Question

who is the ultimate power according to hindu literature?

Answer 1

Brahman.

Answer 2

I am Not answering the Question.



I am very happy to see that a lot of people have understood the basics of the concept of Brahman.



Way back on February,11,2006, when I started interacting in Y.A.-R &S,Hindu bashers were attacking Hindu Religion with the terms Polytheism. Pantheism. Henotheism, Monotheism, Non-Theism and all that.Now the discussions on Hindu Religion have graduated to a higher level.



So the first lesson that Hindus believe in ONE and Only ONE BRAHMAN (the Supreme Being) has been understood and the point has been driven "Home"--that is the First Aphorism of Brahma Sutram -"Athaatho Brahma Gjinjaasa"1-1-1. has been understood correctly.



Now it is time to go to the second Aphorism:-1-1-2-"Saastra Yonivat"=All Religious Texts emnate from BRAHMAN."



So Hindu Religion is the FIRST Religion to say that VEDHAM (sacred Religious Texts) were "REVEALED" by the Supreme Godhead.



There are 564 Aphorism like this to explain what is BRAHMAN,in Brahma Sutram,authored by sri Bhaadharaayana 14 Intellectual Giants, starting from sri.Acharya SANKARA have written Bhaashyam(Gloss/Commentaries) on these 564 Aphorisms,which are collectively known as Vedhaantham.



Lord sri.KRISHNA has explained this concept in Bhagavad Geetha in simple language."All Religious Texts(GO=Vedham) emnate from Brahman and go back and Reaches BRAHMAN".This GO(Religious Texts) only, the Morons are deliberately twisting and spreading a LIE that Hindus worship COW.

Answer 3

Most Hindus venerate one or more deities, but regard these as manifestations of Ultimate Reality. The Ultimate Reality that is behind the universe and all the gods is called by different names, but most commonly Brahman (not to be confused with the creator god Brahma or the priestly class of Brahmans).



In the Rig Veda, Ultimate Reality is referred to as "the One." In the Purushasukta, it is "Purusha," and in the Upanishads it is called "Brahman," "the One," and several other names. Most modern Hindus refer to the Ultimate Reality as Brahman.



The Upanishads describe Brahman as "the eternal, conscious, irreducible, infinite, omnipresent, spiritual source of the universe of finiteness and change." {2} Brahman is the source of all things and is in all things; it is the Self (atman) of all living beings.



Brahman is impersonal Being in itself, but it can be known through the many gods and goddesses that are manifestations of Brahman.

Answer 4

it particularly is significant for a guy to bypass by way of the different Karma's of his existence earlier he attains Brahma. properly Karma Yoga is one among them. Gyaana Yoga is yet another. some people % Karma Yoga. the importance is that the guy performs his accountability like getting married and having infants and performs his obligations hence. even though he won't proceed to be like this continuously, there'll be a time whilst he will would desire to be indifferent from all this and attain Brahma. As a pragmatic occasion, in basic terms like a individual who has considered each little thing in existence and has understood and matured, he's extra matured than that individual who has in basic terms been faraway from all situations and yet is conscious each and all the theories despite if he on no account skilled them. yet somebody who has particularly skilled the united statesand downs of existence will definitely comprehend existence extra advantageous than the guy who has continuously lived a existence faraway from issues.

Answer 5

Power of what ? knowledge, wealth, action, body strength, ......



Knowing self or God is the ultimate knowledge

The permanent wealth is the above knowledge

The actions without self interest is the action towards above

Strength of the body lies in the ability to assimilate the knowledge and experience the strength of the universe.



God is within us - realising him is enlightenement and empowerment of the mind.



God's power is through these bodies and mind.

Answer 6

Brahmman. Brahman is of the nature of existence-knowledge-bliss-absolute-the ground of all existence, basis of all awareness, and source of all bliss. It is the reality of all realities, the soul of all souls, one without a second, the constant witness of the changing phenomena of the universe. From the absolute point of view, Brahman alone exists. Brahman has two aspects: transcendent and immanent. In Its transcendent aspect, Brahman is devoid of name and form, sex and attributes. But in Its immanent aspect, Brahman is endowed with them. The Upanishads designate the transcendent Brahman by the word "It" and the immanent Brahman by the word "He." Through Its inscrutable power called maya, the transcendent Brahman appears to be conditioned by time and space and to manifest itself as personal God, the creator, preserver, and destroyer of the universe. The Upanishads describe God as the supreme person:

Answer 7

First of all u check ur question.Hindu literature or Hindu religion?If it is literature, then 'THE POWER OF PEN' or if it is Religion ,'THE POWER OF GOD'.

Answer 8

According to all the four Vedas it is "Kavir Dev"

According to Gita, it is also Kavir Dev but it is written as "Kavim" (Adhyay 8 Shlok 9)

Surprisingly, according to Quran Sharif it is "Kabir" (Allah Kabir)



These are all names of the same Supreme God

Answer 9

R-K-V-B is right.. it is the "Purusha".. The One..

but who is this?? " purusha??" "The One"?



one line.



in Brahama samhita evry verse end with " Govinda Adi Purusham"..

Govind -> Lord Govinda (protector of gows..) other name for Lord Krishna..

Adi -> Begining..

Purusham -> person... Purusha.. like R-K-V-B has mentiond..



further it says " tum aham bhajami"

meaning "I surrender unto You"...



further in sumhota it is explained how Lord Krishna / Lord Govinda created this universe and all the being.. and how he is the supreme..

Answer 10

I am not an expert but I think it is us. We aren't puppets in a show. We are powerful souls. Everything is within us. Have you heard of the statement: I think therefore I am? We are whatever we see ourselves to be. Our environment is whatever we deem it to be. Our God and religion is whatever we choose.



Again I am no expert.
