in ancient Vedic science ultimately can be associated with the three-in-one selfinteracting dynamics of the unified field in Maharishi Vedic Science and Technology (1). In the theoretical developments mentioned earlier concerning the origin of the universe, there also are three fundamental issues emerging: what is the cosmological origin of order, of dynamism, and of mass? These three fundamental issues are beginning to match the three fundamental forces of nature of Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas extensively referred to in Vedic science. On the gross physical level, these fundamental forces can be related to the principles of attraction (gravitation), activity (inherent dynamism), and inertia or resistance to change (mass, Higgs fields). They also can be associated with creation, maintenance, and dissolution operators conducting all change in nature (1).
In the gross material domain of conventional space-time, Sattva can be related to the attractive force of gravity, and the gravitational constant. It also can be related to the 3rd law of thermodynamics: decreased activity associated with decreased temperature in material systems, resulting in decreased entropy, a fundamental negentropic process in the maintenance of order in nature. Rajas can be related to inherent dynamism, and possibly the Planck energy and light-speed, associated with the creation operator. Tamas can be related to inertia or resistance to change, the concept of mass and Higgs fields that counteract change, and possibly Planck's constant. The three values from which the hypothesized most fundamental unit of ordinary physical space-time, the Planck length (10-33 cm), is derivedìgravitational constant, light-speed, Planck's constantialso appear to corre spond on the gross material domain with the fundamental forces of Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas (1).

This universe is symmetrically equivalent to this person. As much number of specific components are there in man that much number of specific components are present in the universe" As much number of components are there in the universe, that much are present in man.
