Secret of Human Incarnation
The human incarnation is an association of God and the human soul in the same human body like the boss with his PA residing in the same house. This is the meaning of Veda “Dvasuparna ….”. This Veda can be also applied to the case of ordinary human being because even in the human body of ordinary human being, two items co-exist which are soul and intelligence as the owner and driver of the chariot. Shankara gives this alternative application of the above Veda. In the Kurukshetra war, several chariots are seen with drivers and owners, which represent the ordinary human beings. In such chariots both the owner and driver are ordinary human beings. Similarly, in the ordinary human beings both the soul and intelligence are the imaginable items of creation. But in the chariot of Arjuna, Krishna (the unimaginable God) is sitting as the driver and Arjuna, the owner is imaginable ordinary human being. This single chariot represents the human incarnation.
