Acharya Prashant addresses the statement, "Brahma grows by Tap," by explaining that "Tap" here relates to desire. Desire is the act of making the impossible happen. Since the impossible cannot happen, what appears to be happening is a mirage or a chimera. Brahma itself cannot grow, take shape, expand, assume names, move from one thing to another, or become measurable. Desire is Maya, and Maya is what makes the impossible appear to happen. This raises the question: for whom does Brahma grow? It does not grow for itself, as Brahma has no need, capacity, limit, or obligation to look back at or reflect upon itself. The speaker clarifies that the "growth" of Brahma means the formless assumes a form, and the complete becomes incomplete. This process is what desire is all about. The fundamental desire, which is Maya, is the power inherent in Brahma. This desire causes Brahma to first "grow" into something subtle, then into gross material, referred to as "Annam" (food), and from that, all the various universes arise. This entire manifestation is a result of the initial desire. Subsequently, the desire to break free from the net of mortality and become immortal arises, which is the desire to return to the formless, complete Brahma, thus completing the cycle. The entire curve is the movement of Maya or desire. This entire cycle begins with a fundamental desire, a primitive tendency that is not sharply expressed. This tendency then takes mental and material shapes, which multiply and diversify into the many universes. These universes are nothing but multiple webs of death. The desirous one, caught in these self-spawned universes, then struggles to break free. The speaker likens this to a spider that builds a web and then takes it back into itself. Desire creates worlds with itself at the center, and then, finding nothing in those worlds, it becomes dissatisfied and aspires to be relieved of them. Since we have chosen to be born into this world of action, we cannot avoid it. Therefore, the right action is to desire rightly, to make the best of a bad situation, and to justify our birth by pursuing the right actions that lead back to immortality.
