Query: The Big
Bang Theory... The concept of big bang theory exists in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism since more than 3600
years!
Kaivalya Jnani:
The big bang theory is that
infallible truth in the history of mankind... the concept of which is absolutely clear to every enlightened soul...
yet, a matter of speculation for most scientists.
Having realized God in 1993
after gaining self realization... the concept of big bang theory was made clear to me by God
Almighty.
If the cosmos exists... so do
all souls atmans. These souls atmans manifest a body to cleanse its karma... this confirms the reincarnation theory
(the definition of reincarnation being rebirth of the soul in another
body).
Let us assume a time in the cosmic life cycle when the collapse of the Cosmos
becomes inevitable. Unable to expand further... the dissolution of the Cosmos occurs. This leads to the whole
cosmos reducing to the size of half a thumb. This half a thumb is the sum total of all purified souls atmans in the
Cosmos at the time of dissolution.
At the time of dissolution of the Cosmos... no soul atman can further
manifest. Every soul atman reaches the pinnacle of its glory... the 8.4 millionth manifestation. And finally every
soul atman liberates forever from the cycle of birth and death. Does this mean at the time of dissolution every
life on Mother Earth in whatever stage of manifestation it may be gains enlightenment and finally salvation... yes,
it is so!
Unless all souls' atmans in the Cosmos at the time of dissolution gain their original pristine form... the complete
collapse of Cosmos cannot occur. The entire Cosmos having reduced to the size of half a thumb... unable to contain
itself for long (imagine the massive energy this half the size of thumb would contain) explodes with a big bang.
And starts the formation of a new cosmos... a new cosmic life cycle!
In Jainism, Bhagwan Mahavira does not accept this concept of Bhagavad Gita.
According to Mahavira at the time of dissolution of the Cosmos in whatever stage of manifestation every soul atman
is... the same stage becomes available in the new cosmos. How can that be? This fallacy in the teachings of
Mahavira diverted him from the Wisdom of Bhagavad Gita.
Whatever has been told above is contained in Bhagavad Gita... the doctrine put
forward by Lord Krishna in the battle of Mahabharata. Bhagavad Gita contains everything worth knowable for any
human being to reach the stage of enlightenment and finally salvation (moksha in Hinduism).
As the Cosmos progresses... whenever the environment becomes conducive for germination... souls' atmans manifest a
body. Starting from the stage of amoeba (single cell formation)... the first manifest stage in the cosmic life
cycle... the soul atman further manifests as a multi-cell formation, insect life, plant life, animal life and
finally the form of a human being.
Every single human being before gaining the human form has passed through all
the stages described above. I have personally lived the life of an amoeba, various forms of insect life, different
type of plant life, all animal forms and finally reached the level of human being.
From the beginning to the last... every soul atman needs to manifest a maximum of 8.4 million
lives (an earthly travel of 96.4 million years... a long journey indeed)! In the human form alone we have 1.1
million manifestations. One gains enlightenment and salvation only in the 8.4 millionth manifestation.
After the death of the body if matching parents are not available... the soul atman remains
in suspended animation. If the residual balance of karma is positive... the soul atman remains in heaven. A
negative residual balance of karma gains a seat in hell. The sooner matching parents are available all souls atmans
in heaven or hell again manifest a body.
It is only as a human being one gains enlightenment and salvation. Never from heaven or hell
can soul atman gain liberation.
The gist of the teachings above seems complex but for a true seeker of spirituality... to understand the true crux
of life is not difficult. We simply need to introspect and conclude!
