Guest guest Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hare Krishna, Namaskarams. Some time back I read that the cells in our body are replaced every three months by new ones and this goes on right from the birth till death. This set me thinking while contemplating on the teachings of scriptures. Each cell, having different functions all over the body while being in our body is not controlled by us on its functionality yet is part of the body .It is born and dies as long as the life is there in the body and resolves back in total finally on our death. This cycle goes on and on in all jeevarasis all the time until Pralayam. At cosmic level if all the jeevarasis in all the galaxies are the cells in the universal body of the allpervasive Brahman, all solar systems of all galaxies his bones, all rivers in all these planets of the systems his blood and extending all things like that, are'nt we like the cells born and die and replaced like them till ultimately all getting resolved in mahapralayam. Just like we are not involved in the cell's functions Brahman is also not involved in jeeavas's life yet he supports all as substratum. So we are in Brahman and Brahman is the whole. Do we not see the advaitam in that vision? Also day in and day out we resolve back in him in sushupti and born daily in an endless birth and death. What is the difference between this death and the final death where the body is only getting replaced by another one? While writing this it also struck me as to what are we trying to write that has not been said already by the rishis and explained by the acharyas through their bashyams? What do we create that has not been created already by the lord for everything we try to do is given? We are all just specks of dust in Brahman's creation that is anadhi and endless. baskaran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
