Gita reflection Ch 8 verses 17 & 18

28th June 2024


  • When you and an ant start moving toward a door 100ft away, you may reach it in a few minutes while the ant will take the whole day. This is because the time it takes to reach the door depends on the body used for the movement.
  • There is an interdependence of time, space, and objects (देश-काल-वस्तु) that determines all experiences of life for every soul. According to Hindu cosmology, Lord Brahma's one day is equivalent to a thousand yuga-s (each yuga being 4,320,000 human years multiplied by 1000), and His night is similarly long.
  • Every day of Lord Brahma begins with the manifestation of all the souls along with their past impressions (vasanas) and the results of their actions. Each night of Lord Brahma is when the souls return to their unmanifest condition. 
  • The Universe is continuously created by Lord Brahma to enable the souls to experience the results of their actions and express their impressions (vasanas).
