Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Hari OM! Dear Narayanas in Masks, It is said in our scriptures that there are several Universes and each Universe consists of one Brahmaji. So Brahmaji slightly deviates from perfection his concen tration on the self is little bit away, because he is into creation. In our scriptures it is said that One day of Brahma is called a kalpam and equals 1000 yugams, each of which is 4.32 million human years. Brahma's night is as long as His day and one night corresponds to 8.64 billion years, or 3.15576*10 human day-night cycles. The Hindu concepts of time in terms of yugams and kalpams are well known. Associated with each universe is a different Brahmaji who supervises it over a life time of 100 Brahma-years. Thus, while Ishwara is truly eternal, Brahmaji may be thought of as Ishwara's "representative" for a particular universe over its lifetime. Sri Hanumanji is supposed to be the Brahma of next Kalpam The vedic declaration that the Purusha envelops the creation with just one pada or quarter of Its Being is an indication that the overwhelming part of Purusha is still with Brahman. Poojya Gurudev Swami Chinmayanandaji has provided a very picturesque analogy to indicate the distraction caused by creation in the Absolute. Gurudev asks us to imagine a king riding his chariot at a high speed, with all attention focused on his task ahead, namely to confront an enemy at the battlefield. Resplendent in his royal gear, the king sports an angavastra (a long scarf) around his neck which streams behind him as the chariot charges forward. Tassels at the fringe of the angavastra are fluttering in the wind. The king is aware of the fluttering tassels, but the fraction of attention bestowed on them is tiny. Affairs pertaining to creation distract Brahmaji's concentration on the Self to the same degree, says Poojya Gurudev. This might be the reason we are not worshipping Lord Brahma Onnaya Ninneyiha Randennu Kandalavil Undayorindal Batha Mindavathalla Mama!!!NARAYANAYA NAMA NARAYANAYA NAMA NARAYANAYA NAMA NARAYANAYA NAMA NARAYANO SAKALA SANTHAPA NASANA JAGANNATHA VISHNU HARI NARAYANAYA NAMA. See how much complication, When we divide the only GOD into different names and forms. "WE CANNOT UNDER STAND HIM WE CAN ONLY STAND UNDER" Hare Guruvayurappa! With Love & OM!
