DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BRAHMAN AND ISHWAR (GOD)

Brahman is the base for this creation and Ishwar is the creator. Two great philosophies are based on this difference; they are the advaitam and dvaitam.

Excellent

[@balajiclasses9080]

mam if brahman is the cause, doesn't he become doer of some actions which shows it's limitation??

[@kalaraniponnakumar2967]

Brahman is the cause, in the sense without Brahman nothing exists; with the help of its inherent power Maya, jiva takes birth according to its karma. Jiva is the doer as well as the enjoyer of actions and it is limited according to its knowledge. The actions of jiva does not affect Brahman and Brahman is infinite. For example it is just like the electricity and a fan. Electricity is the common cause, however the fan works based only on its mechanism. The capability of the fan does not affect or limit electricity which helps it to work. The concept of Ishwar is, he is (Brahman + manifested maya) and the knower of his nature and he helps the jiva to take form and perform his karma without hindrance; just like how an electrician helps to connect electricity and the fan to work properly. Hope I have made my point clear.

Brahman allah Jesus sab ek hein

Apki agya sey dost......Ishvar, allah, Jesus sab ek hein. Brahman nahi, Brahman ek nimith kara hai (sat chit anantham), creation key bahar hai. Ishvar creation karta hai.

@@gokulnayak6727 No. Ishwar, allah and jesus are different concept. Ishwar is all pervading (including in human being ) pure consciousness having no name or form. Allah is sitting somewhere in the sky talking something doing final judgement etc which is entirely different from our concept of Ishwar. Again jesus having in human form and birth and death and quite different from our concept of Ishwar. We can compare Siva or Vishnu with Allah or jesus not with Ishwar.In Hinduism there are three level God concepts. First level Brahman, second level Ishwar, third level Devata (Siva or Vishnu ). In other religions only third level God concept.

@@jayaprakashck7339 Allah is never in highest heaven thats just blasphemy in Islam. Allah does not have form or anthromorphic features nor is constrained in time or place at all. Allah is infinite and unseen god. You can never conceive of it or can perceive it. The Quran use hands ands and attributes such as anger as metaphor but not literal. Literal falls into anthromorphism sin. Allah is same as brahman but is more communicable and near

@@beyondheartmindsoul3443 concept of god in khuran (allah ) and vedas (Brahman ) are entirely different and opposite. Allah is the creator and world is creation. Both are different. That is why worship of creation not allowed. Notonly that allah created man from mud and woman from the bone of man through his hands. He should have mouth to order somthing and doing final judge ment. He is sittting in heaven and khuran under his throne.The aim of a muslim is to go to heaven and sitting near Allah permanently.But Brahman (Om) in Hinduism is infinte universal consciousness which is the same as individual consciousness in each living being and world is only an appearness in Brahman. So worshipping creation as brahman is allowed. There is no second thing other than Brahman. The aim of a Hindu is not to go to heaven, not have final judgement, instead merging into Brahman (moksha ).Each religion is different from other, god concept, heaven concept etc are entirely different.
