Background
Comparison of Cosmology and Vedic slokas till now
From the time of Big Bang, at a time of 10-43 seconds, all four fundamental forces (Gravity, Strong, Weak, Electro-magnetic) were supposed to be unified.
At around 10-36 seconds, strong force separates. From 10-36 seconds to 10-32 seconds Universe is supposed to have undergone an Inflationary epoch which expanded it greatly.
During this expansion a sizzling sea of quarks and anti-quarks are formed. Vedas refer to this sea of quark and anti-quark pairs as Varuna.
From 10-32 to 10-5 seconds
From this period of 10-32 seconds to 10-5 seconds, the Universe was a sea of quarks, anti-quarks and gluons, produced from energy. (pair production of quarks and anti-quarks).
Vedas call the quark-anti-quarks as Varuna and gluons as Mitra.
They mostly use varuna as Mitra-Varuna. Varuna is Quark-Anti-quark pair, when Mitra-Varuna is a Meson.
But between this 10-32 and 10-12 seconds, the Universe was not just sea of quarks, anti-quarks and gluons (Varuna and Mitra), but also was oscillating into photons. The photons were becoming quarks-antiquarks or electrons-positrons or neutrinos-antinuetrinos only to combine and become photons again.
Thus Universe at this time was a bunch of energy oscillating into matter forms and becoming energy again.
In fact the Universe was not only Varuna and Mitra (the Adityas), it had very many particles at that time from electrons, neutrinos, positrons, anti-neutrinos to more exotic ones. These were are the Danavas, Nagas etc depicted as ‘descendants’ of ‘wives’ of Kashyapa in puranas.
But all of them were oscillating back and forth into energy or photons.
The Universe was unstable and oscillating from 10-32 to almost 10-12 seconds.
This sloka Rg Veda mandala 1 Hymn 25 refers to this period of Universe when Universe was a sea of quarks and antiquarks oscillating between energy and matter.
In the inflationary epoch, when space (antarikS) expanded, the Universe cooled down and thermalized again. IN this process potential energy yielded Quark-Gluon-Plasma. Universe got filled with QGP at the end of this epoch.
This sloka maps exactly to those events.
The Universal matter was oscillating and the fury of flaming did not allow evolution to proceed. At that time of this expanded Universe, 'Manas' binds the particles on-shell, like a horse to chariot, making them real, whose boundary are the Varuna or Mesons.
These quark-antiquark pairs fall down and form a large 'eye' in the sky. That sets off a yearning for fixed law and order in the Universe. Those that fall down bind the dispersed into a 'sail' in the antarikSa or space (forming the QGP). Time is bound (it starts) with its month and its 12 progenies.
From 10-12 seconds to 377000 years after Big Bang
At around 10-12 seconds, electro-weak force broke into electro-magnetic force and weak-force. This is the story of Indra (baryons) winning over the Vrtra (B-mesons the descendants of Varuna) with Vajra (Weak force that separates from Electro-weak force).
This electro-weak symmetry breaking leads from ‘sea of quarks’ to form baryons, mesons and neutral atoms. When neutral atoms form, the photons (Apa) flow out as Cosmic Microwave Background. This story is depicted as Indra slays the vrtra and lets the Apa (celestial waters) to flow out. This is depicted in the Rg veda Sloka Mandala 1 Hymn 32.
In fact this sloka says Indra is one who drinks soma (strong force) through three kadrukas (quarks).
Rg Veda mandala 4 Hymn 42 says this ruler of quark-antiquark pairs (mesons) combines with Indra (baryons) and establishes the gases in the Universe. It says it does so to assist the Will.
It says ‘unmelted drops of Indra’ flow, when Vrtra is struck. Till that time the three-quarked baryons formed (which are fermions), Universe was occupied by bosons, which were in a melted state (occupying the same quantum state).
It further says that at a time when the Universe was bound, a yajna started which finally led to Indra and Varuna. It says that intoxicated by Soma (strong force), the yajna keeps producing Indra (Baryons) and Varuna (mesons) endlessly and asks for them to be like a ever-milk yielding cow.
From 377000 years after Big Bang to formation of Stars and Life
This is depicted in the sloka Aditya Hrdayam.Rg Veda Mandala 1 Hymn 25 - Summary of the Sloka
This sloka maps exactly to those events.
The Universal matter was oscillating and the fury of flaming did not allow evolution to proceed. At that time of this expanded Universe, 'Manas' binds the particles on-shell, like a horse to chariot, making them real, whose boundary are the Varuna or Mesons.
