From nothingness

===========================

*नासद् आसीन्नो सद् आसीत् तदानीं*
*नासीद् रजो नो व्योमो परो यत्।*
*किम् आवरीवः कुह कस्य शर्म-*
*न्नम्भः किम् आसीद् गहनं गभीरं॥१*
*न मृत्युर् आसीद् अमृतम् न तर्हि*
*न रात्र्या अह्न आसीत् प्रकेतः।*
*आनीद् अवातं स्वध्या तद् एकम्*
*तस्माद्धान्यन् न परः किं चनास॥२*
*nāsad āsīnno sad āsīt tadānīṁ*
*nāsīd rajo no vyomo paro yat|*
*kim āvarīvaḥ kuha kasya śarma-*
*nnambhaḥ kim āsīd gahanaṁ gabhīraṁ||1*
*na mṛtyur āsīd amṛtam na tarhi*
*na rātryā ahna āsīt praketaḥ|*
*ānīd avātaṁ svadhyā tad ekam*
*tasmāddhānyan na paraḥ kiṁ canāsa||2*

*ऋग्वेदं १०-१२९*
*ṛgvedaṁ 10-129*

*there was neither non reality, nor reality then; there was no air or the
ether beyond it; how to know what lay covered by whom and where, who gave it
shelter, whether there were the deep fathomless waters? There was no death
and there was no life immortal, there were no means to indicate day and
night, but the ONE (the supreme) breathed, without air, and apart from
THAT(supreme being) there was nothing else, whatsoever.*

*The above are the first two stanzas of Naasadiiya sooktham, the hymn to
nothingness, and human mind was just pondering over the state of the
universe before it evolved to the present state. Every researcher studying
the theories on evolution, must have started from this exalted gem of human
thought. *

*One should say Human thought never soared to dizzier heights beyond this*
