Understanding Hindu Cosmology: The Cycles of the Universe

Understanding Hindu Cosmology: The Cycles of the Universe
This video delves into the intricate connections between cosmology, religion, and science within Hinduism, presenting a comprehensive understanding of the universe and humanity's spiritual journey. Here are the three main points:

Hindu cosmology envisions the universe as continuously created and destroyed in infinite cycles. These cycles are defined by periods known as yugas (Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga, and Kali Yuga), each representing different levels of spiritual consciousness and social order.
This cyclical concept emphasizes the belief that the universe is in a constant state of transformation, with each phase bearing the imprint of its predecessor.

Central to Hindu cosmology is the concept of Brahman, the source of all existence and the ultimate reality of the universe. Brahman embodies fundamental truth and supreme reality, forming the deep metaphysical and philosophical underpinnings of Hinduism.
The different manifestations of Brahman—Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer)—symbolize the cyclical nature and constant change of the universe.

Hindu cosmology distinguishes between the spiritual and material realms, a distinction that forms one of the core philosophical foundations of Hindu thought.
The material realm represents the physical world, bounded by time and space, where the cycle of birth, life, death, and rebirth (samsara) dominates, shaped by the law of karma. In contrast, the spiritual realm is seen as an infinite and timeless reality, the abode of absolute peace, happiness, and wisdom.

This is the interpretation of Hindu cosmology according to just one tradition. It's not "the definitive" statement of Hinduism. There is actually no definitive statement! That's one of the beauties of Sanatana Dharma. If the interpretation in this video puts you off, keep looking. Again: this video is not "wrong"; it's just not the only "right" one. Namaste.

my mind was captivated and signalled so many things: level+spiritual I am so humbled deeply and want to keep listening using my headphones all night while I sleep. What an acquisition of true knowledge. It means it's all within "US HUMANS". Thank you uploader!

Hinduism sums up my own research into reality via science and philosophy. It's fascinating and it's becoming my core beliefs now. I am reading the Upanishards and will go on to the rigvedas. I also enjoy reading all religious text and I think truth is a combination of many of these beliefs but only the oldest forms. Before they were edited. Many uneducated believe their religious text were never edited which is impossible as anyone shall know from the game of telephone. Even if unintentional it happens by nature of reality itself. This is the reason people believe this reality is an illusion. It's not. It's just constantly evolving and changing and that means it erases things that were, including truths. It's inherent to us, to our very DNA as we age they become sloppy and this causes Cancer. It's everywhere and all things and to think "no this book written and rewritten and translated, is precisely as it was" is tantamount to pure insanity.


I beg you my spiritual brothers to use science, history, philosophy and spirituality in your quest for truth. And bring in to heaven what you will, whimsy, love of fantasy, beauty etc. Express yourself fully as it is the divine universe expressing itself through you. Become, become, become what you always were. Always been. Always will be. The eternal aspect. Show us, your fellow aspects of infinity what you represent. So we may commune and debate in the celestial courts outside space time under the guiding wisdom of God, the Brahman. Who we may never interact with directly even as we ascend the infinite ladder of spiritual improvement but is always there. Loving and nurturing as a father and mother. Whose infinite ladder of improvement and love and understanding of all forces good and evil hint at the infinite level of unity grasped within the power of God. Unfathomable.

My good friend read the book called Holy science of Yukteshwar Giri
Kalpa->manwantars->mahayuagas ->kshana
This the descending chronology of time measurements in Sanatan aka Hindu culture..

[project-unifiedfreepeoples]

I once was, yet am no longer. Here today, gone tomorrow. From the formless I was formed, once highly praised, now brutally scorned. I am in all things, all things are in me. I can never die, I am in the stones, the waters, and the trees. I am nothing and everything all at the same time. Bound only by illusions and desires am I.

There is more wisdom & knowledge in the Puranas & Upanishads than any other religious texts…

The fact that they are within “the margin of error” for the creation of the world, the universe, and the earths last great extinction event is absolutely astounding to me

[commonsenselegit]

It's hillarious when western texts teach students that guys like Newton, copernicus etc discovered things like gravity and the earth circling the earth while all of these things in some form were already written in down in Hindu vedas from several thousands years earlier lol. West man

Lord Krishna said, "My Dear Arjuna, Millions of years ago I Instructed this Imperishable Science of Yoga to the Sun god Vivashwan, and Vivashwan Instructed It to Manu, the father of mankind, and Manu Instructed It to Ikshwaku a saintly King of Ancient times ".
Science; Observable, Testable and Repeatable.
The "Horizon" is indeed "Horizontal" and no matter how high the altitude it stays at "Eye-Level". The "Constellations" are "Constant" and the Stars in Heaven are Firm in their Position and Firm in their Brightness. God Created the Firmament to separate the waters from Above (were MahaVishnu naps) from the waters below (The Great Garbhodaka Ocean). Water Aways Finds It's Level, Sea Level. The Whole of this Little 4 headed brahma Universe has an Up and It has a Down. A Dwarf named Vamana poked a hole in God's Firmament with His big toe and the waters from Above came pouring in and Down. Beyond the 360 degrees Antarctica ice-ring lies concentric rings of Lands and Oceans. There are gates in this ice-wall and the powers that be know about these passageways and indeed they use them (Operation High Jump and Deep Freeze). We live inside a Cosmic Egg, which is half full of water(The Mahat-Tatva) . The diameter of this Cosmic Egg is 4 billion miles.

Bhakti yoga is Chanting Hare Krishna and by rendering loving service to Krsna only. Hare Krishna please read HDG Srila Prabhupada that brought Bhakti yoga to America and you will learn the highest and most secretive knowledge that will transform your life. I was a crack addict and Krsna has transformed my life. I no longer need or do crack. My diet has become more vegetarian since Krsna prefers a meatless diet. Nothing could have given me full recovery except Chanting
Hare Krishna
