Gita Acharan |English

The Higgs field is an invisible energy field that permeates the entirety of space. Interaction with this field gives mass to the subatomic particles. The combination of these sub atomic particles is nothing but the matter we see around us today. While subatomic particles need the Higgs field to have mass, the Higgs field doesn't need them for its existence.

 

This current scientific paradigm will help us understand when Krishna says, "All the world is pervaded by Me in the un-manifested form; all beings dwell in Me and I do not dwell in them (9.4). Nor do beings dwell in Me; behold My divine yoga! Bringing forth and supporting beings, Myself does not dwell in them" (9.5).

 

To make things simple for Arjun, Krishna gives an example and says, "As the wind moving everywhere always rests in space even so know that all beings rest in Me" (9.6). However mighty or destructive the wind or cyclone might be, it is still bound to be in space.

 

He further says, "At the end of a time cycle (๐™ ๐™–๐™ก๐™ฅ๐™–) all beings enter My ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™–๐™ ๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ž (nature); at the beginning of a ๐™ ๐™–๐™ก๐™ฅ๐™– I bring them forth again (9.7). By revivifying My own ๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™–๐™ ๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ž (nature), I bring forth, again and again, all this multitude of beings, all subject to the laws of Nature" (9.8). This is the harmonious creation of the manifested from the un-manifested through the force of Nature.

 

Krishna says, "Nor these acts bind me, for I remain above them,  unconcerned and unattached" (9.9). The key is non-attachment. While we tend to get attached to things or achievements, ๐™‹๐™–๐™ง๐™–๐™ข๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ข๐™– is not attached to his mighty creations. When we take ourselves to be a ๐™ ๐™–๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™๐™– (doer), we are bound by our ๐™ ๐™–๐™ง๐™ข๐™–๐™จ in ๐™ ๐™–๐™ง๐™ข๐™–-๐™—๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™๐™๐™–๐™ฃ (bondage of action) while the ๐™‹๐™–๐™ง๐™–๐™ข๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ข๐™– is like a witness who is not bound.
