PHRASES IN THE GITA - 92
अव्यक्ताद्व्यक्त यः सर्वाः प्रभवन्त्यहरागमे ... रात्र्यागमे प्रलीयन्ते । (अध्याय ८ - श्लोक १८)
அவ்யக்தாத் வ்யக்த யஹ ஸர்வாஹ ப்ரபவந்தி அஹராகமே ... ராத்ர்யாகமே ப்ரலீயந்தி (அத்யாயம் 8 - ஶ்லோகம் 18)
Avyaktaad Vuakta Yah Sarvaah Prabhavanti Aharaagame ... Raathryaagame Praleeyante ... (Chapter 8 - Shloka 18)
Meaning : At the dawn in Brahma Loka , in the morning of Brahma , all the lives , which were in unmanifested state , spring out , get manifested . All the lives return back to the unmanifested state , a sort of Unconscious state , at the dusk of Brahma's day .
Let us try to understand the intent of this statement in three steps .
One : - Our daily Night and Day ... We get up from , we are awakened from sleep at the onset of Dawn . Sleep is a sort of Unconscious state . We remained lost in sleep . We remained all alone , into our own , unconscious of our physical body , unconscious of the world around . Sleep is akin to death . The word used in Malayalam for waking up is "Unarunnu" , i . e . regaining consciousness . Rising up from a state of unconsciousness , unconscious about the body , unconscious of the world around , unconscious of the ego blasted 'Me' , is waking up . We return to the same state of sleep or unconsciousness by the fall of night .
Two : - Death and rebirth ... We reach the unmanifested state on death . We get manifested again through rebirth . Death is like our daily sleep . Absence of consciousness of the body (There is no physical body) , absence of consciousness of the world and its beings (the world can not be perceived without physical senses in a body) .
Three : - Srushti and Laya ... Creation and dissolution ... All of us , all the lives , the whole creation springs from the state of Laya into life , into a state of consciousness at the dawn Brahma's Day . All the lives return back to the state of Laya at the onset of Dusk of a Brahma's day .
In all the three instances , the same lives reappear again again from the state of unconsciousness , sleep or death . The same lives reach back to the state of unconsciousness in all the three instances described above .
Three : - Srushti and Laya ... Creation and dissolution ... All of us , all the lives , the whole creation springs from the state of Laya into life , into a state of consciousness at the dawn Brahma's Day . All the lives return back to the state of Laya at the onset of Dusk of a Brahma's day .
In all the three instances , the same lives reappear again again from the state of unconsciousness , sleep or death . The same lives reach back to the state of unconsciousness in all the three instances described above .
