एकं सर्वगतं व्योम बहिरन्तर्यथा घटे । नित्यं निरन्तरं ब्रह्म सर्वभूतगणे तथा-अहो निरञ्जनः शान्तो बोधोऽहं प्रकृतेः परः ।

Vedanta-Sutras-Sri Bhashya of Ramanuja [English Translation]

By on

We know from Scripture that there is a Supreme Person whose nature is absolute bliss and goodness; who is fundamentally antagonistic to all evil; who is the cause of the origination, sustentation, and dissolution of the world; who differs in nature from all other beings, who is all-knowing, who by his mere thought and will accomplishes all his purposes; who is an ocean of kindness as it were for all who depend on him; who is all-merciful; who is immeasurably raised above all possibility of any one being equal or superior to him; whose name is the highest Brahman. And with equal certainty we know from Scripture that this Supreme Lord, when pleased by the faithful worship of his Devotees–which worship consists in daily repeated meditation on Him, assisted by the performance of all the practices prescribed for each caste and âsrama–frees them from the influence of Nescience which consists of karman accumulated in the infinite progress of time and hence hard to overcome; allows them to attain to that supreme bliss which consists in the direct intuition of His own true nature: and after that does not turn them back into the miseries of Samsâra.

Sanat-sujata explained how to avoid death in Mahabharata

सनत-सुजात-Free from all kinds of duality, it is manifest as the universe and all-pervading. Men of learning say that it is without any change, except in the language used to describe it. The Soul is the cause of my birth and procreation. I am the warp and woof of the universe. That upon which I rest is indestructible. Unborn I move, awake day and night. It is I knowing whom one becometh both learned and full of joy. Subtler than the subtle, of excellent eyes capable of looking into both the past and the future, Brahman is awake in every creature.

বৈদিক কবি প্রকৃতির জীবন্ত ও দেবোপম শক্তিগুলির পূজা করেন বটে, কিন্তু তাঁহার এই অদ্বৈতধৰ্ম্ম একটু বিশেষ ধরণের। ইন্দ্র, বরুণ, অগ্নি, সূৰ্য্য এই সকল দেবাত্মা বটে, কিন্তু ইহাদের ব্যক্তিগত স্বাতন্ত্র্য তেমন সুস্পষ্ট নহে—ইহাদের পরস্পরের মধ্যে আকার-বিনিময় ও পরিবর্ত্তন চলিতেছে। এই উষাই সুৰ্য্য, এই সূৰ্য্যই অগ্নি, এই অগ্নিই বিদ্যুৎ, এই বিদ্যুৎই ঝটিকা এবং এই ঝটিকাই বৃষ্টি; সকলই পরস্পরের মধ্যে যুক্ত, মিশ্রিত এবং ওতপ্রোত। ইহার মধ্যে কিছুই স্থায়ী নহে। মনুষ্যের মধ্যেও স্থায়ী ব্যক্তিত্বের ভাব নাই—বাহ্যজগতেও কেবলি পরিবর্ত্তন। এই ভাবটি বেদেতে যাহা বীজরূপে অবস্থিত, তাহা ব্রাহ্মণদিগের পুরাতন দার্শনিক কাব্যসমূহে বৰ্দ্ধিত ও পরিপুষ্ট হইয়া ক্রমশঃ বৃক্ষরূপে পরিণত হইয়াছে
