Birth Death and Rebirth in Vedas

The Hindu philosophy states that all people born on this earth are certain to die and equally certain is the fact that all the dead would be reborn. This concept is enunciated in 27th Sloka of the second chapter of Bhagavad Gita. Its believed that there is a soul (Atman) in every live being and that it goes through the cycle of birth-death-rebirth and ultimately merges with the universe (Brahman). The second chapter of Bhagavad Gita (Slokas 17, 20, 23, 24 and 25) states that the Atman cannot be hurt, burnt or destroyed. In Christianity, there is no antonym for “sin.” You can commit “sin,” but can you commit what is opposite of “sin.” Hindus believe that a person is capable of committing not only sin but also “punya or good karma” (“u” to be pronounced as in “put” – “put it down”). Karma, by the way, means “duty.” There is nothing good or bad about it, just as “duty” has neither bad nor good connotation to it. Why does the Atman (soul) go through the cycle? It is because of the d

The vedic description of the Body-Karma, Aatma-Paraatma, Brahma-Parabrahma

When Aadi Sankara said“Brahma satyam, Jagat mithya, Jeevo Brahmaiva na para” nobody could understand, but when Albert Einstein said “ nature is composed of matter and energy; and matter can be converted into energy” our modern scientists accepted it. Energy is the ultimate reality known to modern science and it emanates from Paramaatma according to Hinduism. Hence Paramaatma is also called Parasakthi. The understandings of the vedic dictum is limited by our level of samskaara and level of knowledge. PARABRAHMA : Brahma means big. Parabrahma means biggest of all ,which indicates the Omnipotent ,the Omnipresent, the Almighty. It is represented by the word “ AUM”. When we say that the entire universe is its own expression the universal brotherhood of all living, nonliving, visible and invisible things are proclaimed Hence a we says” Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”-the entire universe is a family. One who believes this, cannot see himself alienated from the universe - he is part of it.

The Total Number of Species or Life Forms on Planet Earth - Vedas

Modern biologists today can list and name around 1.3 million species of life forms on planet earth. But modern biologists also agree that this number is a significant underestimate of the actual total number of species on this planet, so millions of species and life forms are yet to be identified, named, listed and studied. Even today every year around 15,000 new species and life forms are discovered which keeps adding to the number of known species mentioned above. For centuries Taxonomists around the world have been trying to get an approximate definitive figure about the total number of species on Earth and to list them all. Now let us see what the ancient Hindu scriptures have to say about the total number of species on planet Earth. BHAGAVADGITA The ancient Hindu text Bhagavadgita which which is atleast 5000 years old and dates back to the times of Mahabharatha says in (2.22) that just as one gives up an old shirt to put on a new one, the soul gives up an old body to acquire
