The Cosmic Creation.......
The Cosmic Creation and its Mystery
What is the purpose of life? Who and what gives meaning to life? Is life pre-destined or we shape it by trial and error as we progress in space time? Do we ever reach a point of time in life when we are able to get a panoramic view of the Past, Present and Blank future to fill, using the building blocs of experience gained in the Past? Can we regress into our past beyond birth and take a peek at our past life or lives?
These are the questions haunting me for answers. I finally found some glimpse of them in Tejobindu Upanishad and Bhagwad Gita in its original form. Our present life may be a continued reflection of our past lives. If we take a holistic view of events and our interactions with our family, friends, acquaintances and their impact on our present life, we can possibly build a fair picture of our past lives and perhaps we may even attempt to design our next life. Our past life can not be drastically different except for some continued improvement from life time to life time.
I am sure others who are faced with the same questions can find answers compatible to their life history. I consider that every human being with functional volition has obligation to himself or herself to unravel the mystery of birth cycle and to achieve the final merging with The Source (Brahma). I retired seven years ago and I decided to use my time in the quest of Eternal Truth. The journey has just began and I will keep posting my reflections as I progress.

Namaste Parasherji: Going back to the past is like travelling a long way through criss-crossing roads, lanes and bylanes toward a destination and when we are almost nearing, trying to track back and walk the routes we came through. Life is too precious to be wasted pondering about the past life or lives. The most valuable is the present. To reach to the Himalayas from Mumbai, it is very important to begin with the Mumbai Railway Station. In the deepest meditation, all questions disappear. And meditation and realisation of the reason for being is possible when questions about the past and future are dropped.
Namaste. Swaha.

Namaskar Swahilyaji: The reference to past lives is purely to achieve a panaromic view, not visible through physical eye, of my Cosmic Existence.It is very essential for final merging with The Source (The Brahma). Without knowing the Beginning and the final end of Cosmic Existence all spiritual efforts in present life cycle becomes redundant. For example we accept that there is a river known as Holy Ganges even without ever going there and take a dip.We are told that it originates from Gangotri and after a long journey through India merges with the Ocean.If we fly over it at an altitude that we can see the Beginning and The End of Holy Ganges that is like encountering and experiencing The Truth.Same goes with my life cycles that I like to view the Beginning and Where it will end without knowing When! All life cylces that I have lived so far are like day and night (Birth and Death)The past, present and future
is relative to Space Time. Once we understand and experience our Cosmic Existence, we go beyond Space Time. The secret of our Existence is hidden in Jnan Karma Sanyas Yoga chapter 4 of Bhagwad Gita. I was lucky to have an opportunity to Travel whole of India extensively by car marketing and promoting Horlicks
I came in contact with variety of Sadus and Sanyasins that influenced my thinking. We may continue our discussion further if u wish. I am sure with our spiritual interaction we learn and share our experiences to enrich our understanding. Hari Om Tatsut
