-- *Mar*The Age of Theism
Education started as Theism, in the belief in God. When one looked at nature, at a tree, plant, mountain or waterfall, one searched for the Gods there. One ardently and sincerely wanted to know by feeling. Automatically nature became God. Education was searching for and feeling God or seeing everything as a creation and manifestation of God. Seeing was coordinated with breathing, smelling, sensing and feeling, creating various images of God. One teamed up with nature to live. One served nature, the sacred God and Nature (God) served him and he derived strength continuously from nature. One experienced diverse manifestations of nature and as a result there were simply Gods by crores in number. Each person evolved his/her own God. In each person dozens of Gods sprouted. Each God was a chapter in the study of nature, by feeling nature. Smelling and hearing and listening, automatically became feelings. Tunes, music, songs and poems sprouted. The Gods were given human Avatars. Prayers to God were prayers to Nature. And nature became one person. The Biosphere became one organism emotionally as breathing, smelling, sensing and feeling created the natural bond fueled by feeling. God or nature conversed. A Hindu conversed with nature continuously. When a deviation in nature from the common characteristic features of nature was found, a Temple was constructed. Each Temple God represented specific features particular to the area where the Temple was constructed. The Temple became the destination for Pilgrims. The pilgrims breathed, smelt and felt the particular characteristics of the Temple God there. Freedom to nature there was freedom and authority to the God of the Temple there. Each God has a separate name, Srisila Mallikarjuna, Lord Venkateswara of Tirumala, Amareswara of Amarawathi,etc, etc.Some Gods represent Vishnu the administration side of nature and others represent Siva the transformation side of nature. The basic characteristics of nature, the creation aspect represented by Brahma as per the Jnana of Saraswathi, the administration aspect as represented by Vishnu as per the wisdom wealth of Luxmi, and the transformation aspect of nature as represented by Siva as per the manual of Durga, were represented in each Temple specifying a particular aspect. The Temple architecture was emotion based Architecture, representing the specific characteristics of nature of the area where the Temple was constructed. During the age of Theism, nature thrived and prospered. Nature was God and sacred. Today nature is not sacred. It can be abused continuously and called the destruction economic activity.
