Evolution is a climb-up for all organisms to a more advanced level of acclimatization to cope up with the forwarding competent time. It is a way of innate modernization occurring in all, attributing to their survival instincts. In a way, it is a motion from lesser to greater complications and it is occurring involuntarily along with the ageing of the universe.
But in spirituality, the word ‘devolution’ is more significant than ‘evolution’. Devolution means to decline from a higher to a lower level of effective power or vitality or essential quality. It is a devolvement from outer world to the inner self.
As evolution of the ‘physical world’ is uncontrollable, devolution of the ‘mental world’ is to be achieved in order to strike a balance.
The uncontrolled physical expansion of the universe is witnessed by everyone only in their mental plane. Significantly, on a serious scrutiny, we could realize that without a mind the so called magnificent elaboration of the universe is inconceivable and hence insignificant; at least for a being sans mind.
This is why the masters say external world is a projection of the inner mind.
Devolution of mind means retrieval to its core. The pure mind is the one which is detached from all externalities. It is devoid of all identifications, thought waves and fluctuations. Always, it will remain that which is that.
Mind will become a dry seed and while retrieving into such a state through devolution it will become a revolution.
From evolution (something) through devolution (the process of becoming ‘nothing’) the mind will become a revolution (everything)!
