I got curious about how this whole cosmos formed and continues to form.
Why it came to existence if answered would be a bonus. But how we as a diverse civilization came into being, be all these animals, plants, and us as humans. We see so much diversity. Diversity that is ever-evolving. Curious, I happened to come across this one shlok which quenched my thirst to a great extent, or at least for now before I got curious about other new questions. This Shlok hit me and explained the whole process of the formation of the cosmos:
सत्वरजस्तमसां साम्यावस्था प्रकृतिः प्रकृतेर्महान् , महतो हंकारो हंकारात् पंच तन्मात्राण्युभयमिन्द्रियं तन्मात्रेभ्यः स्थूलभूतानि पुरुष इति पंचविंशतिर्गणः ||
-Sankhya Darshanam 1.26
The balance of the Three energy states -Satva, Rajas, Tamas is Prakruti. Turbulence in the Prakruti in the vicinity of Devine paves the path for the existence of mahat or intelligence, from mahat comes ahankara or ego, ahankar gives birth to 5 tanmatrayien and 2 types of indriyaan: Karamindriyaan-5 and gyaanindriyaan-5 and 1 wishful heart. These 24 sthoolbhoot/elements and 1 Purush are what the whole cosmos is all about.
