FOREWORD The origin of Jagannath consciousness, described in different

palaeo-literatures and interpreted by various commentators over

the years, is no doubt, shrouded in mystries. This unique culture,

being composite by nature, is a synthesis of almost all types of reli-

gious schools and philosophical thoughts propounded by several re-

ligious leaders and philosophical streams which arrested the atten-

tion of the devotees and learners at various times and climes. Sev-

eral saints, being attracted by the extraordinary features of Jagannath

concept, have come to Puri, the sacred abode of Lord Jagannath,

known as Purusottama Ksetra in various scriptures,and have been

lost with the wonderful manifestations and projections of this unique

culture. As evident from various literary documents, the worship of

Lord Jagannath, the Daruvigraha (Wooden idol) has been in exist-

ence since time immemorial. In fact a clear reference to the worship

of Daruvigraha is available with the Rgveda in the following man-

tra- AXmo `Ômé ßbdVo {gÝYmo: nmao Anyéf_²Ÿ& VXma^ñd Xwh©Umo VoZ JÀN> nañVa_²Ÿ&& (F$H²$ 10/155/3) In spite of the fact that Acharya Sayana, the noted commentator

on the Vedas, has categorically interpreted the said mantra in favour

of Jagannath or “nwéfmoÎm_m» § XodVmeara_²”, some scholars have made

some desparate attempts to discard this interpretation under the

pretext that the concerned mantra belongs to Abú_rñVd only. In

view of the antiquity of the tradition of Jagannath worship in Orissa,

mention of Jagannath-daru vigraha as referred to above, in the vedas

can not be ruled out. Besides, the influence of Vedic rituals on day

to day worship of Jagannath at Puri also corroborates the Vedic

origin of Jagannath consciousness. So many other suktas like nwéfgyº$, lr gyº$ etc. are used in the daily rituals of Jagannath even

today. However, the subject matter of Vedic narration of Lord

Jagannatha needs further discussion and deliberations in view of

absence of any direct reference to Jagannath concept or Purusottam

Ksetra in the vedas as opined by certain critics in recent times. In

this background, the attempt of Shri Atun Kumar Upadhyay, to docu-

ment the present dissertation entitled “Vedic View of Shri

Jagannatha” is a timely and laudable intervention, which is bound

to open new portals in the field of research on the concerned area.

Shri Upadhyaya, a senior member of Indian Police Service, is

already known to the assembly of scholars for his outstanding con-

tribution of translating the famous work of Sri Samanta Chandrasekhar

i.e. “Siddhanta Darpana” in to English, published by NAG Pub-

lishers in volumes.

He has also authored so many other books on various aspects of

Sanskrit literature, which stand testimony to his deep insight in the

subject and erudite scholarship. The present book “Vedic View

of Sri Jagannatha” is no doubt another feather on his cap and the

said document will definitely benefit the readers and researchers

interested in further study on jagannath Culture.

The Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeetha, Tirupati,accredited with A+

grade by the NAAC and identified by the U.G.C as Centre of Excel-

lence fortraditional sastras, is really blessed and fortunate to under-

take the publication of this work with the editorial craftmanship and

co-operation of Orissa Chair, which has been established by the

Govt. of Orissa with the patronisation of Sri J.B. Patnaik, former

Chief Minister, Orissa to promote and propagate the Jagannatha Cul-

ture, as well as the hoary traditions of Orissa. On the occasion of

the publication of the book, I congratulate Mr. Upadhyaya for his

outstanding scholastic contributionsand wish him a grand success in

his future literary and cultural endeavours.

Introduction1.Purpose of the book-There has been many works

on the so called Jagann¢tha cult. All these concentrate

on tribal culture claimed to be anti-vedic and previous

to that. Jagann¢tha is lord of the world and thinking

him as a cult is denigrating Him. This is one of the n¢ma-

apar¢dha to think God as inferior to the supreme and

differentiating among many names of God. In Islam this

is called Kufr translated as blasphemy in English. This

book explains the various facets of Jagann¢tha concept

as per Vedas which are clarified by its limbs and con-

nected texts of Pur¢´as etc. It is not contradictory to

other religious texts. It has also been explained as to

why He is located in Pur¤ town of Orissa in India. It has

been specifically told that Puru¾a is to be worshipped

by Puru¾a- sukta only, which occurs in all the vedas.

Jagann¢tha is called Puru¾a in vedas in a technical sense.

Of the 4 legs of Puru¾a, He is the best among the 3

which can be described in words. Being the best, He is

Puru¾ottama and Pur¤ town is well known as the region

of Puru¾ottama. Vedas describe 3 fold indications of

Brahma, but the names Jagann¢tha-Balar¢ma-Subhadr¢

are related to His incarnation as K¨¾´a, who is consid-

ered as God himself for all practical purposes. So these

names do not occur in Vedas, though Subhadr¢ is found

in Yajur veda (23/18), but it has different meaning and

context.

2.Matters-The book starts with scientific explana-

tion of different concepts of Vedas which have been

destroyed durind past 200 years of British propaganda

that Veda was

Introduction-2 i

song of illiterate cowherds. To explain the historic back-

ground also, an outline of Pur¢´ic chronology has been

given as the Oxford pattern is based on Archbishop

Usherwood interpratation of Bible that world was cre-

ated in 4004 BC and no evidence or logic of any date is

ever given . Though geological theories have well proved

that earth is about 4 bilion years old and world is 8-18

bilion years old as per cosmology theories. Even school-

boys know Usherwood theory to be false, but Indian

Historians in blind obedience to Oxford masters can not

change the dates arbitrarily fixed by Maxmuller and other

masters whose sole declared aim was to destroy vedic

culture. The description of size of various levels of cos-

mos are still more accurate than the modern astronomi-

cal estimates and are given at almost every place in

vedas/pur¢´as. An indiaction of these measures has been

given to explain the theories.

3.Puru¾a levels-An outline of different levels of con-

sciousness called ¢tm¢ has been given. In addition to

the undifferentiated there are at least 18 types of ¢tm¢

mentioned in vedic literature. There is a lot of confusion

by thinking all as one. An outline of the classifiaction

with minimum examples and scientific/logical explana-

tion has been given.

4. Puru¾a-s¦kta-This is the essence of Jagann¢tha,

so it has been fully explained in scientific manner. Names

of animals, castes etc. are only indicative of class as

profuse examples in this verse itself and elsewhere are

seen. The other important chapter in Atharva veda about

skambha (base or foundation) of world has been left

out as it is very big. It can be analysed from the techni-

ii. Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

the book.

5.Worship methods-Land of Jagann¢tha is also of

¹r¤, so ¹r¤-s¦kta also has been given with brief transla-

tion. Methods of worship compiled by the great sage

Vi¾vaksen¢ch¢rya (famous as Trida´d¤ Sw¢m¤) has been

given in original sanskrita without translation. He was a

sage of Buxar in Bihar and had performed yaj®as all

over the country. In each yaj®a, he wrote a book ex-

plaining some vedic text. This has been quoted from

his commentary on Puru¾a-s¦kta written in yaj®a at Balia

dstrict(U.P.) in 1997. The worships are both as per ¢gama

(tantra) and nigama (veda). All these are done through

tradition of Guru which is of R¢m¢nuj¢ch¢rya. How-

ever, except for brief reference of Trida´²¤ sw¢m¤ or

R¢m¢nuja, there is no difference from other schools.

On worship or its procedure, there was no difference

among various ved¢nta schools. Difference was only at

highest technical level. R¢m¢nuja ma°has also use

Lakºm¤-N¨simha stotra written by ¹ankar¢ch¢rya, so

there should not be any apprehension in use of the pro-

cedure by other sects. However, they may show respect

to their line of gurus also while being grateful to Trida´²¤

Sv¢m¤ for his learned compilation.

The worship methods based on vedic mantras indi-

cate the detailed connection of various parts of vedas

with various associates of Jagann¢tha stated in pur¢´as,

local tradition and texts. The deeper meaning of weap-

ons, incarnation, gods/goddesses indicated in vedic

verses by R¢m¢nuja is astonishing and is probably based

on some ancient tradition and his own insight/research.

The deeper meanings

Introduction-5 iii

of the verses in the stages of worship is subject of fur-

ther meditation and research.

6.Presentation-It is very difficult to write a book in

English on vedic subject. In Hindi/other Indian languages,

meanings of vedic words are same for all contexts. Na-

tional regions have only a slight bias for a particular

concept of god in a region. 15-20 special words for that

are common in that region-like ¹iva in V¢r¢´as¤, ¹akti

in Mithil¢, Indra in Orissa, Asam, Thailand, Var¢ha in

Andhra, Ga´eºa in Maharashtra, K¢rttikeya in

Tamilnadu, ¹¢rad¢ in Karnatak, Vi¾´u in north west

etc. It is written in English because it is the medium of

education and standard texts of science are only in this

language. Even Sanskrit is being taught in English. Thus

each word is translated with explanation of that

interpratation. This is difficult as sanskrit dictionaries

have taken illiterate view of Vedas (song of illiterate

cowherds). Sanskrit words have been written with dia-

critical marks and sometimes italics has been used to

differentiate from English words.

7.Dedication-The inspiration for the book came from

the tradition of sage Bharadv¢ja who started scientific

study of Vedas for 300 years. My family maitained the

study of sanskrita by at least one person in each gen-

eration. Many of the concepts of vedas were given to

me in childhood by my father late Sri Chandra ¹ekhara

Up¢dhy¢ya while he was writing Vedic dictionary. He

always quoted the blessing of a Tamil saint to him 14

years before my birth that I will write astronomical ex-

planation of Vedas. Vedas tell that Angir¢ effect is com-

pleted in 60 years. I completed

iv. Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

mathematical commentary exactly after that period. My

writing activity started by command of my mother

smt.Jagat¢ri´¤ Dev¤ before her death in 1986. She had

deep devotion to vedic tradition though she was unable

to read it herself. In path to writing commentary on a

complete branch of veda, description of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

is a necessary requirement as He is the epitom of Vedas.

I have a selfish interest to seek his blessing for being

able to write vedic commentary through this worship by

words.

After my father, I have been guided solely by some

books by Pa´²it Madhus¦Ãdana Ojh¢ of Mithil¢ (Bihar)

in court of king of Jaipur, Rajsthan who is only person

after Vedavy¢sa himself to explore the scientific mean-

ing of vedas (comments by Sri A.S Ramnathan in his

explanation-of G¤t¢ and other books by Pt.Ojha) . His

writings have been made easier by his disciples Pt. Motilal

Shastri and Pt. Giridhara Sharma Chturvedi. Only due

to their works, I could grasp the concept of 7 yojana, 7

yugas and 9 time units, though it hs not been written in

the form given by me. During my hard times while writ-

ing the books, my wife Smt. Tripura Dev¤ and 2 sons

stood firmly in my support by denouncing all comforts

due to which I could complete the job. My knowledge is

solely based on devotion to sages such as Sw¢m¤

Niºchal¢nanda Sarasvat¤, ¹ankar¢ch¢rya of Govardhana

P¤°ha, Pur¤. Prof Harekrishna Shatapathi, Vice Chancel-

lor, of Tirupati University had always admired and en-

couraged me by his own devotion to vedas.

Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Chapter-1

Need for Scientific View1.Distortion of Vedas-Till the advent of British rule,

veda meant knowledge. Prior to that vedic culture and

knowledge was destroyed by foreign attacks by directly

burning the books and institutes. British government

continued the policy and added the removal of available

literature to Europe and destruction by mis-information

and false interpratations. This was symbolized by estab-

lishment of Boden chair at Oxford University in 1831

where Col. Boden donated his earnings from loot of

India for the purpose of uprooting vedic culture from

India for spread of Christianity. This has been stated by

Prof. Monier Williams in his Sanskrit Dictionary, pref-

ace page ix, 1899 which has been reprinted by Rashtriya

Sanskrita Sansthana at subsidized rates for spread in

Indian Universities-

I must draw attention to the fact that I am only the

second occupant of the Boden Chair, and that its founder,

Colonel Boden, stated most explicitly in his will (dated

August 15, 1811 AD) that the special object of his

munificent bequest was to promote the translation of

scriptures into Sanskrita, so as to enable his country-

men to proceed in the conversion of the natives of India

to the Christian religion.

Prof. Wilson has explained purpose of his book- The

Religious and Philosophical System of the Hindus-

These lectures were given to help the candidates for a

prize of 200 pounds given by John Muir, a well known

1.Need for Scientific View-1 1

Hallesybury man and great Sanskrit scholar, for the best

refutation of the Hindu Religious System.

Rudolf Roth wrote in his thesis-Zur Literaur und

Geschlchte Des Vedas-published in his edition of

the Nirukta of Y¢ska and asserted that Vedic Mantras

can be interprated much better by German science of

philology than with help of Nirukta. This view was as-

serted by W.D.Whitney also.

Max Muller chaired the edition of oriental texts and

omitted all Indian sources from which materials were

stolen or looted or the Indian Pandits whose help was

taken to understand the meaning. As per Oxford criteria

of research, this itself makes the work untenable. To

further the aim of Boden Chair for uprooting Vedas, he

devoted his life, but Indian devotees of Oxford call him

Mokºam¦lara-i.e. savoir of Vedas. His own statements

oppose the view-

(1) History seems to teach that the whole human race

required a gradual education before, in the fullness of

time, it could be admitted to the truths of Christianity

(History of Ancient Indian Literature).

(2) Large number of Vedic Hymns are childish in the

extreme; tedious, low, commonplace (Chips from a Ger-

man Workshop, 2nd edition, 1966,page 27)

(3) Nay, they (the vedas) contain, by the side of simple,

natural, childish thoughts, many ideas which to us sound

modern, or secondary and tertiary (India, what can it

teach us).

Life and Letters of Frederick Max Muller was

published by Longman Geen & Co., 1902 in 2 vols.

Some examples

2. Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

of his letters explain his purpose-

(1) Letter to his wife in 1866 AD-This edition of mine

and the translation of the Veda will hereafter tell to a

great extent on the fate of India.... it is the root of their

religion and to show what the root is, I feel sure, is the

only way of uprooting all that has sprung from it during

the last three thousand years.

(2) Letter to his son-Would you say that any one book

is superior to all others in the world ?... I say the new

Testament. After that, I should place the Koran, which

in its moral teachings, is hardly more than a later edition

of the New Testament. Then would follow ... the Old

Testament, the Southern Buddhist Tripi°aka, ... The Veda

and the Avesta.

(3) His letter to Duke of Argyl, Minister of India, on 16-

12-1868 in context of grant for Vedic publication-

The ancient religion of India is doomed and if Christian-

ity does not step in, whose fault will it be ?

(4) Letter to Sri Bairamji Malabari on 29-1-1882-

I wanted to tell ... what the true historical values of

this ancient religion is, as looked upon, not from an

exclusively European or Christian, but from a historic

point of view. But discover it in steam engines and elec-

tricity and European philosophy and morality, and you

deprive it of its true character

Same views were given against Git¢ commentary of

Humbolt by Weber, Loriser and Hopkins. It is not nec-

essary to quote all. An aggressor has to uproot the cul-

ture and knowledge of defeated nation to further his

rule and

1.Need for Scientific View-1 3

contnue loot of the country. They have kept their fol-

lowers in various institutes and handed over power to

them to continue destruction of Indian knowledge. They

are more fanatic than their masters in protest of India

and are without any knowledge except blind copy of

Oxford tradition.

(2) Some obvious blunders- There are many obvi-

ous blunders in Indian history and philosophy model

frame created by Oxford which will be clear to any nor-

mal 8 year old boy who is not blinded by slavery-

(1) Both are still following the theory of Bishop

Usherwood that creation was in 4004 BC as per his

interpratation of Bible. A plain reading of opening lines

of Bible itself makes this absurd. It tells that creation is

in 7th day now as we call 7th Manvantara in our start of

worship with sankalpa (declaration). Sun was created

in 4th day, earth-moon on 5th day etc. When earth was

not existing, day can not mean axial rotation of earth.

When solar system was also not formed, it can only

mean axial rotation of galaxy which is called manvantara

of 306.8 million years.

(2) Present system of festivals in India is as per rules of

Vikrama samvat which was started by Param¢ra king

Vikram¢ditya of Ujjaina (82 BC-19 AD). His astrolo-

gers went to Jerusalem to predict that Jesus was a

prophet. His rule was upto Arab and then Roman em-

pire started from Syria-there was no other state in be-

tween. Certificate of his astrologers was valued because

he was powerful and benevolent. He started his era in

25th year of his rule in 57 BC vernal equinox day with

Chaitra bright half 1st day at Pashupatin¢tha at

4 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

his rule, Julius Caesar tried to start his calender from

winter solstice (then on 25th, now on 22 December),

but people started it only after 7 days with start of Pau¾a

month dark half of Vikrama era in 46 BC. Without check-

ing, historians have written that people followed the gen-

eral rule of starting with new moon. Only Vikrama era

starts with dark half, not with new moon. Thus, even

within the most powerful Roman king Julius Caesar,

people obeyed rule of Vikram¢ditya. King Bhoja in his

11th generation was requested help by Prophet

Mohammed for re-establishing rule of Dharma lost in

Arab after demise of Vikram¢ditya. Some of men in army

of Bhoja who helped Mohammed in his wars were called

Mohy¢l¤-their place is called Moh¢l¤ in Chandigarh (place

of cricket stadium).

(3) After demise of Vikram¢ditya in 19 AD, his empire

disintegrated into 18 parts, and Sanskrita lost its posi-

tion of link and official language (Sarasvat¤-

Ka´°h¢bhara´a-Alank¢ra). India was invaded from all

sides, then his grand son Sh¢liv¢hana stepped in and

chased out invaders west of Sindhu river (Bhavi¾ya

Pur¢´a). To commemorate the event, he started his

Shaka in 78 AD. All astronomy texts of India use it as

reference for calculation which uses day-count from

starting point. So this is called Shaka (=cumulative

count). These two main foundation of recent Indian his-

tory have been destroyed by omitting all references to

their names, though Vikram¢ditya has largest references

next only to R¢ma and K¨¾´a.

(4) Even a foreign writer Megasthenese has written that

attack of Alexander in 326 BC was the second attack by

1.Need for Scientific View-2 5

Ionians (Yavana). The first was in 6,777 BC April month

by Dionysus or Father Baccus. A¾°¢nga-H¨daya of

V¢gbha°a mentions that brew of yava (barley) became

popular in north-west India during his brief occupation.

This may be origin of Yavana name of the race. Due to

liquor of Baccus, it is called whisky. King B¢hu had

been Killed in Yavana attack. His son took back the

empire and ruled the seas, so he was named S¢gara. He

chased Ionians from west Arab to Greece, which is con-

firmed by Herodotus that Ionians came later on giving

name of Y¦nan (Ionia). But medicine system of Arab is

still called Y¦n¢n¤. Megasthenese tells of 153 genera-

tions of Indian kings from B¢hu to Chandragupta-1 of

Gupta period in 326 BC. His father name Gha°otkacha

is correctly translated as barber and name of the last

Andhra king killed by Chandragupta is also correctly

given. But he is equated with Chandragupta of Maurya

era in 1534 BC and Indian civilisation is started from

Rigveda fixed in 1500 BC. Megasthenese has mentioned

Kutub-minar (pillar of Hercules=Vi¾´u-dhvaja) which is

corroborated by Ibn-Batuta. To destroy the real story of

Kutub-minar Mr. Irfan Habib of Indian Historical Re-

search society fist took Rs. 10 lakh grant to publish

translation done by Prof. Gupta in his name, but burnt

the entire manuscript when somebody else pointed out

his description of the pillar (AG audit in 2000). Kutub-

Minar is model of Sumeru mentioned in many texts of

Jaina-astronomy.

(5) Inscription of Ashoka at Dhauli near Bhubaneswar

(or any of the 24 inscriptions) do not mention his adopting

religion of Buddha. Only king Ashoka of Gonanda dy-

6 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

had become Bauddha as per R¢jatarangi´¤, but quoting

that book, epigraphist Hulz of Madras in 1909 declared

that Maurya Ashoka had become Bauddha. Similarly,

first important king of Orissa Kharavel has been falsely

declared Jaina. His 4 line inscription is distorted in 4

ways-(i) 5th year of his rule was 803=tri-vasu-ºata years

after king Nanda. Vasu (=8) was not understood by any

historian in past 150 years and it was changed to var¾a,

making two false versions of 103 or 300 years. (ii) In

11th year, he performed R¢jas¦ya-yaj®a and took titles

meaning Indra who is abused by Jaina texts. But he is

termed as Jaina. For much smaller Aºvamedha-yaj®a,

Pu¾yamitra ¹unga has been charged with revival of Brah-

manism. Br¢hma´a caste was never under attack from

kºatriya Mauryas, and Pu¾yamitra was Prime-minister

of last Maurya king. (iii) Kharavel has called himself

Chedi in south west Orissa, but he has been termed

from north east side (See page 175 of History of Orissa

by K.C.Panigrahi giving wrong details)

Both the great kings merely respected saints of all type

which is opposite to semitic concept of wiping out all

other sects.

(6) It is not necessary to make Ashoka Bauddha or

Kharavel jaina for their praise. Even a person of Vedic

path can be a good man which can not be tolerated by

Oxford fanatics whose only aim is to denigrate and de-

stroy Vedas. Similarly, ¹ankara is praised as opposer of

idol worship. His advaita (non-dual) philosophy does

not mean that god is formless. Even Bible first chapter

para 27 tells that God created man after his own image.

So God is worshipped

1.Need for Scientific View-2 7

through man like images. Koran also starts with sen-

tence-Ya ilah, il-illah-it means that Allah is everything,

there is nothing which is not Allah. Then forms can not

be termed as non-god. Similarly, all the worship in India

is by verses of ¹ankar¢charya-e.g.-¹iva-pa®ch¢kºara,

Dev¤-apar¢dha-kºam¢pana, Viºvan¢th¢¾°ka,

Jagann¢th¢¾°aka and prayers for rivers Gang¢, Yamun¢,

Narmad¢ also. In particular his famous line about

Jagann¢tha is-Jagann¢tha sv¢m¤ nayana patha g¢m¤

bhavatu me-i.e. Let lord Jagann¢tha be visible to me.

