Acintya Bhedabheda Tattva with Radheshyam Das

[@anjaneysharma1724]

Very wonderful explanation. Inspired to read more deeply on it. Amazing to see that although scriptures of all religions very clearly explain the supreme position of God and He himself comes and proves it still there are good amount of rebeliious people not ready to bow down in front of God.

Hare Krishna Pr, Thank you so much for the wonderful class. ys

Thank you for this wonderful video. I have a quick question that I hope that you can help me with. In the very beginning of the talk it was said by Srila Prabhupada that the Acintya Bhedabheda Tattva philosophy is very similar to that of Sri Ramanujacharya's philosophy of Vishishtadvaita Vedanta. Can someone please tell me what the differences are between these two philosophies please?

[@casparbrock7441]

Pardon. At min. 29:15 is a quote from Taittiriya Upanisad 3.1.1. In my Penguin Classics edition of the Upanisads, that which is here translated as the "Supreme Personality of Godhead", is clearly the Brahman. It says nothing about any "Supreme Personality". Here's the Penguin Edition translation: "That from which beings are born; by which, being born, they live; into which they enter when they pass on - seek to know that as brahman." This is not the first time I have found discrepancies between Gaudiya Vaisnava translations and all other scholastic translations of Hindu scriptures. The scholastic translations all pretty much agree, making many of those by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada appear extremely liberal, if not plainly wrong. I like acintya bheda abheda tattva very much, been studying it off and on for 13 years. Can I get some help on this question of translation from a qualified Gaudiya Vaisnava scholar, please? Btw, great video! I like videos that get down into the deeper aspects of the philosophy.

Adwait mai Business nahi ho sakta. Isliy apke liye Dwait hi thik hai. Wese bhi Aapko samaj nahi aayega Hard hai wo 😅

[@gunvardhansharma]

Adwait ke followers are full of hypocrisy. They say they believe in Adwait but then start bashing people. If you believe every person is bramha then the person you are making fun of that person is also bramha. Jab sab me bramha hai to tum kisse lad rahe ho. You are following dwait here. You and me different. If you had really followed Adwait sincerely than there was no reason to write the comment make fun of some one. By using "aapko" you are accepting that there is second person. Bro its too difficult. yes even adwait followers have not been able to understand it.

[@somut2706]

please explain me why many followers of dwaita,advaita and vishita advaita crtitizes or make fun of other philosophy when Hinduisim preaches God or truth is one and there are may ways/paths to reach him. why I raised this point here is i was reading an article written by guruji sridhar gowswami on subjective evolution of consciousness where he says '------if it does not exist, then why has shankara come to preach vedanta". As a beginer to vedanta, I start feeling there is not much difference between spiritual gurus and politicians. one thing good in Hinduisim we have tolerance to accept all philosophies unlike other religion where they are ready to kill their own religion people just because they follow other philosophy proposed by other gurus in the same religion. But days are not far off for Hindus also start hating other philosophies within Hinduisim. Of course I am aware Hinduisim is not a religion. But it is not being accepted even in India itself. Becacuse if you fill any application it says religions as Hindu, Islam,Christian etc. My request to ISKON is kindly propagate the universal truth as "GOD is one and any body can follow any philosophy as long as it does not promote criticism or condemnation of other philosophies.

dwait and adwait both is our need. How?? See humanity is a vast concept. You have to treat everyone equal. But when you are living your life you need to differentiate people on some basis. For eg. between your mother, sister and wife. You can have sex with your wife but not with your mother and sister. There you have to follow the differentiation but when it is case of Justice and compassion you have to treat them equally. Tulsi das follower of dwait says "SIYA RAM MAI SAB JAG JANI" this is inspired by adwait. "I can feel Sita and Ram everywhere". But when he goes Vrindavan and sees Krishna statue...he prays that plz be my dhanush vala Ram. This kind of love is Dwait. So our duty is to adopt the beauty of both the concept. That is the reason why Chaitanya Mahaprabhu follows different ideology than that of his Guru. He doesnt choose the extreme ideas of only dwait or only adwait. He combines both. That is what we need to do. Even Adi Shankar did krishna bhakti after so much of Adwait ideas. He says "Bhaj Govindam Mudhmate". And this fight of Dwait and Adwait...this will go on forever. Dont be devaited by it. In adwait you become fruit. But in dwait you have the facility to enjoy the fruit remaining aside. it depends on you what you want. You wanna be fruit or enjoyer of the fruit.

