Why Did God Create the World in the First Place? WRONG!! The Beginningless CYCLE of Creation

The sages of ancient India (rishis) intuited that the universe has no beginning or end because it continually undergoes cycles of manifestation and dissolution. The same is true for living beings who undergo cycles of birth, death, and rebirth. Q&A series #19. The rishis understood that the natural word is cyclic: seed - sprout - plant - more seeds. To assume "In the beginning was a single, primordial seed from which all plants arose" is naive. The evolution of plants is much more complicated. Yet, the Bible declares, "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth." If nature is truly cyclical, then this statement also seems naive. According to the rishis, the universe undergoes cycles of manifestation and dissolution. The unmanifest universe exists in a subtle or non-physical form, known as bija avastha or seed state. Many people find it difficult to grasp the idea of an infinite succession of universes with no beginning and no end. This difficulty is largely due to the fact that infinity lies beyond the scope of experience. But the ancient rishis had no such difficulty - they're called kranta darshis, those who can see beyond, those who can understand what others cannot, those who can grasp infinity. The rishis differentiated between two kinds of infinity, pravaha nityatvam, eternal flow, and vastava nityatvam, true eternality. The truly eternal exists outside the realm of time, that is, it's timeless. Time and change are two sides of a coin. No change means no time. So, anything that changes exists in time, and that which doesn't change at all is timeless. Is anything changeless? According to the rishis, atma, your true nature which is pure, unchanging consciousness, unborn, uncreated, eternal, and truly timeless.
