Brahmajyoti as brahman > 5.) Paramatma as brahman. > Can you kindly clarify why these 5 types of brahman. Vedanta-sutra (see Library at veda.harekrsna.cz) lists even more types of Brahman. After all, sarvam khalv idam brahma (everything is Brahman, Chandogya Up. 3.14.1). Yet there are also differences: Brahman proper (Parabrahman) and its saktis who depend on it. Hope this helps ys bh.
