Re: The Truth About Brahman
pranam
There is another dominant view in Hinduism, which is non-hierarchy based. According to this Brahman is one among equals. Or, we can say, like one among the many "parallel processors" of Reality, one among the Twelve Adityas the children of the Whole, Aditi.
In this view, clearly more near to Hindu ethos, it is the Harmony that rules, not any Hierarchy. Every God here can be Infinite. Some finitely infinite, others infinitely finite. You cannot take one out of them out of the equation. What I mean here is, for example, the existence of Shiva necessitates the existence of Narayana, and vice-versa.
regards.
Things to remember:
1. Life = yajña
2. Depth of Āstika knowledge is directly proportional
to the richness of Sanskrit it is written in
3. Āstika = Bhārata ("east") / Ārya ("west")
4. Varṇa = tripartite division of Vedic polity
5. r = c. x²
where,
r = realisation
constant c = intelligence
variable x = bhakti
