respected sir

i feel in a different way. the whole world ( including
the sentient and nonsentient) can be bifurcated in to
trivias as sthula suxma and karana) ( ref thaithreeya
upanishad- boo - the material part - buva: the field
of vayu - ( thoughts- vital) suva: the self

here i would like to point out ( idham vishnur
vicakramE thretha nidhathE padham ) this metephor had
become the legend of vaman avatar

regards 
parakaalan
