WHAT IS
CREATOR bRH'm's
shk`ti CALLED
maayaa
THAT MAKES
SRii viSH`ANu
FUNCTIONAL
From vraaH puraaAN:
Chapter 124:
124.1: suut-muni
said: After hearing the prescribed
kARm for six seasons in a year
pRUthivii (deity presiding over pRuthvii-lok) asked
naaraayAN (SRii
vraaH) again.
124.4-5: viSH`ANu,
I am very anxious to know the most top secret which also is for my
benefit if you are pleased to tell me. Daev,
explain to me what you always call "my maayaa".
What is that maayaa?. What does it look like?
viSH`ANu, why is it called maayaa?
From your answer I wish to know the great mystery about the meaning of
maayaa.
124.6: On hearing her words
viSHANu, who is like a bamboo box
carrying this maayaa,
with a smile looking bright and splendid answered
vsuNDHraa (pRUthivii)
with a sweet speech:
124.7:
bhuumi (pRUthivii),
do not ask questions about that maayaa least it may torment, afflict
and molest with distress bhuumi.
You should not wish to know, understand, comprehend
maayaa.
124.8: Even to this day
RuDRR, InDRR or
pitaamH (bRH`maa)
do not know my maayaa which
pervades extensively and with great eminence similar to an
aatmaa, then
vsuNDHraa why do you ask about its same
st`vM (nature, essence, being,
existence, virtue, truth, strength, energy, inherent power)?

aum bRH`myae nmH:
This imparting of GNaan
by SRii vraaH to
pRUthivii is very simplistic
knowledge about maayaa which any
one can understand when one knows from actual life observation of how the
world functions with very scientific and mathematical regulation, accuracy
and predictability.
The explanation of SRii vraaH
is verifiable by anybody through the empirical observations
in every day life and does not require scientific understanding of the
background operational complexity of the powers of
maayaa.
Creator bRH`m
has said so many times in veD texts
that no creation of His can or is suppose to understand "my
maayaa" but everybody has to be bound by
maayaa to exist as a creation and
do kARm ordained for a creation.
We will continue to study
maayaa in small steps and straight from the original text as
presented in the left hand column in the days to come...
