Tattwa represents the principles that underlie the creation, evolution and absorption of the universe which includes both sentient, and non sentient stuff matter, energy, mind, emotions, intellect, lifebreath, soul, intuition, space, time, consciousness, supreme Brahman etc., in other words, everything there "IS". It, also, is the mathematical and philosophical intelligence governing staticity and movement observed and intuited everywhere. In different schools of Indian thought, the number of Tattwas vary. Tattwa ordains order and chaos. At another level, Tattwa stands for Para Brahma or the ultimate reality. |