Formless object is not seen.

(7) There are lot of deliberate falsehoods spread about

Jagann¢tha. His names Puru¾a or Puru¾ottama, K¨¾´a,

V¢sudeva, V¨¾¢kapi etc. are considered all different.

Even K¨¾´a is termed different in Bh¢gavata (without

R¢dh¢), Brahmavaivarta (with R¢dh¢), of Jagann¢tha

D¢sa, of Jayadeva etc.

(8) Main purpose of Indian Historical Research Institute

at Delhi was not to promote free research, but to block

any truth about India coming out. Pandit Sundarlal had

written two books on Indian history and philosophy-

Indian History of India and Similarity of G¤t¢ and Koran.

Both were banned by Govt and a case was started against

him in 1920 by so called research Institute. The whole

set up of Oxford pattern of research scholars could not

prove a single error of pandit Sundarlal. But case con-

tinued till 1982 when it had to be closed without dcision

due to death of Sundarlal. Same opposition to knowl-

edge is continued by illiterate historians like Bipan

Chandra, Romila Thapar etc. who make up their lack of

knowledge through devotion to

(3) Meaning of Veda-Veda is the real world or its

following aspects-(1) Infinite information content

(vij®¢na) which led to creation (2) Process of creation

(yaj®a), (3) Perception process and its stages, (4) Struc-

ture of world (veda-puru¾a)-structure is called pura, its

dweller is puru¾a, (5) Different zones called agni, v¢yu,

ravi of space, (6) Chain of creation and dissolution (7)

Here there is difference between Itih¢sa and Pur¢´a.

Itih¢sa (history) is chronology of human civilisation.

Pur¢´a is scientific creation of world. Roughly it is same

in each cycle, but redrafted in each era so it is called

pur¢´a (pur¢+navati=old becomes new). The chain is

maintained by tradition of S¦ta (thread)-who are preach-

All the explanatory matter is jointly called Br¢hma´a-

(7) Human veda or beyond-There is another dis-

pute whether Vedas are human or super-human. Both

views have been given in Vedas-they are complemen-

tary, not contradictory. In a sense, both are correct

without offending the view of devotees who call it words

of God, The same is stated about Koran, Torah and

Bible also. However, formless, abstract, universal God

cannot tell the words in same manner as they are told

by man. If we take human mode of talk, then it is not

told by God. It is told by God in a different sense. What

is God and what could be his mode of talk ? This can

be correctly specified only by a person who has listened

to God. In one way, inner voice is called voice of God,

because he is innermost and also beyond everything-

VXÝVañ` gd©ñ` VXw gd©ñ` ~møV…Ÿ& (B©emdmñ`mon{ZfX²)When we join outside world, God means three systems-

Cosmic structure, physical world, and inner world. The

unity of three can be called world of God.

When a man speaks, he expels breath, and after a

pause takes in breath. Similarly, Vedas have been called

breath of God (point 12 at page 12). God is the whole

world, so his breath is the cyclic processes of universe

at various levels. The universe as a whole is Brahma,

identifiable motion is karma (work), cyclic motion is

yaj®a which produces desired objects. These are indi-

cated in G¤t¢, satrt of chapter 8. Our perception of

Brahma engaged in cyclic production is called Akºara-

anna (grain, objects), beings-and Brahma is in all, so

Brahma is in yaj®a always.

temporal also (28). There has to be word before speech

(29). Teaching is by human tradition(30). Temporary

descriptions are generalized (31). Actions of inanimate

are linked by similarity of work of animates (32).

Human expressions have these defects-(1) They have

personal bias, (2) Each man has ignorance, (3) Speech

is affected by language, usage of a place or time, (4)

There is gap between thought and expressed word, it

can be only an approximate representation, (5) The

meaning intended by speaker will not be the meaning

understood by listener (communication gap), (6) Same

thing can be expressed

1.Need for Scientific View-7 19

differently as per context, technical words defined for

each science, and level of knowledge of an era, speaker

or listener, etc.

To make them impersonal, the following methods have

been used-(1) The sage giving that knowledge (mantra)

has to be impartial observer (seer). (2) To become seer,

he has to rise above personal bias, anger, favour etc.

and be in sam¢dhi (equanamity-final stage of medita-

tion). (3) There should be reception with same view,

i.e. faith. (4) Different expresions should be united with

definitions (nirukta), explanations (Br¢hma´a), measures

(jyoti¾a, chhanda etc.), demonstrated by action instruc-

tion (¹ikº¢, kalpa etc.), and unity of several words used

for Brahma and its forms (Brahma-s¦tra). (5) Average

of views of several thinkers in different time and place.

With these methods only, veda created through human

mantras can be eternal and universal. Last such exer-

cise was done by Guru Arjunadeva ji who compiled say-

ings of many sages of his era and recent past and united

them in Guru-Grantha-Saheb, which is Guru after the

tenth Guru. Its recitation is also called ¹abda, which

means Veda.

Puru¾a is also the consciousness of the whole world.

Consciousness is seen as ability to create order or ar-

rangement (chiti). The cause of chiti is chetan¢ (Con-

sciousness). Chetan¢ is at each point and is puru¾a (re-

siding in pura or structure) and the Chiti or design is ¹r¤

(influence, spread in a region).

I.e. we worship the goddess who exists in the whole

world as chiti.

In regeneration process, male is intrumental like a point

only, its work is done in womb of female. So, point

chetan¢ is puru¾a (male) and its creation in a field is

female (ºr¤). In a single form, we do not get complete

representation, so Puru¾a and ¹r¤-s¦kta both combined

explain the world. Thus, Veda is approximately Puru¾a.

This is best possible representation of world but still it

can not be taken as real world.

Or, Hari resides in this pura, so he is Puru¾a. Or, he

was in beginning (p¦rva) of all, so he is Puru¾a. Or,

Vi¾´u is known as puru¾a because he donates every-

thing. Vi¾´u is known as Puru¾a due to these also-P¦r´a

(complete), Pur¢´a (pur¢+navati=old becomes new), or

he is praised by pur¢´as. Or, it is just an usage for

Vi¾´u.

Pa´²ita Madhus¦dana Ojha in his Brahma-siddhanta

(Banarasa Hindu University, 1963, with hindi transla-

tion by Rajsthan Patrika Prakashana, Jaipur) has de-

rived this word in 7 ways (verses 11/172-174)-

Purudh¢+syati=It is the fist and active in various ways of

creation. Verb ½o means to engage in a profession, by

suffixes vi and av it becomes syati. It is called puru¾a

or p¦ru¾a also. (2) Purudh¢+syati =puru¾a also means

that he himself becomes many formed. (3)

Pur¢+ru¾yati=Puru¾a. Ru¾=to kill or destroy, show an-

ger. Delimitation of infinite rasa is to kill it. Creation

occurs by that process. (4) Pur¾u+ru¾yate=it encloses

in puras, so it is pur+ru¾a=puru¾a. (5) pur¢+au¾at=it

burns the covers of m¢y¢ within itself. (6)

Pure+vasati=puru¾a (va becomes u), i.e. it resides in

pura. This is the most common derivation. (7) Pura

means both visible world, and the rasa (uniform mate-

rial of world) which is pura or place of Brahma. The

space of consciousness is called dahara. This can be a

point space or any large space under consideration.

has become killing of goats and eating their meet. Bakar

also means both- God and goat (in India) or sheep (in

Arab). Similarly, in English, origin of word God is Gott

in German which also means goat.

In Hindu (san¢tana) religion also, there are are 6 bali

(offering), one of which is of Chh¢ga (goat). Here, chh¢ga

is mental trend in man like goat which is to be removed

by this. The mantra is-

› N>mJ Ëd§ ~{bê$noU __ ^m½`mV² CnpñWV…Ÿ& gd©ê${nU§ ~{bê${nU_²Ÿ&Here, chh¢ga is common sexual urge centered at

Sv¢dhi¾°¢na (chakra at base of spine). The urges com-

mon to man and animal are stored in gross, finer and

causal bodies for100 lives, older are not evident. This is

to be destroyed by bali. Bali also is form of ¹iva (sarva)

who controls paºu (animal) instincts, and called Paºupati.

He had cut the head of Dakºa when he was trying to do

yaj®a without ¹iva and fixed head of goat on his body

(¹iva-pur¢´a). His priest ¹ukra also was given beard of

goat which is still popular in Islam who are followers of

Kavi (Kaaba) ¹ukra. This increases bala (power), hence

called bali.

At the time of Buddha incarnation also, offering of

goats was very common in name of yaj®a. This aspect

of vedic interpratation was opposed by him as stated by

Jayadeva-

Three parts of the Puru¾a are upwards and the remain-

The final source which is one and indivisible is without

any distinction, hence can not be described. The re-

maining three parts are described. The visible world or

beings are kºara (decaying), its functional identity is called

akºara (non-decaying). The part of a body which is in-

teracting with surroundings is avyaya, which is chain of

transformation. In this sum total of (body+surrounding)

remains the same, so it is called avyaya (inexhaustible).

Since this is beyond the first 2, it is called para. The

Primary source is beyond para also, hence called

par¢tpara. (G¤t¢.15/15-17)

I am defined to be Puru¾ottama (Highest Puru¾a) in

4.Puru¾a parts and time- Time (K¢la) is defined as

the perception of change in forms of puru¾a occuring

by action of M¢y¢ (Boundary) created in the uniform

ocean of Rasa. In astronomy, time is defined as of two

types-Nitya (eternal) and Janya (created)-

other type is measurable and calculated. This is of two

types-sth¦la (gross) which can be perceived and the

other is micro which can be inferred but not perceived.

Git¢ defines another k¢la which is unchanging-akºaya.

The highest k¢la like Par¢tpara is beyond description as

it has no distinction. Eternal time decays the world and

indicates kºara puru¾a-

tion of the people (Loka means world and people both)

H$mb… H$b`Vm_h_² (JrVm 10/30)This is definition of Janya K¢la (generated time)-I am

tures.

Nitya k¢la (eternal time) is called thermodynamic arrow

of time in modern physics-Second law of Thermody-

namics is stated in many ways. Heat energy is equiva-

lent to work as per the first law, but all the heat energy

is not available. Another implication is disorder (called

Entropy) always increases in any natural process. From

fire, smoke is dispersed in air which increases disorder;

but the reverse can never happen-dispersed smoke can

not re-assemble at source of fire. Processes of nature

are irreversible. A man can slowly become old, but old

man does not become young. A fruit can ripen, but ripe

fruit does not become unripe. Thus, a state of any

object gone once, does not return. Thus, this time is

same as death. Each state of an object dies continu-

ously and finally its identity vanishes.

Though all the beings die slowly and finally vanish,

they do their work and retain the identity till they are

alive. A man changes from child to youth and the be-

comes old. There is change every minute, but he thinks

himsef to be the same person. For others also, his iden-

tity is same. The unseen identity is K¦°astha (i.e. at

mountain top). A mountain is named after its top, simi-

larly man retains its name, identity in spite of continu-

ous change. The regular work of a being or a system is

32 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

as per time cycles which regulate the work. The peri-

odic events of nature are measured and they are also

guide for our routine-1.Day-Axial rotation of earth-daily

food, sleep, work cycle. 2. Monthly Synodic revolu-

tion of moon-Monthly cycle in women, mental condi-

tions as per phases of moon (origin of word lunatic),

worships on 11th day of lunar month etc. 3.Year-Revo-

lution of earth around sun-Seasonal cycle, agriculture,

finacial, educational sessions etc.

The natural clock formed by motion of sun/moon is

copied in watches-minute hand moves 12 cycles when

hour hand moves 1 cycle. Moon has 12 synodic revolu-

tions when sun has 1 apparent rotation. Artificial vibra-

tions of quartz crystal, pendulum etc. are also used to

measure time. This measurable time only is used in equa-

tions of physics. But there is a problem. Time in me-

chanics depends on the frame of observer. But in elec-

tromagnetic equations, velocity of light does not change

with speed of observer. There is still doubt whether the

time in mechanics and electromagnetic theory should

be taken as same. In all models of 10 dimensional string

theory, there is a time dimension and another time-like

dimension. Being the most difficult to understand, K¨¾´a

calls himself as measurable time.

As part of surrounding, man takes and expels many

things but the sum total remains the same. If we see the

totality, there is no change in the state and we do not

perceive passage of time. This is called conservation

laws of 5 types in physics-(1) Conservation of mass, (2)

2. Jagnn¢tha as Puru¾a-4 33

Conservation of energy, or sum of mass+energy in quan-

tum mechanics, (3) Conservation of Momentum, (4)

Conserva- tion of Angular momentum, (5) Conserva-

tion of spin or charge in quantum mechanics. The in-

variant puru¾a also has 5 kal¢, but defined differently.

Thus, the comparison of Puru¾a with K¢la is-

Puru¾a K¢la Name in Physics

Kºara Nitya Thermodynamic arrow of time

Akºara Janya Time in equations of physics

Avyaya Akºaya Conervation laws

Par¢tpara Par¢tpara Abstract homogenous source of world

5. Examples of Puru¾a-Puru¾a normally means man,

but in technical sense, it includes not only women but

all living and non-living beings, cosmic and micro struc-

tures. This is explained by examples of human and in-

animate beings which show that same thing is viewed in

4 ways, some of which are visible and some abstract.

(1) Man-This includes women also.

(a) Kºara- Gross physical body seen from outside, felt or

measured is kºara puru¾a which is constantly changing.

(b) Akºara- Despite continuous change, a man is identi-

fied by same name from birth to death. For himself and

for others, he remains the same person. He does his

works in cycles of day, month and year and maintains

the same general personality.

(c) Avyaya-Man as a part of the surroundings is con-

stantly getting something fom outside and releasing from

its body. Intake and output can be matter, energy, heat,

light etc. In that sense it is created by material from

34 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

surrounding. Surrounding is called sea and its material

are wood. Physical body of man is formed by organic

called d¢ru-brahma (made of wood) and that wood

comes from sea-AXmo `Ômé ßbdVo {gÝYmo… nmao Anyéf_²Ÿ&VXma^ñd Xwh©Umo VoZ JÀN> nañVa_²Ÿ&(F$H²$ 10/155/3)

(S¢ya´a-commentary)-That wooden idol (of Jagann¢tha)

made without human effort exists on coast of ocean (in

great land of Utkala). Worship that idol, which is not

destroyed by anybody. On its support only, one can

achieve the highest state. A similar verse is in ¹¢kala

The wooden super-human idol (of Jagann¢tha) seen at

sea coast gives highest state on its worship.

Avyaya puru¾a is chain of transformations of that body.

Our body at present moment has arisen from the body

at previous moment. The chain is called a tree-its root is

called source at the top, intermediate stages are branches

and final product is called fruit (this means fruit of a

tree or result of an action-both in sanskrit and in english)-

eternal).It also means pippala=pib+phala=fruit in which

there is desire. Pippala hs been called Apple in Bible.

Apple also means application of mind). The bodies en-

closed in a (Chhanda) are (transient) like leaves. Only

the person knowing this eternal tree can know the vedas.

Thus physical body is kºara, personality in a life is akºara,

chain of lives or changes in same life is avyaya puru¾a.

(d) Par¢tpara-The above three are individuals, separate

for different persons. Par¢tpara is same for all men, ani-

mals, inanimate, cosmic and micro particles. All are made

up of same electron protons etc. and finally all matter

particles are same as energy. Kºara is with form, other

three are formless.

(2) Tree-(a)Kºara-The structure of plant is kºara

puru¾a. (b) Akºara- The state of a plant from its birth to

death is akºara puru¾a.

(c) Avyaya- Intake of minerals, water, air from surround-

ing and output of leaves, fruit, wood etc. is called avyaya.

(d) Par¢tpara is same for all.

(3) River-(a) Kºara- Physical form of water flow is

Kºara. It increases in floods and declines in summer.

(b) Akºara- The identity of flow channel is same for all

seasons. Whether it dries or changes course, it is called

the same river.

(c) Avyaya- The water cycle starting from evaporation

of sea water, formation of rains and channelizing of rain

water through river from its source to sea is avyaya

puru¾a.(d) Par¢tpara is same for all.

6. Examples from G¤t¢-In different contexts, differ-

ent puru¾a are described. By considering them same,

36 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

there is a lot of confusion. At one place, G¤t¢ says that

¢tm¢ cannot be destroyed, at other place it tells about

killing ¢tm¢- (¢tma-haty¢ ). At single place also separate

puru¾a are mentioned-hVmo dm àßñ`{g ñdJª {OËdm dm moú`go _hr_²Ÿ&Vñ_mXw{Îmð> H$m¡ÝVo wÕm` H¥$V{ZíM`…(2/37)If killed, you will go to heaven. On winning, you will

enjoy the earth. So arise for war wiith determination.

Here, the killed person is kºara, the person winning war

and enjoying earth is akºara, and the person going to

heaven is avyaya.

Examples of 4 types of puru¾a in G¤t¢ are given below-

combination of various human trees.These three sys-

tems are mentioned at start of G¤t¢ chapter 8

(2) Reverse tree-Tree is sequence of creation. The

source is called root and up. Streams of changes are

branches. Physical products are leaves enclosed within

boundary (chhanda). Final consumable is fruit. While

the chain of transformation is permanent like tree, the

products are transient like leaves. The total of mass,

energy, momentum etc. remain constant in a change, so

it iscalled avyaya (vyaya= spending, prefix a is its re-

verse). It is called Aºvattha- ºva=tomorrow, a=not, ttha=

remain. No object will remain in future, so it is aºvattha.

But tree of change is permanent aºvattha. Aºva =horse,

in general it means driving force like see-winds, engines

of vehicles and machines. The force and motion caus-

ing change in universe is also aºva. The chain in that

aºva is aºvattha.

(3) 5 Elements-As per nature of matter the 5 stages of

creation are like 5 elements-Svayambh¦ (=self created)

is very rare matter like ¢k¢ºa (sky), motion starts from

galaxy, so it is v¢yu (air). Its point is sun which is burn-

ing like fuel, so it is Indra (indha=to burn). As radiation,

Indra is everywhere and is transformed into all objects,

so Sun is ¢tm¢ (soul) of universe. In solar system, zone

near earth has balanced energy and matter, so it is soma

(spread matter or energy) indicated by sphere contain-

ing moon orbit. Last product is earth which is dense

matter, so it is called Agni (=fire, i.e. dense matter;

dense heat energy is normally called agni ).

(4)Two sources-Original source of all is Brahma which

is

44 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

rasa i.e. uniform or homogenous (same in all places),

isotropic (same in all directions) and steady (same in all

times). Three way sameness is called tri-satya. There

are many or thousand ways of creation from that, so it

has 1000 branches called Balº¢. Its image in human

body is chakra of 1000 edges (sahasr¢ra) at crown of

head. Creation started by desire. That mana (mind) was

in vacuum, so it is called ¹vovas¤yasa (living in vacuum)

mana (mind). Its image in human body is centre of brain

called ¡j®¢ (command) chakra. because it directs our

actions. Sequence of creation is-

rasa, one feels happy, so rasa means ¢nanda (happi-

ness) also (2/7). He desired. I should become many by

creation... After creation, He entered in it (2/6/4). From

Him, the Supreme soul, was created sky (¢k¢ºa). From

sky arose v¢yu (air, motion). From v¢yu, arose ¢pah

(water=dispersed matter or soma). From ap was cre-

ated P¨thiv¤ (solid condensed matter, earth)-(2/1/3)

(5) 5 Agnis-Final stage earth is called padma (=lotus)

because it is place of pada (foot) which is lowest or last

in body. As final condensation, this is agni (fire), but in

general, all the stages are contractions from formless

rare matter, so they are agni. Among these 5 agnis, we

do not feel the changes in Svayambh¦ and Parame¾°h¤

ma´²alas, being very large and of long periods. We per-

ceive the joint effects of sun, moon and earth, so they

are called three eyes of ¹iva. These 3 agnis are called

N¢chiketa (mixed), chiketa=distinct-

(galaxy is last limit till which sun can be seen as a point

as per S¦rya-siddh¢nta 12/86). Or, scholars see the limit

of Vi¾´u. (Cells in human brain are equal in number to

stars in galaxy, so s¦rayah means suns or scholars-both).

(7) S¦tras of Maheºwara-Maheºwara (=Lord of Mahar-

loka=¹iva) started the creation by sounding his double-

cone (called ±amaru) organ 14 times. This gave rise to

14 lokas (grades of living beings). The sounds are 14

groups of sounds which are basis of tantra and grammer

both. Grammer of P¢´ini is based on codes formed by

these letter groups. Tantra and cosmology is explained

by K¢ºik¢ of Upamnyu. Letters of this group are key

words in mantras of Islam and Hindu tantra both. The

first 5 letters are the root vowels (Svara) of Sanskrita

and they indicate the sequence of cosmic creation. The

first 5 consonants are corresponding sounds pronounced

from same place in mouth. They are called inner sounds

as they are caused by breath from deeper part of stom-

ach and indicate corresponding systems of human body

which are part of cosmic structures. The 5 root vowels

are in fist 2 s¦tras-

ABCU²Ÿ& F$b¥H²$Ÿ& (A, I, U, §, µ)

The first 5 consonants also occur in 2 s¦tras (4+1 here)-

h`daQ²>Ÿ& bU²Ÿ& (h, y,v, r, l )

The last half letters without vowel are markers indicat-

ing end of s¦tra. For yogic practice, sv¢dhi¾°h¢na is at

base of spine, and above it, ma´ip¦ra is behind navel.

