Pervading the entire science of Vedic cosmology is the understanding that the universe is created and maintained by personal activity.
This means that behind all apparently mechanistic laws and events there is one or more persons who enact and administer the laws, and control all universal events..
Every universe is covered by seven layers—earth, water, fire, air, sky, the total energy and false ego—each ten times greater than the previous one.
There are innumerable universes besides this one, and although they are unlimitedly large, they move about like atoms in You..
The cosmology of the Vedas speaks of the cosmos as Father Sky (Dyaus Pit ṛ) and Earth (P ṛ thiv ī ).
In other texts the cosmos is divided into three realms:
At the basis of these ideas is an early Hindu philosophy called S āṃ khya, which means "counting." In the sense that its aim is to enumerate everything in the universe, it could also be called a cosmology.
Vedic cosmology is one of five primary topics addressed in ancient Sanskrit histories known as Puranas.
This includes ,(1) universal creation by the Superconsciousness (Vishnu), and (2) subsequent creation by Superhuman beings (chiefly Brahma).
