Guest guest Posted January 3, 2000 Report Share Posted January 3, 2000 Dear devotees, please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to ®r…la Prabhup€da and all other VaiŠavas! All glories to ®r… ®r… Gaura-Nitai and ®r… ®r… R€dh€-Govinda! I just wanted to share with others a couple of observations I just have made. It should not be really something outstanding, but is definitely of interest. The Sanskrit word brahman comes from the root bh. The main meaning of this root is "to expand" or similar. This means that m€y€v€d…s & ™nyav€d…s' claim that there is no variety in spirit or in brahman is completely wrong, because brahman MEANS "expansion", so that it already underlines a lot of variety! Haribol! The next observation is that this impersonal brahman is JUSTLY called an "expansion", because our beloved Lord KŠa has explained in Bhagavad-g…t€ 14.27: "brahmaŠo hi prati˜h€ham - I am the basis of brahman". That is, brahman is His expansion! Haribol! I wish You all a very KŠa-conscious new year! Your most unworthy servant, Sergei. Hare KŠa.
