Reality of the Objective World

  The phenomenal objective world does not exist outside the limits of time, space, and causation. All objects fill in space and space is created by the movement of time, as also, time is creted by the radiation of electromagnetice waves from the sun. Thus, Time that is created by radiation is a myth since there is nothing like 'what we call space'. Space is empty, vast, deep and endless! How can that which is endless, beginningless ever exist in between? The concept of time that creates space and objects that are deteriorating over time, that fill in the illusory space, makes creation itself an illusion. Illusion of illusion is delusion. We the humans are ignorant as to the nature of all these space, time, and causality and the true nature of existence. We re disillusioned at the end since whatever we aspire, dream, attai becomes meaningless due to the limitations set by time, space and cause and effect. Everything that we desire, material wealth, name and fame, health and happiness, family and friends- all are subject to limitations of time and disappear or deteriorate in course of time due to the 'law of entropy'. A strong well designed building is bound to be dilapidated over time despite the strong steel, cement, bricks and stones! Humans, too, are bound to get old and die in course of time. There is nothing that does not wear out, decay and disintegrate over time. "All that is born should die", is the rule, So, "what was not there before' and 'what shall not be there after' is not real". Only that which endures over time, that which never perish, die or deteriorate, that which doe not come within the limitations of time, space, causality, or maya only is the 'truth', 'sat'. Such an immortal, unborn, eternal 'sat' is called brahmn, and that brahmn does not exists, and it is everywhere. Learned sages said, akasha is brahmn. Akash is nothing but it holds everything. Now, the scietist say, this aksh is also matter, hence it may not be the brahmn. However, brahmn manifest as material world including space (akash), air, fire, water, earth, living beings and non-living beings like the elements, compounds and complex systems of material world, too. Everything is brahmn. This is the 'principle of existence' in a mortal world, a world limited by time. Time eats away everything. The time gap eats away, wear out our joy of attainment, achievements, possessions and our desires will never be fulfilled to our satisfaction.Bhagavan Shree Krishna says, "I am time and I devour everything!" (kaalo'smi....). 
   We should not be in an illusion as to the 'reality of our existence (temporal)'; our existence here is purely temporal. We are bound to exit anytime! Everything that comes to us also disappear! There is a limitation, duration, span of life or shelf life set by time for everything here.
