Understanding the scriptures of Veda, upanishad, Ramayana, Mahabharat, Bhagavata or purana's is no easy task as we all know.
Even more danger lies in mis-understanding them without the help of right Guru.
Just wanted to high light one point that I had heard during the Pravachana from Sri SatyatmaTeertharu. All these scriptures have one intent that is tell about the Hari Sarvottamtva and Vayu Jevottamtva.
At any point one sees the anything that does not align with this in the scriptures way to resolve it is:
1. If it stating something opposing the Hari Savottamtva or Vayu Jevottamtva then treat it as done for the Aasura mohana (confuse the evil forces, demons)
2. If the same event is quoted little differently in different scriptures like places, persons or time change etc then treat it as would have happened in different Kalpa's.
I dont know for sure but Kalpa is time for one complete cycle of Bramhanda coming in to existence and getting destroyed.
There have been several kalpa's and all the main Eeethehas[History] repeats itself.
Creation of Bramhanda during every Kalpa is compared to tree and Bhagavanta himself acts as a seed for it. As quoted in the Bhagvad geeta 7.10 Sloka. There is also term Avyakruta named for the seed. Seed has this property that it leads to tree of the same type.
If you look at the VishnuSahasraNama one could identify the Avyakruta.
I wonder in our Mother earth the seed and trees are here to tell us about his leela of creation of the universe.
If you see any mistakes in my understanding please let me know.
