[Vishnu Puranam]

[Guest guest]

Dear Shree Chandrashekaran Venkataraman,

 

Vishnu Puranam is regarded as "Purana Ratnam" - The Gem among puranas

and is the first in the Satvika Purana Category, fully accepted as

authority as it is in strict accordance with the Sruti (Veda). It is

in the form of conversation between Sage Shree Parasara Bhagavan and

Sage Mytreya Rishi. The Vishnu Puranam aims at explaining the

Tatva (Chit, Achit & Iswara), Hita & Purushaartha and hence the

Visistaadvaita Shree Vaishnava Philosophy and practice. On the other

hand Shreemath Bhaagavata Maha Puranam (though explains the

tatva, hita and purushartha) concentrates more on the Leela (sport)

of Bhagavan Vishnu as it is written by Vyasa with an aim to focus

on Bhagavan's leela and kalyana gunas. This is the answer for your

question. But both puranas talks about these aspects I have mentioned.

 

Thanks & Regards

M.S.HARI Raamaanuja Daasan.

Dear members,

I would like to know why the prabhAvam of Lord Narasimha and

hiraNyakasipu vadham are not elaborated in Sri Vishnu Puranam and done so

only in Srimad Bhagawatam. Please correct me if this impression is wrong.

 

Thanks and regards.

adiyEn,

chandrasekaran.