@@kiteretsu3600 seems that you don't know nothing about Achintya Bheda-Abheda vedanta and instead giving your own invalid conclusions about it, without having proper knowledge. Weather the Jiva is in bhaddha avastha under the clutches of beginningless Samsara or in mukta avastha were he became free from the clutches of Samsara, His Individuality remains and still he is Bheda-Abheda Prakash of Brahman. Jiva is not something that exist only in the condition State under the influence of avidya. Rather, jiva is a who is cit-rupa, consciousness in nature, is an integrated unitary amsha/ eternal part of the Paramatma, in nature is Shakti(potency) of Paramatma who is Shaktiman. Firstly,Jiva is different [Bheda] from Paramatma, because Upanishads/Sastras directly says so. Because, Jiva is Shakti (energy) of Paramatma who is Shaktiman(energetic ), the 'Shakti' has no seperate existence from shaktiman, and eternally subservient to him. It is for this reason that the jiva and Brahman are sometimes said to be one[ Abheda ]. After attainment of moksha also Jiva's constitutional position is as subservient of Brahman. In no way after moksha Jiva can became Brahman in all respect. Rather jiva only attain tad-atmaya, oneness of nature with Brahman.

[@soumyabratasahoo3649]

According to Nyaya Sastra, anything that has got parts is Non-eternal.Jivatma (Chetana) cannot be a part of Paramatma(Another Chetana) since it brings dosha in Brahman. A CHETANA CANNOT BE A PART OF ANOTHER OF CHETANA AS KRISHNA SAYS CHETANA (ATMA) IS INDIVISBLE THEN HOW CAN YOU SPLIT TWO DIFFERENT CHETANAS. WHEN KRISHNA SAID JIVATMAS ARE MY PARTS IT MUST BE UNDERSTOOD THAT JIVA AND PARAMATMA ARE INSEPARABLE AND JIVA FORMS THE BODY OF VISHNU. Jivas idam sariram te !!

[@ktailor1980]

A ‘part’ means a ‘power’, in accordance with the scriptural text: “This individual soul, a power of the Highest, is small in power and not independent”. A ‘part’ should not be understood here as a portion, or severed like a portion of wealth and the rest; for if the jivatma was a portion cut off from Brahman, then texts like ‘Without part’ (Śvetāśvatara-upaniṣad 6.19) and the like, will be contradicted. The true view is that the jivatma is, by nature also different from the supreme self, predicated to be the whole, and has the ocean of a mass of attributes like omniscience and omnipotence. But it is yet non-different from Him, as its existence and activity are under the control of the whole. So texts designating non-difference are not to be taken literally because a non-difference between the non-knowing jivatma and the all-knowing parabrahman is actually impossible as they are mutually exclusive. If the advaita was true then what more would the Vedas be than the idle talk of a person out of his mind?!

[@soumyabratasahoo3649]

@@ktailor1980 Power is also a wrong term btw. According to Visista-Advaita, Jivas Are Cit Amshas and Matter/Jad is then Acit Amsha Of lord. So Brahman is Cit-Acit Visista Brahman. Jivas and Jagat form the body of Sri Vishnu/Narayana. So, Brahman is qualified by both Jivas(Cit) and Jagat(Acit). It's the relation of Body-Soul or Sun and Sunrays. So there is inseperable relation between Lord and Jivas. But according to Dvaita Vedanta, The realtion between Jiva and Ishvara is like Bimba-Pratibimba Vaad i.e. Object-Image Relation. Without Object There is no existence of Image i.e. Jiva xonpletely dependent upon Vishnu. The way object moves the image also acts i.e. The kind of activities a Jiva perform is given prerna by Hari Himself. The object can never be any type of distortion but the image can be. So , Sriman Narayana is without any blemishes and Jiva is subject to act undsr delusion or ignorance. According to Advaita, Jiva, Ishvara, Jagat are the wrong Upadhis given under Avidya.I will write in detail in other commsnt not here. Sri Krishnaya Namah 🙏🏼🙏🏼

The isopanisad says The Personality of Godhead is perfect and complete, and because He is completely perfect, all emanations from Him, such as this phenomenal world, are perfectly equipped as complete wholes. Whatever is produced of the Complete Whole is also complete in itself. Because He is the Complete Whole, even though so many complete units emanate from Him, He remains the complete balance.
