Doubt on Upadesha Mudram.

[Guest guest]

Dear Bhaktas,

 

I have learnt that in the Upadesha Mudram (or Gyana Mudram or Vyakhya

Mudram), Advaitins raise only one finger to denote that only brahman is

real, where as the Dvaitins the first and middle fingers to denote that

Jeevatma and Paramatma are different.

 

In our sampradayam, I have leant that right hand thumb finger as well as

the first finger are together,denoting seperateness and yet togetherness

of the Jeevatma and Paramatma and the rest three fingers indicate the

tatwas of Vishishthadvaitam - namely Chit, Achit and Eshwara.

 

*Please note that any mis-interpretation or mis-understanding of the

Upadesha mantram is only due to my limited intelligence and my

ignorance.*

 

My doubt is; why are the three tatwas held seperatley when the Jeevatma

represents the chit and Paramatma represents Eshwara.?

 

adiyen sri malola narasimha dasan,

 

Malolan Cadambi.
