Lifetime 

Whatever is born will die. It is a cycle of GOD, generation, operation and destruction. It is a dance of Natraja, a Drama of the Almighty that passes through the emotions of joy of birth, struggle of lifetime and sorrow of death. Birth is not the beginning and death is not the end, therefore those who understand the cycle, enjoy the drama of the almighty while playing his/her role. Few become the master of their destiny. 

An Electron has a lifetime of 1/1500 seconds, a Molecule has lifetime of 18 seconds and a blood cell has lifetime of 6 days. Man has average 76Y lifetime that is equal to one day life of the Nature. Nature lifetime is 2.25 million years. 18 years of a man life is a minute life of the Earth. Within 4 minutes of earth life a man completes his lifetime. Earth's hour life is 1075 years, Day life is 25800 years, week life is 187,000 years, month life is 750,000 years, Year life of earth is 9.25 million years and total life time (habitable zone) is 7.5 billion years of which 4.5 billion years have been passed. A lifetime of a man is a moment of recognition of Sun. Sun's day life is 200 million years and lifetime is 10 billion years. And the mother of all the Milky Way is 13.4 billion years old (Big Bang), one day will merge with another nearby galaxy M31 in the constellation of Andromeda and finally will be swallowed up by the Black Hole. The Milky Way is 1 million light years in diameter (our Solar system is 26000 light years from the centre of the galaxy). It takes 250 million years for the Sun and it's family to complete a rotation around the Milky Way. There are 100 billion Galaxies in the Universe identified through telescope technology at present. With the improvement in the technology, the numbers may go up. And nobody knows how many Universes are there? And Hinduism imagine that all the universes stay on the tip of a hair of the Almighty. How big is the God Almighty? Omnipotent. Omnipresent. Omniscient. He is all-powerful, all-present, and all-knowing.

We may be living in present moment but in fact are living in the past of the star lights. Light travels in a year at about 186,000 miles per second. As Moon is just 250,000 miles away, the Moonlight takes 1.3 seconds to reach to us. It takes Sunlight an average of 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach to earth. The light traveling from nearest star Proxima Centauri takes  about 4 years and Bernard's stars light takes 6 years to reach here. North Star light takes 680 years to reach here. The light we see with naked eyes are 2000 years old. We can see light from 2000 years to 10-15 billion with the help of telescope. Therefore, what we see is not the Universe of today but the mixture of different light images of past reached to the earth at this moment. It is a Universe of illusion. Many events already happened in the universe has not known to us. If somebody manage to travel faster than the light, he can see the future events of the Earth (provided he has the eyes to see from there). One may argue that everything is destined. We may feel like a dog running the cart but actually the bulls not visible to the dog are running the cart. However, Human mind can travel faster than the light, has a capacity to see future events. 

The seven sounds in order (सा रे ग म प ध नी सा) (do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do) are the basis of musical progression. From below upward, it is called ascending (आरोह); and from above downwards called descending (अवरोह). The expanding universe after the Big Bang is in ascending mode of the music of the Almighty, and one day it will descend. Just a breath out and in. Our Earth is like a dust size in the Universe and we are the dust particles, running after other dust particles. Everybody is playing their role in the Drama of the Almighty. 

Look at the 9th question of Yaksha to Yudhisthira: What is the greatest wonder? Day after day countless people die, yet the living wish is to live forever. And what is the news? "The Sun is fire, the days and nights are fuel. The months and the seasons constitute the wooden ladle. Time is the cook that is cooking all creatures in that pan. This is the news". Yudhisthira replied.

It is interesting to know that we are made from the objects of the universe, and being a member of the Solar Family, we are governed by the Sun family. Somebody observed that: Sun governs Thymus (growth); Moon governs Pancreas (lymphatic system: digestion, assimilation of food); Mercury governs Thyroid (pulmonary system: respiration, combustion of air); Venus governs Para-thyroids (arterial and connective tissue: blood circulation, tissue building); Mars governs the Adrenals (cerebro-spinal and voluntary muscle: exterior motion, fight and flight); Jupiter governs Posterior Pituitary (sympathetic and involuntary muscle: inner reflexes, physical sensation); Saturn governs Anterior Pituitary (cerebral cortex and skeleton: mind and reason, bone structure); Uranus governs Gonads (genital, vagus: reproduction, creation, higher emotion) and Neptune governs the Pineal. 

We may feel proud of human evolution from primates to modern civilised man, but we have been governed by the electromagnetic cycles of Sun and it's family and are highly connected with Sun family. Our world is a creation of our mind, will expand till the musical progression of ascending cycle reach to नी-सा (si-do) and will revert with descending cycle reaching रे-सा (re-do).

Our lifeline is too short compared to the life of Earth, Sun, Galaxy and the Universe. Just a moment. Therefore, leave the worries and hear Yudhisthira. The Yaksha asked, "What is that which, when renounced, makes one lovable? What is that which is renounced makes happy and wealthy"? Yudhishthira replied, "Pride, if renounced makes one lovable, renouncing desire one becomes wealthy and to renounce avarice is to obtain happiness".

Enjoy the lifetime. Life is light, the Gift of the Almighty.
