The
story goes back to the time of the Big Bang. God Almighty of the cosmos
explodes himself and all atmans souls get scattered all over the Cosmos (the definition
of God is covered in various Essays on my homepage). Thus starts the journey of
Atmans souls ... every atman soul has to manifest a body to purify itself ...
a total journey of 8.4 million manifestations at the most ... the total Cosmic
life span of 96.4 million earthly years.
The
process of big Bang is beyond the control of God Almighty ... the prime reason
why we call the whole system as Anadi (without a beginning).
Big Bang occurs ... all atmans souls get scattered ... a stage comes when the
Cosmos starts to shrink back ... the time of the dissolution (occurrence of pralaya
as per the scriptures) ... at this point whatever be the stage of manifestation
by an Atman ... all atmans souls get liberated (all Jiva attain Moksha) ... the
purpose of the cosmos having been completed ... it again reduces back to its original
size ... the size of half a thumb.
This
ball of the size of half a thumb is what we call God Almighty in its pristine
beauty ... the cluster of all purified atmans in the cosmos! Great ... isn't it!
This
Cosmic energy the size of half a thumb ... something with cannot be conceived
by anybody ... unable to contain itself explodes scattering all Atmans across
the Cosmos. and thus starts a new Cosmos.
Whenever
quoting Bhagavad Gita always quote the exact shloka number - for e.g IV/7 etc.
We Realize God because every atman the soul within from the day it separated from
its base longs to re-join the same. It is not the physical self which realizes
God ... it is atman the soul within which gets purified fully and comes back to
original form. This Atman ... having nowhere else to go ... goes back to Baikuntha
... the abode of God Almighty. Unless one prays to God and burns out his Karma
... the purification of Atman gets stalled.
You
are born a human being ... the last stage of manifestation ... as only as a Human
Being can one Realize God. The senses within a human being bloats our Ego ...
we start comparing ourselves with God. God Almighty has got nothing to do with
the Cosmos thus created. It is only a Dhrista onlooker! It does not the require
worship from anybody whatsoever.
Any human being wanting to join back to the source need to worship God without
which our atman the soul within can never get liberated from the cycle of manifestations.
As a human being ... do we care for an ant before stepping over it unwisely? Yet
... God does care for all Human Beings by giving one an opportunity to absolve
ourselves of all sins by offering Prayers. In the mighty Cosmos ... what is the
value of a human being!!

I would
be highly obliged if you could enlighhten me on the subject as to in the first
place Why Did God Create This World? Why is there evolution & dissolution of this
world. I have read the Chapter 7 of the Bhagwad Gita which deals with the above
issue but the ignorant being that I am I could not understand the essence of what
Shri Lord Krishana says to Arjuna. In addition to the above, why is it that we
can Realise God only by remebering him? Did God create this world with the human
being only so that he has someone to worship him?
