Question is why we are brought here to do the divine work? I think after competition of his work when the world become beautiful at that time if we were brought then it would be better. Before completion of work it is painful to conduct a smooth life. Then some negative questions also arouse to mind that divine is selfish for his desire of making world beautiful she is using us.
The Divine does not need us to do Her Work. She is quite capable of creating Her own instruments for the manifestation. But then such a manifestation will be limited in its accessibility and would mean nothing to the evolutionary creatures like us. We can put it somewhat like this that if an infant was suddenly placed in the midst of a grand opera where top musicians are playing a rare celestial music. The infant will either be overwhelmed and grow restless or else just sleep off. To really enjoy the grand orchestra it must grow up.
So too with this world. It is born out of delight, is sustained and nourished by delight, it seeks for delight and will one day culminate in the fullness of delight. But to take the full share of the delight each unit must grow into the WHOLENESS of the Divine.
This growth, like all progress is sometimes difficult and challenging. But once we understand that we are here for progress then we start enjoying the journey. However if we seek pleasure then pain follows as a reminder of our imperfect joy.
Yes very nice sir, the divine is helping us to make eligible for the future environment for our existence or supramental species. He is not using us he is much more capable to do it in one second.
Now question is from where the divine evolved before the bombardment of planets or after? Has he crossed all these levels before us? As we evolved from single cellular species like amoeba, plants to developed human species. And it is the evidence that during the 9 month pregnancy of a human species as in the womb the baby takes all the similar shapes like egg shape fish dog monkey etc. etc.& finally the human baby child come out from the womb. & in every life we have struggled a lot. Question is what is the origin of the creator?
The question about the origin of the Creator is a tricky one because the moment we say that the origin of the Creator is X we will be obliged to ask about the origin of X and so on and so forth. Indian thought answered it somewhat like this.
We speak of origin as well as cause and effecf only for things that are limited either in terms of Time and / or Space, in short about finite things. So it reflected upon the origin of Time and Space to find the original Cause. The result of their inquiry and meditation took them to a state beyond Time and Space. They experienced the sense of boundlessness and timelessness. It is easy enough to experience this when we are concentrated upon the sense of self or who am I. The moment we are in contact with the 'I' not as I am this or I am that but pure I then, as long as the contact lasts, it is impossible to conceive of Space and Time as if this I could be anywhere and at any point of Time in an eternal Now. Going further and deeper in terms of self experience they discovered that the objective world is the result of the play of Substance and Energy on the one hand and, of the mind and senses (which are channels to feed the mind) on the other hand. Enlarging this picture which is easy to comprehend they went on to say that what we call as the world is the interplay of Energy and Substance or Force and Substance with some Cosmic Mind or Cosmic Intelligence. The two are respectively called as Prakriti and Purusha. Purusha supplies the Intelligence and Prakriti is the executive Force. But what was the nature of this Intelligence as if a pre existent Knowledge foresaw and guided Prakriti. Was it limited or unlimited? Was Nature and its Force limited or unlimited? They discovered that both Knowledge as well as Force are in their essence Infinite. What it means is that howmuchever you may probe it you will find no ultimate end. In other words they found that the origin of Time and Space and this world (or system of worlds) is an infinite Existence, infinite Consciousness, infinite Force whose very core is infinite Delight. Its purpose in Creation is to manifest this Delight of Being as the Delight of Becoming.
All these are discoverable if we follow this process of going deeper and deeper into the nature of things by turning the mind, the senses and the subjective self inwards towards its Source that naturally dwells in everything and everywhere.
This is as far as we can go with the help of thought. There is more but that need not concern us as far as the immediate question is concerned.
