Gita Satsangh - Creation

[Guest guest]

Pranam,

 

Your reply is insightful. I happen to have similar

questions as yourself though I never got answers. I

would like to continue the discussion on your

question/answers as it may give me a chance of

furthering my knowledge and gaining some more

insights.

We believe that the manifested world, the creations,

are all maya, and 'false' and what is true is just the

never changing, unmanifested spirit.

 

That being said, I would think that if there were no

creations then the situation would have been like some

kind of utopia where only truth prevailed.

 

I feel this entire creation of so many life forms is

just some kind of divine game where the players win

only by realizing that they are playing a game and

realizing the 'truth' and going back to the source.

But HE is the unmanifested, never changing entity. So

he cannot himself be a creation. And he has got

infinite intelligence. When we pray, we expect HIM to

acknowledge and appreciate our prayers. So, there is

intelligence and ability to appreciate in HIM who is

no creation at all. so, the argument that we need a

creation to have appreciation of existence or

non-existence is not convincing.

-Vinayak