All points in vertebrae are centers of various aspects of

body. However, taking parallel to creation (s¨¾°i) se-

quence (krama), position of these are interchanged. This

is called s¨¾°i-krama indicated by verse 9 of Saundarya-

=The primordial power resides in m¦l¢dh¢ra as earth

ele-

ment, in ma´p¦ra as water, in sv¢dhi¾°h¢na as fire, in

heart chakra (an¢hata) as air, and as sky above it (in

viºuddhi). By piercing all these, it reaches mana (mind)

behind eyebrow-centre (¢j®¢) and reaches abode of its

master in sahasr¢ra.

(8) Measure of structures-Measures of all these

structures are given at several places in vedas and pur¢´as

in 7 units of length-(1)Nara (human) yojana=32,000

hands (L¤l¢vat¤ of Bh¢skara-II, chapter 1. (2) Bh¦ (earth)

yojana-1000 or 1600 parts of earth diameter or 3000/

5000 parts of circumference (3) Bha (=27, or constella-

tions numbering 27) yojana=27 times earth yojana in

s¦rya-siddh¢nta, for distances of sun, starry planets, and

size of galaxy. Here, earth yojana=1600 parts of

diameter=about 8 km. (4) Light yojana in Bh¢gavata

pur¢´a (3/11)=distance travelled by light in tru°i time

equal to 33,750 parts of second. (5) Dh¢ma yojana in

(§k 10/189/3, 1/123/8) of 2 types-(a) Kºara dh¢ma=1/

20 of earth circumferenc=55.5 Kms. (b) Akºara dh¢ma-

Measure of cosmic levels in exponential scale is equal

to akºara (syllable) numbers of chhandas (meter of poem).

Distance of dh¢ma number n =r x 2 (n-3) . (6) Sun diam-

eter (=13,92,000 kms.) has been called yojana for size

of structures in solar system in pur¢´as. (7) Pram¢´a

yojana is defined in Jaina astronomy texts as 500 ¢tm¢

yojanas, where ¢tm¢ yojana is diameter of sun (which is

¢tm¢ or soul of world). Measures of lokas higher than

solar system are successively in units bigger than solar

diameter by 500 times at each step in pur¢´as.

3 earths and 3 skies and their measures are summarized

in Vi¾´u pur¢´a-

and in each earth, its parts are called seas, mounts,

rivers.

Thus, the 3 earths are-(1) Planet earth lighted by sun,

moon both, (2) solar system lighted by sun, (3) galaxy

being the last limit of sun rays. Their skies are, solar

system, galaxy and universe.

earth

(compared to human size), the same is the size of its

sky starting from earth.

Thus, starting from man, earth, solar system, galaxy,

universe are successively bigger by 107.

Thus, the solar system lighted by sun is given in these

units-

(1) It is zone up to which light reaches in 1 year-Am{XË`mo d¡

g§dËga…Ÿ& (2) 107 times earth size (3) 14 lakh times 500

earth diameter is radius, (4) Diameter of ratha (body) of

solar system is 157 x 105 sun diameters, (5) 230 x earth

size, (6) Covered by 7 alyers of air successively bigger

by 10 times (7) Earth/man=Solar system/earth.

Solar system has neither been measured nor defined in

modern astronomy. But sizes of galaxy, its spiral arm,

universe, or its visible part (tapa loka) are given in vedas.

(9) Particles in world -¹atapatha br¢hma´a (10/4/4/

2. Jagnn¢tha as Puru¾a-7 51

tells that number of lights or stars is same as number of

lomagatta. Loma is hair on skin, its root (gartta) is cell,

so lomagartta is cell or hairs on skin. The same ¹atapatha

(12/3/2/5) gives lomagartta as about 75,000 parts of a

second and tells that lomagarttas number is same in

puru¾a and samvatsara. Units of time are defined as 15

parts at each stage starting from muh¦rta, which is 15

parts of day of 12 hours=48 minutes. Units lower than

muh¦rta (1/15th each time) are-kºipra,etarhi, id¢n¤,

pr¢´a, ana (or aktana), nime¾a, lomagartta, sved¢yana.

Sved¢yana is 11,20,000 parts of a second, light travels

about 270 meters in that time. Rain drops come from

that distance (i.e. retain their form), so it is called sveda

(water drop) ayana (motion).

Notes-(1) Avyakta (abstract) ¢tm¢ and Brahma are one

and same. They are always linked. Sun is ¢tm¢ of world

in the sense that it is middle of cosmic structures and

lower worlds are dependent on its light. As collection of

suns only, galaxy is lighted-

their books on ¡tm¢ and its motion, have described 18

classes of ¢tm¢. This is summarized in-Vedic Concept

of ¡tm¢- by ¹r¤ A.S.Ramnathan, published by Rajsthan

Patrika Prakashan, Jaipur. Here, only brief indication

will be given-

3.Vaiºv¢nara 4.Taijasa

5.Pr¢j®a

There are 5 main levels of transformation of ¢tm¢-

1.Akha´²a (undivided), 2.Par¢tpara (beyond percep-

tion), 3.½o²aº¤ Puru¾a (16 parts), 4.Yaj®a-puru¾a (cre-

ative), 5.Vir¢°a puru¾a (in visible forms).This last form

has two types-£ºvara (universal -God), and J¤va (indi-

vidual). Each has 15 classes shown above.

Undivided rasa (uniform fluid like) Par¢tpara Brahma

has fluctuations within it called Bala (force)> They are in

56 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

three classes of 3 each-

1.Am¨ta-1.¹¢nti (calm)-Sleeping or dormant.

2.T¨pti (satisfaction)-Like dream,rasa and bala equal.

3.Pras¢da (grace)-Awake, bala visible with rasa.

2.Am¨ta-m¨tyu (16 world parts)

1.M¢y¢ (boundary)-base of placement-Puru¾a.

2.Kal¢-(grades)-placement-Root prak¨ti.

3.Gu´a(quality)-point spaces-Divided prak¨ti.

3.M¨tyu-(16 images)-

1.Vik¢ra (deformation)-cause of link-Yaj®a praj¢pati.

2.Anjana (colouring)-Bond-Puranjana-Vir¢° Praj¢pati

3.¡vara´a (cover)-Sleeping-Pura-Viºva Praj¢pati

6 forms in last 2 classes create different stages of trans-

formation, first 3 are beyond perception.

All these 6 bala are called parigraha (encloser).

1.M¢y¢ is of 2 types-m¢tr¢bala (quantity) is of infinte

types. Koºabala is of 16 types causing separation. First

vidy¢ (knowledge of unity) gives salvation. Other 15

give bondage-2.M¢y¢ (forming boundary), 3.J¢y¢-giv-

ing birth, 4.Dh¢r¢-chain of changes, 5.¡p-Mixing in

water-like spread, 6.H¨daya-(Heart-cycle of exchange

in a closed space), 7.Bh¦ti (5 materials for increase-

vitta, paºu, praj¢, gotra, veda), 8.Yaj®a-consumer

(ann¢da) and consumed (anna), 9. S¦tra (thread)-link

between balas, 10.Satya-name and form, 11. Yakºa-

change of form, 12.Abhva-change of formless into form,

13. Moha-Perception of non-existant, 14. Vaya-matter,

its act and quality, 15.Vayon¢dha-limiting in boundary,

16-Vayuna-weaving.

2. Jagnn¢tha as Puru¾a-9 57

2.Kal¢-Grading, classification

3. Gu´a-qualities of 3 types-Satya -in a closed place.

4.Vik¢ra-Deformation-yaj®a-creative process.

5.A®jana-of 3 types-vibh¦ti result of satva gu´a, p¢pm¢-

result of raja gu´a, ¢vara´a-result of tamo gu´a-Vir¢° of

world and individual forms.This is Pura®jana (man liv-

ing in pura or structure).

6.¡vara´a-Each world or individual form has a form (pura)

called its boundary surface. This is viºva-praj¢pati. Meaning

10. Confusion due to many ¢tm¢-There are dif-

fering opinions about re-birth, after life. All are true for

a particular type of ¢tm¢. The physical body merges in

its source-i.e. materials of earth classified into 5

mah¢bh¦tas. The mah¢na and praj®¢na ¢tm¢ together

go to moon at one step each month and complete the

journey in 13 lunar cycles equal to 12 lunar months for

which monthly ºr¢ddha is done. The preta

(pra+itah=gone from here) being the body of lunar

sphere takes 10 days to form (pages 74-75, 198). Simi-

larly, earthly body takes 10 revolutions of moon (273

days) or moon days to form. In general, sarvahuta yaj®a

for creation takes 10 days where day is a suitable cycle

of time. Hans¢tm¢ moves around body in dream, trans-

fer of chitta to other body, or due to deep attachment, it

moves near old place after death also. Mah¢na ¢tm¢ has

give and take relation with previous and subsequent gen-

erations. On surface of moon, they make annual round

of sun for which annual ºr¢ddha is done. The yaj®a

¢tm¢ part crosses the limit of galaxy for which Gay¢

hottest place. Individuality remains till galaxy only, which

remains till kalpa, i.e. day of Brahm¢. Vi¾´u pur¢´a (2/

7/12, 20) tells that souls remain in maharloka till kalpa.

The same thing is expressed in Koran that souls remain

on earth (galaxy also is grand earth) till Quayamat (i.e.

kalpa or creation). Asura civilization was centered around

Varu´a which is energy of galaxy. Sura were centered

around sun which is source of radiation-Indra. Thus,

Asura represented darkness, enveloping light

(Ahi=snake, or V¨tra=circling). Suras represented light

of sun. Radiation of sun, called vajra of Indra destroyed

darkness till 33 aharga´as, 30 around earth. Each higher

zone has 100 times more ¢nanda (original material of

world) than the previous zone (Taittir¤ya Upani¾ad 2/7/

2; 2/8/1-10). Material of galaxy is alcohol, within it

zones of sun are dissolved. Its image is alcohol solution

of medicine which is mother (earth) tincture in homeo

(soma)-pathy. It is diluted 100 times at each level to

increase its power. For 30 dh¢mas of sun, 30 power of

medicine is used. It is related to navel region, which is

image of solar system. Sun centric zones are earth at

200 radius, jupiter (largest planet) at 1000 radius, so

next powers are 200 and 1000. Zone of solid planets is

ocean of curd whose size is in Bh¢gavata Pur¢´a, part

5. Material upto saturn is madhu (glucose) and beyond

that it is fatty substance (¢jya=ghee, clarified butter).

This will give an idea of various processes which may

be referred to separately.

Chapter 3

Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas

1. Incarnation-The word in sansk¨ta is avat¢ra, mean-

ing to descend. Root source is abstract, it is called up.

Its transformations are branches of the tree downwards.

English word is re-incarnation. This is based on the con-

cept that abstract God creates and enters the creation-

VËg¥îQ² dm VXodmZwàm{deV²Ÿ& (V¡{Îmar` Cn.2/6/4) The descending is at 2 levels- there are 5 permanent

structures in space called eternal avat¢ra. There are 10

main avat¢ra in human form which had occured in a

particular time and after doing the job, they departed.

There is a bigger list of 24 avat¢ra also. Bh¢skar¢ch¢rya-

II in his L¤l¢vat¤, text of math has explained this by per-

mutation and combination. Vi¾´u has 4 weapons in his

4 hands. They can be arranged in 24 ways. First weapon

can be placed in 4 ways in any of the 4 hands. Second

weapon can be placed in 3 ways in remaining 3 hands.

Similarly, next 2 weapons can be placed in 2, 1 way.

Thus, they have 4x3x2x1=24 combinations. In human

form with 2 hands, combination can be of 10 types.

One weapon can be selected in 4 ways, 2 weapons in 6

ways-a total of 10 ways.

5 source elements or 5 stages of world tree give rise

to 5 eternal avat¢ra- fish form is 100 bilion galaxies

floating like fishes in free space. The prime form of uni-

verse, galaxy, or solar system are ¢ditya (from which it

started-¢di=start) of 3 types- Aryam¢, Varu´a, Mitra as

stated earlier. The immediate surrounding matter is called

Var¢ha

(boar) which is full of fat. The base of creation is K¦rma

(tortoise shaped structure in which creation occures.

Creative process is called Yaj®a.

2. ¡ditya-¡ditya has been defined in Nirukta (2/13)

of Y¢ska in 4 ways-

(1)Which extracts or takes rasa (juice)-AmXÎmo agmZ²Ÿ&(2)Which takes light or energy of bright stars-AmXÎmo ^mg§Á`mo{VfmZm_²Ÿ&(3) Which receives light from bright nakºatra (constel-

lations)-AmXrámo ^mgo{V dmŸ&(4) Sons of aditi-Sun and other gods have been called

Amºa- also are ¡ditya.

Next para (2/14) of Nirukta gives 7 meanings or syn-

onyms of ¡ditya-

(1)Svah (ñd…)-Svah has 3 derivations (a) Su+ara´a

(gw+AaU)=Which moves ahead easily.

(b)Su+£ra´ah (gw+B©aU:-which thoroughly destroys dark-

ness.

(c) Su+§tah (gw+F$V…)=§ta (field of influence) where light,

gravitational pull etc. are felt.

(2)P¨ºni (n¥píZ)-Pra+aºnate(à+AíZVo dU©:)-Which spreads

colours or touches thoroughly (g§àï>m)(3) N¢ka (ZmH$)-(a) Which takes rasa (ZoVm agmZm_²)(b)Which receives light or collection of stars (ZoVm mgmZm_²).

(c) Dyau (Úm¡=bright sky) is also n¢ka as it removes lack

of sorrow.Ka (H$=gwI)=happiness, Aka (AH$=Xw:I)=lack of

happiness or sorrow.N¢ka-removes (na) aka.

(4) Gau (Jm¡)-Which moves in space and takes rasa there.

It reaches far away from earth, so it is dyau also. Plan-

ets and stars move in it, so it is called gau (=go, in

English).

(5) Vi¾°ap ({dï>n²)-Which injects juices (ag). It is nor-

mally used for tree, which takes juice from earth through

its roots and takes them to its leaves. Current of river

also is vi¾°apa as Trivi¾°ap (Tibet) has three vi¾°apa

(Vi°apa)-Brahma-vi°apa is eastern part from where the

water is drained through Brahmaputra (meaning son of

Brahm¢) river to sea. The land beyond Brahmaputra

river is Brahm¢ (Burm¢), now called My¢mm¢ra

(=mah¢+amara=great among gods i.e. Brahm¢).

Central part around Kail¢ºa mountain (abode of ¹iva) is

¹iva-vi°apa whose water is drained through Gang¢ river

famed to have arisen from hair locks of ¹iva. West part

is Vi¾´u-vi°apa drained through Sindhu river whose

daughter is Lakºm¤ (Vai¾´o-dev¤ shrine). The chain of

creation from Svayambh¦ (whole world) via Parame¾°h¤

(galaxy), Saura (solar system), Ch¢ndra (sphere con-

taining moon orbit), Bh¦ (earth) is called eternal tree

(e.g. G¤t¢ 15/1), which has been calle skambha in

Atharva-veda (10/7). Formless Brahma sees this tree

remaining stand-still-

called dyau also which contain light (divah=lighted) and

pious souls.

(7) Nabha (Z^)-Which carries away juice or light, or

which is collection of constellations (ZoVm ^mgmZm_²,^mgmZm_²,Á`mo{Vfm§ àU`…).Or, it is opposite of Bhana (=which is not

lighted).

3.Scientific concept of ¡ditya-Aditi has been

called all pervading in vedas-

termediate space with light and rare matter), mother

(creative field), father (creative cause), son (created

world), Viºvedeva (all energy fields of galaxy-33 devas

are in solar system only), pa®chajana (5 fold division of

gods, human races etc.). World is created from Aditi

and it is again created from world. Created form is ¡ditya

i.e. son of Aditi.

of previous. Brahma is creator and the whole created

universe-

cycles (yuga=to join). Two time cycle join to form a

yuga. Mun¤ºvara has stated 5 types of yugas in his

Siddh¢nta-s¢rvabhauma-

5 years, 12x 5=60 years, 12x60=720 years,

600x720=Kali era, Kali x10=1 yuga.

Like 7 yojanas, there are 7 yugas-

flow with 7 names. Eternal cycle of motion has 3 navels

(center or focus) in which worlds and cosmic structures

are located. Here yuj of 7 types forms yuga or yojana-

so both are of 7 types.

Creation or yaj®a of different levels are completed in 7

types of yuga-

(1) Sansk¢ra-yuga-Education and improvement are

called sansk¢ra. Their yugas are-

(a) Gopada-yuga-Like 4 feet of Gau (cow), this yuga

has 4 years as its part. Another reason is that it starts

in evening when cows return after grazing, called go-

dh¦li (dust raised by cows) time. Its 4 years are called

kali (start of calculation, 1), dv¢para (second after that),

tret¢ (third), k¨ta (complete 4 years). This is basis of

names of astronomical eras where they start from K¨ta

and end with kali. This yuga is based on Aitareya Br.(7/

13) where Indra instigates Rohita not to return to his

father’s house for being offered to Varu´a. In the pro-

cess, he explains 4 yuga years.

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-7 77

Kali is sleeping, dv¢para is rising, tret¢ is standing, k¨ta

is completed by moving.

Suppose kali starts on 1st January evening 6 PM. This

will be complete on 1st January next year at 12 PM

(Year is of 365 days, 6 hours approx.). So kali has

been called sleeping. Second year will end in 3rd year

2nd January at 6 AM when people will be rising. Thus

dv¢para is rising. Tret¢ will end on 4th year 12 noon

when people (or sun) will be standing, so tret¢ is stand-

ing. K¨ta will end on 2nd January, 6 PM when again

people (and cows) will be returning home. So K¨ta is

moving. Due to leap year, the yuga will end after 4 years

exactly on 1st january. In this system, civil year is of

12x30=360 day, residual 5 days were year ending leave

called p¢®char¢tra. Same tradition is followed in Christ-

mas and Haj. In 4th year, there was ¾a²¢ha (six days)

remainder-a form of yaj®a in Aitareya br¢hma´a.

(b) 5 year yuga-In Y¢ju¾a jyoti¾a 5 year yuga is stated

which started on M¢gha ºukla 1st when sun-moon joined

in that nakºatra (magh¢)-

of the yuga (ñ`mV² VXm Am{X wJ_²), the months of M¢gha, of

(Vedic) tapa, bright fortnight and the period when (if

necessary) the days are abandoned ({XZ§ Ë`O).

The years were named by adding prefixes-sam, pari,

of creation is also kum¢ra=son). Only vatsara or Id-

vatsara is civil year of 360 days.

around sun. Years are named like lunar months-chaitra,

covered 5 hot¢ or years each. Year consumes world, so

it is hot¢. ¡dityas are 12.

So, ¡ditya x 5 hot¢ =12x5=60 years.

(d) 19 years yuga-Prabhakar Holay has explained §k

jyoti¾a with 19 year yuga. The first verse tells that a

yuga has 5 samvatsaras. It does not mean that there are

5 years in a yuga, as samvatsara is only one of the 5

types of years. Thus, in a yuga of 19 years calculated

by §k-jyoti¾a method-there are 5 years of samvatsara

type and 14 years of other 4 types. In y¢ju¾a jyoti¾a

also, in 5x5 years of 5 yugas, there are 6 lost or

suppressed years which again forms 19 year yuga-

(e) Eclipse yuga-Joint motion of sun-r¢hu (node of

moon), completes 1 cycle (called Saros) in 18 years

10.5 days. A solar year has 371 lunar tithi, each has 9

bh¢nºa (parts of sky covered by sun in it). Thus a year

has 9x371=3339 bh¢nºa-

3339 tithi = 111 lunar months (30 tithis in a month)+ 9

tithis =half of Saros cycle of 223 lunar months.

(2) Human yuga-(a)Working life of man is about 60

years in which jupiter (5) and saturn (2) complete revo-

lutions. This is cycle of 60 guru years, called angir¢

period in vedas.

(b) Human life is of 100 years-

of ºatakratu=ºata+kratu=100 yaj®a). ¹akra is name of

Indra-

sun) doer of 100 kratu (cultivation is main yaj®a in

annual cycle).

In 19 year yuga of §k jyoti¾a, moon returns to the

same nakºatra. After 5 yugas of 19x5 years, 5 yugas of

y¢ju¾a jyoti¾a are taken, then moon will be in next

nakºatra. Thus century can be named after nakºatra of

moon at its start. Saptar¾i also move 1 nakºatra in 100

years.

(3) Parivarta yuga-1 divya year or 360 solar years is

period of historic changes. So, this has been called

Parivarta-yuga. In V¢yu-pur¢´a (23/113-218) 28 Vy¢sa

have been counted. First Vy¢sa Brahm¢ is at start of

¹veta-var¢ha-kalpa. 2-5 vy¢sa periods are called 2nd

to 5th dv¢para. Then 6th to 9th, 12-13th, 15th to 28th

are called parivarta periods. 14th is called pary¢ya, 15th

is also named as dv¢para. In period of 24th Vy¢sa §kºa

(V¢lm¤ki), end of yuga has been called kali. V¢yu-pur¢´a

(98/72, 74, 88-92) tells all these periods as parts of

tret¢-Var¢ha-4th, Bali-7th, Datt¢treya-10th, M¢ndh¢t¢-

15th, Paraºur¢ma-19th, R¢ma-24th, Vedavy¢sa-28th.

Also see chapters 70, 86 etc. Brahm¢´²a pur¢´a tells

yuga of 26,000 years at one place and at other place, it

is called manvantara of 71 yugas-71 x360=25,560

It is about 1/3 of precession cycle of earth axis. Line of

earth axis extended north comes close to 3 stars in its

circular path, which become pole-stars by rotation. The

shape of that star-group is like krau®cha (heron) bird.

On earth also, region adjacent to north pole is Kraunch

dv¤pa (Canada, Greenland, Iceland) with broken coast-

line. It started when king Dhruva who went to north

pole after death. After Dhruva years (8100), Skanda

was leading Deva army and broke Krau®ch dv¤pa (both

Pur¢´ic legends). Again after 8100 years, king Yudhi¾°hira

expired in Kali 25 (3076 BC) when Laukika year started

in Kashmir.

