Not a single leaf or flower of last year is there now in my garden. But for anybody visiting me, my garden is as beautiful as ever, exactly as it was last year.
Not a single person who was there fifty years ago is there now at the central circle of our town. Yet the place looks more or less the same.
Nature maintains the world, and the universe, to look more or less the same for a lifetime. Changes are imperceptibly subtle. Sunrise and sunset is the same as they ever were. Even after the earthquake and the tsunami, world looks again the same. The beauty and the ugliness continue.
The maintenance of this universe will have no meaning if there is nobody to perceive it. The living beings, while still being part of the universe, perceive its beauty and ugliness. They are thus destined to be happy and sad. And it is they collectively who maintain the universe. The observed has no meaningful existence, - nay, an existence at all, without any observer.
For who else is the universe maintained? Can the universe exist if there is no observer to observe it? One observer should be there at least outside the universe. Shall we call that God or Reality or Creator?
Or, is it that all perceivers or observers are Him, because they serve the purpose of existence and contributes in its creation by just being?
