Guest guest Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Dear members, Why have Sri Madhavarcharya, Sri Adi Sankaracharya, Sri Ramanujacharya given three contradictory philosophies on the same topic. All the three people are great souls. What ever they prescribe must be the truth. Why do we need three philosophies in the place of one? Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji: The little child goes to the sea shore and comes back concluding that the sea contains pebbles and shell-stones. The fisherman comes back concluding that the sea contains fishes. The diver asserts that it is full of pearls and corals, while the fact is that all of them were right -- the sea contains all of those and much more. Similarly God is vast and incomprehensible. From your very question, you seem to agree that these Saints were great souls. The fact that they have propounded distinct philosophies only implies that God is incomprehensible even to them. Such is His greatness.
