No matter
what science says, ancient Indians were clear that something cannot come from
nothing. What was that ‘thing’ which this world came from?
For want of
a better word, ancient Indians called that thing as Sath – which literally means existence. This world came from Sath and not from nothing. So ‘in the
beginning’ there was this Sath
that created or took the form of ‘everything’ that we see around – the world,
the beings in it, and so on.
How does
one infer that?
We will see
that in the next post.
This is a series of posts based on the well known
discussion in Chändogya Upanishad (part of Säma Veda, believed to have been
recorded more than 3000 years ago) regarding ultimate truths.
