Others made up excuses to the prophet: "Our homes are vulnerable," when they were not vulnerable. They just wanted to flee. Story of Rama and the story of Moses are of utmost importance to understand the scriptural and human psychophysical paradigm. If you recall from Chapter 8 section 8.2.3.3 a recitation of Ramayana happens before the 4th chapter of Mahabharata the majestic. Similarly, the events of Moses happen in a place called Midyan strife or place of Judgment. Ramayana dwells around a kingdom named Ayodhya not to be won and Story of Moses revolves around a Promise Land that was never attained by Moses before his death section 8.1.1.5. In my analysis, both events are pointing to the same events in human experience. Q [28:22] As he (Moses) traveled towards Midyan, he said, "May my Lord guide me in the right path." In Abrahamic scriptures, it’s the reflection of Moses experienced by Abram. For Sanatana Dharma, it’s the reflection of Vallaba dear one experienced by Rama. Moses and Bhima or Vallaba both is the key to our psychophysical orientation. Before we dive into detail, please read Chapter 11 – alignment of two Sanatana Dharma scriptures; Ramayana and Mahabharata with human life time, and understand the use of “Cave” and its relationship in scriptures and human consciousness. To remind, these two are known as Smrits memories and Vedanta end of knowledge. At this point, I also like to present a human psychophysical orientation or “I” with 4 days or 4 Yugas in scriptural framework. If you recall from the scriptural summaries, Ramayana, Old testament Moses and other books and Quran, the use of ocean and sea which was crossed by Rama and Moses with the help of mainly Hanuman assumed respect and Yahweh I am, respectively. Diagram below sets the basic of alignment of scriptures with human consciousness. I will refer this diagram as we evaluate the scripture and human psychophysical aspects.

This is the story of Jacob’s wrestle with a man at night where he was named as Israel (wrestle with EL) at daybreak. There are a number of aspects in this story requires explanation and careful attention. It’s a summary of realization after landing in promise land. Genesis 32 22-32 22 That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female servants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. 23 After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. 24 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”27 The man asked him, “What is your name?”“Jacob,” he answered. 28 Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God (El) and with humans and have overcome.” 29 Jacob said, “Please tell me your name.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed him there.30 So Jacob called the place Peniel, saying, “It is because I saw God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”31 The sun rose above him as he passed Peniel, and he was limping because of his hip. 32 Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon attached to the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob’s hip was touched near the tendon. The event happened across a river named “Jabbok”. “Jabbok” means “to empty out” in Hebrew and not a physical river as commonly understood (Fig 12.3) but “a river of life” (Fig 12.2) in scriptural paradigm. In the map, you can find a physical river connected with river Jordan. This river is the river to empty life or sufferings in unconscious or in conscious state, respectively. The night here is the night where events of Pharaoh and Moses happened in unconscious state but reflected in conscious state. An unconscious state will never see the daylight and has to wait for the reincarnation or next life. The event wrenched Jacob’s hip and he couldn’t walk is a representation of his realization of what would happen when one wrestles with the creator (EL) and humanity. Reflection and resurrection at this night is the “Lailatul Qadar” the night of destiny in Quran or “Shivaratri” night of enlightenment in Sanatana Dharma. This ordeal
