Hello,

I came across this verse while reading Vishnu Purana. This verse describes what is the supreme abode of Vishnu who's often praised in Veda.

-

Vishnu Purana - 6.5.66-68

Because during his time, Bhagavatam was considered as an Advaitik scripture.

'Presumption to support AMT'
:Roll:

Certainly! Gaudiya Vaishnawa-s chant 'Hare Rama' mantra. This mantra is a miracle! I personally experienced ecstasy of this Mantra.

Markandeya 108 dasa ,

Hello, would you give me some thoughts on a verse of Vishnu Purana?

"तन्नताः स्म जगत्स्त्रष्टुः स्त्रष्टारं अविशेषणं " [Vishnu Purana...

Namaste,



Why to jump to immediate conclusions with our imperfect senses ? Purana-s mentions the purport of Shruti perfectly. So if Purana-s state Brahman is Nirvishesh, then we'd accept...

Susita, is it really important to know ?

In the first place, Jagat never came from Brahman.

I can not explain that. I've always been felt that existence of something is impossible, before reading any scripture. Cause being one can not have power to multiply or divide itself. It's...

The world is an illusion. The only reason to believe so in Advaita is that something doesn't exist. The most impossible thing is that something exists.

Hello, AMT was created when there seemed to be total destruction of AIT. Though it's a new story, the core idea remains same and the conclusions as well.


Here are the chief results of nine...

"Antiquity & origin of Hindu word"

I think there are no authentic strong proofs of Hindu word as a foreign word. That's just a (so called) theory with speculations and presumptions. What appeals to me more is that Hindu word is...

This is the Sanskrit Verse-

अहं ब्रह्म परं धाम ब्रह्माहं परमं पदम् ।
एवं समीक्ष्य चात्मानं आत्मन्याधाय निष्कले ॥ ११ ॥

This is Atma-Bhakti that is none other than Vishnu Bhakti.

Paradox ! This statement itself is against Anuman. That will make Jiva's bondage state as his real Swarupa?

Hello devotee,

Thanks for sharing these verses. I think Garuda Purana is Sattvika Vaishnawa Purana and interestingly it doesn't match with Vaishnawa Philosophy.

Hello,

What Buddha negated is Anatma which is considered as Atman by us. So negation of Atman and Anatman is the same thing. The real self can not be negated because in Upanishada Atman is said to...

Namaste devotee, I think you've misunderstood the context. The above verses (10-11) you mentioned is the view of Bhagavan Krishna. The verses onwards 19th verse are different opinions of various...

Hello all,
The subject is numbers of tattwa according to Krishna. I'd like to mention it in later post.

I think Krishna taught that all paths are illusions because they're thought by mind. He...

And Purana as well :) However I don't see highest aspect of Advaita in Bhagavad Gita, unlike in Hansa or Uddhava Gita. Uddhava Gita explains Advaita at its best. Uddhava Gita must be considered as...

Hello Avyaydya



Brahman is reality. Do you know what's reality? Do you know why there is something or do you know why there is nothing? Do you think all these things (world of matter) are...

9 PM to 3 AM ... Lord Krishna used to wake up at 3 AM.

You've understood Advaita perfectly. The supreme truth is that you are not 'You' & I am not 'I'.

Hello, whichever theme you'd choose, as per my suggestion it'd be in ORANGE color .

Hello, enlighten us where did Krishna say like this. :)

Creation of something is possible only through time. Time is the cause of the universe & therefore it is said that time is the seed of this universe.

Now the forum looks fantastic. It's fun to use it now. Thank You, admin.

Pranam..Nice article. Just my thoughts.

Vaidika culture was NEVER outside of Bharatavarsha or Aryavarta. It is not like that once all countries were following Vaidik culture but later they gave up...

Namaste,

As I think, only Iskcons alleges that Bharatvarsha refers to whole world. I don't know the exact reason, may be to attract westerners to make them feel that Hinduism is not actually...

PranAm Markendeya



Most probably yes, because we see much differences between Indian and western born Hindus.



They may be advanced but not more than Vaidik culture. Vaidik Hindu culture...

Namaste,

Puranas praises Bharatavarsha as Mokshabhumi and says that even gods wish to take birth in bharatavarsha in vaidik families. Such birth is a sure way to moksha. It is knows as...

According to Puruna, Bharatavarsha refers to India only .. The name itself speaks much. In Sanskrit 'Varsha' means specific region. That means the specific region on this earth.

Hello



They become brahman, that is beyond existence and non-existence. You can neither say they exist nor they don not exist..


Yes, number is infinite! You had better say Jivas.

Just impossible! Adi shankara can't speak against Vishnu Purana ;) , wherein krishna is mentioned as incarnation of vishnu. I think I'd read it, let me see how and where he says it. *Could you please...

Namaste Amrut.

This is from his blog:

"These verses clearly indicate how the sexual act can be utilized for achieving enlightment."

:) It's very surprising. In uddhava, Krishna says to...

Yeah ..

Bhakti is Advaita. Advaita is bhakti. The deity to be worshipped shouldn't be considered different from the self. Vishnu himself is jiva. He's veiled himself by his own maya, yet he's just...

:) Yeah, yet there's something to say :)

Smarta just means that who are adherents of both shruti and smruti. They accept all purana like shiva, Vishnu or devi ganesha purana. Smartism came after shrautism. Before the creation of purana,...

Hello ..


Smartism is the oldest form of vaishnawism. Not my personal view but Vishnu Purana, which is a vaishnawa purana, mentions Smarta sect.

Now you may question who are smarta actually, ...

Hello Viraja..

I'd like to know in which scripture soul is mentioned as having gender. As far as I know, there's one Upanishadik verse wherein soul is described as genderless.

I am looking...

Well, according to me, Vaishnawa means who's a devotee of Vishnu or his incarnations like Krishna, who doesn't see any duality anywhere, has a firm conviction in my mind that all is Brahman ie...

Hello anirudh..

Kasab will be hanging to death, that was also a part of karma... Each and every action is governed by prakriti.. You can't Change fate even a little bit.

Vishn's maya is so...

Hello please read those verses wherein arjuna asks which seekers of moksha gets well versed in brahman.

Worship of nirguna means worship of knowledge, firm conviction in mind that all is Brahman....

Not that god brahma. I said brahma, the highest reality, eternal, omnipresent consciousness, beyond three States ...

Hello friend



Only Brahman exists. God creates, maintains the universe, destroy it these concepts are, in Vedanta, called as 'Upachara' - upadhi. They're not real in absolute sense.


...

Namaste all of you..

Brahman! The truth of reality itself, which is beyond reality and unreality..

I've always two questions. Why something exists and why there's not absolute nothing and...

Hello friend ..




What? Jiva is also mentioned as param brahma. (BP 12.5.11). So such distinction doesn't make any sense at all.

In Vedanta, Brahman and parabrahman are the same things....

Adi shankar is everywhere in hearts of all :)
