Taamas... what exactly it is...

“Tamas”, is mystery in itself. If one understands it, then one understands Lord Shiva. “Tamas” is the necessary rigidity, stiffness which keep energy in form of matter, as tamas is increased huge astronomical bodies take shape and structure.

Tamas is something which keeps people together. It forms organizations, states, countries. It gives shape and size to the world. As Tamas is decreased people move away from each other. Counties break ups, organizations grew smaller and smaller.

Tamas is what keep the sole into bodies, as it decrease sole leaves the body and what is left is tamas. What is left is “Shav”. As tamas is decrease, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, tsunami etc will occur.

Every graha, sun, moon, mars, Jupiter all and everything exists because all have taamas in them. Why Jupiter is in gaseous state and not solid? very less "tamas" is the reason...perhaps.

Source of "Tamas", Is no other then Lord Shiva.

When purusha enters prakriti in desire to drive it, maya manifest. As per current understanding of scientists an Atom is the minutest manifestation of maya. What keep proton and neutrons in form of nucleolus is tamas. What keep electron in its orbit, is rajas. The fact that an Atom is nothing but energy, is sattva.

One need to find answer of few key questions:

Who is purasha?
what is prakriti?

Only then one will understand significance of purasha driving the prakriti. Their is one more view, according to which prakriti drives the purasha. Of course this is wrong and is influenced by asura. When a purasha consider an another purasha as his master then slave purasha is driven by his master purasha.

Lord Shree Rama is the master purasha among all purashas. Untill and unless this is realized by atma; its liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth is not possible. Those who realize that lord has ultimate authority over prakriti and trust his wisdom will be blessed by lord.

Those who consider them as independent from lord and want to enjoy prakriti directly without the intervention of lord, are culprits and will fall to lower realms of existence.
