Re: The reasons why the Lord creates unlimited universes
Dear Shivani,
Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna! This means that in other universes the souls are far more evolved materially and so proportionately the standards of material creation are increased to the point where Brahma has one million heads. The other universes are proportionately as large as the degree of material opulence available to the souls in those universes.
There is not that much information on other universes except for a few words spoken by the Lord here and there. We are unable to comprehend the structure of even this one smallest of all universes itself! Even Brahma's mind will explode if he tries to figure out how much more complicated the structures of other universes are!
You may see the sacred universe video on Vedic Cosmology made by Sadaputa Das prabhu at youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmeQB2XkyqA">here. This is the first part. The links for the other 5 are also there in the playlist.
But one thing is clear -- Ultimately the whole purpose of all the universes is an opportunity for us to get rid of our illusion that we are God and realize the truth that we are the servant of the Lord. And that opportunity is right now knocking on everyone's door! So now is really the best of times!
Daaso'smi,
Srinath
