Similarity of Modern Science and Vedic Cosmology

 Today on National Youth Day - "We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far".

~Swami Vivekananda

The similarity of Modern Science and Vedic Cosmology

Quieting down of the universe is not simultaneous over the whole of the universe and that in different parts different things going on. But the principle remains the same, that all we see, that is - nature herself - is progressing in successive rises and falls. The one stage, falling down, going back to balance, the perfect equilibrium, is called Pralaya, the end of a cycle (The peak of the curve). The projection and Pralay of the universe have been compared by theistical writers in India to the out-breathing and in-breathing of God. God as it was breathing out the universe and it comes into Him again. Swami Vivekananda preached the basis of modern cosmology to the west before they were known to modern science. He openly declared to the spectators in America long back in 1893 at his speech in Chicago of Big - Bang theory that the whole universe is contracting and expanding. The scientist - philosopher Einstein had the idea that the universe was in the static stage. But he was so great that he had ultimately agreed to the views of the Hindu Sage and accepted that it was his gravest blunder in his lifetime. It was also known to the Hindu sages thousands of years back that the universe took birth 1500-2000 billion years back. The universe was never created. It is only projected. Truth is eternal. An extract on the similarity of Modern Science and Vedic Cosmology.
