Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Bhoota-krit The Creator (Krit) of all creatures (Bhoota). This word can be dissolved in two ways: (a) One who creates the creatures (Bhootaani Karoti iti Bhoota- Krit) or (b) One who annihilates (=destroys completely, layakaraka)all creatures (Bhootaani Krindati iti Bhoota-krit). In both these cases, Brahman, the Supreme is the One Reality that seems to function as the Creator, Sustainer or Destroyer, when He functions through different gunas in the Total-Mind. Functioning through preponderance(=control, dominance) in Rajoguna, He becomes the ‘Creator’; through Sattvaguna the ‘Sustainer’, and through Tamoguna, He Himself expresses as the ‘Destroyer’. He who manifests and functions, in these three aspects, is the Supreme Vishnu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
