Supreme Being

One who has withdrawn all their senses into the Self, and who has not caused pain to any creature except as permitted by the scriptures, conducts themselves in this way throughout their life. They reach the World of Brahman after death and do not return.

Everything is indeed Brahman, as declared in the Upanishads. May I never deny Brahman. May Brahman never deny me. May there never be any denial from my side. May all the virtues mentioned in the Upanishads be mine, I who am devoted to the Self.

Knowledge is what moves towards unity, and when it reaches the supramental level, it grasps the oneness, essence, and self-law of existence, and views and handles the many things from that light and fullness, somewhat like the Divine does from the highest point from which He embraces the world.

The Jivas are distinct from God and matter. According to Madhva, the difference between Brahman and Jiva is real.

Achieve Brahman and overcome time. Transcend time and become one with the Eternal.

The Eternal is beyond time. Brahman is timeless, an eternal reality that transcends time.

Brahman is beyond knowledge and ignorance, virtue and vice, merit and demerit, cleanliness and uncleanliness.

The mind does not become tranquil until it is connected to the ever-peaceful Supreme Being.

We have been given this human life to understand the all-pervading, omnipresent God. This knowledge can only be given by someone who has themselves realized God. Life becomes truly happy only after meeting such a God-realized person.

Though I am unborn and My Self is imperishable, though I am the Lord of all beings — by presiding over My own nature, I come into being through My own divine power.

There is nothing whatsoever higher than Me, O Dhananjaya. All of this is strung upon Me, as rows of gems are threaded upon a cord.

This is the lord of all. This is the knower of all. This is the inner controller. This is the womb of all. Verily, this is the origin and dissolution of all beings.

Since I transcend the perishable and am higher even than the imperishable, I am proclaimed in the world and in the Vedas as Purushottama — the Supreme Person.

But there is another Person, the Supreme — called Paramātmā — the imperishable Lord who pervades and sustains all three worlds.

Neither the sun illumines it, nor the moon, nor fire. Having gone there, no one returns — that is My supreme abode.

For I am the foundation of Brahman — the immortal and the imperishable, of eternal righteousness, and of absolute bliss.

The supreme Purusha in this body is also spoken of as the witness, the permitter, the sustainer, the experiencer, the great Lord, and the supreme Self.

You are the imperishable supreme, the ultimate object of knowledge; You are the supreme treasure-house of this universe; You are the indestructible guardian of eternal righteousness; I hold You to be the eternal Puruṣa.

Understand that all beings have their source in these two natures. I am the origin of this entire universe, and likewise its dissolution.

Whatever forms come to birth in any womb, O son of Kunti — the great Brahman is their womb, and I am the father who provides the seed.