Similar period is found by joining two Guru years. In

85 solar years, Guru years are 1 more (86). In south

Indian Pit¢maha system, 60 solar years are Guru cycle.

Both cycles combine in 85 x 60=5100 years. In the year

R¢ma was born, Guru cycle started with Prabhava year

in both S¦rya and Pit¢maha siddh¢nta counts (Vi¾´u

dharmottara pur¢´a 82/7,8). V¢lm¤ki R¢m¢ya´a states

planetary positions at the time of R¢ma birth which was

at 10-47-48 LMT on 11-2-4433 BC. Fish (Matsya) in-

carnation at the time of glacial floods was 5100 years

ago in 9533 BC when both cycles had started together.

This is approximately time of last glacial floods.

(6) Ayana or Historic yuga-As per modern astro-

physics, earth-axis rotates in a conical path making a

circle in 26,000 years. This has been called yuga in

Brahm¢´²a pur¢´a (para 3 page 82). But glacial ice/

flood cycle on earth is due to 2 reasons as per

Milankowitch Theory, 1923 (see The Earth, by A.V..

Byalko, Mir Publication, Moscow,1987)-

84 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

(1) Rotation of apogee of earth orbit in about 100 thou-

sand years. Apogee being the farthest receives least light

and heat of sun.

(2) Rotation of earth axis in opposit direction in 26,000

years. When north pole is away from sun, i.e. sun ray is

perpendicular to southern hemisphere, there is cold in

north part which has major land mass. In the land

surounding north pole, polar glaciers expand and con-

tract in long cycles.

When both effects combine, i.e. when earth is at apo-

gee then north pole also is away from sun, then glacial

winter sets i.e. glaciers expand to lower latitudes. When

north pole/apogee are separate, glacial summer comes

and polar glaciers recede to higher latitudes. Glacial

winters were 11.2, 33.2, 60.1 thousand years ago. Gla-

cial summer or great flood occured in 20.0, 45.5, 69.2

thousand years ago. The cyce of glaciation is in 21,600

years-

1/21600=1/26000 +1/100,000

Middle of the two cycles of 26,000 and 21,600 is taken

as 24,000 years for long term calender. Due to fluctua-

tions in earth rotation, this period matches more closely

with glacial cycles. For this, long period of apogee mo-

tion (estimated recently by NASA of 413,000 years) is

merged with precession, causing faster rotation in In-

dian texts-

1/24000-1/26000=1/412000.

This causes long term correction in cycle of 24,000 years

coming from long past followed by Brahmagupta and

Bh¢skara-II without understanding exact reason. This is

real B¤ja-sansk¢ra (seed-correction) due to error in math-

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-7 85

rection of constants to match with observation-these

also are used commonly in physics. Long term correc-

Bh¢skara is unable to explain the logic and tells that it is

coming from remote past. S¦rya-siddh¢nta,

tripraºn¢dhik¢ra (9,10) mentions 270 oscillation in 1800

years which also amounts to 3600 rotation in 24,000

years. and its correct results are only proof. Yuga of

12,000 divya years is given in all pur¢´as.

This gives first half as utsarpi´¤ (ascending) yuga of

12,000 divya (solar) years in which correction is posi-

tive or yuga parts are in order of kali to satya. The other

half is avasrpi´¤ (descending) starting with Satya and

ending with Kali. Creation started with Satya yuga, so

day of human Brahm¢ starts with descendig cycle. At

present (3102 BC-Vedavy¢sa

Pandit Dinanath Shastri Chulet has determined period

of ¹atapatha Br¢hma´a 54620 BC, Maitraya´¤ upani¾ad

23000 BC and Ved¢¬ga jyoti¾a in 22,022 BC etc-See

Report of Pa®ch¢¬ga Committe in 1931, by Yashavant

Rao Holkar, king of Indore (M.P.) under chairmanship

of Pt. Dinanath Shastri Chulet (pages79-80 in part 1

and pages 171-176, 197 in part 2). His separate book

Veda-k¢la-Nir´aya (Indore,1930) page 238-239 also

gives chart and astronomical/geographical explanation.

In descending cycle, Kali started on 17-2-3102 BC. and

continued upto 1902 BC. Then kali of ascending cycle

re

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-7 87

mained till 702 BC. Dv¢para of 2400 years was till 1699

AD. Then tret¢ of 3600 years started whose sandhy¢

(junction) period of 300 years was till 1999 AD. At junc-

tion of ascending/descending kali , Buddha appeared.

After start of dv¢para, ¹a¬kar¢ch¢rya revived vedas.

Tret¢ is period of yaj®a (production) which is evident

from industrial era in sandhy¢ and information technol-

ogy after that. This is nature of the yugas stated in

Mah¢bh¢rata-

in trat¢ only. After viplava (floods, violence), dv¢para

comes. In kali, all yaj®a and vedas vanish. In tret¢,

veda, yaj®a and society are in order. They decline in

dv¢para with shortening of life.

Glacial periods also match with this era as shown in

chart of yugas.

(7) Astronomical era-Taking divya year of 360 solar

years, jyoti¾¤ya yuga of 12000 divya years=43,20,000

solar years is described in all pur¢´as. It has 3 explana-

tions-

(i) In Bhaga´opapatti (origin of revolution period of

planets) of Siddh¢nta-ºiroma´i, Gol¢dhy¢ya, Bh¢skara-

II has written that yuga is the period in which all planets

complete integral number of revolutions.

(ii)Pandit Madhusudan Ojha in Indra-vijaya (Jodhpur Uni-

88 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

versity, Rajsthan) has written that North pole was ear-

lier at Pamir (Pr¢¬-meru=earlier pole). The cycle of north

south motion of north pole on earth surface is 1 yuga.

Its quadrants are covered in periods called-kali, dv¢para,

tret¢, k¨ta of 1,2,3,4, parts. This is seen as continental

shift.

(iii) Periodic increase/ decrease of earth has been men-

tioned in kalpa or yuga (e.g. Gol¢dhy¢ya, bhuvana

ko¾a,62 in Siddh¢nta-ºiroma´i) is actually shortening

and incease of earth orbit (eccentricity of about 0 in

circular shape to ellipse). (ii, iii) depend on motion of

planets.

8. Yuga-Cycle-SanskaÃra and human yugas are too

small for historic periods, astronomical cycle is too big.

So we take the base of Ayan¢bda yuga for chart of his-

tory. This has been specifically called ayan¢bda yuga-

ÌoVm `wJ_wIo nyd©_mgZ² ñdm`å^wdo@ÝVaoŸ&.... `o d¡ ~«OHw$bm»`mñVw AmgZ² ² ñdm`å^wdo@ÝVaoŸ&H$mboZ ~hþZmVrVm A`ZmãX wJH«$_¡:(dm w nw.31/3,29)Ÿ&Brahm¢ (Sv¢yambhuva Manu) was in initial tret¢-yuga.

Then Braja-kula (group of devas) existed. Long period

has passed as per Ayan¢bda-yuga.

1 day night of human Brahm¢ =12,000 years descend-

ing+12000 ascending. Here, start of day is taken from

descending sequence as the astronomical era in that

sequence. Night has to be in opposite order. As shown

at page 88, this is the third day of Brahm¢ running. This

yuga matches perfectly with saptar¾i and Dhruva eras,

yuga parts of pur¢´as and the modern estimate of gla-

cial years. Important dates are given by planetary posi-

tions also.

90 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

1080 years were completed in 5502-1080 = 4422 BC.

Thus, R¢ma was born in 4433 BC i.e. he was in 24th

tret¢ (V¢yu Pu¢´a,chapters 70,86,98). Datt¢treya was

in 10th tret¢ (ending in18,702 BC), or beginning of

present descending tret¢ (9,102 BC). Paraºur¢ma was in

19th tret¢ i.e. 9th in 2nd cycle = 2x360 years before

5,502 BC. Kollam era starts in 6,177 BC (thousands

years are completed in 824 or 1824 AD ). M¢ndh¢t¢

was in 15th tret¢, i.e.5th part in 2nd tret¢ =9,102- 4x360

=7,662 BC to 7302 BC. 18 generations after M¢ndh¢t¢

was B¢hu who was defeated by yavanas (Brahm¢´²a

pur¢´a 2/3/63/120). As per Megasthenese, it was 6,451

years 3 months before 326 BC July (rains at time of

Porus war), i.e.in April 6,777 BC, i.e.8-900 years after

M¢ndh¢t¢. Then Sagara drove out yavanas (Ionians-

descendants of Anu, son of Yay¢ti).70 generations after

Sagara, B¨hadbala was killed in Mah¢bh¢rata war by

Abhimanyu. Then, for 30 generations, S¦ryava¼ºa

continued till Sumitra ended by Mah¢padma-nanda in

1634 BC. Nanda and his 8 sons (2 generations) ruled

for 100 years.Then 12 Mauryas +10 ¹u¬gas +4 Ka´vas

+ 30 ¡ndhras ruled. After that, during Chandragupta-1

of Gupta era, Alexander attacked in 326 BC. This comes

to 160 generations. Megasthenese tells 153 generations.

Probably 7 generations in between were not kings or

some kings of same generation specially in ¡ndhra

dynasty might have ruled. During this period, there were

2 democracies for 120 years (21 republics of Paraºur¢ma

of about 5-6 years each, 21 times wiping of kºatriyas)

and 300 years M¢lava-Ga´a, starting from ¹¦draka-ºaka

of 756 BC (Yally¢ch¢rya in

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-891

in Jyoti¾a-darpa´a, verse 71) to ¹ri-Har¾a-Vikrama samvat

of 457 BC (Al-Biruni, India). ThisVikrama was second

son of Govindap¢da, guru of ¹a¬kar¢ch¢rya.

Kaºyapa-Among 28 Vy¢sa listed inV¢yu, K¦rma,

Brahm¢´²a pur¢´as, first was Sv¢yambhuva Manu who

was Brahm¢, second Kaºyapa also was Brahm¢, so a lot

of time lapsed between them. 28th Vy¢sa was K¨¾´a-

Dvaip¢yana in Mah¢bh¢rata. In astronomical kalpa,14

Manus come one after another. First half of 7 Manu

periods is like sunrise to noon. In same way, there is

decline in next 7 Manus, so these are called S¢var´i

Manus. In human eras, S¢var´i Manus are cousins ( same

var´a or family) to first 7 Manus and are of same period.

Sv¢rochi¾a was son of ¡Âk¦ti, daughter of Sv¢yambhuva-

Manu. She was married to Ruchi Praj¢pati (father of

Rauchya-Manu). Other 3 were sons of Priyavrata. First

Brahm¢´²a-pur¢´a (3/4/1/23,24),V¢yu-pur¢´a (4/

100,58/30) give similar story. Last two S¢var´i Manus

came after Ch¢kºu¾a who was grandson of Dhruva

(Hariva¼ºa-pur¢´a 2/15). Period of Kaºyapa (Brahma-

S¢var´i) covers 5 generations from Ch¢kºu¾a to P¨thu.

In-between V¨, A¬ga,Vena, appeared.

Sv¢yambhuva------------Ch¢kºu¾a------------Vaivasvata

40 generations 12 generations

52 generations (incomplete list) = 15,120 years.

Thus,1 generation =15,120/52 = 290 years.

Ch¢kºu¾a =29,102(Sv¢mbhuva)-40 x 290 =17,500 B.C.

P¨thu =17,500-5x290=16,050 B.C.

Thus, Kaºyapa period is 17,500 to 16,050 B.C.

Then, upto 11th Vy¢sa §¾abha, 2 parivarta periods

can be given due to their importance. In period of 6th

Vy¢sa Vavasvata-Yama, 4 parivarta are assumed due to

glacial floods. Remaining Vy¢sa are given 1 parivarta of

360 years each. Thus,28 Vy¢sas are (see -nwamUm| _|

9.Buddha and his birth- Like 24 Vi¾´u incarnations,

there are 24 Jaina T¤rtha¬karas and 28 Buddhas. But

except Gautama Buddha (9th among 10 Vi¾´u incarna-

tions) and last T¤rtha¬kara Mah¢v¤ra, all others were

denied by Oxford scheme in 1831 to destroy Indian cul-

ture and orientalists are still guided by them.Thus, start

of Jaina and Bauddha thoughts is considered to be from

Mah¢v¤ra and Siddh¢rtha, time of both being shifted later

by about 1300 years, thereby destroying framework of

Indian history.

Concept of Jagann¢tha is Puru¾a or conscious being.

Buddha is related to buddhi. Jaina is related to 24 ele-

ments of Prak¨ti. Jaina and Bauddha sects deny the

existence of Puru¾a, rather do not depend on it, so they

are called n¢stika (na=not, asti=existance, ka=follower).

Puru¾a element of 5x5 elements of s¢¬khya are denied

in it. Since puru¾a has no classification or description,

these theories remain approximation of s¢¬khya. Jaina

thought has 7 fold logic-1 more than 6 darºana of Vedas,

double the number 12 of anga and up¢nga compared to

6 of veda. Like 4 p¢da of Puru¾a, there are 4 sreams of

Bauddha thought-M¢dhyamika, VijnÆ¢n¢sti, Yog¢ch¢ra,

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-995

Vaibh¢¾ika.Two m¤m¢ns¢ are joined in vaibh¢¾ika.

Vaºe¾ika is similar to m¢dhyamika. Vij¬an¢sti is com-

bination of verbal logic and s¢n•khya. Yog¢ch¢ra is same

as yoga-darºana. Another grading can be-

1.Puru¾a-Jagann¢tha, ¢stika, veda.

2.Buddhi-Buddha

3.Prak¨ti-Jaina

4.Mana removed from prak¨ti-Ch¢rv¢ka

Buddhi is an element of prak¨ti, this is higher than mana.

This is compared to a ratha (chariot)-

Owner of ratha=Puru¾a-Veda

¡stika view starts from top-uniform, abstract field

called rasa. That is Brahma. Various stages of creation

are its vivartta (transformation)

N¢stika view starts from physical world. Ch¢rv¢ka stops

before mind. Mind, organs and their interaction is de-

scribed

96 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

in Jaina view. Buddhi (intellect) is basis of Bauddha

view. Buddhi is controller of mind and other organs

and by its successive develoment, one can improve him-

self and the world. In Jaina system, buddhi, mind, or-

gans-all are parts of prak¨ti-their various collections

(pudgala) explain the world.

Since these views are complementary (some feel con-

tradictory), they always existed.There are 4 levels of

development of buddhi , like 4 Puru¾a or K¢la-

¹r¢vaka (aspirant)-common individual

Bodhisattva-Developing stage

Pratyeka Buddha-Developed stage of individuals, in-

carnations of Buddha.

Samyak Buddha-Highest state of Buddha realized for

brief moment.

Samyaka Buddha is a unique state, and there can be

only one such Buddha. Pratyeka Buddha is its visible

human form. For 7 lokas, 24 Prak¨ti, or 28 defects of

buddhi in sankhya, there are 7, 24, or 28 Buddhas. List

of 28 human Buddhas is given in Mah¢va¼ºa, who ap-

peared in different places and times.

28 defects or weaknesses (aºakti) of buddhi (S¢¬khya-

Tattva-Sam¢sa 13,or, S¢¬khya-S¦tra 3/38, S¢¬khya-

K¢rik¢ 49 ) can be explained in 3 ways-

(a)S ¢¬khya K¢rik¢ divides it into 3 parts-11 weak-

nesses of 11 organs (5 sense organs, 5 organs of action,

mana)+9 obstructions to satisfaction (tu¾°i-viparyaya)+8

obstructions

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-997

to siddhi (powers).

(b) There are 52 points of ºakti in human body as per

tantra. This corresponds to 52 letters in siddha-order of

letters (49 of Devan¢gar¤ -form from a to h,+kºa, tra,

j®a for kºetraj®a- puru¾a), or 52 p¤°ha (centres) of ºakti

worship. These are images of Goloka or K¦rma which

creates galaxy and is 10 times larger. Its size is 52

aharga´a or 2 52-3 times earth-size. Out of these 52

points of ºakti, 24 are purely material for 24 elements of

prak¨ti. Remaining 28 ºaktis are forms of Buddha.

(c)S¢¬khya is 5 dimensional material space which is

measured by 5 basic units of physics (5 tanm¢tr¢). In

surface description, it has 5x5=25 elements. Taking mind

as 6th dimension, ¹aiva-darºana has 6x6=36 elements.

Extra 36-25=11 are rudras. These are 4 combinations

of ¹iva and ¹akti and 7 forms of m¢y¢ (covering power)

and its 6 covers. Any indivisual object can be arranged

in 17 patterns to cover a plane. (plane-crystellography

theorem of modern algebra), so 17 is called puru¾a or

cloud (which covers like plane sheet, synonyms are

ghana, ambara, megha etc.). Thus, there ar 11 rudras

( 1 ) Ma®juºr¤ Buddha was in China. He wasBrahm¢ or F¢n and sourse of all wisdom. Hewas on of 7 BrahmaÃs. He may beSv¢yambhuva Manu in 29,102 B.C. or aboutthat period.

(2) Kaºyapa is also Buddha and his period is about

17,500 B.C. He was in north-west part of India, at

central point of Deva (India+China+Russia), Asura (Af-

rica, west coast of Asia, Americas) and Daitya-D¢nava

(Deutsh=Dutch-German, Danube river zone in east Eu-

rope). Caspian sea is named after him. Kaºyapa view

was popular at time of Gautama Buddha also. (PuÃra´a

Kaºyapa at Kas¢pa in Rohtas district of Bihar).

(3)Amitabha Buddha also was in China at the time of

R¢ma (4,433 B.C.). His teachings to R¢va´a, king of

La¬k¢ are called La¬k¢vat¢ra-s¦tra. Vasi¾°ha had gone

to him as ordered by Mah¢m¢y¢ to obtain knowledge.

Yoga-V¢si¾°ha-R¢m¢ya´a calls him K¢ka-Bhuºu´²i at

north -east of Meru (Pamir) which is China only (Nirv¢´a

kha´²a, first half, chapters 14-17). His visit to Buddha

is described in commentary on Lalit¢-S¢hasram by

Som¢nanda in expla-

nation to name Sadgatiprad¢ (verse 103, name 201) pub-

lished by P¤t¢mbar¢-Pi°ha, Datia (Madhya Pradesh). View

of this Buddha is described in V¢lm¤ki-R¢m¢ya´a,

Ayodhy¢-k¢´²a, chapters 108-109 by J¢b¢li and refuted

by ºr¤ R¢ma. Here, Bauddha-Jaina-Ch¢rv¢ka are placed

in same anti-vaidika category. Buddha, Budha,

Tath¢gata, ¹akyatama (¹¢kya) all are mentioned in verse

(109/34)

(4) Sumedh¢ Buddha-He was in the time of Paraºur¢ma

(6,177 B.C.death). He lived in Mahendragiri (hills of

Phulbani, Ganjam in Orissa), where a district and its

headquarter on south bank of Mah¢nad¤ is still called

Baudha. Mahendragiri was old place for tapa. When

Paraºur¢ma (or, one in his line of disciples) handed over

his bow or mantle of incarnation to R¢ma after ¹iva-

dhanu was broken by him, he came to Mahendragiri

for tapa. Story of this Sumedh¢ is written in Tripur¢-

Rahasya. He is also the sage who preached Durg¢-

saptaºat¤ in M¢rka´²eya-pur¢´a. Ten mah¢-vidy¢ are

10 prajn Æ¢-p¢ramit¢ taught by Sumedh¢-Buddha.

Sumedh¢ Buddha is mentioned in (Vm{ÝÌH$ gmYZm Am¡a {gÕmÝV-JmonrZmW H${damO-{~hma amîQ´>^mfm n[afX²,nQ>Zm-4 )Ÿ page 18 as

author of Tripur¢-rahasya. In (~m¡Õ Y_© Xe©Z-AmMm © ZaoÝÐ Xod-_moVrbmb ~ZmagrXmg,{X„r-7 Ÿ) at pages 180-182, his descrip-

tion is given. He is ¨¾i of Durg¢-saptaºat¤ also in

Marka´²eya-pur¢´a.

(5) ¹¢kyasi¼ha Buddha -This Buddha was just be-

fore Mah¢bh¢rata war and has visited Nepal as per

chronology of Nepal kings. He visited during reign of

Jited¢sti, who was killed in Mah¢bh¢rata war on side of

P¢´²ava.

100 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Father of Jited¢sti was Humati who went to forest with

P¢´²avas. Visit of ¹¢kyasi¼ha-Buddha to Nepal is de-

scribed in Nepal list of kings. See-Indian History &

Culture, by BHISMA Bombay, vol.-4, page 299. His story

is in Mah¢bh¢rata (Vanaparva, Kair¢ta parva, chapters

38-41) and Kir¢t¢rjun¤yam epic. Siddh¢rtha Buddha

was called ¹¢kyamuni, not ¹¢kyasi¼ha; although

Amarako¾a has listed ¹¢kyasi¼ha also as a name of

Buddha. This is earlier than Siddh¢rtha and may be from

some other ¹¢kya (Sal forest area) family. Forefather of

Siddh¢rtha Buddha was B¨hadbala who fought

Mah¢bh¢rata war on Kaurava-side and was killed by

Abhimanyu. Mah¢bh¢rata, ¹¢ntiparva, chapters 307-308

describe teaching of this Buddha in detail (teaching of

Vasi¾°ha to Kar¢lajanaka). This gives 4 categories of

Buddha-stage--Abuddha, apratibuddha, budhyam¢na,

and ºuddha (or viºuddha) buddha. Teaching of º¤la in

chapter 124 by Prahl¢da to Indra is based on Kaºyapa

Buddha, who was guru of deva, asura both.