These quark-antiquark pairs fall down and form a large 'eye' in the sky. That sets off a yearning for fixed law and order in the Universe. Those that fall down bind the dispersed into a 'sail' in the antarikSa or space (forming the QGP). Time is bound (it starts) with its month and its 12 progenies.
All the gas clouds and its whatever dwells in them are bound. Varuna (Quark-AntiQuark pairs) dwells in them. It is the stabled horse in them. The extraordinary knower of the universe knows actions performed and to be done. Varuna creates a great path that carries across life.
Varuna carries the inertness and makes where it is placed observable. Those that are enemies of matter do not threaten those in which Varuna is placed.
Varuna is said to be placed in our womb-chakra (Udara cakra).
Seeking larger and larger eye, like cows seeking pasture, Varuna moves aside as it is sucked out. Newer forms of expressions are continuously brought out as a sacrificer keeps dividing the oblations.
The newer expressions are universally visible, extremely tolerant and charioting/moving. In all these expressions, the fully satiated varuna dissolves into them in the oblation as food and the soil. Varuna now becomes Virtual.
As varuna dissolves into expressions, it rules as the intelligence of all matter and beings in earth and heaven. Varuna’s bond in the simplest or basic matter is the best performing. It is an average tie in the more complex, unrestrained living beings.

What Science says
|
Comparison
|
yaccid dhi te viśo yathā pra deva varuṇa vratam |
minīmasi dyavi-dyavi |
Yac cid
(which/what ever) dhita (placed/bestowed) vizo (class/tribe) yathA (in
which/such manner) pra deva (forth/fore/before the deva) varuna vratam (rule
of varuna) minimasi (amina – unaltering, not transgressing, not
oscillating/fluctuating mina – altering, transgressing, fluctuating,
oscillating) dyavi
dyavi (again and again, repeatedly)
Whatever class/tribe that was bestowed in such manner,
forth/before the matter matter rule of Varuna, alternated/oscillated
repeatedly..
The class/tribe because it existed before the matter rule
(baryonic universe), it is some primordial matter.
Varuna is a half-deva, half-asura. The matter part of
Varuna, the devas, rule the universe.
Before the rule of matter or deva, whatever existed, that was
oscillating or alternating (not stable).
|
Whaever that existed
before rule of Varuna, alternated repeatedly.
|
Essentially same.
|
mā no vadhāya hatnave jihīDānasya rīradhaḥ
mā hṛṇānasya manyave |
arIradhat
– accomplish, perform, make ready (from radh)
Not (mA)
those (no) fatally (hatnave) destroying (vadhaya) accomplish/make ready
(arIradhat) the flame (jih) of invocation (IDAnasya).
Not (mA)
those flaming (hrnanasya) fury (manyave).
Those
class/tribes were unable to accomplish the flame of invocation due to their
fury of the flaming.
Thus the primordial matter were
not able to lit the flame of invocation as they were alternating/oscillating
again and again.
|
Due to high
temperatures, the universe was unable to progress with evolution and it was
oscillating.
|
Essentially same. The
stanza says due to fury of the flaming, the invocation could not be
accomplished.
|
vi mRDīkāya te mano rathīr aśvaṃ na saMditam
gīrbhir varuna sīmahi |
Made of
Earth/Soil (mRdikaya), that (te) Mind (Mano) chartiot’s (rathir) horses
(asvam na) are bound (saMditam), whose expressions (girbhir) varuna (varuna)
is the boundary (sImahi) (varuna binds).
Varuna
forms boundaries in that earth/soil that serves as ‘The Mind’ chariot’s
horses, binding them.
The
soil/earth is the baryonic matter with which the Universe is made of.
The
horses of the ‘Mind Chariot’ are the expressions of matter in the Universe.
The Mind refers to the Supreme consciousness here, which rides on all matter
as a chariot is driven by horses.
Varuna
by forming boundaries in that soil binds the horses.
|
Quark-antiquark pairs
form in that universe.
This period is said to
occur post the Inflationary epoch in the early Universe.
|
Essentially same.The
sloka talks of Varuna (quark-antiquark pairs) as the ‘horses’ of the ‘Mind’
chariot. Science says they formed ‘naturally’.
|
parā hi me vimanyavaḥ patanti vasyaiṣṭaye |
vayo na vasatīrupa || |
Away
(parA hi) from me (me) they free from fury (vimanyavah)
falls/glides/flies/manifest down (patanti) seeking better/welfare
(vasyaiSTaye) Like birds (vayona) to their nests (vasatIr upa)
The
primordial matter that became free from fury glides down seeking better place
like birds gliding down to their nests.
