"Mom, I want to become a genetic scientist. I am currently researching the evolution of man, Theory of evolution by Charles Darwin, have you heard of him? " Vasu asked.
His Mother sat next to him, smiled and said, "I know about Darwin, Vasu. But have you heard of Dashavatar?
The ten avatars of Vishnu?" Vasu replied 'no'. "Ok!
Then let me tell you what you and your Darwin don't know. Listen carefully- The first avatar was the Matsya avatar, it means the fish.
That is because life began in the water. Is that not right?" Vasu began to listen with a little more attention.
She continued, "Then came the Kurma Avatar which means the tortoise, because life moved from the water to the land. The amphibian! So the Tortoise denoted the evolution from sea to land.
Third avatar was Varaha: the wild boar, which meant the wild animals with not much intellect, you call them the Dinosaurs, correct?" Vasu nodded wide eyed.
"The fourth avatar was Narasimha: half man and half animal, the evolution from wild animals to intelligent beings.
Fifth, the Vaman avatar: the midget or dwarf, who could grow really tall. Do you know why that is? Because, there were two kinds of humans, Homo Erectus and Homo Sapiens and Homo Sapiens won that battle." Vasu could see that his Mother was in full flow and he was stupefied.
"The Sixth avatar was Parashuram: the man who wielded the axe, the man who was a cave and forest dweller, angry, and not social.
The seventh avatar was Ram: the first rational thinking social being, who practised and laid out the laws of society and the basis of human relationships.
The Eighth avatar was Balarama: a true farmer who showed value of agriculture in the life. The Ninth avatar was Krishna: the statesman, the politician, the diplomat, the Ambassador, the subtle interpreter, the lover who played the game of society and taught how to live and thrive in the adharmic (unrighteousness) social structure.
And finally, my boy, will come Kalki: the man you are working on. The man who will be genetically supreme." Vasu looked at his Mother speechless. "This is amazing Mom, how did you .... ?
This makes sense! She said, "Yes it does Vasu! We Indians knew some amazing things, but just didn't know how to pass it on scientifically. So we made them into mythological stories.
Mythology creates faith and makes man sensible. It is just the way you look at it - Religious or Scientific. Your call." Vasu touched the feet of his mother and hugged her. She kissed him smilingly.
Our mythology is not completely myth, proven multiple times. In fact, even science is not always perfect but we say its fine.
Did anywhere its mentioned whatever mentioned in Vedas is the ultimate truth and factually correct. It's people's interpretation.
Did Sadhguru tell anywhere whatever he is telling is the absolute truth. No. It's like one scientist says - one theory of evolution. Another scientist says - his theory of evolution.
You are ready to accept different theories of evolution because its science. Which means sometimes one theory is right.
Sometimes both can be wrong. After some years, the a new theory says the old theory was wrong. Science can change theories.
But when someone says in the name of spirituality we expect them to be absolute truth. BTW as i said, Sadhguru never says whatever he says is absolute truth. You don't agree, i a m okay.
Get the concept. Now you want to say fact is incorrect. Good, read Charles Darwin theory. But point is are both saying the same thing.
That is all. Reality is not always what we say. I say you are a creature made of atoms. Some one says your human. Insects see us as completely different.
Get the point. E=mc2. Everything has many different dimensions. Even Science, Spirituality, God. Everything. Nothing is completely comprehensible. Hope you get it. Can we say how many atoms are there in one drop of water.
No we can't. So what you say as Science also has its limits just because whatever it gives proof doesn't mean it is right. Because as i said science cannot completely tell about a drop of water also.
Yes, whatever it says it can prove but again after few years that can also become wrong. Get it. Point is Science also sees just one dimension of anything and that too at that point in time.
It is not complete. Nobody knows anything fully. Not even about one drop of blood. Till today science has not fully understood about one drop of blood.
Even if they understand that is again updated, corrected after few years. So get the point. Nothing is right or wrong. If you din't understand don't say is what we are saying.
Otherwise you are right in your own way of science while Sadhguru is right in his explanations. Question is are you ready to see from their perspective.
As i said about astrology, if you dig deep you will find 7 out of 10 times, a proper vedic astrologer will predict correctly.
Point is you don't understand how? You think how can someone sit and say what will happen. Then why people fail? Why false predictions? Is life predestined? All have to be understood in the context.
It's like do you know there always on earth quakes on earth but does everywhere earthquake kill people.
Same understand Astrology or spirituality has context. Then you can debate whether they are true. But still if you don't believe it works.
Good. But as i said, it works for Sachin, Mukesh Ambani and Amitabh. These are just few examples, I gave, hope you know why?
