Several Hindu

Hindu

Hindu refers to an identity associated with the philosophical, religious and cultural systems that are indigenous to the Indian subcontinent. As used in the Constitution of India, the word "Hindu" is also attributed to all persons professing any Indian religion...

 scriptures are devoted to describe various unknown theories and facts in general, specific and logical aspects, as the precise scientific descriptions are not available. Circumstances are also defined and explored by these recorded scriptures to comprehend the cause or origin of their appearance (or emergence), including the consequences.

Bhagavad Gita

Bhagavad Gita

The ' , also more simply known as Gita, is a 700-verse Hindu scripture that is part of the ancient Sanskrit epic, the Mahabharata, but is frequently treated as a freestanding text, and in particular, as an Upanishad in its own right, one of the several books that constitute general Vedic tradition...

 is the most acceptable philosophical texts available in the history of mankind which defines circumstances as a universal phenomenon

Phenomenon

A phenomenon , plural phenomena, is any observable occurrence. Phenomena are often, but not always, understood as 'appearances' or 'experiences'...

; and it is the tendency of (only) human mind to delineate as favorable or unfavorable else the circumstances reflect the continuous changes in the elements of the universe.

Definition

General (Veda)

"Physical appearances which provoke the 'object under effect' to react or respond". It is the unexceptional universal phenomenon of the existence to drive the nature. For living units, circumstances are also said to be the consequences of the deeds in general. It is a continuous process and leads to the fact-Circustances affect elements and elements affect circumstances.

Specific (Puranas

Puranas

The Puranas are a genre of important Hindu, Jain and Buddhist religious texts, notably consisting of narratives of the history of the universe from creation to destruction, genealogies of kings, heroes, sages, and demigods, and descriptions of Hindu cosmology, philosophy, and geography.Puranas...

)

"Circumstances are the delineated consequential effect of 'the time-element-energy'". It may also be defined as the time-element-energy phenomenon and leads to the fact- Elements emerge from circumstances and circustances emerge from elements. Moreover, according to puranas, delineation of circumstances is not possible as it is the ongoing phenomenon, however, the conscientiousness at certain incidents induced human mind to delineate in the way they are perceived which is further stored in the memory.

Logical (Bhagavad Gita

Bhagavad Gita

"Organized ceaseless spontaneous 'irreversible and interminable' universal phenomenon affecting, involving and applicable to all the elements in the universe". According to the scripture, circumstances follow observable fact modify-appear-disappear. Further, circumstances drive elements and elements drive circumstances and therefore, the role of mind is insignificant to define or demarcate favorable and unfavorable (circumstances).

Materialization of circumstances needs three factors:

• Time

  Time is a part of the measuring system used to sequence events, to compare the durations of events and the intervals between them, and to quantify rates of change such as the motions of objects....
  
  
• Element

• Energy

These three factors are the fundamental requirements for the circumstances to become apparent and provide the effect in the universe that may be major or minor depending on the quantitative involvement of the elements with energy, and the duration of the time.

Classification

Circumstances may be spontaneous (self-driven or natural) or contrived (unnatural) where planned situations are made may be for experimental or for any other reason (e.g, politics). Contrived or 'unnatural circumstances' are more or less similar to 'situations' unless the impact is at the universe level which is almost impossible. Further, circumstances emerge in an organized way at the level of the universe and most of the commotions in the universe are unknown, which gives the reason of its difficulty to acknowledge uncountable incidents.
