Spiritual Tourism XXXI - Heavens on Earth
The Birthplace of Sankara, Kalady
It was here Adviata Vedanta was born ! The birthplace of one of the greatest philosophers the world had ever known ! He preached a doctrine which is validated even by Modern Physics, that One Universal Substance makes up the Universe. Whatever be the term you give it, Universal Matter, Universal Energy or Universal Being, it is the Same, the Same !
The Law of Conservation of Energy says that Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. The sum total energy in the Universe, therefore, is an absolute constant. The conserved quantities. It is One Unitary Whole, called by the philosophers as Brahman, the Absolute.
"It is not an Absolute which is non-relative, but an Absolute which takes Relativity in its embrace" averrs Aurobindo.
The Relative Universe, Jagath
The Relative Ego, Jiva
The Relative Supreme, Para
are merely the projections of the Universal Mind, which brings the Relative Universe into existence.
Neither the Big Bang Theory of Cosmology nor the Six Day Creationism of Theology are logical. Creation ex Nihilo ! How can Everything come out of Nothing? On the other hand, Vedanta Sastra postulates that there is no material creation, as matter can neither be created nor destroyed. However there is a mental creation and the Universe exists as a dream in the Universal Mind, Mayayam Bimbithasthwam !
To a Rishi in Cosmic Consciousness, the Universe is a projection of the Universal Mind, Maya Maya karyam Sarvam ! From the Microcosm to the Macrocosm, everything is internalised and externalised by Mind ! Mahat dehadi paryntham.

jnana Yoga and Bhakti Yoga have always fought with each other ! Our aim is not to support any, but give an integral solution to the perpetual fight betwixt Head and Heart !
A well known quote is that the Heart has its own reasons which the Head need not know of. All Religions averr that Love is greater than Intelligence.
If the HIghest Wisdom is Love, we have to move from an intellect based living to a heart centred living, thus modifying the Equation Prajnanasya Nama dheyani Bhavantu Sarvam to Premasya Nama dheyani Bhavantu Sarvam. Prajnane Pratishtitam to Preme Pratishtitam and PrAjnanam Brahma to Premam Brahma !
Not only is there a fight for supremacy between VIrtue and VIce but other fights also. Beween Conscience and Expedience. Between Head and the Heart.