(6) Kali-Buddhas before SiddhaÃrtha-Th¦pa (st¦pa)-

va¼ºa tells about St¦pa (mounds) of Krakucchanda,

Kanakamuni and Kaºyapa (2nd) Buddhas. Fa-hien (5th

century A.D.), Chinese traveller tells about p¤°ha where

4 Buddhas (these 3 and Siddh¢rtha) had sat--at Champ¢

(Bh¢galpur in Bihar), S¢ket (Ayodhy¢). Krakucchanda

Buddha was born 100 Kms. south-west of ¹r¢vast¤ and

Kanakamuni was born 8 Kms. north of ¹r¢vast¤ as per

Fa-hien. Kaºyapa-Buddha (2nd) was in Tu-vi-yi

(¯a´²av¢) village 15 Kms. west of ¹r¢vast¤. Nigalihva

inscription

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-9101

(near S¢ran¢th) by Ashoka tells that in 14th year of his

rule, he doubled the size of st¦pa of Ko´agamana

(Kanakamuni)-Buddha and again worshipped it in 20th

year of his rule. (See- {~hma Am¡a ~m¡Õ Y_©-hdbXma {ÌnmR>r göX`-{~hma amîQ>^mfm n[afX², nQ>Zm Ÿ). Also see-Ami°a K¢la Rekh¢-

by sri Parameshwar Nath Mishra, Kolkata.

(7) Siddh¢rtha Gautama Buddha-He was born as

Siddh¢rtha, son of ¹uddhodana and was 25th in line

from Ikºv¢ku king B¨hadbala. His period was 1885-

1805 B.C. He was called Gautama due to two reasons.

This family was follower of Gautama or Gautama sage

extended the family line. After Siddh¢rtha, main thrust

was on verbal logic propounded by Ny¢ya-s¦tra of

Gautama. (Siddh¢rtha-Buddha is given in several texts

on basis of pur¢´as-Indian History & Culture,by BHISMA,

Bombay,vol.-1, pages 374-375, vol-4, pages 96-97. Time

of Buddha-by Sri Ram Sa°he, Hyderabad etc. See {~hmaAm¡a ~m¡Õ Y_©, pages 26-27 quote Mah¢bh¢rata, Sabh¢-parva

(21/1-10) about Gautama line of kings.)

(8) Lokadh¢tu Buddha-Lokadh¢tu Buddha was in

Kashmir who brought 48th Gonanda king Ashok (1448-

1400B.C.) under Bauddha influence due to which his

kingdom was captured by Bauddhas of central Asia.

Based on this verse of R¢jatara¬gi´¤ (1/101-102),

Hultzch, Govt. epigraphist at Madras (now Chennai)

declared that Maurya Ashoka embraced Buddhism due

to which Maurya empire disintegrated. Ashok was not

Buddhist, nor Kharavel was Jaina (he performed

R¢jas¦ya Yaj¬a, kept titles of Indra).

102 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Maurya empire also did not disintegrate -India remained

united under Mauryas for 218 years after death of

Ashoka, 300 years under 10 ¹u¬ga kings, 85 years

under 4 Ka´va kings. Lokadh¢tu Buddhas started in

Kashmir in 1655 B.C., 150 years after death

ofSiddh¢rtha. There was one Lokadh¢tu Buddha at time

of 51st Gonanda king Kani¾ka of Kashmir also (1264-

1234B.C.). There are 3 Lokadh¢tus. (BHISMA history,

vol-3, pages 97-98,199-200.)

(9) Maitreya Buddha (BHISMA history, vol.-3, page

97) -Maitreya Buddha was born 300 years after nirv¢´a

of Siddh¢rtha Buddha (1505 B.C.) as per Fa-hien. He

preached M¢dhyamika branch which was explained by

N¢g¢rjuna. Maitreya (=field of sun) was born in Dh¢nya-

ka°aka near Amar¢vat¤ (in Mah¢r¢¾°ra, at 21O latitude).

This is image of Indra or Sahsr¢kºa (1,000 diameters of

sun which is akºa or eye). Measured in terms of earth-

size, it is (earth x 2 21-3 ) or at 21st aharga´a. In Orissa

also places of Indra at this latitude of 21o are Bu²h¢r¢j¢

(B¨ddhaºrav¢) in Sambalpur or ¡kha´²alama´i

(¡kha´²ala=Indra) near Bhadraka. Both these place,

specially, Bhadraka is region of dh¢nya (paddy). Dh¢nya-

ka°aka should be Dh¢na-ma´²ala (also ¡li, Salipur ,

Chauliaganja-all meaning dh¢nya), and Cuttack town.

(10) D¤pa¬kara Buddha - He was in time of Sumedh¢

Buddha and taught vajray¢na (methods of yoga).Vajra-

yoga had ben started by king Suchandra. Bauddha-

tantra was propagated by Hevajra. His tradition was con-

tinued by Padma (Saroruha), Vajra, ¡nanda-Vajra, and

Ana¬ga-vajra

whose disciple was Indrabh¦ti, king of Orissa. His sister

Lakºm¤¬kar¢ spread his teaching still popular as Baul in

Bengal. His son Padmasambhava started L¢m¢ tradi-

tion in Tibet.(page 263 of Vm{ÝÌH$ gmYZm Am¡a {gÕmÝV-JmonrZmWH${damO-{~hma amîQ>^mfm n[afX², nQ>Zm-4 , pages 148, 173, 181,

(11)Vi¾´u Buddha- Siddhartha, son of ¹uddhodana

was form of M¢y¢-moha, not of Vi¾´u. He was born on

Buddha-PuÃr´im¢ (in Vaiº¢kha month) in Kapilavastu.

Vi¾´u incarnation Buddha was born as son of Brahma´a

Aj¢na in Magadha on Pu¾ya ºukla 7th. In his period,

there was ¹¢kambhar¤ incarnation of Durg¢ with whose

blessing Ch¢ham¢na destroyed Nineve, capital of Assyria

in 612 B.C. From that period, ºaka used byVar¢hamihira

in B¨hat-sa¼hit¢ (13/3) started. This was result of uni-

fication of 4 Agnikula (Parm¢ra,

Pratih¢ra,Ch¢lukya,Ch¢ham¢na) in 725 B.C. (M¢lava-

ga´a-sa¼vat), started by efforts of S¦draka, of M¢lav¢

(coronation in 756 B.C.-¹¦draka ºaka). In east, ¹¦draka

was helped by earlier Kharavel of Orissa (834 B.C.). He

is described in Bhavi¾ya-pur¢´a, pratisarga (4/12/27)-

(12) Other Buddhas--Buddha himself has stated

that teachings of 3 Budhas-Kanakamuni, Krakuchhanda

and Kaºyapa remained because they codified their teach-

ings. Views of other Buddhas of immediate past van-

ished in

absence of written literature-Vipaºy¤, ¹ikh¤, Viºvabh¦.

(see pages 2-6 in-A{_Q> H$mbaoIm-na_oídaZmW {_l)

11. Vi¾´u-incarnations-The incarnations of Vi¾´u

are started with 1.Matsya, 2. K¦rma, 3. Var¢ha, 4.

Narasimha, 5.V¢mana, 6.Paraºur¢ma, 7. R¢ma,

8.K¨¾´a, 9. Buddha, 10. Kalki (yet to occur) . This

apeears to be in cosmological order of fish (group of

galaxies), K¦rma (Base of galaxy), Var¢ha (of earth),

and then in historic order. Many persons have

interprated in order of evolution of more complex life

forms-fish (of water), tortoise (water, and earth), boar

(land and water logged), Narasimha (between animal

and man), V¢mana (dwarf), and then full men. Possibly

both logics might have worked. However, these incar-

nations were started after Kaºyapa. First, the earth was

under dominence of Asura kings mainly in Americas

and occupying Africa. It started with Boar incarnation.

This was a human form. Zenda Avesta tells that Boar

was worshipped by Asuras, so Vi¾´u and his men en-

tered through river (Amazon) disguised as boar to gain

trust of Asuras. But they were betrayed and Hira´y¢kºa

was killed. Soon, he was replaced by his equally power-

ful brother Hira´yakaºipu. Probably, the Devas had up-

per hand for a while as he had to do penance for some

period. Hira´yakaºipu was propagating that as most pow-

erful king, he was god, not Vi¾´u. This tradition contin-

ues in religions of west Asia where loyalty to a single

prophet is main thing. Though they all claim one god,

there is constant struggle to convert from other gods.

Deva philosophy, sees

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-11105

unity in all diverse forms. However, during penance of

Hira´yakaºipu, his son Prahl¢da (Libye in Greek-a coun-

try in north Africa) believed in unity of thought.

Hira´yakaºipu was killed by Narasimha, i.e. lion among

men, not a semi animal. He is projected as Sphinx in

Egypt, a lion with human face. But In India, he is shown

as man with lion face. V¢mana was of young age and so

small, not a dwarf. By a trick of two meaning of step, he

captured 3 steps of sun-step from equator to tropic of

cancer in north. Its three steps enter polar region, head

of earth. Morally, and partly strategically King Bali ap-

pears to be cornered and as face saving, he had to give

supremacy to Indra. Real dominace of Devas started

from that day (Bh¢dra 12th of bright half). So, tenure of

kings are counted from that day. Orissa, being the land

of Jagann¢tha, still follows the tradition. Periods of kings

of Orissa, now the titular descendant at Puri, is counted

from that day only. Thus, this is zero from where count-

ing Anka (number) starts-this day is Sunia (¹¦nya=0).

Then after the period of Vaivasvata Manu, glacial floods

came which was the time of Fish incarnation. This story

is famous in legends all over the world. The birth of

Matsya was in 9533 BC when Prabhava Jovian year

started in both systems. Citing Iliad of Homer, Herodotus

gives the time of sinkng of last island of Atlantis

(Atal¢ntaka of Pur¢´as, present Atlantic ocean) in 9564

BC. Both tally with estimates of glacial floods.

Paraºur¢ma was in 6,177 BC after his 21 republics for

120 years. He was 15 generations after attack of Baccus

in 6777 BC in which king B¢hu was killed. His son

106 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Sagara expelled yavanas from west Bh¢rata i.e. Arabia,

where unani medicine is still popular. Herodotus also

tells that Ionians had come later on to Greece. Periods

of others

--R¢ma, K¨¾´a, Siddh¢rtha Buddha and Vi¾´u Buddha

have been given earlier. Period of Kalki is unknown

though his birthday is celebrated as per Pur¢´as.

12. Time of Avat¢ras-Start of Vi¾´u avat¢ras are

linked with wars between Asura and Devas. For 10 yugas

(3600 years) Asura were supreme, then there were 12

wars for 10 yugas. Last war was won by Raji, brother of

5th king from Soma i.e. about 8,200 BC. Thus 12 wars

were from 11,800 BC and Asura supremacy was from

15,400 BC, Ch¢kºu¾a period, in 4th yuga satya of as-

cending cycle (18,702-13,902 BC).

Then in 19th tret¢, son of Jamadagni (Paraºur¢ma) was

6th who eliminated all kºatriyas (destroyed monarchies

and brought democracy). Then, the 7th incarnation

R¢ma was born to Daºratha with Viºv¢mitra. With

Vasi¾°ha as his priest, he killed R¢va´a.

Accordingly, chart of 12 wars between deva-asura are-

1. Var¢ha-Killed Hir´y¢kºa from sea. As per Avest¢,

he entered like snake in Amazon river in ras¢tala and

took the form (mask) of boar which was respected by

asuras.

2. Narasinha-Killed Hira´yakaºipu.

3.V¢mana-He is specifically called Vi¾´u and youngest

brother of Indra (Upendra). He was 3rd and last incar-

nation among deva tribe-other 3 were among manu tribe

of India. He vanquished Asuras and made Indra lord of

3 lokas-Russia(+Siberia), China and India. Till today Chi-

nese call themselves as middle kingdom. Dil¤pa and

Pururav¢ have been called lord of middle loka also by

K¢lid¢sa in Raghuvanºa (2/16) and Vikramorvaº¤yam-

1st scene-Menak¢). He was in 4th yuga (satya ) of as-

cending cycle just before Vaivasvata Manu. Immediately

after him, yaj®a of devas started. As Vi¾´u, he was the

last deva and first as Jagann¢tha to be placed in Pur¤.

His victory day (Bh¢dra bright 12th) is still taken as

zero time (¹¦nya) for start of count of year number

(a¬ka) of kings.

4.K¦rma- Samudramanthana-Earth crust is samudra

(ocean) and mining at selected places is its churning. In

staed of fight, K¦rma advised deva-asuras to co-oper-

ate in mining the resources of earth. Asuras appear to

be experts in going deep into the earth. They took the

3. Incarnations of Jagann¢tha and Buddhas-12109

head of V¢suki, i.e. head of mines-pit. The mining was

centred at tortoise shaped plateau from Bilaspur to

Ghatshila in south Chhotangpur. Its top is Mandar hill

in Bhagalpur. Centre of iron ore region is Mur¢ town,

now shifted to Burla police station in Sambalpur after

submerging in Hirakud reservoir due to dam over

Mahandi river. Mu´²aka branch of Atharva-veda and

Mu´²a brahmans are in that area. Later on, Mauryas

from that place ruled India 1600 years after birth of

Par¤kºita. Workers in iron mine were Mu´²¢, in copper

mine were Khalko (Khalkos=copper in Greek, copper

ore is called Chalco-pyrite), Separation of ore is by Minz

(like m¤na=fish), survey by Hansad¢ (like swan), mark-

ing on map was by Kerketta (Karka°a is compass). His

people are KhamaÃri (Kham¢ra=store place of grain). It

is kamm¢ in Telugu and Khmer in Kambodia. K¦rm¢chala

(Kumaon in Uttaranchal) and Kurm¤ caste in north In-

dia are the kºatriyas who renonced war for production.

Devas apeear to be experts in extracting minute

quantityof metal. They went to Zimbabwe for gold ex-

traction (JaÃmb¦nada gold, south of Ketum¢la), and

Mexico (m¢ksÃika=silver)

5. T¢rk¢maya-T¢raka and Maya were killed by Skanda,

who was incarnation (skanda=fallen or separated) of

Vi¾´u. He was born in K¨ttik¢ star or period, so called

K¢rttikeya.

In his period, Abhijit (Vega) fell from pole position

(16,400 BC) and time count started from Dhani¾°h¢ (as

in §k jyoti¾a). After 19 year yuga of this calender, nava-

kalevara (new body or cloth) of Jagann¢tha is held.

7th day of M¢gha bright half, the person (man or woman)

doing ratha-y¢tr¢ in this path gets infinite pu´ya.

Thus, the ratha-y¢tr¢ started as victory celebration of

K¢rttikeya. After, vedic calender from M¢gha month,

Ratha-y¢tr¢ started at start of south motion of sun.

K¢rttikeya had set up 6 P¤°has like 4 of ¹ankar¢ch¢rya

and of tantra. Its names as mothers of K¢rttikeya are

given in Taittir¤ya Samhit¢ (4/4/5/10) and Taittir¤ya

Br¢hma´a (3/1/4/4)-Dul¢, Nitatni, Abhrayant¤,

Meghayant¤, Var¾ayant¤, Chupu´¤k¢. Amb¢ is named in

beginning. Near the place of victory tower at Ko´¢rka,

temples of Dul¢ are located at Cuttack, Bhubaneshwar

etc. His real mother was Bahul¢ as he is called B¢huleya.

She might be sister of mother of V¢mana (Jagann¢tha)-

Gu´²ich¢ from whom return ratha starts called Bahul¢.

After victory, Skanda was not made head of state,

Ga´a-pati (head of democracy) was made first wor-

shipped, i.e. first as head of state. So KaÃrttikeya went to

South India and started Tamil by changing meanings of

50 out of 2000 root verbs of Sanskrita. Here, Pattamundai

appears to be place of KaÃrttikeya, whch means 3 heads.

In Tamiln¢du also, this is birthplace of swami ¹iv¢nanda.

That may be incidental, but mu´²a means 3 in Tamil.

Worship of K¢rttikeya is very popular in Orissa as Kumar

P¦r´im¢.

captured towns of Brahm¢, Vi¾´u, and ¹iva ( Brahmapur,

Puri, Bhubaneswar). His man was Ba´a here at

B¢´apura. To destroy the asura enclaves, ¹iva went to

mount of ¹r¤-¹r¤shaila south of Hyderabad and from

there, he fired missiles. After destroying them, they fell

at J¢leºwara (northeast of Orissa) forming a j¢la (net) of

arrows.(Skanda-pur¢´a, Avanti, sub part Rev¢, chap 26-

i.e.5/3/26). Modern missile testing centre also is lo-

History and geography1. Location in Pur¤-Jagann¢tha is lord of world, then

why is Pur¤ his preferred place? There are 4 reasons for

that-

(1) Firstly, why Jagann¢tha is located in India? India

was earlier called Ajan¢bha-var¾a, i.e. centre of world.

Aja=Self-born or non-born, n¢bhi=navel, centre. This

has been explaind by Huensang, the Chinese traveller

visiting India in 642 AD. He has stated that India is

called Indu (moon) due to 3 reasons-(a) As seen form

north, the Him¢laya in semi-circular arc like crescent

moon is seen. (b) Him¢laya is also cool like moon. (c)

India has been giving light of knowledge to world like

moon gives light to world on setting of sun. He has also

stated that the Greek are unable to pronounce it cor-

rectly and call it Inde. This is origin of the word India.

Thus, Jagann¢tha has to remain in heart of world, i.e.

India. Shape of India has become the symbol of heart

(in game of cards) and love sign also. As seen from

south sea, India is a triangle with vertex down wards.

Reverse triangle is called ¹akti (feminine) triko´a (tri-

angle). India is main part of 9 parts of Bh¢rata-var¾a

from sea to Him¢laya and from Arab to Vietnam and

Indonesia. This Pur¢´ic view is summarized by K¢lid¢sa

in Kum¢ra-sambhava opening verse, that Him¢laya is

taken as touching sea to east and west. India is defined

as north of sea and south of that Him¢laya. It is also

centre of civilization whose conduct was taken as stan-

dard. These are described

Joining reverse triangle with crescent at top, we get

shape of heart, i.e. India. Pur¤ is centre of India from

Arab to Vietnam and from sea to Him¢laya. Thus the

king Indradyumna who set up Jagann¢tha idol here, has

been called king of central India.

(2) Image of Cosmic wheel- Ratha, or more properly

the wheel of sun is upto 1000 diameter, i.e. up to saturn

orbit. in exponential scale, it is 17 times doubling of

earth size. Counting 3 zones within earth, it is 20

aharga´a. Its image on earth will be at 200 north lati-

tude. As India is standard of conduct, its east coast

(Udayagiri-place of rising sun) is palce of sun and at 200

north latitude, ratha y¢tr¢ is celebrated.

(3) Bh¢rata and Pur¤- Bhara´a is production and p¦ra´a

is supply to fill the need. India had been centre of food

prodction, while asuras concentrated on looting. From

here, the supply of food was through port of Orissa. As

rice was sent from U²ra, it was called a²r¤ya or Oryza

in Greek.

116 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Oryza has become rice. Even now, names around cen-

tral Orissa are named after rice-Chauliaganja,

Dhanmandal, Salepur, Ali etc. Cuttack itself was called

Dh¢nyakataka in Bauddha literature. This is given in

vedas at many places-

That sage with matted hairs disappeared after telling the

story. As wished by king, his priest went with his younger

brother Vidy¢pati to search for M¢dhava. Vidy¢pati

reached the big forest in ¹aradv¤pa on Mah¢nad¤ river

bank. ¹abara king Viºv¢vasu received Vidy¢pati and

assured him to show M¢dhava next morning. Vidy¢pati

did not touch food or water before seeing the lord. See-

ing eagerness of Vidy¢pati, the ¹abara king got him

bathed in Rohi´¤-ku´²a and seated under kalpa tree

(bunyan), then showed him N¤lam¢dhava being wor-

shipped by devas. Then Vidy¢pati returned to Avanti,

the capital. Vi¾´u and Brahm¢ sent N¢rada to king

Indradyumna who set out with prince, priest, Vidy¢pati

and followers near N¤lam¢dhava. King G¢lava of Viraja

on Vaitara´¤ bank had established the idol of

right. In the middle was Subhadr¢. King Indradyumna

was immensely pleased.

The worship of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha sarted after 5th deva-

asura war by Indradyumna was disturbed many times.

In middle ages, it was disturbed by Bauddha influence

and it was underground. ¹ankar¢ch¢rya placed wooden

idols on Vaiº¢kha ºukla 10th in Yudhi¾°hira ºaka 2655

(483 BC). Padmap¢da was the first ¢ch¢rya (pontiff)

Bodhisattvas were harassing public here to stop wor-

ship by vedic methods. When ¹ankar¢ch¢rya challenged

them for discussion, they ran away to Nepal where king

V¨¾deva-varman (547-486 BC) forced them to enter into

dialogue with ¹ankara. They were defeated and accepted

vedic path. Nepal King also helped to reconstruct

Jagann¢tha temple due to which he was given right to

worship Jagann¢tha as a king, which continues till to-

day. On taking charge as king of Nepal, each king comes

to worship Jagann¢tha. Due to grace of ¹ankara, Nepal

king was blessed with a son who was named ¹ankara-

varman (486-461 BC), in honour of ¹ankar¢ch¢rya.

All the kings of India, specially those controlling Orissa

have been worshipping lord Jagann¢tha with ratha-y¢tr¢.

Huensang has described the grand ratha-y¢tr¢ of king

Har¾avardhana of Kannauja in 643 AD which was a

function, which was repeated after many years. From

ephemeris of S Kannu Pillai, it is seen that as per ¡rya

Siddah¢nta year of Nava-kalevara (only festival to be

repeated after many years) was in 635 (21st June) and

643 AD (23rd June) as per ¡rya-siddh¢nta. As per S¦rya-

siddh¢nta, followed by Br¢hma-sphu°a-siddh¢nta of

Brahmagupta in 628 AD, it will be in 637 and 642 AD.

