And our body is a city of senses.
And within this sensory universe,
mechanism, the city of senses, there is a pure awareness.
That awareness is called Purusha.
And Prakruti is creative potential.
And this whole universe is a divine dance of Prakruti in presence of Purusha.
So, Purusha and Prakruti both are eternal, timeless existence.
They were one.
Because of Sattva, Raja, Tamas, these three gunas were absolutely in equilibrium.
But when their equilibrium is disturbed, the big bang happens.
And during that big bang, Prakruti is separated from Purusha.
And first expression is Madh, which is cosmic intelligence.
And intelligence means to put everything in its right place.
That's the glory of intelligence.
Purusha, Prakruti, Mahat, Ahamkar, I am.
That I am-ness is there.
Every creature, every bird has a feeling of I am, I am.
And that eternal I am is existential.
And that I am-ness is called Ahamkar.
And because of that Ahamkar in our body, every single cell has a definite form, definite shape.
