Scientists have been talking about a bang, one big one. Now, they are going back on that and say there was a series of bangs.

Take an example, If you ever drive a motorcycle or car without the silencer, without the manifold, you will see it will go "bang, bang, bang," but if you throttle up, it will roar. A roar is a composite expression of many bangs.

The first form in which Shiva arose was as Rudra. He roared; a series of bangs happened because Shakti came and played around him.

Suddenly, what was absolute stillness, broke open into a roar. So, the first act of creation was that of Shakti, not of Shiva.

The basis of creation is Shiva; but the first act of creation is from Shakti.