In Moghul period also, King Ramsingh of Jaipur, Rajsthan

was doing Rathay¢tr¢ in 18th century. Even in Orissa,

kings of Mayurabhanja and Parlakhemundi were orga-

nizing the y¢tr¢, though the proper place is Pur¤ only.

4. Nava-kalevara-When it is leap month in ¡¾¢²ha,

then the three god forms of Jagann¢tha, Balabhadra,

Subhadr¢ take new body, i.e. nava-kalevara. When in

K¢rtikeya period, after fall of Abhijit from north pole

position, year started from Dhani¾°h¢, it was from start

of rains in c.16,000 BC. Later on, start of year was no

longer in rains, then it was adjusted to ¡¾¢²ha month

when rains started at start of Vikrama era in 57 BC. It

might have been in other months at Matsya birth (9533

BC), beginning of Ikºv¢ku rule (8576 BC), Paraºur¢ma

(6297 BC), R¢ma

126 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

(4433 BC), or Kali era (3102 BC) which have no record.

Main idea is that it indicates the start of yuga of §k

jyoti¾a of 19 years. In each yuga God takes new forms-

n[aÌmUm` gmYyZm§ {dZmem` M XwîH¥$Vm_²Ÿ&Y_©g§ñWmnZmWm©` gå^dm{_ `wJo `wJo(JrVm 4/8)I.e. God appears in each yuga to protect the good, de-

stroy the evil and establish dharma.

Sometimes, Nava-kalevara is after 8 or 12 years also.

In that year when there will be extra or inter-calary month

in ¡¾¢²ha, the physical forms of 3 devas are in position

to re-surrect from Jye¾°ha p¦r´im¢ (full moon) to ¡¾¢²ha

am¢v¢sy¢. On next day at new moon of ¡¾¢²ha new

youth of the 3 is seen by public. In midnight of ¡¾¢²ha

k¨¾´a 14th, Dait¢pati ( In charges of divinity in tradition

of ¹abara king Viºv¢vasu), take out the Brahma essence

from old idols by putting silk cloth cover on their eyes.

This is placed in a bound cloth (Brahma-po°al¤) in hearts

of the idols of Jagann¢tha, Balabhadra and Sudarºana

(Disc weapon of Jagann¢tha). It is below the left eye of

Subhadr¢ idol. It is in a cavity of 12 yava (=inch) cube

called Brahma-ko°har¤. After taking out the packet, cover

is removed from eyes and it is placed on golden seat.

Old sandal and tulas¤ (holy basil) of the packets is re-

placed by new. Then again eyes are covered and they

are placed in cavities of new idols. This is called gha°a-

parivartana (change of body or pot). It is surprising that

old sandal-tulas¤ are found in same form in which they

were placed 19 years ago in the idols. It is believed that

the persons doing this change of pot do not remain

alive for long. So, only old persons are selected.

4. History and geography-4 127

For placing Brahma in Jagann¢tha, the person is Swain-

Mah¢p¢tra, 2 D¢sa-Mah¢p¢tras for Balabhadra and

Subhadr¢ and 1 Pati-Mah¢p¢tra for Sudarºana. First of

all, the Brahma matter was placed in the idols by king

Indradyumna himself.

The new idols of Jagann¢tha, Balabhadra, Subhadr¢,

Sudarºana-after joined with Brahma, are brought from

Koili-Vaiku´°ha (place of construction) to A´asara (rest)

room in chariots. In same chariots, the old idols are to

Koila-Vaiku´°ha. This is done by Dait¢patis during night.

Koila-Vaiku´°ha is north of ¹r¤-mandira (also called

Jagann¢tha temple). In that temple, last rites are done

of old idols of Jagann¢tha, Balabhadra, Subhadr¢,

Sudarºana, their s¢rathi (charioteer), horses, side devas,

parrot, gate-keeper, flag-post, bed etc. On 10th day,

after cmpletion of rites, their impure period is over and

they cut their nails, hairs and take bath in M¢rka´²eya

pond. Ladies also cut their nails. On 12th day, saints

and Br¢hma´as are invited for eating mah¢-pras¢da (food

prepared in temple).

Dait¢patis start searching the tree for making new idols

on Chaitra ºukla 10th day. On that day noon, idols of

Jagann¢tha, Balabhadra, Subhadr¢ are garlanded. After

worship with incense, these idols are given by P¦j¢-

pa´²¢ to Pati-Mah¢p¢tra. This is called ¡j®¢-m¢l¢ (gar-

land of command). Pati-Mah¢p¢tra (Vidy¢pati) gives

these garlands to main Dait¢patis. Dait¢patis are divided

into 4 groups for searching tree. They are called B¢²a-

gr¢h¤ (receivers of wood). They are in family line. D¢sa-

Mah¢p¢tra search the tree for Balabhadra (Ba²a-

b¢²a=big tree) and Subhadr¢

128 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

(middle tree). Dait¢ searching tree for Jagann¢tha is

Sv¢in-Mah¢p¢tra (family title) and the work is called

Mah¢prabhu-b¢²a (wood of the great God).

On getting the garland, symbol of command, persons

in search of tree are given a formal letter of permission

from the temple. As authorization, they are given head-

gears (Sirop¢). Persons for miscellaneous works like

making of temple, rest shade, food, carpenter etc are

also given clothes. Then they proceed in a procession

with music to the palace of Gajapti (literally lord of el-

ephants) king of Pur¤. Only, Dait¢pati as descendant of

Viºv¢vasu enters the palace. Living symbol of Jagann¢tha

is king of Puri. He welcoms them by giving coconut,

betelnut, rice, gold in a dish through RaÃjaguru. This is

raja-¢jn¢ (permission of king). Then the procession pro-

ceeds to Jagann¢tha-vallabha ma°ha. The search party

takes night-rest here. Here, they are joined with

Br¢hma´as, keeper of books. Next morning vana-j¢ga-

pada-y¢tr¢ (trecking to forest) starts. About 100 per-

sons join this-Vidy¢pati, Dait¢patis as descendants of

Viºv¢vasu, Yaj®a doing Br¢hma´as, ¡ch¢rya (precep-

tor), R¢jguru, priest of temple, carpenters, masons,

sepoys, cartmen, searchers (Le¬k¢) etc. They reach

K¢ka°apur, about 60 kilometers from Pur¤ and place the

Sudarºana with goddess Ma¬gal¢ there. The goddess is

bathed with water of 100 pitchers, worshipped with

clothes, ornaments and a red flag is placed on top of the

temple. This is called ba²a-sing¢ra-ve¾a (grand make-

up). Pa´²itas recite Durga-sapta-ºat¤. ¡ch¢rya, R¢jaguru,

Br¢hma´a and Patimah¢p¢tra recite Svapnavati-mantra

before sleep. The

4. History and geography-4 129

goddess indicates the direction of desired tree in dream.

Sometimes, it is indicated by the direction in which the

garland of goddess falls. Other Dait¢pati and servants

take rest in Deul¤ ma°ha.

As commanded in dream, the persons in 4 groups

proceed to search the tree. Signs of trees are given in

Indra-n¤la-ma´i Pur¢´a. All the trees for idol are of neem

(margosa).

Signs in tree for Jagann¢tha idol-This should be

near ¹iva temple or cemetery, of black of dark red

colour, 7-12 hands high, straight and well formed and

with 4 branches. At the root of tree, there should be

ant-hill. It should be near tri-junction of roads, or sur-

rounded by 3 mountain tops or near river or pond. There

should be ma°ha, temple, or place of sages nearby. On

stem of tree signs of Vi¾´u-ºankha (conch), chakra (disc),

gad¢ (mace), padma (lotus) should be visible. Trees of

bael, sahda, or varuna should surround it. It should be

without any climbing creepers and guarded by snakes.

There should be no bird nest. No branch should be

damaged by lightning or winds.

Signs for Balabhadra tree-White tree with 7

branches, crown is like hood of snake. Stem has signs

of Balabhadra-hala (plough), m¦sala (crushing rod).

Signs for Subhadr¢ tree-Tree with 5 branches, with

yellow bark and with lotus mark.

Signs for Sudarºna tree- Reddish tree with 3

branches and with mark of disc.

These trees are adopted for idols and Sudarºana

brought from temple is placed near them due to which

evil ghosts

130 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

run away. Then ground is worshipped and yaj®a is done

by authorized ¢ch¢rya with N¨sinha mantra. Tree is

bathed and worshipped with sandal paste, vermilion etc.

Then the garlands of command are placed on respective

trees (garland from Jagann¢tha idol to tree for him, and

so on). The axes of gold, silver and iron are worshipped

and selected trees are touched with that. Then the trees

are cut from root and felled in east, north or north-east

direction. Felling in south or west direction is inauspisous.

Bark is removed and wood is chiselled in rectangular

shape. It is covered with P¢°a cloth and the remaining

wood is buried under ground.

The trees for idols are found in regions around Puri,

Khurda, Cuttack etc. This has been seen in 1912,

1931,1950,1966, 1977 and 1976. It is not necessary

that they will be in a particular area only.

These trees start emanating sandal like good smell for

many years and are guarded by snakes. They inspire

good thoughts. Respect for them arises due to com-

mand of gods in dream also. Attempts to damage or sale

the trees fail.

Small carts are made to carry the wood to ¹r¤-kºetra.

Arms of the cart are of 8 hand length. Its wheel are from

bunyan, beam is from tamarind and axle is from kendu

tree. Wood for idols is tied in 4 wheeled carts with silk

cloth. The procession of carts is brought with songs and

drums etc.in the sequence-Sudarºana, Balabhadra,

Subhadr¢, Jagann¢tha. Near A°har-n¢l¢ (drain for food

waste of temple), there is temple of ¡lama-cha´²¤. The

team rests for the night there. Next morning, people of

Puri

4. History and geography-4 131

welcom them to town with misic etc. Woods are placed

in temple before sn¢na-y¢tr¢ (trip for bath). Hari had

appeared

on Jye¾°ha p¦r´im¢ (full moon), so the idols are given

bath on that day-

pedastal for bath. Water is broufght from the golden

well in front of ¹¤tal¢ goddess temple. Total of 108 pots

of water is used for bath-35 for Jagann¢tha, 33 for

Balabhadra, 22 for Subhadr¢, and 18 for Sudarºana.

Then the wood for idols is brought to Koili Vaiku´°ha

through north gate and kept in newly made d¢ru-º¢l¢

(house for wood). Construction starts in a shed (nirm¢´a-

ma´²apa). Loud songs are sung so that sound of con-

struction is not heard. Due to extra month of ¡¾¢²ha,

gods are not seen for 1 1/2 months after sn¢na-p¦r´im¢.

Construction work is done for 2 weeks and Brahma-

matter is placed in them. Then in the second ¡¾¢²ha,

purification and colouring of idols is done.

As per M¢dala-p¢nji (chronological records) of 1650,

hands of Jagann¢ta are 84 yava long. His idol also is 84

yava long, so he appears round shape. Each hand is of

42 yava of which 20 yava part is invisible due to atached

with head and 22 yava is seen.

Head-36 3/4 yava

Neck- 12 yava

Heart- 09 yava

Waist-10 1/2 yava

132 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Balabhadra idol is shaped like a conch. Length of his

hands are 36 3/4 yava, out of which 13 3/4 yava is

linked with head and 23 yava is visible.

Head from snake crown to lips- 31.5 yava

Neck - 10.5 yava

Heart and lotus- 15 3/4 yava

Feet - 26 1/4 yava

Total 84 yava

Idol of Subhadr¢ is of lotus shape.

Head- 19 3/4 yava

Heart - 03 1/4 yava

Waist - 19 3/4 yava

Feet - 09 3/4 yava

Total 52.5 yava

As per definition 1 angula (digit) is of 6 or 8 yava.

But it is symbolic and the tradition of Pur¤ takes it as 1

inch or 2.54 cm.

From the woods brought fom forest, a piece is taken

out for pr¢´a-prati¾°h¢ (charging it with soul). This is

called ny¢sa-d¢ru (wood for ceremony). This ny¢sa-d¢ru

is divided into 4 pieces. After Brahma-matter is placed

in cavities of idols, opening of cavity is purified with

these and it is closed in main (second) ¡¾¢²ha k¨¾´a 14

th midnight.

To complete the idols, 7 paints are given. Wood is

like bones, they are smeared with scented oil as rasa

(juice). Then body is tied firmly with silk thread of dark

red colour as nerves. Then as skin, there is paste of

sandal powder, kast¦r¤ (musk from deer) and dh¦pa (a

scented wood). Then strong fabric layers are tied and

on last layer paste of rice

4. History and geography-4 133

is put which is like seed of men. Then the idols are

painted

with prescribed procedure. Painting is complete with

colouring of eyes on main ¡¾¢²ha ºukla 1st (new moon).

After bathing it, new youth (nava-yauvana) is seen by

people. Next day, on 2nd tithi (generally with pu¾ya

star), ratha-y¢tr¢ starts. Details are described in Skanda

pur¢´a, Tithi-tattva, Nir´aya-sindhu, Sm¨ti-kaustubha

etc.

5. Ratha-y¢tr¢-Ratha construction is done near pal-

ace of king in front of temple main gate. Ratha is like

human body, so this is made with 5 materials-wood,

paint, nails, metals. Each year new ratha is made from

Akºaya trit¤y¢ (3rd day of bright half.). This is a family

tradition of carpenters. A total of 205 sev¢yatas (ser-

vants) including carpenter, painter etc. are engaged. Each

ratha is of about 65 tons made of heavy woods like sal,

asan, phasi.

1.Nandigho¾a ratha- This is name of ratha of ¹r¤

¹e¾a (infinite serpent holding the world) sees it like

incarnation Balabhadra is T¢ladhvaja. Or Balabhadra is

with plough, so his flag has plough sign. Or as ¹e¾a, he

carries Jagann¢tha, he has no carrier. Thus, his ratha is

not marked with his vehicle (Garu²a of Jagann¢tha) but

his working implement plough. This is called l¢ngala or

the ratha of Subhadr¢. Then Balabhadra and Jagann¢tha

are brought to their rathas. Then ¹ankar¢ch¢rya of

Govardhana P¤°ha, Pur¤ comes and worships the 3 devas

on 3 rathas. Then he does 3 rounds of the rathas. Then

the chief servant of Jagann¢tha, Gajapati King of Pur¤

comes and sweeps the path of 3 rathas with golden

broom-this is called Chher¢-pahar¢. The sandal mixed

water is sprinkled and other formalities are done.

Then thick ropes of coconut fibre are tied with each

axle. There is a heavy wooden log hanging with ropes at

front of ratha to act as a brake. Some sev¢yatas sit on

front part of the ratha to apply brakes when needed.

Two ropes are used for pulling the ratha-one is straight

and the other

136 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

twisted. The rathas are placed in front of Simha-dv¢ra

(Lion gate) on ¡¾¢²ha ºukla 1st, a day before ratha-

y¢tr¢ in a direction so that they move straight on ba²a-

d¢´²a (grand road). Flags are used to indicate move-

ment or stopping of rathas. All the three rathas are joined

with s¢rathi (charioteer) and horses (their idols only).

They are pulled by devotees upto Gu´dich¢ temple about

3 km away. Now the pulling is mostly done by police-

men on duty.

Great importance has been given to seeing ratha-y¢tr¢,

touching ratha or idols or even to stand on the road

through which the rathas are passing. Balabhadra ratha

is ahead, followed by Subhadr¢ in middle and Jagann¢tha

at back.

There is a tradition that rathas are not pulled after

sunset. Even if they reach Gundicha temple, they enter

it on next day only. On Her¢ (dispute) pancham¤, Lakºm¤

comes from Jagann¢tha temple to see Jagann¢tha, his

brother and sister, but she is not allowed to meet them

by sev¢yatas. Being angered, she breaks a part of ratha

of Jagann¢tha.

After rest for 7 days in Gu´²ich¢ temple, the three

return to their temple. This is called B¢hul¢ (return)

journey. It may be noted that K¢rttikeya also is called

B¢huleya (i.e. son of Bahul¢), which indicates that it

started with victory of devas under him.

Puru¾ottama Deva was on K¢®ch¤ expedition. Jagann¢tha

and Balabhadra on white and black horses went ahead

of him. Near Chilka lake (coastal lagoon), a milkmaid

named M¢´ika gave tem curd. On asking for price,

Jagann¢tha K¨¾´a gave her his jewelled ring and told

that the king is following and he would pay the price on

showing the ring. When M¢´ika gave the ring to king,

he was stunned to see ring given by God himself. On

return after victory over K¢®ch¤, he built a town named

M¢´ikapa°an¢ in her honour.

Muslim devotee Salbeg and Matta Balaramdas were

denied access to ratha. Then ratha did not move, till

they were allowed to see.

Unity of all forms1. Key of G¢yatr¤-G¢yatr¤ mantra is key of vedas,

called veda-m¢t¢ (mother of vedas). It has many impli-

cations-

(1) G¢yatr¤ is a meter of 24 letters(syllables). All the

worlds are measured by this, bcacuse they are in ratio

of 1crore starting from man. Thus, man size doubled 24

times is earth, in same successive multiples are solar

system, galaxy and universe (larger than the visible part

or tapah loka).

(2) G¢yatr¤ chhanda has 4 parts of 6 letters but mantra

has 3 parts of 8 letters each. This is creation of world

with 3 gu´as, so veda in world or word forms is also is

three parts describing 3 gu´as (G¤t¢ 2/45). Its source

Brahma is also viewed in 3 forms-Om, Tat, Sat (G¤t¢

17/23). This is visualized as trinity of Jagann¢tha,

Balabhadra and Subhadr¢.

(3) Each syllable is of 8 letters maximum-around a vowel

4 letters can come before and 3 afterwards, so v¢k has

been called Anu¾°up (meter of 8 x4 syllables)-Aitareya

Br.1/28, 3/15 and about 100 other refs.

(4) Each physical form is of 8 forms called 8 vasu. This

is due to combination of 3 gu´as making 8 prak¨tis

(2x2x2=8)

Thus g¢yatr¤ of 3 parts (pada) or anu¾°up of 4 parts-

each has 8 syllables.

G¢yatr¤ has been specifically called Veda-m¢t¢ in

Atharva-veda (19/71)-

and purifier of twice born. (M¢=measure, as measure of

world, its elements, g¢yatr¤ is mother. Creation comes

out of mother, so she is also measure). G¢yatr¤ gives

longevity, energy, off-springs, consumables, fame, money,

glory of Brahma. After giving earth, one goes to place of

Brahma.

However, sage Daivarata of Gokar´a considers the

following verse of §k as the source-

EH$: gwnU©: g g_wÐ_m{ddoe, g BX§ {díd§ wdZ§ {d MîQ>oŸ&V§ nmHo$Z _Zgmní`_{ÝVVñV§, _mVm aopùh g C aopùh _mVa_²Ÿ&Ÿ&(F$H²$.10/114/4) One Bird entered sea, he created the worlds and its

beings. He saw the whole with clear mind and nurtured

the earth like a mother.

The geographical meaning is that lord of ships in seas

is called Supar´a (Suvanna nayak). Where the Supar´a

had entered at end of coast is called (Su-) T¢mrapar´¤,

land of T¢mra-par´¤ is called Tamil. Lords of land in

coastal area is Relhi-called Reddi in Andhra and Rele in

Maharashtra. Near Sut¢mrapar´¤, K¢rttikeya had started

his campaign in water-his vehicle may¦ra (Peacock)

spread to island of Pacific-whose langauge over the larg-

est region of world is Maori (may¦r¤)-a form of Tamil.

solar system, and galaxy- and their 3 skies-there are 7

lokas in all. These are called 3 or 7 vy¢h¨ti (expansion

of Om). These take from root source Aum (¢h¨ti) and

create out of them, so they are vy¢h¨ti. They make syn-

Brahma can be seen. The root cause of creation is de-

kalpa-tree (ek¢mra=number one among trees) where

Lingar¢ja resides in Bhubaneshwar at end of dh¢ma of

stars. Finally, our brain with 100 billion neurons is im-

age of that field of mind. Thus, ¹iva is root of all inspira-

tions in our mind. The first 6 s¦ktas of V¢j. Yajurveda

chapter 34 are called sÃiva-sankalpa-s¦kta, as they pray

for descending of ¹iva-sankalpa in our mind. This form

of ¹iva is va°a (bunyan tree) or Dakºi´eºvara (teacher

form). Crown of bunyan tree throws aerial branches,

which fall on ground and become independent tree as

the teacher makes the student a man like himself. This

tree (druma) from original druma is called dumadum¢.

Thus, at all places of teacher form of ¹iva, there is

dumadum¢-near Amritsar in Punjab Damadama sahib,

Dumdum¢ near K¢m¢khy¢ in Asam and near Lingar¢ja

in Bhubaneswar, Orissa. In Kolkata, Dumduma near

Dakºi´eºvara has become Dumdum airport.

Lingas of ¹iva-Linga means outer form. Outer body

form indicates sex of the person, so it means sex also.

that micro form is called m¦la-mantra (svayambh¦-linga).

Next is gamana (motion) called b¢´a-linga. B¢´a means

arrow which is used to indicate direction of motion.

Signs of Parameºvara (its created objects in which it has

entered) are also linga. These are itara (=other, differ-

In space, root world as uniform rasa is Svayambh¦ linga.

Various forms are seen on earth and solar system, they

are infinite, but classified as 12 r¢ºi (zodiac signs). In

those, jyoti (light) of sun varies, so they are called

jyotirlinga. On earth, centre of civilization is India which

is place of norms of conduct. So all lingas are here only.

At the end of Jagann¢tha dh¢ma, Lingar¢ja is at

Bhubaneshwar, Orissa. Adjacent to it, Trilinga is in

Telangana in Andhra-pradesh. 12 jyotirlingas are in

whole of India.

