Interpretation
The Universe is a wondrous creation of the Creator, the pinnacle of glory of which is the creation of human being & continual evolution of humanity.
It is unfathomable to imagine the complexity of the physical, psychological & emotional evolution of humanity from the simian behavior that he was displaying in his original form.
Mankutimma, the entire saga of the evolution of man is a wonderful study. When you look at this deeply, you will realise that the ecosystem in which man lives & evolves continually is temporal – provinces, states, nations, empires, preachers, religions, languages, philosophies, skills – all go through a cycle of ebb & flow over a period of time…the only permanent feature here is humanity…this is the only feature that never vanishes – it only evolves. No wonder, evolution of man is His pinnacle of glory
