Articles: Devotion | In quest of infinity - 9 - Prof. venkata ramanamurty mallajosyula
| |
The more I see of the amazing manner in which the Universe was brought into existence and allowed to grow, the more does Chapter 10 of the Gita appeal to me. It is all just mind-boggling. In this context, the following quote from one of the poems of William Blake is pertinent. He says:
To see the world in a grain of sand,
And to see heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hands,
And eternity in an hour.
In the Universe, we have the unbelievable situation of Infinity hiding itself in the smallest conceivable particle [or is it string?]. More about all this next time. Meanwhile, have fun reflecting on all this and the wondrous way in which the Lord works.
Often I recall what Swami once said: “Man knows nothing but pretends he knows everything; God knows everything but acts as if He does not know anything!” If only we spend some time thinking about that! But then we are so frightfully busy, which makes me thank you specially for taking some time off to read this issue. See you again next month. Meanwhile, may God be with you. Good luck and Sairam.