In human body, the linga in m¦l¢dh¢ra at center of

orifices of stool and urine is the organ from where man

is born, so it is svayambh¦ linga. Center of blood and

air circulation is at heart chakra-an¢hata- which is place

called Enoch (son of Ina=sun) in Bible and Hanuka in

Koran. In old version of old testament of Bible, Book of

Enoch explains calender system based on 7 lanes on

earth within which sun moves. These are described as

equqtor and latitude circles at 12, 20, 24 degrees north

and south in vedic literature (see ¡vara´a-v¢da by Pa´²it

ender might have started.

Hanum¢n as mind starts from initial desire of God to

create replicas. It became group of galaxies whose im-

age is our galaxy with 100 billion stars. Its image is our

mind with 100 billion neurons. ¹iva is field of mind,

Hanum¢n is motion or fluctuation in it called manojava

(speed of mind). This is described in §k (10/71/7-8)

about 2000 root verbs (Ny¢ya-ma®jar¤, Taittir¤ya S. 6/

4/7), Maitr¢ya´¤ S. 4/5/8, K¢´va sam. 27/2, Kapi¾°hala

Sam.42/3, ¹atapatha .4/1/3/11)

8. K¢rttikeya forms-There are two methods of knowl-

edge-By countable objects, and by abstract non

countables. These are called countable and abstract

nouns in English grammer. Collection of contable dis-

creet objects is Brahma, their knowledge is Ga´eºa. See-

ing pattern in a collection of objects is Subrahma

(Brahma parts joined by suveda-sveda=sweating) and

its knowledge is Subrahma´ya (name of K¢rttikeya).

Suveda or sveda is explained at many places-

dm½d¡ ~«÷ M gw~«÷ Mo{V (EoVao` ~«m.6/3)=V¢k is Brahma and

Subrahma also. ~«÷lrd£ Zm_¡VËgm_ `Ëgw~«÷Ê`m (fpS²>de ~«m.1/2)=¹r¤ (power, source) of Brahma is its s¢ma which is

Subrahma´ya.

it is called sveda (sweating).

Tamil script also is Subrahma´ya as the first 4 sounds

in groups from k to p are clubbed together. Collection

of galaxies or stars in galaxy is Ga´eºa or Brahma, its

perceived shape is Subrahma´ya. Similarly, collection

of cells in human body is Ga´eºa, their shape as organs

or body is K¢rttikeya.

K¢rttikeya had 6 K¨ttik¢s as mothers in following senses-

(1) 6 types of world -1abstract and its 5 parvas.

(2) 6 stars in K¨ttik¢ group (Alcyone), 7th star became

dim in historic past-he was born in that moon star.

(3) 6 centres of armed forces in India like 4 p¤°has of

¹ankar¢ch¢rya now. They are called 6 mothers of

K¢rttikeya (Taittir¤ya sam.4/4/5/9-15, Tai.Br.3/1/4)-

Dul¢, Nitatni, Abhrayant¤, Meghayant¤, Var¾ayant¤,

Chupu´¤k¢. All are called Amb¢ (mother, or this is the

7th star which has become dim now. These are star

names of Alcyone group. Temples of Dul¢ are in Orissa

near Bhubaneswar and Cuttack-It might have been near

the victory tower at Ko´¢rka. Dul¢la (=son of Dul¢)

name is popular in Orissa and Bengal under the zone of

Dul¢. Chopra title is in Punjab, zone of Chupu´¤k¢.

Meghani/Meghwal titles are in Rajsthan/Gujrat, zone of

Meghayant¤, though there is little rain there. Abhrayant¤

may be in zone of Abhraka (mica).

(4) Real mother of K¢rttikeya might be Bahul¢ as he is

called B¢huleya. She may be Gu´²ich¢ who is sister of

mother of Jagann¢tha in V¢mana incarnation. The re-

turn car festival is caled Bahul¢ (extra, return) y¢tr¢.

5.Unity of all forms-8 163

(5) Six chakras in human spinal chord which need to be

crossed for salvation.

With 6 mothers, he is called ½¢´m¢turah. In Tamil, he is

popular as Subrahma´ya, Arumugam (aru=6, mugam

=mukham=mouth), ½a´mugam (½a°=6), Sen°ila

(sentinal)=protector.

Parallel to forms of Ga´eºa, there will be forms of

K¢rttikeya. Both are sons of ¹iva, source of perception.

After K¢rttikeya erected victory tower at Ko´¢rka,

Ga´eºa became head of state. On this insult after great

victory, K¢rttikeya went to south and created Tamil lan-

guage with subrahma´ya script which was shorter for

marine use. May¦ra (pea-cock),vehicle of K¢rttikeya

spread as Maori tribe with same language in largest

region of earth in Pacific islands. Near, (Su-)Tamra-Par´¤

(T¢miln¢²u coast), K¢rttikeya had made his marine base.

So the Supar´a (Bird with good wings) looking after

coastal land is called Reddi (in Andhra Pradesh) or Rele

as mother of Vedas in a s¦kta (19/71) of Atharva of

ness. After giving earth (by detachment), one goes to

Brahmaloka.

9. Goddess forms-Brahma is neither male nor fe-

male. He takes up opposite pair of forms for creation-

they are called agni-soma, yo¾¢-v¨¾¢, puru¾a-ºr¤ etc.

Pointwise consciousness is puru¾a (male), area of its

spread is ºr¤ (female). Three forms of ºakti are 3 parts

of g¢yatr¤, called Bh¢rat¤, £l¢, Sarasvat¤-

As per Nirukta (8/13), Bharata is ¡ditya and Bh¢rat¤ is

its Bh¢ (brightness). ¡ditya is that region of space and

matter from which creation started (¢di=start). ¡dityas

of svayambh¦ (whole world), parame¾°h¤ (galaxy) and

solar system are Aryam¢, Varu´a and Mitra (§k.2/27/

The 3 dev¤s are further divided into 3 each-they make

9 parts called nava-Durg¢. In Durg¢-saptaºat¤ (13 chap-

ters of M¢rka´²eya pur¢´a), they have been called K¢l¤,

Lakºm¤ and Sarasvat¤ with mah¢ prefix. 9 Durg¢ are

also named. Original form of world is described as dark

unknown indicated by K¢l¤ (black) whose devat¢ is

Brahm¢-creator. Second part is of Lakºm¤-visible world

born with advice of Vi¾´u. Third part of Sarasvat¤ gives

the knowledge of unity like ¹iva. Their seed mantras are

Kr¤m, Hr¤m, Aim-all with 3 parts each.

Aum is absolute unified Brahma, its individual forms are

Tat in which Brahma has entered.Tat=£m=unity of Brahma

and J¤va. ¹r¤ is symbol of Lakºm¤, power of the supreme

Puru¾a. £m is described at many places-

ity to good men.

11.Common Triples-

(1) Sat-¹r¤-Ak¢la-This is common greeting among

Sikhs. Here Ak¢la-Puru¾a is Jagann¢tha who has been

worshipped in opening verse of Guru-Grantha-sahab as

Puru¾a. K¢la is time. Kºara puru¾a (decaying outer

forms) is constantly decayed by nitya (eternal) time.

Akºara Puru¾a is functional identity whose yaj®a (cre-

ative work)in cycles is measure of time (Janya-k¢la).

The Avyaya Puru¾a is superior to these so it is

Puru¾ottama and un-affected by K¢la (time). Thus it is

Ak¢la-Puru¾a. Sat is the tangible world, known from its

boundary called Balabhadra. Bhadra =structure, Bala

means curved line and force which causes bodies to

move along curve (without force they will move in straight

5.Unity of all forms-11 169

line as per first law of motion by Newton). Thus,

visibleworld within boundary surfaces is sat or

Balabhadra. ¹r¤ is Subhadr¢. ¹r¤ is essence or bright-

ness, ºr¤ of men is in their head, so it is called ºira. For

respect, men are called ºr¤-yukta (=saradar) or ºr¤ (=sir).

Sikhs protect their ºr¤ with head gear, so they are

sardars.

(2) Sat-Chit-¡nanda- ¡nanda is root material of world.

In every chit (point space), there is something tangible

called Sat and ¡nanda is everywhere.

(3) ¹ankara-¹am Brahma=Kham+Kam+Ram Brahma.

Kham is space which is start of creation. Kam is kartt¢

(doer), matter (anna), or happiness. Ram is energy spread

everywhere (verb ram=to move), consumer of anna (mat-

ter). When Kam is consumed by Ram in Kham space, it

calms and becomes ¹am.

Kham is Brahma or its first creation space-

§k, motion is yajur, field of influence is s¢ma.

(b) S¦tra-Link of a point with others. This is of 3 types-

Satya is matter in closed space with a centre. §t is spread

matter without cente. Satya-¨t is their combinationn.

(c) Niyati (nature,direction of creation)-This is two ways-

forward (sa®chara), reverse (prati-sa®chara), so the

world is called Dvi-niyati (dunia). Thre are 3 agents of

change controlled by heart (control centre) called H¨daya

Iº¢v¢syopani¾d 4). Vir¢° is design of forms. Rasa is origi-

nal source matter.

(c) Bhoga (usable matter)-Dadhi (=curd) is solid, gh¨ta

(butter) is rare matter in galaxy, store of energy. Madhu

is active matter in solar system. Dadhi ocean is zone of

rocky planets and Madhu is called ¢ditya, its ocean is

upto uranus as stated in BhaÃgavata pur¢´a, part 5.

(3) Solar system-Jyoti is central bright zone. Gau is up

to 27 aharga´a where creation (kratu=yaj®a) is possible.

V¢k is zone of solar system where any mass will move

under gravitation of sun or its brightness is greater than

average of galaxy there (in the spiral arm). This is same

5.Unity of all forms-12 175

as 3 steps ofVi¾´u or rudra, ºiva, ºivatara, ºivatama zones.

(a) Jyoti (=radiation) itself is of 3 types-agni is dense

source, vidyut is till the flow of charged particles called

solar wind or ¤¾¢-da´²a (yajurveda 1/1, Bh¢gavata

pur¢´a, part 5). Remaining spread of energy is ¢ditya.

(b) Gau is creative zone. earth has been called gau in

pur¢´as and Gaia in Greek. This is co-terminus with

¢ditya area , so gau is called sister of ¢ditya. Vasu is

place of creation, so it is mother. Creation process gen-

erates energy which can break matter particles, so rudra

is daughter of gau.

(c) ¡yu (=longevity)-Here ¢yu=¢yatana, i.e. volume

which can come (¢ya=in come) in an enlosure. Zones

of space are divided as per chhandas-g¢yatr¤ is measure

of higher lokas-earth is 24 times double that of man,

solar system, galaxy, universe are bigger in same ratio.

Starting from earth, g¢yatr¤ is creative zone or earth of

solar system, tri¾°up is width of spiral arm of galaxy

where sun is located, and jagat¤ is size of galaxy-ex-

plained earlier. For men, these chhandas indicate parts

of life as per Aitareya Br¢hma´a. For 24 (g¢yatr¤) years,

man is growing and building himself. Then, for 44 years,

he is active. Then, he is man of world in general for

jagat¤ (48 years). This gives a total of 116 years age.

(4) Lunar orbit-(1) The sphere containing lunar orbit

is a zone of medium temperature and solid matters nec-

essary for creation of life forms on earth. Being balance

of Angr¢ (radiation) and matter (Bh¨gu), it is Atri. This

is born of Sun, which is eye of world (puru¾a-s¦kta 7).

176 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

So moon (or its zone) is born of Atri arising out of eyes

(Raghuvamºa, chap.2, last verse). Similarly, man takes

birth in womb of mother like safe zone of moon, from

male-female pair like angir¢-bh¨gu. Male ejects sperm

cell like angir¢, egg in womb of woman takes it like

bh¨gu and starts its growth.

This is tranquil zone for condensation of matter and

has energy to mix them for creation. Three stages of

matter bodies are called reta (=sand particle). This is of

3 types-soma is spread like liquid, n¢bh¢nedi¾°am has a

centre (n¢bhi=navel) near (=nedi¾°am) which it remains.

Hira´ya (=gold, shine) is dense in a boundary.

Effect of retah is Yaºa (=fame). Its 3 stages are-sur¢

(= toxic alcohol) which is perceived by other minds,

paºavah (animals=consumed by others) and

soma=spread or scattered at many places.

Link of one body with the other is ºraddh¢, its route

is called s¦tra (=thread). ¹raddh¢=ºrav¢ (line)+dh¢

(hold). Link is of three types-patn¤ (wife)-mutually de-

pendant pair of husband and wife. In Vedas, wife

(=tawayaf, for comfort of man like taw¢=cooking-pan

like earth moves round sun) is not servant of man and

husband is not herd of that animal as literal meaning.

Pati and patn¤-both mean master. Mixing equally like

water is ¢pah. Mild feeling without physical contact is

teja (radiation)

(5) Earth-V¢k is extent of earth, g¢yatr¤ (of 24 letters)

is earth (24 times double or 1 crore times man size),

solar field of creation, and galaxy (each bigger in same

5.Unity of all forms-12 177

ratio from previous). Tri¾°up (44 letters) is size of

maharloka in aharga´a scale (actually 43=2 40 times

earth). Jagat¤ (48 letters) is size of galaxy (49 aharga´a

=2 46 times earth size).

Gau has 3 qualities-place of creation, energy and mo-

tion for that. Like solar system, it has 3 parts. However,

energy here is borrowed from the sun. Energy released

from sun is S¢vitr¤ (produced), and its part received by

earth is g¢yatr¤.

Dyau (sky) is the environs which affect the earth. P¨thiv¤ is

upto 9 aharga´a (=64 earh radius away, moon is at 61) . Till

that distance, earth holds the object in its gravitational pull.

Antarikºa is intermediate space upto 15 aharga´a called

Var¢ha-the sphere upto 60% distance of venus orbit, which

intimately affects the climatic changes. Dyau (sky) is zone of

21 aharga´a upto saturn whose planets cause minor pertur-

bations in earth orbit.

13. Shape of Jagann¢tha-Jagann¢tha is conscious-

ness which is spread in each cell of body and is invis-

ible. However, its center of control is centre of brain

which is called Linga-ºar¤ra (indicative body). Its shape

is like the shape of Jagann¢tha idols made by tradition,

described in previous chapter. Figures of central brain

compared with Jagann¢tha is at next two pages.

Subhadr¢ is spread of consciousness even outside

the body, and represents the mana (mind). Balabhadra

is the curved boundary of human body.

14. Path of devotion-In final essence, all objects

are one with Brahma. Self is same as Brahma as well as

all other objecs. Then why should we worship some

body else. Main reason is that we do not have realiza-

tion as God, we think ourselves as separate beings. For

uniting with God, we have to start from separated stage.

Devotion is needed as we are divided from God. In En-

glish, Devotion is derived from division. In Sanskrita

also, bhakti is derived from bh¢ga (partition). The sepa-

rateness due to boundary of m¢y¢ is called j¤va. Its at-

tempt of link with Brahma is devotion. Other aspects,

on which we are not meditating are ºe¾a (remainder)

which is a name of Balabhadra. The obstruction be-

tween J¤va (like wife) and Brahma Jagann¢tha as hus-

band is Subhadr¢. She is sister of husband who does

not like closeness of her brother with his wife. So she is

nananda (=who does not become happy). J¤va is part of

worldly conscousness, separated by m¢y¢. Similarly S¤t¢

was between R¢ma and LaksÃma´a as m¢y¢ is between

J¤va and Brahma-

The influence of heat of Sun is felt 1000 diameters from

sun. A man is known to about1000 persons. A compact

unit of village, town, or army is of about 1000 persons.

It also means infinite or very large number

(Mudgalopani¾ad,1)

¹¤r¾a-Head contains ºr¤ or essence of man, so it is called

º¤r¾a. Akºa-It means eyes or axis.

P¢da-Feet, end product, or base for keeping feet.

Sa=He. Or, That, used for supreme Brahma.

Bh¦mi-Earth of 3 types-planet earth, solar system,galaxy.

The whole univers also is bh¦mi. Human body or any

land mass (village, town etc.)

Viºva-world, all. Viºvatah-All round.

V¨tv¢-By surrounding. Ati=extra, more. Ati¾°hat=Sat,

settled, existing. Daºa=Ten. Angula=finger, its width is

a measure of length.

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-1 185

Any unit can be called angula in general meaning.

Puru¾a has been explained earlier-(1) It lives in body called

Pum, (2) It sleeps (ºayana) in pum, (3) In all pura or struc-

tures of world, (4) It was p¦rva (before) all, (5) It is pur¢´a

(old), (6) Vi¾´u is puru¾a as he donates profusely, (7) It is

p¦r´a (complete), (8) Praised by pur¢´as, (9) By tradition, it

indicates the supreme being.

Explanation-(1) The three s¢hasr¤s (fields) are in each

of 5 stages of world in which one manot¢ is dominant.

These 15 s¢hasr¤ (saha=together, sra=move) are source

of world-ghòYm nÄMXemÝ`wŠWm `mdX² Úmdmn¥{Wdr Vmd{XV² VV²Ÿ&ghg«Ym _{h_mZ: ghò§ `mdX² ~«÷ {dpîQ>V§ VmdVr dmH²$ (F$H²$.10/114/8)

Three s¢hasr¤ in each parva are produced due to inter-

action of Indra (radiation) and Vi¾´u (gravitation, re-

ceiving). They are explained at page 173.

(2) In solar system the three zones due to Indra-Vi¾´u

are defined clearly with scale. The zones are at 103,

106, 109 diameters, their bh¦mi is 1/10 th part of each.

10 times that bh¦mi is their puru¾a.

(3) In human body, bh¦mi is brain around which per-

sonality is formed. Puru¾a is 10 times that and it also

has 10 fingers as ends for action. Within body, part

below navel is bh¦mi, head is svah and middle is

antarikºa. 10 digit width above navel is heart where £ºvara

(controller) resides (G¤t¢ 18/61).

(4) Planet earth is commonly taken as bh¦mi. Puru¾a

(earth planet) has 1000 heads, 2000 hands and feet.This

is circumference of earth (with atmosphere) in angulas-

186 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

24/25 c 1000 c 2000 c 2000 angula

=24/25 c 1/96 c 4 c10 9 da´²a = 4 c 10 9 da´²a.

As per original definition of meter also, circumference

of earth is 4 c10 9 meter. So 1 da´²a=1 meter here.

(5) Bha is 24th consonant and indicates prak¨ti (mate-

rial cause of creation. Matter=mother) with 24 elements.

Bh¦ is created world with 24 elements, mi gives mea-

sure or boundary by the 25th element-undivided puru¾a.

Its form in a boundary is bh¦mi, the spread of con-

sciousness. 10 times that boundary is Bh¦m¢ (greatest).

Similarly, the controller perceived in human or other

bodies is £ºa, its grand form is £º¢ as in £º¢v¢sya-upani¾ad.

Bh¦mi is created within boundary-

future. He is lord of immortality and grows from grains.

Idam=This created world. Eva=definitely. Sarvam=All.

Yad=Whatever. Bh¦tam=Happened (in past).

Bh¢vyam=To happen (in future). Cha, Uta=and.

Am¨tatva=Immortality, eternity. £º¢nah=Lord.

Anna=Grains, Annena=By grains. Ati-rohati=grows. This

is used for growth of a tree. Rohati is rising or increas-

ing. Ati =excess, extra. Plants add layers after layer each

year on tree trunks, branches and leaves are added.

Animals grow in size in all organs.

Explanation-(1) Puru¾a is past i.e. cause and

future=effect also. This is current process or actions of

this world. Thus it is not only all the matter-animate and

inanimate, it is also all actions, cause and effects.

(2) Growth like a plant means that the past is not com-

pletely finished, its traces remain from which past (and

future also) can be inferred with some uncertainty.

(3) Eternal essence is the root of world. It can be real-

ized by rising step by step from anna (grains of gross

matter). Within human body, we rise from M¦l¢dh¢ra

(physical body) to Sahasr¢ra (at crown of head=highest

level of Brahma, immortal) through intermediate chakras-

Sv¢dhi¾°h¢na=fluid element, Ma´ip¦ra=Fire,

digestion,An¢hata=Air, communication, Viºuddhi=sky,

188 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

¡j®¢=link of J¤va and £ºvara.

(4) Soul after death rises step by step along the world

tree. Earthly body is consigned to earth in soil, air, wa-

ter, or fire(Atharva,18/2/34). Body of lunar zone is

formed in10 days (Daºa-g¢tra), and rises to outer sur-

face of moon in 13 lunar revolution or 12 lunar months

(monthly ºr¢ddha). Then, annual ºr¢ddha is done while

it traverses solar system. For its crossing, Gay¢-ºr¢dha

is done. Gaya=the pr¢´a whih goes beyond solar sys-

tem. It then goes to next level of galaxy, where it re-

mains for a kalpa (Vi¾´u pur¢´a, 2/7/12). Finally, it

loses individuality and merges in Svayambh¦.

(5) From any stage of life we have to rise to the next

stage, which is expressed in the mantra for offer of d¦rv¢

Three p¢da (feet or quarters) of the Puru¾a are above

the world and its fourth p¢da has become this world.

Then, it pervades all this creation ot two types-one which

eats or consumes (animate, agni), the other does not

eat (inanimate, soma).

Tri-p¢da-Three steps or feet, 3 quarters.

¥rdhva-Up, above. There is nothing up or down in space.

This is only for surface of earth, different for each place.

Wherever we stand, direction towards feet (center of earth)

is below, its opposite towards head or outward from earth-

center is up. What is up in India, is down in south America. In

space, up means source of creation, down is created thing.

This is explained in world tree (G¤t¢ 15/1).

Udait-rises, settles, is placed.

Asya-of this. Iha-This. Abhavat-Became. Punah=again.

Tatah (tato)-Then. Vi¾va¼=All, world.

Vyakr¢mat-Pervading.

Aºana=To eat. There are 3 main verbs for eating-Bhuj=to

consume food or any thing. Ad=to consume with joy.

Aºa or Aºana=To be hungry, desire for eating. Bhuj and

ad are alright, but there is worry in mind while consum-

ing as in aºana. While doing work, desire for fruits or its

hunger is prohibited in G¤t¢-

H$_©Ê odm{YH$mañVo _m \$bofw H$XmMZ (2/47)Ÿ&Thus, aºan¢ means dirty or bad in Oriya.

