The Three Big Bangs

The First Big Bang

The first or causal big bang is depicted in the above picture of Shiva as the burst of thought in the bliss of Sat-Chit-Ananda. The hair flying out and rays represent God’s creative thought bursts. This initial burst of God’s thought results in the emergence of three Mahashaktis. The three Mahashaktis divide and Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Saraswati, Laxmi and Kali emerge. The first big bang is followed by a second big bang which creates living entities without material bodies from its placid pranic energy. The second big bang is also the biological big bang without the material body. Biological entities of a divine nature (Sapta Rishis, Indra, Surya, Varun, Vayu and Agni) are created without bodies.

The Second Big Bang

The second or astral big bang is depicted above as the blueprints of living entities emerge from Sat-Chit-Ananda (in his universal form). Mahakali, Mahalaxmi and Mahasaraswati are represented as beings at the astral level without physical bodies. The second big bang is followed by the third or physical big bang. This is the big bang that the physicists of the material world talk about.

The Third Big Bang

The third or physical big bang is depicted above as the Shiva Nataraj where Shiva is dancing with Damroo (drum) in one hand and fire-flame in another surrounded by a circular ring with flames all around the outer perimeter. The Damroo (drum) means creation. The flame in the other hand means death or destruction of creation. The fourth hand is saying do not worry, it is only play (leela). The ring of fire is the third big bang that the physicists refer to.

All of this happens in Sat-Chit-Ananda at the very will of S. The discussion of time relates only to the creation. Time is a dimension of creation. S is beyond time and is timeless. These three lokic (in Sanskrit it is called the energy of Sat-Chit-Ananda or Tri-Lokas) big bangs are due to the Brahma (means to expand and contract) aspect of God or Sat-Chit-Ananda. So that is the total picture which physicists have yet to understand. Brahma is the creative aspect of God in the Vedas. In the Vedas Brahma’s wife is Saraswati or Sarada.

Shrutis

In the second big bang the conscious entities without physical bodies dwell in an astral world. The means of communication in the astral world is called “Shrutis” which is the pranic and intelligent means of communication with mental-telepathic, audio and visual communication. This is the Divine Being’s way of communication. Our astral beings do not need books or papers. Think of futuristic cell phones where text messages are stored on nano-material-particles and the nano-cell-phones are very small indeed. The nano-phones are later injected in our optic nerves for communication. It is not only a paperless but an invisible electronic environment. That technology is not far away in our material world. The Vedas are not printed books. They are Shrutis which are stored in pure pranic (consciousness) currents. In deep meditation these stored data are downloaded to our prana. Books are insufficient, incomplete and subject to interpretations.

Brahma Consciousness

Remember that the VKY practice is to establish your consciousness in the medulla oblongata in a breathless (do not hold the breath, practice will get you there), peaceful, loving, anandopranic state. That allows the entry of the Brahma consciousness at the 7th Chakra. After that God takes over and becomes your Guru and companion. All these practices are to get you there and help you stay there. So you perform the VKY steps only when you cannot maintain contact with the Guru Chakra or sixth chakra (medulla oblongata). When you do get there, you stop the practices and just stay there and all things will be revealed and added unto thee. The Witness and union with God. Like a drop of water merges into the Ocean from which it originated.
