In the scheme
of my sovereignty nature brings forth everything, moving and unmoving, and keeps the world
going.
A study of the Upanishads will show that Vedanta postulates that the universe is the
result of a gradual unfolding of the creative power inherent in the primordial substance.
In fact, it may be said that the philosophy of Hinduism anticipated the basic theories of
biology and physics. The very approach to things in the Upanishads, the insistence on
adherence to truth and on tireless investigation, is remarkably in the nature of an
anticipation of the methods of science.Truth,
penance, true understanding and purity of life are essential requisites for the revelation
of the spirit within. When thus revealed, he shines spotless and resplendent within
oneself. The seekers who have freed themselves from sin are vouchsafed the vision.

Victory is ever with truth. Untruth cannot win. The path to
the Divine is through truth. He sages with desires quenched walk on that road to reach the
Ultimate Being. Mundakopanishad-III i-6 |
