- I have here below my text a story about "Spirit of Universe"
- (="Existence") taken from Indian wisdom:
-
- Hannu.
-
-
- "Earth, water, fire, air, ether, thought, reason, and individual
- consciousness are eight fold division of my nature.
-
- Physical nature that I described is my lowest form of manifestation.
- Another and higher nature of mine is life's principle, by aid of which
- universe is maintained.
-
- Realize that these two forms the womb for all living beings.
- I'am the beginning of the whole universe and that where the universe
- breaks up.
-
- There is nothing outside of me. The whole universe depends on me like
- pearls in ribbon.
-
- I'am taste of water, sun's and moon's radiation, holy OM from all
- veda-books; I'am voice of the space, I'am men's bravery.
-
- I'am eart's sweet smell and fire's heat, life of all beings, self dicipline
- of ascetics.
-
- Know that I'am the basic seed of all beings. I'am wise's buddhi, brilliancy
- of celebrated.
-
- I'am strength of strong, which is not contaminated by lust and passion.
- I'am that love in every beings which is not against dharma.
-
- Know that purity, passion and lifeless are all from me. These conditions
- do not affect to me, but they are in me.
-
- Deceived by these three conditions whole this world does not know me,
- I who am above it and eternal.
-
- This divine illusion, which I bring about and which is based action on
- properties of nature , is difficult to win; but those who resort to me,
- wins this illusion."
-
- "Whole creation lives and moves under power of mistake, mislead by opposite
- pull - and push - forces."
-
- "Because I'am above all changeable and unchangeable, I'am known in general
- and acknowledged Highest Spirit in veda books."
-
- "I penerates whole this world in form of without manifestation; all beings
- are living in me, but I'am apart of them."
-
- "I send warm; I hold back rain and send rain; I'am immortality and death;
- I'am existing and also not existing."
-
- "Meditate that like to all around moving storm wind is binded to the space,
- likewise all beings are depended on me."
