Our Scriptures & Charles Darwin talks of evolution- Any relation?

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

 

Charles Darwin talks about the evolution of life in

“Origin of Species”. Do our scriptures talk anything

about evolution?

 

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

 

Vedas can be interpreted in line with Darwinian

Theory. For instance, the ten Avatars of Vishnu in

proper order are

 

‘Matsya’ – that can survive in water alone,

‘Koorma’ – that can survive in both water and land,

‘Varaha’ – that survives in land alone,

‘Narasimha’ – half lion and half man, and so on.

 

Another interesting fact in the Sanathana Dharma is

that there is a gothra called ‘Kapi Gothra’. As we all

know, Gothra specifies the lineage of an individual.

 

‘Kapi’ in Sanskrit refers to monkey! Is it not in

line with Darwin’s theory? However our religion

believes that God created all the creatures at once,

and not between long intervals as theorized by Darwin.
