How was the Universe created?
Why was the Universe created?
What was there before it was created?
Let& #39;s see what the Vedas has to say-
Different religions have different creation myths
Abrahamic religions say God created Universe in 6 days, which fall under the Steady State Theory
But we know the Universe is expanding,
So this theory must be wrong!
And hence the most acceptable theory, is the Big Big Theory

Rig Veda X-129-1 :
नासदासीन्नो सदासीत्तदानीं नासीद्रजो नो व्योमा परो यत् I
किमावरीवः कुह कस्य शर्मन्नम्भः किमासीद्गहनं गभीरम् ॥१॥
There was then neither existence nor non-existence -
There was no air then, nor the space beyond it.
What covered it? Where? In whose keeping?...

There was no air then, nor the space beyond it.
What covered it? Where? In whose keeping?...
Rig Veda X-129-2 :
न मृत्युरासीदमृतं न तर्हि न रात्र्या अह्न आसीत्प्रकेतः Ι
आनीदवातं स्वधया तदेकं तस्माद्धान्यन्न परः किञ्चनास ॥२॥
Neither was there death nor immortality; neither day nor night
Only that breathless breathed by its own nature, apart from it, there was nothing
न मृत्युरासीदमृतं न तर्हि न रात्र्या अह्न आसीत्प्रकेतः Ι
आनीदवातं स्वधया तदेकं तस्माद्धान्यन्न परः किञ्चनास ॥२॥

Only that breathless breathed by its own nature, apart from it, there was nothing
Rig Veda X-129-3 :
तम आसीत्तमसा गूहळमग्रे प्रकेतं सलिलं सर्वाऽइदम् Ι
तुच्छ्येनाभ्वपिहितं यदासीत्तपसस्तन्महिनाजायतैकम् ॥३॥
Only darkness wrapped in darkness there was
All was void cosmic water; by the great power of warmth was born that Unit, enclosed in nothingness
तम आसीत्तमसा गूहळमग्रे प्रकेतं सलिलं सर्वाऽइदम् Ι
तुच्छ्येनाभ्वपिहितं यदासीत्तपसस्तन्महिनाजायतैकम् ॥३॥

All was void cosmic water; by the great power of warmth was born that Unit, enclosed in nothingness
Rig Veda X-129-4 :
कामस्तदग्रे समवर्तताधि मनसो रेतः प्रथमं यदासीत् Ι
सतो बन्धुमसति निरविन्दन्हृदि प्रतीष्या कवयो मनीषा ॥४॥
Thereafter rose Desire in the beginning; Desire - the primal seed and the germ of Spirit
The wise who searched know that which is kin to that which is not
