WHICH of these came into being first...

The hen or the egg?

The seed or the tree?

The freedom or the choice?

Egg came first and was fertilized by the seed then everything came into being.


Bhagavad Gita, Ch. 14, Verse 3 "My womb is the great Nature (Prakriti or MAYA). In that I place the germ (embryo of life). Thence is the birth of all beings."

Bhagavad Gita, Ch. 14, Verse 4 "Whatever forms are born, O Arjuna, in any womb whatsoever, the great Brahma (Nature) is their womb and I am the seed-giving father."

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

What about the other two doubts???

Egg came first and was fertilized by the seed then everything came into being.

Well, lets see....sometimes we are spoilt for Choice, that means we have the Freedom to choose.
Therefore Choice came first!!

 

[nannilam_balasubramanian]

There is yet another outstandingly good question too to be posed?

What came into existence, first the "bee" or the "plant"

Which came into existence first the "atoms" or the "quarks"

Ineradicable Inertia ...

But freedom to choose means that freedom comes first

and then you are allowed to choose!

Answer??

 

[renuka]

But freedom to choose means that freedom comes first

and then you are allowed to choose!

I guess I have no Choice but to agree with you.

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

It was the confusing post # 799 on freedom and choice that made me get those three doubts. Can you see the discrepancy now or is it still elusive???

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

Inertia is the right word I was looking for!

Simplified definition....???

It is difficult to stop something on relentless motion and :bowl:

it is equally difficult to set some lazy thing into motion! :bored:

Sir but thats just the theory which was discovered later but that doesnt mean that it actually came only after atoms?

Its like Christopher Columbus came 1st before America when in fact America existed before him.

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

You came first!
I came second!!
X came third!!!
So....???

Thank you dear Renu for giving me

X came third!!!
So....???

No..He/She/They came first
You came second or in the middle
I the main person came last!!

Confused???

Ok explanation is :

3rd person(He/She/They) is called Prathamapurusha in Sanskrit
2nd person(You/You both/You all) is called Madhymapurusha
1st person(I/We/We all) is called Uttamapurusha.

Three doves were flying one behind another. The first one said: two doves are following me. The second one said: one is ahead of me and one is behind me: The third one said two doves are behind me... How come...?

Why can't you give some time to answer, Sir??

 

[Raji Ram]

The dove was replaced by Ant, when I was in college. The Q starts like this: The antz are walking in a straight line...... :flock:

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

COOL! But then there would have been two ducks

behind every flying duck!

they were flying in a circle.

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

No way! :lie:

Everyone knows that doves Do NOT have teeth

The third dove was simply lying through its teeth!!!!!!!
