Canto – 9

Brahma is created.  He is located on the Lotus along with the miniscule version of the Jiva Atmas that are to be born, and the radiance/energy that emanates from the Lotus.

It is apparent the creation, as symbolized by the Lotus has all the necessary ingredients required to sustain life.  The seeds are planted by the Paramathma along with the Brahma to nurture, organize and evolve the creation.  The Paramathma provides the ingredients. He provides the rule book and the instruction sets.  Brahma carries these out to perfection.

The forces of magnum opus of creation are also the same forces that influence each of our lives down to the last detail. 

The sequence of events that are to occur are all pre-determined. The experiences are all pre-scripted. 

The objective is to evolve to a state of existence from which there is no return.

How can evolution occur from a pre-scripted sequence of events called Karma? How can we change our Karma to improve upon our experiences. 

The answer is that the karmic events are not to be changed.  These events occur to make our inner self change.  So do not fight these events or try to influence them.  Accept the change that happens within you.  That causes evolution. When we accept the change that is caused within us by these events, we will never revert to our prior, lower state.

Canto 9 is all about the challenges that the “new” Brahma faces in not only trying to understand the environment into which he is born, but also in establishing his identity in relation to the environment. 

Brahma’s condition is very similar to the experience of a new born human child.
