Age New Spirituality - Inspirational Stories ( Part 110 )

Before going into all these speculations of the ancient Vedic sages, we will first refer to one or two very curious instances in the Vedas. The peculiar fact -- that these gods are taken up, as it were, one after the other,raised and sublimated,till each has assumed the proportions of the infinite Personal God of the Universe -- calls for an explanation. Prof. Max Muller creates for it a new name, as he thinks it peculiar to the Hindus: he calls it "Henotheism". We need not go far for the explanation. It is within the book.

A few steps from the very place where we find those gods being raised and sublimated, we find the explanation also. The question arises how the Hindu mythologies should be so unique, so different from all others.In Babylonian or Greek mythologies we find one god struggling upwards, and he assumes a position and remains there,while the other gods die out. Of all the Molochs, Jehovah becomes supreme,and the other Molochs are forgotten, lost for ever; he is the God of gods. So,too,of all the Greek gods,Zeus comes to the front and assumes big proportions,becomes the God of the Universe,and all the other gods become degraded into minor angels.

This fact was repeated in later times. The Buddhists and the Jains raised one of their prophets to the Godhead, and all the other gods they made subservient to Buddha,or to Jina. This is the world - wide process, but there we find an exception, as it were. One god is praised,and for the time being it is said that all the other gods obey his commands,and the very one who is said to be raised up by Varuna,is himself raised up,in the next book, to the highest position. They occupy the position of the Personal God in turns. But the explanation is there in the book,and it is a grand explanation,one that has given the theme to all subsequent thought in India,and one that will be the theme of the whole world of religions: "Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti -- that which exists is One; sages call It by various names."
