The Hindu scriptures say that God manifested in the form of a Cosmic Person (Purusha) at the beginning of time. He is the Prathama Jatha, the ‘First-Born’ through whom the solar system and life in it came into existence in a long process of creation. Navajyoti Sri Karunakara Guru (1927-1999), the socio-spiritual reformer and founder of Santhigiri Ashram in Kerala has reinterpreted this creation myth by identifying Manu, the human progenitor, with the Purusha, also called Hiranyagarbha in the Vedas. Contrary to the common perception, the Guru reveals that it was Manu who conceptualized the solar system, and not Brahma, Vishnu, or Shiva, as mentioned in the Puranas.
