Default How Do Hinduism, Buddhism and Sikhism Present The Celestial Universe?

How is the celestial universe - galaxies and solar systems presented in the diatomic religions? What do the diatomic religions say about the universe?

Please, if you can, answer with reference to your respective religious literature.

Thanks

My belief system does not have any literature. There is no language that is up to the task of describing the other side. It has to be experienced to understand. You can use similarities as in totems, but they are just describing the nature of an energy. It is not the actual thing.

Practicing Shaman... quantum physics rocks.

I knew only bout Sikhism..

We believe that the universe and everything we see around us was created by the lord a by the word of "Ek Ingar".

-"Onkar Ada Kathi and".

There are planets, solar systems and galaxies. If one speaks of them, there is no limit, no end. There are worlds upon worlds of His Creation. As He commands, so they exist. He watches over all, and contemplating the creation, He rejoices. Nanak says, to describe this is as hard as steel!? (Guru Granth Sahib Ji, 8).

"For endless ages, there was only utter darkness. There was no earth or sky; there was only His command. There was no day or night, no moon or sun; God sat in primal, profound meditation position. There were no food or sources of speech, no air or water. There was no creation or destruction, no birth or death. There were no continents, regions, seven seas, rivers or flowing water. There were no heavenly realms, earth or nether regions of the underworld. There was no heaven or hell, no death or time ... When He so willed, He created the world. Without any supporting power, He sustained the universe ... He created the creation, and watches over it; His Command is over all. He formed the planets, solar systems and nether regions, and brought what was hidden to manifestation. No one knows His limits. This understanding comes from the Perfect Guru. O Nanak, those who are attuned to the Truth are wonder struck; singing His Glorious Praises, they are filled with wonder." (Guru Granth Sahib Ji, 1035)

Furthermore, "From the True Lord came the air/gasses, and from the air came water. Based on water, He created the three regions (sky/air, land and ocean). In each and every heart, He has infused His Light." (Guru Granth Sahib Ji, 19).


"Jo brahmande soi pinde" "Whatever is in the universe, is in the matter."

There is a link between Buddhism and Science. Ajan Brahm is one of the famous Btish monk (who studied at Oxford when he was a lay person).Please read this article.

Its based on Consciousness. One's Consciousness is viewed as the epitome of the universe. So everything is present within the self. And the experienced universe is a projection of the mind itself.
Shivam is unmanliest consciousness as pure universal being.
Shakthi is experienced universe that is manifest as forms to all the individual beings. All phenomena is the work of Kathi
