According to Sanskrit Vedic texts: The Primeval man. He was sacrificed, and from his body elements of the natural universe were then created.
In some lineages of Hindu the Dharma, Purusha (sanskritpuruṣa, पुरुष "man, macranthropy", in sutraalso called puṃs "man") is the "world-soul" which pervades the universe. The vedasdeityare interpretations of the many facets of Purusha. According to the Rigvedic purusha-sukta, Purusha was dismembered by Brahma, Vishnu & Shiva -
In the rigveda, Purusha is described as a primeval giant that is sacrificed by the gods (see purushamedha) and from whose body the purushaand the varnas (castes) are built. He is described as having a thousand heads and a thousand feet. He emanated Virat, the female creative principle, from which he is reborn in turn after the world was made out of his parts.
In the sacrifice of Purusha, the Vedic chants were first created. The horses and cows were born, the brahminwere made from Purusha's mouth, the kshatriyafrom his arms, the vaisyafrom his thighs, and the shudra-1from his feet. The Moon was born from his mind, the Sun from his eyes, the heavens from his skull. Indra and Agni emerged from his mouth.
The parallel to Norse ymiris oftenpurushaconsidered to reflect the myth's origin in proto-indo-european-religion.
PURUSHA IN CREATIVE STORY:Purusha is the most misunderstood entity in Hinduism.
We have a grossly distorted concept of Purusha because our concept of Purusha is based on the literal meaning of Purusha (Rigveda 1.10.90). This makes us conclude that Purusha is surreal.
According to Manu Smriti 1.11, Purusha is same as Brahman. This means that Purusha is absolute fact and thus is directly compatible with science.
Purusha (Rigveda 1.10.90) is a symbolic description of the properties of the isometric component of our skeletal muscular system acting as a single unit.
That single unit is what we call Purusha.
It has to be mentioned here that the isometric component controls the isotonic component of our skeletal muscular system that brings about movements. Thus, Purusha, though by himself can't bring about any movement, has indirect control over each and every activity of our life.
We should associate every symbol mentioned in Rigveda 1.10.90 a property of isometric contraction of our skeletal muscular system. We must never take the literal meaning of the Mantras.
DECODED PURUSHA:
Rigveda 1.10.90 - 1:
Literal translation:
Purusha has thousand heads, thousand eyes and thousand feet. On every side of pervading earth he fills a space ten fingers wide.
Interpretation based on Brahma Jnana:
We think with the Unified Skeletal Muscle, feel with it and it facilitates or retards whatever we do. It is the outstanding unified symbol that keeps absolute facts as the center of our entire life.
Rigveda 1.10.90 - 12
Literal translation:
The Brahmana was his mouth, of both his arms was the Rajanya made.
His thighs became Vaisya, from his feet the Sudra was produced.
This is the most misunderstood Vedic Mantra.
The Varnas refer to efficiency our activities. There are four Varnas and thus four grades of efficiency.
We consider eating as an example.
1. The most efficient way of eating would one in which some one else keeps food in our mouth. (Brahmana Varna).
2. It is less efficient when we use our arms to reach our food. (Kshatriya Varna).
3. It is still less efficient when, in addition, we to lean forward using our thighs. (Vaishya Varna).
4. It is least efficient when we use our feet to take a step to reach the food. (Shudra Varna).
Rigveda 1.10. 90 - 14 and Manu Smriti 1.19 and 1.20
According to both of these, Purusha behaves as seven different Purushas, depending on which of the seven locations of it is active. {depending on the point towards which Purusha (Unified Skeletal Muscle) is contracted}.
These seven manifestations of Purusha (Brahman) are Indra, Shakti, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Shani and Yama. This is what we mean when we say all gods are manifestations of Brahman and that all gods spring from Brahman.
PURUSHA AND BRAHMAN:
Purusha has the entire range of the tone of our skeletal muscular system i.e. 0% - 100%.
Brahman has a tone exactly 50%. Thus, Brahman is the state in which Purusha can't felt. Brahman is the ideal state of Purusha.
Thus,
1. Purusha, according to Hindu mythology is a surreal character
2. According to Brahmajnana, it is the isometric component of our skeletal muscular system acting as a single unit

Well the answer to that is the Odyessy or the Trojain Wars.or Panadora's boxanother story is the story of how the earth was made(the Creation Story)!
Amaterasu Omikami created the Earth and everything.
According to a creation story in the Rig Veda, all the matter in the universe was contained in the Purusha. The Purusha engendered the Viraj, which then engendered the Purusha, and then the deities sacrificed the Purusha, thus creating the universe.
One would have to say that Hindus believe their creation story ...
The Hindu creation story, as outlined in texts like the Rigveda and Puranas, provides a foundation for understanding the origin of the universe, life, and humanity according to Hindu beliefs. It serves as a mythological and symbolic explanation of spiritual concepts like karma, dharma, and reincarnation. Additionally, the creation story reinforces the interconnectedness of all beings and the cyclical nature of existence in Hindu philosophy.
In Hinduism, the creation story is described in the Rigveda, one of the oldest texts. According to this story, the universe originated from the cosmic egg, and the god Prajapati is seen as the creator of the world. The creation is cyclic, with periods of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Nasadiya Sukta is a hymn in the Rigveda that explores the concept of creation through questioning the origins of the universe, while Purusha Sukta is a hymn that describes the cosmic being ("Purusha") as the source of all creation and explains the origins of the universe through a cosmic sacrifice. Both hymns are important in Vedic literature for their philosophical and theological insights on creation.
Both the Hindu and Catholic creation stories involve a divine being creating the universe out of nothing, and both emphasize the divine power and wisdom behind creation. Additionally, both traditions hold that humans are a special creation with a unique purpose in the world.
Both the Big Bang theory and the Hindu creation story describe the origin of the universe and all living beings. They both suggest that everything began from a single point and expanded to form the vastness we see today. Additionally, both narratives involve the concept of cycles of creation and destruction.
Some religious stories include the Christian creation story from the Book of Genesis, which describes God creating the Earth in six days, and the Hindu creation story from the Rigveda, which tells of the cosmic being Purusha sacrificing himself to create the universe. In Norse mythology, the world is formed from the body of the giant Ymir, while in the Maori tradition, the Earth is born from the primal couple Rangi and Papa.
Both Hindu and Christian creation stories involve the concept of a supreme being creating the universe. One key difference is that in Hinduism, creation is cyclical and occurs in repeated cycles called yugas, while Christianity teaches a linear progression of creation leading to the end times. Additionally, Hinduism includes multiple deities involved in creation, while Christianity emphasizes the monotheistic idea of one God as the creator.
The Rig-Veda is an ancient Hindu book that tells the story of creation. The primal man was used as a sacrifice for the gods. The gods then sacrificed Perush, thus creating all living things, the heavens and the earth.
Yuga Purusha was created in 1989.
