Avyaktam
vyaktim apannam manyante mam abuddhayah |
param bhavam
ajananto mamavyayam anuttamam (Bhagavad Gita 7:24)
Meaning:- Only
Unintelligent think & limit my unmanifest, supreme, incomparable and
imperishable existence to personal manifest human-like form. What is visible is
just an empirical reality. This is because they do not know my transcendental
infinite state. Here Shri Krishna says that his personal form is not ultimate
reality. His Saguna Brahman is posited as a means of realizing Nirguna Brahman
and declare Saguna Brahman to be the empirical/pragmatical reality. The
unmanifest infinite electric energy cannot be compared with lightened bulb and
light in the same way Shri Krishna’s personal form cannot be compared with his
inconceivable space like infinite form/impersonal Brahman.
Reference: -
When Hindus
greet with each other with Namaste its literal meaning is "I bow
to the divine in you". Hinduism have a unique concept of God and
God is considered to be residing in heart of each living being in the form of
soul that’s why Hindus bow down in front of Cows and saints not because they
are God but because they have the presence of essence and divinity as
Supreme God Brahman. Abrahamic religions usually try to find
God elsewhere or in the sky while in Hinduism God is seen in all living beings
and each one is treated equally.
Reference:-
A true devotee
sees Brahman/Supreme soul situated as Atman/soul in all living beings &
also in himself equally everywhere. (Bhagavad Gita 6:29)
Whoever sees
(perceive) me everywhere and everything in me, for him I am never lost, nor is
he ever lost to Me. (Bhagavad Gita 6:30)
Such a yogi,
who serve me through devotional service by perceiving (knowing that) me as only
one situated in all living beings he remains always remains in me in all
circumstances. (Bhagavad Gita 6:31)
He is
considered perfect yogi who compares his own atman/soul/self and sees it as
equal everywhere in every living being both in happiness and distress.
(Bhagavad Gita 6:32)
And of all
yogis, the one with true full faith who worship me with his inner self abiding
in me (Who think of himself in me) he is deemed by me as most devout. (Bhagavad
Gita 6:47)
I am the
atman/soul/self, established in the hearts of all beings, O Gudakesha. I am the
beginning, middle and also the end of all beings. – (Bhagavad Gita 10:20)
Brahman is
knowledge, it is the object of knowledge, and He is the goal of knowledge. He
is situated in everyone’s heart. (Bhagavad Gita 13:18)
Yet in this
body, there is another, a transcendental enjoyer, who is supreme Lord, Super
soul, the supreme proprietor who exists as the overseer and permitter.
(Bhagavad Gita 13.23)
The one who
sees the imperishable Super soul in the destructible bodies of all living
entities as only one he is the one who actually sees (he is
the one who truly knows the truth). (Bhagavad Gita 13.29)
One who sees
the Super soul equally present everywhere, in every living being, does not
degrade himself by his mind. Thus he approaches the transcendental destination.
(Bhagavad Gita 13.29)
Parma Atma/super
soul which is dwelling in the body is inexhaustible due to being
eternal and attribute less. Therefore O son of Kunti this Super soul neither
does anything nor is entangled. (Bhagavad Gita 13:32)
I am seated in
the hearts of all living beings, and from me come memory, knowledge, as well as
forgetfulness. I alone am to be known by all the Vedas, am the author of the
Vedanta, & the knower of the meaning of the Vedas. (Bhagavad Gita 15:15)
Impersonal
God/Brahman is infinite in nature:-
Verse:-
Om Purnamadah
Purnamidam
Purnat
Purnamudachyate
Purnasya
Purnamadaya
Purnameva
Vashishyate
Om shanti,
shanti, shanti
(Brihadaranyaka
Upanishad and Isavasyopanishad)
Meaning:-
‘That’ (The
absolute spirit/Brahman) is infinite, ‘This’ (Soul/Atman) is infinite. From
‘That’ ‘this’ raises and manifests itself. From ‘that’ when ‘This’ is
separated, what especially remains is ‘That’. When infinity is separated from
infinity the remaining is always infinity.
The nature of
absolute reality is like space: -
The self of God
is like space- That which appears like space is God. Whatever that exist is
existing relative to empty/consciousness of space. Consciously Space is
different from light, darkness and dark matter. The existence of light,
darkness and dark matter are relative to a consciousness of space.
Hindu
Scriptures mentions that self of God is like space. ————Man is a creature of
his Kratumaya (क्रतुमयः, will, purpose). Let him, therefore, have for himself
this will, this purpose: The intelligent, whose body is imbued with
life-principle, whose form is light, whose thoughts are driven by truth, whose
self is like space (invisible but ever-present), from whom
all works, all desires, all sensory feelings encompassing this whole world, the
silent, the unconcerned, this is me, my Self, my Soul within my heart.
