The Vedic Quest Concerning the Universe, Space and Time


Photo: The Vedic Quest Concerning the Universe, Space and Time ... (3)  The 3 theories of universe from Atharva Veda including some others ...   In Atharva Veda also, just like Chandogya Upnishad, there is a mantra (17.1.19), which says: 'There is sat in asat, there is sat in bhuta, bhuta is reborn in bhavishya, and bhavishya is inbhuta. In kal there are gati, nivrti and sthiti.'  Asati sat pratishthitam sati bhootam pratishthitam Bhootam ha bhavyam Aahitam, bhavyam bhoote pratishthitam..  Atharva Veda. 17.1.19  This is the sutra or formula, which explains the relation between space, time and sthiti. This is also the modern scientific theory that accepts this relation between time, space and sthiti. This proves the truth that in non-existence there is existence. Modern science also supports the integration of ether, time and space . Once this is grasped, one can be sure that a thing can come from nothing.  Contemporary scientists know that the universe is controlled by rules. Whether these rules are eternal (sanatana) or not can be understood on the basis of what was thesthiti before brahmanda and what it will be in future.  If we look at this in the light of Vedic philosophy, as in the Nasadiya sukta, there is the shadow of the big bang theory 'There was no sat, no asat, no akash, only something gahana gambhira.' What was it? Whether it was water or something like that or not, there was no death, no amrit, no day nor night, only apraketasalila.   Nasadasinno sadaaseetdaanim naseedrajo no vyomo paroyat. Kimavreevh kuhu kasya sharmnmbhh kimaseed gahanm gambheeram. Na mrituraseedmritam na tarhi na ratrya ahna aaseetpraketath ''''''''''' Aaneedvataam svdhya tadekam tsmddhanynna parah kim chnaasTam aaseettmasa golahamgreapraketam salilam sarvma idam. Rig Veda.10.129.1,2,3  Then for apraketasalila, tadek (supreme power) has controlled his mental energy and given birth to Kama.  Kamastagre samvartadhi manasoreth prathamm yadaaseet. Rig, -10.129.4 Atharva Veda. 19.5.21  Maybe this was the sphota. Maybe this was the biggest bang.  The second theory holds that time and space are always the same thing. They do not change. In Atharva Veda, Ucchishta sukta, there is this imagination of purnasrishtifrom purna brahma.  Poornat poonaranamudachati poornam poornena sinchyate. Uto tadadya vidyaam yatstat prishichyate. -Atharv.10.8.29  This Poornsrista control the earth like axel of the wheel ( Atharva.11.4.4)  The third theory that the universe grows up to a point and starts decreasing: that is,pracarana and sankocana. Atharva veda talks about two different types of girls, one of whom spreads the thread and the other collects. There is neither spreading or collecting completely. This is the way to explain pracarana and sankocana.  Tantrameke yuvatee viroope Abhyaakraamam vayath shanmayookham Pranya tantoostirate dhatte anyaa naap vrijjaate na mamaato antam. Atharv.10.7.42  and  Tayoraham parinrityanttyoriva na vi jaanaami yatara parstaat pumaanenad vayatyungrinatti pumaanenad vi jabharadhi naake. Atharv.10.7.43