S¢ºana=With activity of eating. This is sign of animate

beings, but it leads to death. So ¢ºn¢y¢ has been called

death-Z¡doh {H$ÄMZmJ« AmgrÝ_¥Ë`wZ¡doX_md¥V_mgrV²Ÿ& AeZm``meZm`m {h_¥Ë wñVÝ_Zmo@Hw$éVmË_Ýdr ñ`m{_{VŸ& (~¥hXmaÊ`H$ Cn.1/2/1)

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-4 193

Anaºana-Not eating, not involved mentally. These are

two aspects of life system-one part is involved in action

and its results, the other just watches (and corrects it if

necessary). This is principle of automatic systems-there

should be parallel processing for correction-

9/20,{Zéº$14/30,_wÊS>H$Cn.3/1/1,ídoVmídVa Cn.4/6)

I.e. two birds (involved part is j¤va=eve, detached watcher

is ¢tm¢=Adam) are living together friendly on middle of

same tree. One among them enjoys eating pippala (a

tree, here it means phala=fruit for which there is

desire=piba); the other keeps watch without eating with

desire.

Abhi=All around, used as a prefix also with same mean-

ing. Vi¾va¬=of varied forms, all over.

Vi=Specially. Akr¢mat=Has pervaded.

Explanation-(1) This looks like a repeatition of the previ-

ous third verse, but there is some difference in meaning and

approach. Both verses speak of 3+1 feet of Puru¾a, but ear-

lier verse is just a classification. This gives order and cause of

creation. The feet in sky are above i.e. source of creation.

The world is an end product.

(2) This also gives two acts-relating to aºana-hunger

and its resulting acts. Brahma is a divided in active and

detached parts-both are same, but appear different. It is

also taken as animate and inanimate. Creation proceeds

due to hunger only. To make up the deficit, new cre-

ation occurs-Zdmo Zdmo ^d{V Om`_mZmo@•m§ Ho$Vwéfgm_oË`J«_²Ÿ&

I.e. from the ninth (randhra=hole, deficit) new is cre-

ated. In creation phase (day of Brahm¢-G¤t¢ 8/18), this

is a pointer.

1.Maheºvara-Boundaries by m¢y¢.

2. ½o²aº¤=With 16 kal¢s-indicated by 3 sahar¤s for each

of 5 levels of world-Verse 1.

3.Satya-With gu´a of 3 types-3 steps immortal in space-

verses 2 and 3-existance in 3 times-past, present, fu-

ture. Sat is existence.

4.Yaj®a-Sequence of creation from Svayambh¦ to P¨thiv¤.

Chain of creation fom source at above and branches

below is tree of world. Material suffers transformation

called vik¢ra (=defect, deformation). 4 steps of Puru¾a

as chain-verse 4.

5.Vir¢°-Structures with A®jana (identifying features).

6.Viºva-With ¡vara´a (covering boundary) of each body or

object. Earlier forms were without cover (Akabar in Koran).

Human and other bodies were formed at this stage.

(2) Each structure has a controlling puru¾a. These are

replicas of Svayambh¦ (see page 52).

(3) Each of the 5 levels and fields of earth are described

in ¹atapatha br.(6/1/1/1-10, 6/1/2/1-4).

(4) Final image of world is man, as he has the same

number of particles in his brain as galaxies in visible

universe or stars in our galaxy.

196 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

(5) In words used by P¢®cha-r¢tra (of 5 nights, 5 levels

of creation)-the sequence is-1. V¢sudeva (deva of

v¢sa=place, space, clothes), 2. Sa¬kar¾a´a (mutual

attarction of gravitation), 3. Pradyumna-Emitting light

by suns, 4. Aniruddha-Unbounded, multifarious be-

ings. These terms are mentioned in last chapter of S¦rya-

siddh¢nta also. These are the names related to K¨¾´a

incarnation-His father was Vasudeva. As his son, he is

V¢sudeva. His brother is Sa¬kar¾a´a (Balar¢ma) and

son is Pradyumna whose face was like K¨¾´a. Son of

Pradyumna was Aniruddha, married to U¾¢, daughter of

Narak¢sura, king of Pr¢g-jyoti¾apura (Asam).

(gr¢ma =group, or village) and scattedred (ara´ya=forest).

Tasm¢t- From that. Yaj®¢t-From yaj®a.

Sarvahut- The process of creation in which everything (sarva)

is consumed (huta). Here, meaning of offering or consump-

tion of all is-(1) Offering of oneself-This is cocept of bakarid

will become highest among all beings, get their lordship

and sovereignty. By doing so, he achieved all these.(1)

That sarvamedha is a yaj®a of 10 nights creation. (Night

means calm situation for creation;10 nights are inter-

spersed with 10 days-they can mean any cycle-day,

month, year, manvantara, kalpa). Vir¢° (chhanda) is of

10 syllables (in each p¢da). Vir¢° is all anna (grain,

materials). All anna are for its use (avaruddha=enclosed-

in a form). The upper Agni or Agni with size of par¢rdha

yojana (galaxy) transforms the materials. This is the high-

est among craetive yaj®as. That is Sarvamedha. That is

done by the Supreme, so it is the highest.

Yaj®a of 10 nights is in 10 rotations of galaxy, 10 years,

10 lunar revolutions or 10 earth days. creation of man

is in 10 rotations of moon (273 days). The body after

earth.Yaj®a of 10 nights is described at pages 74-75.

That Puru¾a is of 5 types. Hot part is jyoti (light), vacant

space is ¢k¢ºa (word). Blood, cough, semen are water.

Solid body is earth. Pr¢´a (of 5 types-pr¢´a, ud¢na,

sam¢na, vy¢na, ap¢na) is air.This is built by mana,

pr¢´a,v¢k-action is due to the middle (pr¢´a).

4. Salila (water with waves)-This is from Sarira (inter-

nal motion or change). Our bodies are continuously

changing in different seasons, so it is called ºar¤ra.

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-6 203

Ir¢ (rasa=fluid) is moving (=sarat ). Sarit¢=moving water

or river. The fluid in motion is next anna-this mixes the

materials for their digestion or further transformation.

5.Agni-This is divided into 5 paºu-

Vaiºv¢nara (man or puru¾a)- This is combination of

materials of 3 lokas of solar system, so is called vaiºva

(=including all). In same sense, man has been called

image of God in Bible, Genesis (1/27).

Aºva (horse) is created from aºru (=tears) of Brahma, i.e.

water like material of galaxy. This is moving force, so horse,

trade winds, or a unit of power in physics is also called aºva or

horse.(¹atapatha Br.13/3/1/1,6/1/1/11 etc)

Gau (Cow) has 3 components-receipt of energy, place

of creation and creation. Thus rays of sun received on

earth are Go (gau), earth is also Go. Human organs are

also Go. Words are Go.(¹atapatha Br.3/1/2/14,6/5/

2/17 etc.)

Avi (Ram)-This is motion of light in straight line. Ram

also attacks in a straight line, so the light energy is

called Avi (=ram). This is protector of earth and gives

green colour to leaves (photo-synthesis).(¹atapatha Br.6/

Aja-This is avyaya-puru¾a which is chain of transformations-

AOmo@{n gÝZì``mË_m(JrVm 4/6). This is consumed for transfor-

mation, so the common animal whose meat is eaten is called

aja. Aja and puru¾a-both are 4 footed. In transformation, noth-

ing new is born-so, it is aja (=un-born).

Gr¢ma-ara´ya-Its physical meaning is given in pur¢´as-

Animals of forest-¹v¢pad¢ (=feet like dogs), dvikhura

(with two hoofs), hasti (elephant), v¢nara (monkey),

pakºi (birds), audaka (water animal), sar¤s¨pa (reptiles).

These are indicative of class of animals and similar ob-

jects in space and within human body. In Quran also

bakar also means goat, ram, and even other 4-footed

like cow, camel.

P¨¾d¢jya-P¨¾ad=curd, solid matter. Planets upto mars

are solid, so the zone is called ocean of curd (Bh¢gavata

pur¢´a, part 5). Two life giving materials are created by

soma (spread of energy)-O¾adhi are plants which wither

away after fruits and vanaspati which give fruit every

year. O¾adhi are dominant in soma, vanaspati in agni

which retains the form. O¾adhi has 4 types of elements-

dadhi (curd) is solid body, it is ºukra as cell form as

start of life. This is matter of earth. Solar rasa (fluid) is

madhu (honey). Essence present everywhere is gh¨ta

(butter). Am¨ta is the root rasa of parame¾°h¤-

From that Sarvahut yaj®a §k and S¢ma appeared. From

that, Chhandas (Atharva, meters of space and words)

appeared and then Yaju¾a was created.

Meanings of vedas is explained in about 50 ways. The

triple divisions of different kinds are vedas, the root or

base remains after division-that is Atharva. So Tray¤

(=triple, veda) means 4 vedas (see pages 9-22 for de-

tails). It does not mean that §k, Yaju¾, S¢ma were cre-

ated in that order and Atharva was last. In a single verse,

so called first §k veda

Atharv¢ (sage,fixed frame-Atharva veda as foundation).

Son of Atharv¢ was Dadhya¬ (sage, solid planets like

curd-size of dadhi-sea in Bh¢gavata) who burnt first fire

which destroyed V¨tra (Asura king, darkness due to

round cover) and its pura (town or any formation).

In this verse, Chhand¢nsi (plural of chhanda) has sev-

eral meanings. Chhanda is defined in many ways in veda

and pur¢´as. Vedic examples are given below-

Branches of Vedas-Branches of vedas are varieties of

elements in world. Meaning of Yaju has been explained

218 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

avi (ram, light rays) were created.

These have been explained in verse 6 under chhanda-

paºu. Ubhay¢data=Teeth on both sides-upper and lower

jaws. Jaj®ire=were created (verb form of yaj®a). J¢t¢h

=born.

¹atapatha Br. (4/4/5)-Graha-vij®¢na-Br¢hma´a (=ex-

plaining science of planets) gives the cosmic meaning of

the paºu of teeth on single or both jaws. There are 40

graha of 6 types-up¢mºu, antary¢ma, ºukrap¢tra,

¨tup¢tra, ¢graya´a-p¢tra and ukthya-p¢tra. Here, graha

is a pot which holds (=graha, graha´a=holding) soma

(dispersed material). Planets also are holding the matter

dispersed in solar system, so they are grahas. Up¢mºu

graha receives incoming pr¢´a-giving rise to aja (goat)

moving ahead with head high. Antary¢ma graha gives

pr¢´a, out going pr¢´a produces avi (ram) which fol-

lows others and keeps its head low. Energy flow of sun

is ºukra-graha, the brightest planet is also named ºukra

(venus). That is store of Indra (radiation) from which

man is formed. So man controls other 4 animals. Gau is

made from 3 grahas-¢graya´a, ¢ditya, ukthya. ¡ditya is

field of sun, its store places are ¢ditya-graha (¹atapatha

4/3/5). ¡graya´a-graha (4/2/2) controls all anga

(organs).Ukthya (¹atapatha 4/2/3) is source material

of solar system in 6 zones (Va¾a°k¢ra) as 6 ¨tu (also

meaning 6 seasons). K¢´²a 4 of ¹atapatha Br. describes

all 40 grahas. §tu graha of 12 types create aºva with

teeth on both jaws but single hoof. Gau has teeth on

lower jaw but hoof is divided into two. Man, Gau, Aºva

give birth to progeny only once in a year, but aja, avi

give birth 3 times a year-like crops of food grains. This

is general classification of beings on analogy of animals

and men. 40 and 12 grahas are given in the verse below

from §k. Verses quoted at pages 13, 47 from §k men-

tion Atahrva repeatedly, here s¢ma has been mentioned.

This is just to indicate that all the Vedas were created

service for which there is fight for reservation. However, due

to vested interests, the professions became hereditory. There

is motivation and natural efficiency in family businesses which

has maitained Indian society in over 1000 years of foreign

rule. Now, it is seen only as a cause of social rift. There are

many qualities due to birth in a family of particular caste, and

caste by birth has justifications given in vedas and sm¨tis. It

does not mean that castes are good or bad. Each caste name

indicates a good quality-Br¢hma´a=knower of Brahma,

Kºatriya=Protector (tr¢´a) from injury (kºata),

Vaiºya=Manager of society (viºa),

pr¢´a from ears and fire from mouth were born.

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-12 231

(Alternate)-From mouth Indra and agni and from pr¢´a

air were born.

Chandram¢=Moon. Manaso or manasah=From mind.

J¢tah=born. Chakºoh=From eyes.

S¦ryah or s¦ryo=Sun. Aj¢yata=were born.

¹rotr¢d=From ears. V¢yu=Air.

Pr¢´a=Energy, life, driving force.

Cha=And. Mukh¢d=From mouth.

Agni=Fire, a body of mass or energy (Agri=First born).

Explanation-Mana starts from the primordial desire of

Puru¾a to create. It was called ºvovas¤yasa (living in

vacuum) mana. Then it was field of galaxies in visible

universe and its image our galaxy-both with 1011 par-

ticles. Image of both is human mind with same number

of particles 1011. Thoughts are fluctuations in that field

caused by motion of moon. That field itself is calm and

tranquil like moon. So moon is born of mana.

Sun is centre of 5 stages of world tree-1.Svayambh¦

(whole world), 2.Parame¾°h¤ (galaxy), 3.Solar system,

4.Zone of moon orbit, 5.Earth. It is also source of light

for both lower and upper worlds. Light is means for

seeing so sun is from eyes of Puru¾a. Eyes are called

akºa which means axis also. Sun being at centre of cre-

ation process and source of life on earth is also the axis.

Ears-This is organ of hearing. Sound wave comes

through air to our ears and carry the wave energy. Thus

air and pr¢´a (energy) were born from ears. Motion

aspect of air is specifically called marut also. Sound from

all directions.

232 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

come to ears, eyes can see only forward. Thus direction

also are created from ears (next verse).

Mouth-This is source of food for body and source of sound

for outer world. Thus mouth is source of creation.

Indra-Creation started from energy spread everywhere

called Indra, which is in vacuum also-

ZoÝÐmX²F$Vo ndVo Ym_ {H$ÄMZ (F$H²$.9/96/6)As it is in º¦nya (vacuum), it is ¹una. In popular word it

is ¹unasira. ¹una means dog also as it enters vacant

house. As king also, Indra is ¹un¢s¤ra as any property

without ownership vests in king.

ewZ§ hþdo_ _YdmZ{_ÝÐ_² (F$H²$.3/30/22)As learnt in modern physics, all matter particles are

waves of energy locked in a boundary. Thus all forms

are from Indra enclosed in boundary (m¢y¢)-

is start of creation as blocks of matter or energy. Spread

in space is soma. Thus the 5 stages of world tree are 5

agni. Among them, last three-Sun,moon, earth have

mixed effect-so they are called tri-n¢-chiketa

(chiket=distinct)-

nÄMm½Z`mo o M {ÌUm{MHo$Vm: (H$R> Cn.1/3/1)Earth as densest last stage is specifically agni. First 8

dh¢ma are agni. In Indian hemisphere, India is first from

equator, so its ruler is Agni. This was source of food for

world, so it was called Bharata (see pages 116-118).

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-12 233

Thus Indra and Agni-both are mouth or source of cre-

ation.

§ta is dispersed matter without boundary or centre. Satya

is within a body with a centre. Spread of ¨ta is called

¨tu. This means season or zones of solar system having

similar temperature etc. Samvatsara is time of 1 year

when earth moves around sun in its curved orbit. It is

also the sphere around sun whose boundary is reached

by light from sun in 1 year. This is solar system, divided

into 6 zones like 6 seasons in 1 year.

wise he is not tied to any place. The king also, stops his

journeys, tax collections, wars etc. so that cultivation is

not hampered. Physical activity of human beings is re-

extended in space. For solar sphere, north pole is called

Kadamba and south pole kalamba. On that analogy,

anchor of a ship is also called kalamba (column) as it

goes down. The port town is also kalamba (Colombo in

Prior to yuga of Devas starting with Sv¢yambhuva manu

in 29,000 BC (see pages 89-95). V¢yu pur¢´a (31/3-5,

29) tells that there were Y¢ma devas who created the

system of yaj®a. There were three groups among them-

Triptimanta, Tvi¾imanta, and Brajakula. Triptimanta were

in 3 sub-groups-Ajita, Jita-Ajita, Jita. Jita group had 12

branches of 12 kal¢ (arts), Tvi¾imanta were rulers and

Vaiºya (traders, cultivators) and workers were Brajakula.

These tribes later on became Ma´ij¢, divided into 4

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-16 245

groups-12 S¢dhyas (like Brahma´as), 120 Mah¢r¢jika

(Kºatriya, rulers), 64 ¡bh¢svara (Vaiºya) and 36 Arti-

sans Tu¾ita of 2 groups-Ap¦rva, Pratir¦pa. Ma´ij¢ were

centered in China. Language of China with symbols for

each word started by Brahm¢ and grammer explaind by

B¨haspati still exists.

Santi-Are. P¦rve-In east, in beginning.

Explanation-(1) Yaj®a-This can be defined as prodution of

desired objects in a cycle (pages 18,28). Aja of 4 feet is se-

quence of 4 yaj®as, used for next stages. The control by con-

scious puru¾a is ºiro-yaj®a (head)-5th stage. Practically culti-

vation is the main yaj®a which sustains people. This is in cycle

of solar year (samvatsara), so samvatsara is called yaj®a

(¹atapatha Br.1/2/5/12, 2/2/2/4,11/1/1/1,etc.). The

samvatsara zone of sun (sphere of 1 light year) is place of

creation in space, so that too is yaj®a. Food produced from

cultivation is used by men, who do their works in daily,

weekly, monthly or annual routine. Works by individuals is

consumed by factories, institutes, society etc. for their yaj®a.

Finally, al these contribute to the running of the country. This

is the real meaning of worshipping yaj®a by yaj®a.

(2) Yaj®a can be classified in many ways. There are

many divisions of 5, so yaj®a is called P¢¬kta (in 5s).

Eternal yaj®a of nature can be classifed in 5 classes-

1.P¢ka-yaj®a, 2.Havir-yaj®a, 3. Mah¢-yaj®a, 4.Ati-yaj®a,

3-Chhandom¢ stoma-24(g¢yatra),44 (tri¾°up), 48 (jagat¤),

Mah¢vrata-25th stoma, Sarva (all) yaj®a stoma

(4) As per constituent material, yaj®a is of two types-

1.Consumption of soma (by agni), 2. Chiti (arrange-

ment) of agni.

248 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

Both yaj®a in nature are related to the samvatsara agni

which is Praj¢pati. The soma from parame¾°h¤ is con-

sumed by it. That soma is of 4 types-r¢j¢, v¢ja, graha,

havi. The yaj®a of these are havir-yaj®a (darºp¦r´am¢sa),

graha-yaj®a, v¢japeya, r¢jas¦ya.

(5) Practical meaning- All these yaj®a are classified

as per zones of space and creation processes there.

Yaj®a in human body is centered around 5 sheaths of

body having 5 chakras in spinal chord as centre. Physi-

cally, personal and family yaj®a are daily and weekly

acts-like cooking and eating of food, cleaning house,

serving neighbours and animals, guests etc. Social yaj®a

is production of grain, materials, their supply etc. Na-

tion yaj®a is collection of revenue and running the state

which is r¢jas¦ya as may be seen in example of

Yudhi¾°hira in Mah¢bh¢rata. Aºvamedha yaj®a is free

movement of aºva or free transport and communication

in country. Within human body, it is un-blocked flow of

pr¢´a as it was done for Putra-k¢me¾°i-yaj®a for birth of

children to king Daºaratha-V¢lm¤ki R¢m¢ya´a,

b¢lak¢´²a. In that aºvamedha, no horse had moved in

India with army support, it was for re-juvenating the

body of king who was of 149 years of age. V¢japeya is

to increase the strength of country-by education, pro-

duction, military might etc. in modern terms. Haviryaj®a

is production and supply of food.

apple. Anna is any matter of consumption.

Another aspect is that the created world is not different

complete and almost independent of outside world.Viº

means to enter an enclosure.There are 13 levels of viºva.

252 Vedic View of ¹r¤ Jagann¢tha

So viºva indicates number 13. Higher worlds are suc-

cessively 107 times the size of man-earth, solar system,

galaxy, universe. Due to proximity of moon, sphere con-

taining moon’s orbit is another level of world. Starting

from root universe, there are 5 levels (parvas) of world

till earth, called reversed tree. Human vertebra has 5

chakras being images of these 5 levels (page 43-47).

Thus, man is 6th viºva. 7 viºvas smaller than man are

successively smaller in ratio of 105 Limit of resolution of

human eye is about this part of man-size, so 10 5 is

called lakºa (=to see). Thus, 13 viºvas are depicted as

reversed tree. Seven lower worlds are--

1.Kalila Cell 10 -5 m

2.J¤va Atom 10 -10 m

3.Ku´²alin¤ Nucleus 10 -15 m

4.Jagat Particles 10 -20 m

5.Deva-d¢nava Quarks 10 -25 m

6.Pitar Proto-type 10 -30 m

7.§¾i(4) String 10 -35 m

Jagat is functional,creative,conscious element. As a

functional and conscious element, it is called puru¾a.

Puru¾a is of four levels. Undifferentiated, uniform, ho-

mogenous source of world is called Par¢tpara (Para=

highest, Par¢t=beyond that, beyond description). That

is called rasa. It is same in deºa (place), k¢la (time),dik

(direction), so called trisatya.. In modern astrophysics,

6.Puru¾a-S¦kta-verse-19 253

this is called perfect cosmological principle, i.e. universe

as a whole is homogenous (same density everywhere),

isotropic (same in every direction), steady (same in all

times), in so-called Steady-state-theory.
