The Eternal Return
The concept of "The Eternal Return" suggests that the universe and all events within it are recurring and will continue to repeat themselves infinitely. This idea has roots in various philosophical and religious traditions, including Friedrich Nietzsche's interpretation, where he posits that one should live as if they would have to relive their life repeatedly.
In Hinduism, the notion of cyclical time aligns with the idea of eternal return, where the universe undergoes endless cycles of creation, preservation, and destruction. This perspective encourages individuals to reflect on their actions and choices, emphasizing the significance of living a meaningful life in the face of eternal recurrence.