As
Varuna binds a ‘soil’ as a chariot is bound to horse, the class/tribe of
matter that were repeatedly getting destroyed due to their fury of the
flaming, that were not able to invoke the evolution, they lose their fury, glides
down to rest like birds reach the nests.
|
As the temperatures
cooled down the quark-anti-quark pairs form, the energy started settling down
into stable matter.
|
When furious universe
was oscillating. With Varuna (quark-antiquark pair production), those
‘Free from fury”
(vimanyavah) (those which cooled down) started forming stable matter.
|
kadā kṣatraśriyaṃ naram ā varuṇaṃ karāmahe
mṛdīkāyorucakṣasam |
When
(kadA) varuna (Varunam) the sovereign power lords over (kSatazriyam) mortals
(naram) assemble/bring together (karAmahe) the ‘soil/earth’ of (mrDikaya)
large (uru) eye (cakSasam)
When the
sovereign power of Varuna lords over the mortals it assembles the soil/earth
into a large eye.
The
‘Eye’ here is the nucleus of atoms getting created out of large baryonic
matter.
|
The energy settles
down into quark-antiquark pairs forming an ocean of quarks and anti-quarks.
|
The large eye in the
early Universe could be referring to Quark-antiquark pair production in some
portion of Universe post the inflationary epoch.
|
Tad it samānam āśāte venantā na pra yuchataḥ |
dhṛtavratāya dāśuṣe || |
They all
(tad it) equally (samAnam) desire (aZate), their yearnings (venanta) never
(na) fail (pra yuchatah) one who delivers (disuse) fixed law and order
(dhRtavratAya) in the Universe.
When the
sovereign power of Varuna assembles the large eye in that soil, they all
equally desire, their yearnings never fail, for the one who delivers fixed
law and order in the Universe.
The
primordial matter has been unstable and oscillating. When varuna resides in
it, it becomes stable and form a soil/baryonic matter. Varuna drives it to
form a large eye/nucleus in that soil/baryonic matter. They all yearn to
deliver fixed law and order in the Universe.
|
The quark-antiquark
production leads to Universe with fixed order.
|
Essentially same.
|
vedā yo vīnāṃ padamantarikṣeṇa patatām |
veda nāvaḥ samudriyaḥ || |
Weaves/Binds
(veda) those (yo) dispersed (vInam) state (padam) in the Cosmic space
(interstellar space) (antariksena) that falls down (patatAm) Weaves/Binds
(veda) that sail (nAvah) in that
(cosmic) ocean (samudriyah).
The
falling down weaves/Binds those scattered/dispersed state in the interstellar
space.
Binds
those sails in that cosmic ocean
|
The falling
down/settling down Quark-Antiquark pairs
bind/weave the energy spread in that cosmic space.
In the ocean of
energy, matter that sails are formed.
|
Same.
|
veda māso dhṛtavrato dvādaśa prajāvataḥ |
vedā ya upajāyate || |
Binds
(veda) of the month (mAso) of fixed order (dhrtavrato) and 12 (dvadasa) of its progenies
(prajavatah). Binds (vedA) their
distant posterity(upajAyate).
Varuna
weaves/binds the fixed order of months,their
12 progenies and their distant posterity (cycles of years).
Before
Varuna, the Universe was oscillating/fluctuating and not stable. There was no
reference to measure time as there was no order.
Varuna
brings in the dhrtavrata, that is the fixed order in Universe, which provides
reference to measure time, as the progress of Universe is orderly and
evolutionary.
Thus
Varuna is said to ‘bind’ the months, years and cycles of years.
|
When the Universe was
fluctuating and unstable, there was no ‘time’ as there was no order and
reference to measure time.
With Quark-antiquark
pairs, a reference to measure time originated. Since the pairs provided
stability and progress to Universe, they also established the movement of
time as we see it.
|
Same.
|
veda vātasya vartanimurorṛṣvasya bṛhataḥ
vedā ye adhyāsate |
Weaves/Binds
the gas clouds (vatasya) expansion/setting in motion(vartanim) broad/wide
(uru) elevated/high (Rsvasya) large (brhatah)
Weaves/Binds
those that dwell (adhyasate) on it
Binds
the broad, high, large gas clouds expansion, Binds all that dwell in them
|
Quark-Antiquark pairs
not only bind energy into matter form,
But over a period of
time, the Quark-Antiquark pairs (mesons) also bind the protons and neutrons
forming nucleus and hence atoms.
|
Same.
|
ni ṣasāda dhṛtavrato varuṇaḥ pastyāsvā
sāmrājyāya sukratuḥ |
Sitting/sinking
(sAda) excellently (Sa) into (ni) a fixed law/order (dhrtavrato) varuna
(varunah), the stabled (pastya) horse (asva) creates well (sukratu) the
empire (universal empire).
