This verse clearly states that the supreme Lord in the form
of Agni, was both male (Vrushabha, the bull) and female (dhenuh,
the cow). The same is described as Yam and yim, the day and night, as
product of sunrays!
The
supreme Lord, here referred to as Tripurasundari, is the ‘Purusha’
who is the causeless cause of creation; He breathes unto other without
himself breathing.” He is both within and without all this creation. He, the
Purusha, stands Ten inches above the universe. He is three-fourth of the
universe and only a quarter of his creation is this universe. He carries this
universe on his thousand shoulders. He is the indweller, ‘antaryamin’
(Br. Upa 1.4.7; Chhan. upa. 7.25.2; 3.14.1; mun. upa. 2.2. 5 and 11; sha. br.
13. 6. 2.1) and occupies the ‘cavity of the heart’, a tiny space (dahar akasha)
in the heart of all beings as jiva jyoti, the ‘Hamsa’ bird. A number of Upanishat(s)
support this statement. He is the seer of the seer, hearer of the hearer and
the knower of the knower (kEna upa.). From this primordial Force (Adi Shakti)
emanated the ‘Virat’ (brahmanda) and from this emerged the
Purusha who appeared in three other forms of dEva, tiryak, and manava and the
phenomenal world of ‘panca mahabhuta’. Bindu and Trikona represent this aspect
in Sri Chakra. While the Bindu stands for the Purusha, the trikona is the
expansion of the bindu, tiryak.
There is also another version of creation
wherein it is stated, the Lord said, “Let there be Light” and “Lo!
There was Light”. Rather, the stars and galaxies are born! This explains
the principal cause of creation. It is interesting to note that the Purusha
Sukta concept is variously explained in many Upanishat(s) (Tai. Aran. 1.2.3.1;
Shat br. 13. 6. 2.1; shvE. Upa. 3.11)
The Lord expressed his ‘desire’ (icCA) to
propagate Him Self as ‘Self of all’. So also, at the pindanda
level, a jiva is born when the ‘would-be parents’ desired- ‘Let me be many’.
Had there been no desire or will (icCA), there would be no propagation. Had my
grand-father said ‘no’ to marriage proposal, there would be no parents of mine,
nor myself, and subsequently, my family, too! It is all one’s desire, ‘will’
(icCA), ‘thought’ / an ‘idea’ to propagate. In fact, it is my desire to search
for a womb, a family suitable to fulfill my desires, through a person/family on
this earth and get myself embodied! The simple truth is: ‘Had I no desire to
take birth here, I would not be here’.
It is pertinent to ask, “Where and whence
comes my beloved when I desired to marry and propagate?” in fact, there is no
male or female, boy or girl of that sort when we say that all are jivas seeking
some expression; ‘man’ is just an ‘idea’, a name and form of the jiva! Man is
just a vibration of mind, thoughts, and moods! The girl of my choice, or no
choice, is my own creation. If I desire one I create one, two ormore! That form
of a girl sets in as an image in my mind first and then appears as somebody born
of her parents; it ia again due to the ‘desire’, a thought, and an idea, an
image and the ‘divine will’ to propagate. She will arrive as and when time
comes according to divine plan. ‘No desire no world, sansar’ is the principle. It
is no wonder that marriages are made in heaven! But, looking at the increasing
number of divorce cases, somebody quipped ’it is dissolved here’.
When the nature of our existence is viewed
from this perspective (of man that is Mind) where is the question of the
physical body, forms, names and functions and all that? It is just similar to
the fact that the sky that looks vast and empty holds everything from galaxies
to life on earth.
“Mind reins the world and rules it supreme!”
It is reiterated here, that “Mind is Man” and ‘Mind is the World’.
Mind is born of Akash and Prana accompanies it. The English word ‘Man’
is the same as the Sanskrit word ‘man’, meaning Mind. The word manav (manas) is just the state of mind!
Whatever is created as the phenomenal world is just created by the creative
power of the Mind with the active support of the Divine Will through Gods
(Devata). Srividya elaborately deals with this aspect.
Similarly, at the Andanda level,
everything is Shiva; had the one sperm (of sixty million or so that is ejected
during intercourse) not successfully entered the womb (despite resistance!?)
there would be no further process of birth. Had that one ‘cell’ said ‘no’ to
multiplication in the womb it would not multiply to form tissues, organs, and body?
It is the sperm in the cell by divine intervention to propagate, the will of
the Lord through the Creator Prajapati Brahma that the world is populated and
propagated! Ultimately it is the ‘divine will’, ‘Shivecche’
or ‘Shree Hari icCA’. Unless and until the cell division takes place by
the same principle- “Eko’ham, bahusyam”, there is no creation of the organic,
biotic, or human life. Thus, everything rests on one principle of ‘Desire
to expand’.
Hence, it is not the visible solid, liquid, or the gaseous material substances
(including life) that are important here, but it is the ‘thought-particle’,
called ‘Thoughtron’ that is important. Thoughtron (Thought-particles), like the
Hodons (smallest digit of space or quantization of Space-Time), Hadrons (Sub-atomic
particle), Chronons (Time particle), Fermions (Energy-particles), Quarks, Photons
(Light-particles) and Wavicles (Energy-charged particles moving in Wave- forms
at different frequencies), etc. are all now digitized to the smallest number! A
negative (-ve) or positive (+ve) electric charge of Thought-particle (atomic or
sub-atomic) creates or nullifies the universe.
