Who are we? How did we come to be? What is this universe? How did it come to be? What is the cause of our happiness and sorrows? Could we be liberated from our sorrows? Human curiosity to know the answers to such questions has a long history. The dawn of classical philosophy in the East began when the opening sentence of Rigveda proclaimed that the “fire is the greatest teacher of truth.” The East then sought to know the mystery of matter and consciousness by understanding the nature of fire, which emerges through a complex relationship between the matter and the energy, and between the corporal and the spiritual. They observed that fire could consume all the conscious living beings and turn them into subtle elements that rise-up and blend into the vastness of the sky. Similarly, a tiny seed of peepal could grow into a huge tree by drawing only the energy and the subtle elements from its environment. Thus, many deep mysteries of life should be revealed through the understanding of the rhythmic dance between the matter and the energy at the subtle level. The East, in its intellectual hay days, developed three major streams of highly developed and organized philosophies. The first is the bhakti (devotion) stream in which a person seeks to find the solutions to his or her problems by surrendering to a person, ideology, or God and then worshipping and fully devoting to it. The second is the yoga (integration) stream in which a person sees all the contradictions as opportunities to unite them and create ever new and magical creations. The third is the samkhya (pure knowledge) stream in which looking every visible entity as an integration of many-many invisible entities, laws and rules that make their integration possible. The unified philosophy comprising all three is the matter of interest of this book, and is named as trimurti darshan or trimurti philosophy.
