
One thousand chataryugis is equal to one Braham din and one thousand
chataryugis equal to the one Braham ratri. and God operates this unverse
for 1000 chataryugis or one braham din and then God dissolves the
creation for the same period of time i.e one thousand chatarugis or
braham ratri.
here you can see that there is contrast between the age of universe
between the former and later part of this elaborate explanation because
as mentioned above the 994 chatarugis could not possibly equal to 1000
chatarygis as mentioned in the later half.
There is difference of 6 chataryugis (i.e 6 X 43,20,000= 25,92,0000
years) in the calculation of the age of creation according the
information mentioned in the vedas.
Q. my simple question is why is that so? or did the God has kept this
time of 6 chatarygis so that God can prepare for the process of
dissolution and creation?
or is it so, so that God can rest before starting the next creation?
As you can see there is a grave miscalculation!!
Now tell us whose to blame for this either God who gave this absolute
knowledge according to you or the rishis who messed up in receiving this
knowledge?
Further, tell us why its mentioned that 1,96,08,52,976 years have been
passed and this much time has been passed since the origin of Vedas and
2,33,32,27,024 were remaining years of this creation.
so the whole age of creation comes out to be 4,29,40,80,000 years.
Now please show some light of dev yugas what's there relevance to above
calculation of the time frame for creation.
Q could please tell us why its said we can't count how many times the
creation has happened, or did the God don't want to tell us that
secret,wants to keep it to himself? that sounds pretty absurd because
here the God has given the elaborate account of creation, for just one
creation and why not for the rest of the creation that he has created or
does God forget the total no. of creation he as has done in the mist of
work of creation?
This also shows that these vedas were not god given words as you claim
but these were written by human beings based on their intuition that they
have received in deep meditation?
Well further its written there that this time frame of manvantar and
braham din was given for human understanding only. So there is no real
significance of this? As this satisfy the human intellect or to mystify i
would say.
Could you tell us why the god did not gave us the actual calculation? why
God want to conceal it, as it challenges god's superiority?
Well this calculation is based on the astronomical studies done by vedic
rishis?
and they can be wrong too for reason that you have sited applies to them
also as they are human beings too.don't you think so?
if you have any other explation please tell us.
you can see there are many loopholes?
Q. Could you please tell in this elaborate account of origin why God
forgot to tell us about the Origin or Galaxies, blackholes, dark energry,
dark matter, quantum voids, spread through out in the universe.
or why God forget to tell us about the time frame for the evolution of
solar system and earth. so that we can save our energy resources for more
useful purpose instead of trying hard to find out the age of the solar
system and earth.
This shows that God didn't forget to tell us, its just that there were
not created at that time with some special creation. but gradually came
into existence as we can see today through the cosmological and
astronomical studies.
God also hadn't told us about the species which were originate? solely
left that for us to discover through our studies. or may god might have
thought that's not necessary for us to know the evolutionary history of
the earth and solar system. instead we should focus on the bigger
picture, that is origin of universe or creation.
*************************************************************************
**Well you are not believing in the age of the universe as mentioned in the Vedic shastras.
# well never deny that, the simple reason is that as i have mentioned so many times that science also has not absolute answers itself. as science estimates it to be between 13.5 to 14 billion years. so as you can clearly see even with most sophisticated techniques and advancement, science is not claiming it to be exact figure. as claimed by you based on your understanding of the vedic literture particulary vedas.
**You are also not believing in the fact that Vedas were revealed by God to the four Rishis, and the reason for that ,given by you is that “we found it different based on our observation through scientific process…
Well you don’t believe it because your observation say so. And similarily we don’t believe in yours because Vedas say so. So what’s the solution. The solution is Logic & only logic.
# I don't know if you realy want to answer the question or it is otherwise. as instead focussing on the question we are beating about the bush.
well you said i not believing in the fact that vedas were revealed.
first of all lets take that what belief is
Belief is the psychological state in which an individual holds a proposition or premise to be true
A proposition is a sentence expressing something true or false. In philosophy, particularly in logic, a proposition is identified ontologically as an idea, concept, or abstraction and so on.
Belief-feeling that something exists or is true, especially one without proof. 2 a firmly held opinion. 3 (belief in) trust or confidence in. 4 religious faith.
Faith-complete trust or confidence. 2 strong belief in a religion. 3 a system of religious belief. with or without logical conclusion.
if you know about flat theory it was belief for quiet a long period of time in Europe unless the columbus and others discovered the rest of the world. and Mind you even before the thousands of years before this these continents were inhabitated by humans.