Dhrtavrato
varuna – the fixed law and order varuna
Pastya
asva – stabled horse
With all
the above knowledge as Varuna is the
stabled horse in them, seating an excellent fixed law/order, Varuna creates
well an empire.
Varuna
is the stabled horsed which seats excellently the fixed law and order of the
Universe.
|
The fixed order in
Universe is due to the pairs of Quark-Antiquarks.
In nucleus of atoms
mesons bind the protons and neutrons. It is the ‘stabled horse’ in all atomic
elements.
|
|
ato viśvānyadbhutā cikitvām abhi paśyati
kṛtāni yā cakartvā |
Universe’s
(visvAny) extraordinarily (adbhutA) knowing (cikitVam) (one who knows
everything) infront/before (abhi) see
(pazyati) activities being performed (krtAni) and the activities to be done (kartva).
Universe’s
extraordinarily knowing, sees tasks being performed and those to be done.
Essentially
knows the present and the future
|
The Quark-Antiquark
pairs essentially are present in the Universe from the beginning to end.
The baryonic Universe
is stable and evolving because of mesons.
|
Similar if not same.
|
sa no viśvāhā sukratur ādityaḥ supathā karat |
pra ṇa āyūṃṣi tāriṣat |
There
thus (sa no) well-performing (sukratur) Aditya at all times (vizvAhA) makes
(karat) a good path (supathA), very much (pra) certainly (Na) duration of
life (ayumsi), one that conveys/carries across (tAriSat).
There
thus the well-performing Aditya who at all times makes a good path, certainly
that carries/conveys across the duration of life.
Varuna
is the maker of the path that carries across life. ‘Life’ is not just in
beings but also matter.
‘Ayu’
simply that indicates a cycle of birth and death. All matter and beings
undergo that cycle.
|
The quark-antiquark
pairs are the carriers of ‘life’ of the Universe.
|
Same.
|
bibhrad drāpiṃ hiraṇyayaṃ varuṇo vasta nirṇijam |
pari spaśo ni ṣedire |
Carrying/Bearing
(bibhrad) the mantle (drApim) of
inertness (hiranyayam) varuna (varuno) adorns its (nirNijam) house (vasta)
fully/sufficiently (pari) seated (sedire) in the observer (spazo ni)
Varuna,
carrying the mantle of inertness, adorns its house (wherever it is placed),
making it fully observable.
|
Quark-Antiquark pairs
carry ‘inertness’ or ‘inertia’, which means they carry rest-mass.
Because they carry
rest-mass, they make the Universe observable.
|
Varuna is said to
carry inertness and make beings observable.
Quark-Anti-quark pairs
carry rest-mass and make Universe visible.
|
na yaṃ dipsanti dipsavo na druhvāṇo janānām |
na devamabhimātayaḥ || |
Not (na)
which (yaM) they threaten(dipsanti), those insidious to matter(abhimAtaya),
neither (na) threaten (dipsavo) nor harm (druhvAno) the particles born (jananAm).
Those
insidious to matter (devam) neither threaten nor harm the born particles of
matter in which Varuna resides.
|
The Universe in which
mesons bind the nucleus and form stable atomic elements cannot be harmed or
decayed.
|
Essentially same.
|
uta yo mānuṣeṣvā yaśaścakre asāmyā |
asmākamudareṣvā |
Certainly/it
is said (uta) to be in (yo) the human (manuSa) arrow/line (iSva) of famous
(yazaz) chakras (cakre) unequally (asAmya) our (asmAkam) womb (udara) arrow
(iSva)
Varuna
is said to be in the human arrow/line of Chakras differently (not present in
other chakras) in our Womb chakra. Womb Chakra is called the Swadishtana
Chakra.
Varuna
is in the womb chakra which is the Swadishtana chakra.
Varuna
is said to bring that stability to our Swadishtana Chakra also.
|
Science does not talk
of a binding force that exists in the Womb.
But it says until a fused
sperm-egg binds itself to the wall of uterus, the pregnancy does not start.
|
This sloka indicates
that the forces in the formation of early Universe are somewhat similar to
forces in birth of every being.
