Humans Beings

(definition of human being)

Who is a human being... what is the definition of human being... define human being and so on.-----Human beings are the last stage in the manifestation built by God. This is primarily related to the solar system with Sun forming the core of the planetary system.

In the cosmic system as understood by human beings... the entity of a human being is the pivotal point. Unless and until one manifests the form of a human being... every evolutionary stage is but an interim phase in the cosmic life cycle.

It is only as a Human Being that one reaches the end of cosmic life. It is only as a Human Being that one can gain enlightenment and finally salvation moksha मोक्ष in Hinduism. The manifest form of a human being is the highest stage that can be reached in the evolutionary system for it is only as a Human Being that the soul atman within us comes back to its pristine cosmic glory.

It is only as a Human Being Gautama गौतम became Gautama Buddha गौतम बुद्ध, Mahavira महावीर gained his real self and finally emancipated himself from the circle of life and death, and Jesus Christ gained enlightenment and finally released himself from the shackles of manifesting life again and again.

It is only as a Human Being Prophet Mohammed gained his wisdom and became a man god in his lifetime. Amongst all the fascinations associated with human beings... it is amazingly true that as a human being also there are about 1.1 million types of manifestations. And what does this mean?

Before a living form reaches the stage of human beings it has already lived about 7.3 million life forms. Out of a maximum of 8.4 million manifestations that are required before one reaches the end of cosmic life... As a human being we are required to pass through a maximum of 1.1 million manifestations. It is rather unbelievable yet true!

Does this mean that after reaching the stage of a human being... one need 1.1 million manifestations in the routine to gain absolute wisdom and reach that stage of enlightenment and finally salvation? Yes, it is so!

The wisdom contained in the Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता, the doctrine put forward by Lord Krishna भगवान कृष्ण in the battlefield of Mahabharata महाभारत explains the crux of human life. The knower of Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता becomes the knower of all. Having known Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता one reaches stage of enlightenment forever! The doctrine of Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता teaches one the true essence of life. And what is this essence of life?

The essence of life contained in Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता explains the crucial relationship between the soul / atman / आत्मा and the human being. Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता makes it clear that it is the soul /atman / आत्मा within the body which has manifested the body and not vice versa. The body being only a garment for the soul / atman / आत्मा within... it is the soul / atman / आत्मा which is on its cosmic journey.

The moment human beings realize the crux of Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता... gaining enlightenment is not afar. Rather one reaches the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi निर्विकल्प समाधि. It is the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi निर्विकल्प समाधि reaching which one can have a dialogue with God on one-to-one basis and that too permanently.

Reaching the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi निर्विकल्प समाधि is the goal of every spiritual seeker. Beyond the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi निर्विकल्प समाधि there is nothing else required to be learnt by human beings? One becomes practically omniscient reaching the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi निर्विकल्प समाधि.

There are about 6 billion human beings in the world. The cosmic goal of all human beings is the same. In whatever stage of manifestation (amongst the 1.1 million manifestations) ... it is for human beings to decide when and how to proceed towards the kingdom of God.

Reaching the end of cosmic journey... gaining enlightenment and finally salvation means reaching the kingdom of God! Having gained enlightenment... the need for going to the heaven ceases to exist! Heaven and hell are interim stages in the cosmic system where our soul / atman / आत्मा resides unless it gets matching parents to conceive on Mother Earth.

It is absolutely clear that no human being can directly either go to heaven or the kingdom of God. The domain of heaven and hell and also the kingdom of God is open for soul / atmans आत्मा only. In the physical manifest form of life as a human being or any other form... any wishful thinking of becoming an immortal does not exist in the cosmic system.

In the bodily form no human being can ever reach either heaven or the kingdom of God. Only after human beings gain emancipation that the liberated soul / atman / आत्मा gains foothold in the kingdom of God. This is not a surmise... this is the essence of Bhagavad Gita भागवद गीता, the doctrine put forward by Lord Krishna भगवान कृष्ण in the battlefield of Mahabharata महाभारत.

The cosmic essence of life for human beings is gaining emancipation at the earliest. It is only human beings that can gain access to the kingdom of God. No other form of life is competent for that. Only as a Human Being can one reach the end of cosmic journey... the 8.4 millionth manifestation!

The stages of heaven and hell are interim stages. They have never been places of permanent abode for the soul / atman / आत्मा within our body.

We also need to remember that the form of human beings is the last manifest stage in the cosmic life as we human beings know it. All souls' atmans आत्मा within the gravitational pull of the solar system have the form of human beings as the highest manifest stage in the cyclic things of life.

It is but possible that in other solar systems where life exists... the form of a snake may be the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life cycle. Similarly on other life sustaining planets in various other solar systems spread across the Cosmos... the insects may form the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life cycle.

The form of a human being is but efficient to gain wisdom and finally emancipate from the cycle of birth and death. It need not necessarily be the same on other life sustaining planets in different solar systems across the Cosmos. They may have different manifest forms as the highest stage of life unlike the form of human beings.

The prime reason why human beings are not permitted to travel away from the gravitational pull of one solar system to another! Whatever be the development of science... unmanned space ships can definitely travel to the other end of cosmos but the journey by human beings would be limited to the confines of the present solar system.

Hopping from one solar system to another by human beings is just not permitted by God Almighty. Truthfully spirituality neither desires it. Reaching the end of the cosmic life is possible for all human beings... We need learn the cosmic wisdom to do so. Becoming a Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or prophet Mohammed is the goal of every human being.

Stating otherwise... every human being has the capability of becoming a Mahavira महावीर, a Gautama Buddha गौतम बुद्ध, Jesus Christ or prophet Mohammed! In the last above 150 years two persons have reached the stage of enlightenment. They were Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa श्री राम कृष्ण परमहंस and Maharishi Ramana महर्षि रमन.

The essence of life as a human being is liberating our soul atman residing in our heart for ever from cycle of birth and death. The moment our soul atman reaches the 8.4 millionth manifestation... it steps into the kingdom of God for ever. The kingdom of God is a point of no return. No soul atman can ever escape the kingdom of God for manifesting life again. It is just not permitted nor is it necessary.

Normal human beings on Mother Earth can always invoke the power of the liberated souls from the kingdom of god for their blessings and grace. Every liberated soul atman shall manifest a life form again only when the dissolution of the present Cosmos occurs and starts a new cosmos with a big bang.

Glory is to human beings... the highest manifest stage in the cosmic system. The earlier we decide to reach the end of the cosmic life... the better!
