If I were to relate the basics of this universe, time, matter and space. 3 things out of this the entire manifestation takes place right? Which God you would relate them to? Bhrama to time, vishnu to matter, space to shiva ? I don't mean this is something which was told already in vedas, But just for an argument sake. :)
We can drop this blog whenever you guys think that this approach of thinking is wrong..!

    Fresh thoughts are always welcome. I definitely think we can relate. Time started for us with creation. So we can associate brahma with time. Matter is what is seen, is required for survival. In this context you may attach Vishnu and the forms as matter. The universe is what is infinite, based on the story of brahma and Vishnu trying to reach head and leg of Shiva, it shows infinity. So you may relate it to Shiva. But someone can relate differently.

    The universe is what - in Sanskrit it is called as "prapancha" - pra+pancha. Pancha is pancha bhoota, pra stands for poshanam (enriching). Universe, Space and Time all are just Adhikarana in Sanskrit - means - "Locus" and /or "Referential points or state". They really don't exist (this is not Vedanta but science). Let me explain this.

    How do you measure time? - based on Sun rise and Sun set (an international clock on GMT etc.). In reality does the sun rise ? or does it set? - so something that appears to be happening from a referential point - the Earth, is taken for all calculations - without which our worldly affairs are not possible.

    The same way space (land) - that is divided into East, West etc. - this is again depending on the assumption that sun raises, etc. 

    So in reality, what really exists ??

Father and son, went to a temple, suddenly son shouted after seeing the pillars of Lions at the entrance of the temple "Run Dad, or those Lions will eat us " Dad consoled him saying "they are just statues and wont harm us" Son replied " if those lion statues wont harm us then how could statues of God give us blessings" The father wrote in his diary... "I am still speechless on my childs answer and have started searching for God in Humans instead of statues. -- A good story which I read today. Not sure whether this has been penned by an agnostic or atheist. But forms a good question for discussion. What do you all think about this?

I have been thinking recently about our state of temples.

I have been thinking recently about our state of temples. They have changed their forms from being cultural and binding factors to just business centres. mostly people who are visiting the temples are doing mechanical things. how can we revive the temples as discussion forums for arts, culture, social responsibilities from being just "transactional" in nature. there are satsangas being organized in the temples, but they just follow the bhakthi movement. how can we revive usage of sanskrit, learning of vedas, and then to create a more responsible generation than ours? ideas are welcome...
