Dear Sir,

 

This is Shankara's commentary and there are errors in meanings and grammer, apart from being philosophically incorrect. Hopefully, we can come up with our commentery and publish.

 

Regards,

Raghu.

On what basis, are you saying that Adi Shankara's

commentary is PHILOSOPHICALLY INCORRECT? Explain.

Some excerpts from the section "Installation of the lord":This helps the student to realise that though he is worshipping the Lord as a Goal (or an Ideal) other than himself (bheda or anya), in fact, he is to seek his identity with no traces of differentiation (Abheda or Ananya), between himself and the Lord. The final realization is a perfect identity indicated in the Mahaavaakya. “I am Brahman”. (Aham Brahmaasmi).

 

This “Installation Ceremony” declares to the devotees that the enchanting form of Vishnu is to be ultimately realised as One Infinite Reality without names or forms-in which the recognition of even the distinction of the meditator-meditated- meditation is to cease.

 

And we do not need to go further than the first few verses to find out how meanings are twisted to suit the philosophy:Vishwam - It is only when intellectually, we view the Lord that we come to recognise Him as the ‘cause’ for the universe. When viewed through contemplation, since the effect is nothing other than the cause, there can be no world other than Him. In fact, there is nothing other than the Supreme. In the Mandukya Upanishad we read ‘Omkaara Evedam Sarvam’. In Geeta ‘OM ltyekaaksharam Brahma’.

 

Vishnuh - ‘Eesaavaasyam Idam Sarvam’-All this is indwelt, pervaded by the Lord.

 

Bhoota-bhavya-bhavat-prabhuh - Thus, He who is the Illuminator of all changes, meaning the Consciousness (Aatman) is the Lord Vishnu. He is the One who is not conditioned by time.

 

Bhoota-krit - Extra comments: Subjectively, the Atman functioning through my own mind and intellect is I, the individuality. My personality entirely depends upon the quality and texture of my own thoughts. I myself become according to the moods of my mind the creator, sustainer and annihilator of my world of experiences. He who manifests and functions, in these three aspects, is the Supreme Vishnu.

 

Regards,

Raghu.

Mr. Unknown or XYZ,

 

I am sorry to see you so frustated and bitter upon pointing out

inaccuracies in the commentary. You are free to believe in Shankara, but

you should know this is a list for Madhva's. I have pointed out what is

incorrect with corresponding statements that you asked for.

Unfortunately, you have nothing else to contribute except attack

personally.

Thantri, Raghuprasad;

RE: Meaning of Vishnusahasranama

 

Mr. Thantri:

Hopefully, in the future, you can refrain from making irresponsible,

inaccurate, ill-advised, ill-educated, and above all, totally myopic and

narrow-minded statements. Are you one of them self-appointed experts?

Peace!
