Vachanamrut Essence

Gadhadā I-64

  1. Ātmā and Akshar are the sharir [embodiment] of God and God is the shariri of ātmā and Akshar – this statement should be understood as:
  1. God is all-pervasive, independent, and all-powerful.
  2. Ātmā and Akshar are pervaded by God, dependent on God, and are powerless without God.
  1. God transcends even Akshar, who transcends everything. He is the inspirer of all and the controller of all.
  2. Those who offer bhakti and upāsanā to God understanding Him to possess a divine form:
  1. Acquire the qualities similar to God.
  2. Acquire countless spiritual powers.
  3. Remain in the service of God.
  1. Those who offer bhakti and upāsanā to God understanding Him to be formless are consigned to brahma-sushupti from which they never return.
  2. These facts can be understood only from a person who firmly believes that God is forever divine and possesses a form.
