Death is a Systematised Order
An important point that should be noted in this context is, just as God celebrates
the festival of bliss in the form of creation, similarly God also manifests bliss in the form
of so-called death. Hence JEEVANVIDYA defines death as follows :
"Death is a systematised order of God to experience the bliss in the form of continuous
creation and the regeneration process to ensure smooth functioning of universal life.''
Death in fact is a beautiful arrangement. "Whatever is old, should be replaced by
the new'', is an elegant arrangement of God and this beautiful arrangement works all
over in the universe. The snake sheds its old skin and replaces it with a new one, the
trees shed their old leaves and in their place new ones spring up, old people leave the
world and they are replaced with new generation. Thus the only motivation behind this
beautiful systematised arrangement of death is basically to celebrate the festival of bliss.
Unfortunately, Man is not aware of this truth and therefore he considers death to be an
unlucky, inauspicious and unfortunate event, which agonises him. In this context, it must
be remembered that if this systematised arrangement of death did not exist, all the
people in the world would have had to face horrible condition resulting in mourning and
weeping for their entire life time. In the absence of death, people would have had to face
the serious crisis of having only one task of quarreling and fighting throughout their lives.
Just imagine that if our fathers, grand fathers, great grand fathers and the members of
their families were to be alive today occupying the limited space in our small house, what
a terrible and miserable situation we would have been placed in? Imagine how pitiabale
our condition would have been if we were to face such a situation in actual life. In other
words, if God had not devised the systematised order of death, our conditions would
have been really pitiable and deplorable. Briefly, Nature has devised this elegant and
beautiful arrangement of death in order to enable all living beings to enjoy the bliss in
the form of ceaseless creation and regeneration in the process of living their lives. It will
thus be realised that, God or Cosmic Life Force exists everywhere in the universe and
that He manifests Himself at the gross level in the form of a systematised order, which is
efficient, elegant, proportionate, well planned and endowed with inherent bliss.
True Nature of Worship
If we carefully observe this systematised order of God which exists all over in the
universe including the lives of human beings, we will realise, what the true nature of
worship of God is and what constitutes His defiance. When Man performs constructive,
