Creative Unfoldment

Dr. Sanjeev Dev

Dr. Sanjiva Dev

Out of the prison of passive unfoldment travels man to the freedom of creative unfoldment for the sake of spreading both enlightenment and refinement amidst humanity including himself. Creation is construction, creation is revelation, creation is expression and eventually creation is not anti-creation! Creation is two-fold-cosmic creation and artistic creation. Light is cosmic creation while delight is artistic creation and thus human life is an enchanting harmony of the light of light and the music of delight. Man is man because he knows he is a man and not a stone, not a tree nor an animal. The stars and planets are grand, no doubt, but man is grander than the stars and planets because he knows them. One who knows an object is grander than the object itself! Man is born in formation, grown in reformation and culminates in transformation. He is both empirical and transcendental - the two effulgent aspects of creative unfoldment.