Science does not see
any similarities as of now.
|
parā me yanti dhītayo ghāvo na ghavyūtīranu |
ichantīrurucakṣasam |
seeking
(ichantir) large (uru) eye (caksasam), they move (yAnti) like cows (gAvona) near the (anu) pasture
(ghavyutir) of consciousness/thoughts
(dhItayo) of the transcendental
(parA me)
Varuna
moves matter particles in which it resides to thoughts of the transcendental
(consciousness) like cows near the pasture, seeking a larger eye.
Pasture
are the consciousness/thoughts and cows are the matter particles. The cows
grow as they feed on pasture. The matter particles in which Varuna reside
grow as they feed on the pasture of consciousness.
|
The ocean of
Quark-Antiquark pairs grows continuously in the early Universe as energy
becomes matter.
|
Science says the formation
of Quark-Antiquark pairs in the early Universe out of energy is a ‘natural’
event.
This sloka says
Varuna, the one who forms these pairs, feeds on the ‘consciousness’ and
creates these pairs.
|
saṃ nu vocāvahai punaryato me madhvābhṛtam |
hoteva kṣadase priyam || |
With
full (Abhrtam) of Bliss (mAdhv) those expressions (voc) are repeatedly
(punar) brought (Avahai) out/along (yato) as a (eva) Hotr (Hotr) is fond of
(priyam) carving the oblation(kSadase)
As a
Hotr or sacrificer is fond of carving the oblation, the consciousness/bliss/madhv is
carved/divided to new expressions repeatedly brought out.
The
bliss/consciousness is carved/divided and fed into newer expressions or forms
of matter, as a sacrifice carves/divides the offering/oblation and feeds to a
sacrifice.
|
There is no
equivalence to this in science, as science does not recognize consciousness.
|
The sloka claims that
energy becomes quak-antiquark pairs and from there newer forms of matter are
originated as consciousness/bliss is carved and fed more into the sacrifice (evolution
of Universe).
|
darśaṃ nu viśvadarṣataṃ darśaṃ ratham adhi kṣami |
etā juṣata me giraḥ |
Appearance
(darzam) that is universally (vizva) visible (darzatam), extremely (adhi)
tolerant (kSami) and charioting (ratham) appearance (darzam) dwelling in
(juSata) are the expressions (giraH).
The
newer expressions are universally visible, extremely tolerant and
charioting/moving.
|
Newer forms of matter
that are stable, moving keep appearing in the Universe.
|
|
imaṃ me varuṇa śrudhī havam adyā ca mṛdaya |
tvāmavasyurā cake |
In all
this/these (imaM) (expressions) varuna (varuna) dissolves into parts (zrudhI)
in the oblation (havam) as food (adyA) and soil (mRdaya) thou Varuna (tvam)
filled with (avasyurA) satiated (cake)
In all
these expressions, the fully satiated varuna dissolves into them in the
oblation as food and the soil.
|
All stable matter
forms have the quark-anti-quark pairs (mesons) in them.
|
|
tvaṃ viśvasya medhira divaśca gmaśca rājasi |
sa yāmaniprati śrudhi |
Thou
varuna (tvam) rules (rAjasi) the heaven (divas) and (ca) earth (gma) as the
Universe’s (vizvasya) Intelligence (medhira) in the course (sa yAmani) of/
towards (prati) its dissolution (zrudhi)
As
varuna dissolves into expressions, it rules as the intelligence of all matter
and beings in earth and heaven.
|
The quark-antiquark
pairs ‘dissolve’ into these matter forms in the sense they become virtual.
The pion that binds
the proton and neutron in nucleus is a virtual pion.
|
The sloka says
varuna/mesons dissolve into the matter forms and are no longer recognizable
independently.
Science says mesons
that bind the protons and neutron are virtual in the sense though they exist,
they cannot be recognized independently.
|
uduttamaṃ mumughdhi no vi pāśaṃ madhyamaṃ cṛta |
avādhamāni jīvase || |
Best (ud
uttamam) is the (Varuna’s) bond (pAsam) of the simplest(mumugdhino), average
(madhyamam) is the tie (crta) in unrestrained (avAdhamAni) living things
(jivase) (complex beings)..
Varuna’s
bond in the simplest or basic matter is the best performing. It is an average
tie in the more complex, unrestrained living beings.
|
There is no
equivalence of this in science. Science does not recognize an equivalent to
quark-antiquark pairs exist in the wombs are in more complex living beings.