Now we know that earth is spherical in shape.
You said the solution for this problem is logic, but your claim doesn't seems logical either just because its written in the vedas, so many things are written in other religious books as well, those are not all true as the followers of the respective religions believes or have faith. rather than questioning those things based on their intellect and logical abilities provided to them.
Q.so how vedas are stands different from them as you are advocating the same belief system in your above statement?
and Trust me everyother religion is claiming to the absolute and true religion, as you can see in their discourses and publications.
Q.so where do common people like me who are neither enlightened for the obvious reasons of our past karmas,neither are genius enough to see through this stands the chance in this turmoil?
Don't you think we should stop following what the others are saying, start leading our life for our own betterment? and instead of blindly following whatever is there in this world, and stop believing and start questioning? that's how Maharishi Dayanand derived the conclusion that vedas are superiour to all the other religion.
Mind you before that sankara derived the conclusion too, esatablish his sect based on his under standing of vedic literture and other religius books.
same goes for karbir, vivekananda, ramkrishana paramhamsa,aurbindo ghosh, osho, ravi shankar, jaggi vasudev, piolet baba and many others for that matter.
and I not drawing the conclusion whose the best among them.
My point is take the best and leave the rest. because the rest is what we humans subject to based on our inclination, desires, feelings and beliefs and what we observe to be true. as its more intricate and complecated than we think or imagine to be.
**If I say I can’t believe in these scientific observations to be true, can you show all these observations to us ?
# well I never told to believe it is you who wants us to believe in the supermacy and absoluteness of the vedas, though i know based vedas contain a lot more than what meets the eye? It that's is beyond the grasp of current scientifi achievements.
Please don't ask me to elaborate on what I have said because its just based on my understanding it can be just the figment of my mind unless its proved.
**Naturally you won’t be able to do that.
#if you really want to see those observation in person, in that case you have to visit those labs, scientific institutions and obsevatories where the work is being carried out. with permission from those institution.
**Take the most simple fact, which you claimed as a scientific fact “ Nothing comes out of nothing” Now that you are always claiming that you can’t accept any thing without actually experimenting on it, then on what bases ,you have accepted this as a scientific truth ? because you can’t experiment on this. Can you first make nothing; prove it as nothing; and then show us that nothing comes out of it ? Can you make even an inch of a space like this ?
# Well first of i think you are not at all familiar with scientific processes, how theories and laws are fomulated or either you are pretending to be?
otherwise you haven't ask this quesition because even intermediate has basic understanding of science, please don't take it otherwise.
# can you tell me whatever elaborate description given in vedas, how the rishis came to know that to be true, how they experimented on that? I guess you don't have the answer.
**A space where nothing will exist, nothing would pass through it, no radiation or any thing else ?
#Have heard about voids. please go through latest findings. You may get baffled as the scientist are and searching for possible explanation, if have one please share with us after its done.
**Similarily can you prove that without a creator things can be created ?
# to this question i have already the gave the answer thousand times that we are still searchin for possible answer for creation and that's why Large Hedron collider is built to search for the God particle.
**We have read that the matter remains in a state of rest or of continuous motion , unless an external force acts on it?
# I think you haven't carefully read the suggestion what I have made in my previous blog. well i can't force you to do so I can all suggest, its upto your free will.
**You are a scientist & it’s a matter of proud for all of us, but my request to you is to try to understand the others view logically also ,don’t just walk on the surface to find the faults. If you want to prove every thing scientifically, you can’t do it because whatever the equipments & instruments the science may have developed still the limitations of Five Senses, mind & brain remain.
#well don't you think that's what I am doing. I don't have any bias towards any religion as it increases my understanding. as the saying goes
"the larger the island of your understanding the greater will be the shoreline of wonder"
of course science is not able to prove everything so far, that's why science never claimed anynothing discovered or invented to be final verdict. as you are claiming.
I don't want to discusses the the limitation of senses, mind and brain here as it will be a sheer diversion.
**So before we fight for the branches of the tree, lets decide first on the most basic thing first.
#well for most of the human population the basic things are food, clothe,house etc their mundane life they never think above that, instead of questioning with the help of inquisitive mind and intellect. They prefer to follow the belief system. that's what most of the human population is doing as can observe.
