This is
the third one in the sequel of articles on the ‘science in Nataraj idol’.
The lord,
the representation of the Universe is in a dance and in dance every step is
logical and has a meaning and leads to another logical step. Hence, the Nataraj
idol reveals that all that happens in the Universe is for some meaningful cause
and nothing, nothing at happens here illogically or accidentally and this
applies to our lives as well. Even the so called bad or sad things in life have
their own use and effect but, these are not just meant to harm or make anyone
weep or to suffer, but of course we might not now the good reasons behind these
so called bad happenings.
After
all, the dance is not a mechanical motion. It has some life force behind it,
some intelligence, consciousness behind the exhibition of the dance - someone
is consciously doing the dance. The dance or motion of the Universe too is not
just mechanical happenings - it’s all happening by means of some divine
intelligence behind it. This is true in our lives too – our life and works have
some meaning, controlled by some divine power.
In the
dance, there is some coherence in between the body parts, in every step. That
is if the leg moves in a certain manner or angel, then the hand too should move
in a certain logical manner accordingly. In the Universe too, the Hinduism says
it is possible to change or do something at a far away distance just by doing
some related thing at any other place. This is the basis for many things in the
Hindu faith, like – idolatry, tapa, witchcraft, Yagnyas, etc. For example by
doing some ritual here, I can make the clouds to rain or I can make the ‘god’
to come to me etc. and these are not baseless.
In the
dance, it is possible to predict the next step or the future steps – if you
know the art of dancing. In the universe too, for example if you see some
happening, then it is possible to predict what might happen in the future not
only at that point but, at any given point in the Universe. There is nothing
like magic in this, but there are all the inbuilt laws of the Universe or this
is how the universe behaves or is built with. This is the basis behind the
practice of the omens in the Hindu societies and other as well but, they are
not baseless as many modern day thinkers feel.
The
ancient Hindus had deeper wisdom, that’s why they had written in the scriptures
like – everything in the Universe is interconnected with everything else and
there are no islands here.
The
universe is a big machine if one part is moving in a particular manner, some
other far away part is definitely affected by it in a certain manner. If I can
change some part here I can change some other part somewhere else. This
knowledge led to many branches of knowledge in the Hindu faith as mentioned
before like - – idolatry, tapas, witchcraft, Yagnyas, etc. For example by doing
some ritual here, I can make the clouds to rain or to drop thunders or even I
can make the ‘god’ to come to me etc. These practices in India are not just
baseless tricks but, these are too logical to be logical to the modern day
intellectual dwarfs.
Still
some more secrets from the Nataraj idol will be disclosed in the future
articles.
