Guest guest Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Veda says that this entire world is a homogeneous entity called as Brahman (Sarvam khalu idam Brahma…). Veda also says that all the forms existing in this world are generated from, maintained by and dissolved into Brahman. On scientific analysis it is clearly proved that the inert energy can be the Brahman that is mentioned by Veda. Matter, awareness, light, heat, sound, electricity, work etc. are the various modifications of the inert energy. The inter-conversion of inert energy and all these forms is very clearly proved. The awareness in a human being disappears when the food is not supplied. The food (Annam) and the oxygen (Prana) combine to produce the inert energy. The food is oxidized and energy is released. A part of this energy is converted into awareness in the brain and nervous system. The reverse of this is invalid because awareness is not producing energy or any form of the energy. When the food is not supplied, the awareness is unable to produce the heat energy, which can maintain the activities of the body. The awareness is also unable to produce even a single atom of matter. Therefore, awareness cannot generate any item of the world. Moreover awareness is discontinuous and therefore you cannot consider that this world is made of awareness. The awareness itself is the inert energy in its essential form and thus constitutes the various items of this world or a dream. You can realize any item of this world as inert energy by scientific analysis. To realize this world as modification of awareness is only an imagination. Thus the basic validity of the authority, which is perception and direct experience is absent in the argument of Advaita philosophers. But, there is another Vedic text, which says that everything is Brahman (Sarvam Khalu Idam Brahma). Here, according to Sanskrit grammar, the meaning of this statement should be taken as ‘Everything is under the control of the Brahman.’ This statement can also be applied to the case of human incarnation. In that case, you can say that, that whole human body is Brahman. The cloud illuminated by the sun is almost the sun. Brahman can be taken as the basis of the world and this relationship between Brahman and the world is called the ‘base-based relationship’ [object-substratum]. In this relationship, there is not even a slight touch between the world and God. Therefore, no human being can achieve Brahman without his individual spiritual effort (sadhana). Only by sadhana, can one become near and dear to Brahman. Even in the case of the human incarnation of God, all human beings in the world cannot even recognize Him and therefore cannot become near and dear to the human incarnation. Only by special effort, can a few recognize Him and become near and dear to Him. at lotus feet of swami surya Never miss an email again! Toolbar alerts you the instant new Mail arrives. Check it out.

When you say " awareness " do you mean consciousness? What about the supreme state, that it is beyond consciousness? That which shines on all? That eternal. Well, what about an atom? And a plant? There is some awareness there to. I don't think you speak with knowledge of supreme. Vedanta mean end of the Vedas so why speaking on Veda? Also all duality.