** Which are the most Basic things in your scientific opinion which exist in the universe & what are the main properties you consider them to posses ?
# did I mention in the whole discussion that I possess the absolute knowledge.did I make any kind of claim.
if you asking the basic building block (quarks/string)please refer the previous blog. however science is not making any kind of claim for that as well.
**Lets not make this discussion too cumbersome for anyone to understand.
# well first of all this is not cumbersome, that's how you come to logical conclusion by dealing with the various aspects of the problem.
whatever we are discussing is not at all hard to understand if one care to understand at the first place.
**Now few points about rest of your questions. Well all your questions can be answered ,
#please answer them first and justify them as well.I will be thankful to you for that.
** but unless we undertand what is the basic difference between us and come to some coclusions on them, it will be futile to discuss them from in-between.
#I don't know what you really want to say. why its futile to discuss question arise,or you want to say that one should not raise question against what is written in the Vedic scriptures. Just because you believe it to be true to the best of your understanding.
# don't you think you are advocating blind faith here without questioning. I think that's what Maharishi dayananda has discarded in his discourses in satyartha prakash.
#don't you agree or you have different opinion from this?
please let us know?
**Because if I say there is a creator of this Universe & you say No, there is no Creator, every thing is self driven, then we must first decide it either way. If its proved that no Creator is essential in this Creation, then the aurgument stops & all can discuss only the scientific facts for their correctness.
#well here again you are diverting the whole issue and instead of claiming it your are blaiming it on me.
did I say there is no creater of the universe anywhere. please let me know. I don't know why you want to stop the argument. please let us know.
#Nieter of us is arguing we are simply discussing the matter in hand. if you don't want to discuss it that's another case.
**If on the other hand it is proved that the Creator is essential & we agree on this then we can discuss, what & how the Creator do to create and transmit the knowledge.
#do you think the job for proving is entirely rest upon the scientific community. here again you are twisting the conversation to suit your way.
can you tell me is there theory or law as such put forward by any scientist ever that there is know creator. I think you haven't read what I wrote before regarding the origin of the universe.
Similarily unless we decide whether or not the soul has an existence it’s no use discussing what I can do or not do & how it is a part of the creation.
#did the science denies that there a lot of things beyond its grasp of present understanding, i don't think so. its just we don't know much about the qualities of the soul or whatever name you want to give it.
**We may also wait & think about our own world. Whether in our own world & in our daily routine is there anything, which moves without some force or pressure exerted on it.
# first come out of the preliminary to higher science.
** Similarily inside our body, it is the Will power which determines the behaviour of a person.
#its not just the will power which determines the behaviour there are lot of other factors too, which makes a complex heady mix, most of them we still don't know.
**Science may say it is the effect of certain chemicals/harmones etc which makes a person behave like the way he is behaving, but then we can also note that science had so far forgotten the effects, the Pranas can do inside the body. As Yog Rishi Swami Ramdevji has proved that body can manufacture every thing required by it inside the body, whether it is required during a healthy state or in an unhealthy state and the Pranas have a vital role to play. Now whether these Pranas are further regulated by the thought process circulating in the mind & brain, and these thoughts are further regulated by the type & quality of the knowledge we have i.e., the software of knowledge we fed our body computer with ?
# first of all I think here also you are circumventing the issue.
from where comes the topic of baba ramdeve proving whether body can manufacture everything or not. if baba ramdeve has proved it please let us know please tell him to forward his finding to research institute for so that it can be helpful for humanity. as it will solve the problem of hunger and could possible say millions of life.
**Further if you still go ahead the mind can be brought in to full control by the Soul by YOGA.
# can tell us can anyone possibly to yoga at will or through control of mind. as proposed by current yoga gurus.
**So do we believe in this or we still have to experiment on these ? These topics can be discussed before we proceed to the topics, we have undertaken for discussion.
# if you know baba ramdev has taken the endeveour to validate the effects of yoga through scientific means in his yog pith.
**The discussion on how the knowledge was transmitted to human beings, without believing in God or Soul is absolutely a futile attempt.
You can never understand it. Then why to break our head on it.
#did I wrote I don't believe in God or soul.if that's so please tell me.
I think you are avoiding the primary question, the reason I am not sure about, you have the better answer for that.
In our whole discussion where comes the question of believing in God or soul in the first place.
for your information science still don't under soul or God or the creation fully and absolutely as you are claiming, for that scientist are doing the research not promoting a belief system.
Namaste
