    FROM HERE TO ETERNITY
    All said and done,we are faced with uncertainty of where we are heading.There have been wars all over the world from the beginning We can not say that all the wars were justified. But this has lead to devise new weapons of mass destruction.Overtly or covertly humans have resorted to this kind of destruction.One such weapon is nuclear bomb.First tested in USA in 1945 and two such bombs were dropped on Japan.
    J. Robert Oppenheimer first devised this weapon.When it was tested in USA explosion of this magnitude was never seen before. In his own words he said some laughed, some cried and many were silent and speechless. He remembered and quoted a verse Sloka from Hindu scripture Bhagawat Geeta where Vishnu urges the Prince to perform his duty and fight the war and destroy his kith and kin.To impress him Vishnu assumes the multidimensional weapon form with awesome destructive power. He declares now HE IS DESTROYER ALL THAT COMES IN HIS WAY.He will cause destruction of unprecedented nature.
    If all is destroyed then what is left is the mute question. Bhagawat Geeta further reveals, it is the soul (Aatman) remains unaffected. The so described Aatman can not be harmed by weapons and since it is formless and shapeless it can not be cut into pieces by any instrument.In the same way fire can not destroy it, water can not wet it. Water can act on elements which have physical description and dimension. For the same reason wind can not dry it nor exert any force on it.
    This Aatman is beyond the influence of all the primary forces, fire, water and wind which affect only entities which have physical form and description
    Further creation will take place Aatman is capable of assuming new form of life. Possibility are greater to take rebirth. It is further stated in Bhagwatam how this form takes to life.
    Sanskrit Slokas are highly coded and exact meaning is not available in English or possibly in any other language. Hence is the limitation of our understanding.
    However, the forces of creation assume this function.Thus life is created. Brahma, Varuna,Rudra and Maruta are all the manifestation of natural forces which are directed by God particle in the form of cosmic and rhythmic vibrations life is created and thus we have the cycle completed.
    LIFE IS HERE FOR ETERNITY

    WISDOM OF FAITH--THINKING ALLOWED
    The central truth of the Upanishads, the essence of the Vedanta, the goal of all wisdom and all spiritual practices, the reality of all realities, the quintessence of truth is that the individual self, the embodied soul, the Jiva, is identical with the Supreme, the Absolute, the Brahman, and this is what is meant by the great utterance of Self-revelation of the Upanishads: 'Tat Tvam Asi', That thou art. The nature of the inner essence of yourself and the nature of Brahman is one and the same, free from all change, impersonal and all-pervasive, infinite consciousness. You are not separate from Brahman: you are no other than the Brahman Itself and It alone you are, the Existence-Knowledge-Bliss Absolute, and this indeed, is the final truth which the ...See More
