Pages in category "God Is The Supreme Truth"
The following 48 pages are in this category, out of 48 total.
A
- A devotee is interested in the spiritual world, not its shadow. Since he has realization of the supreme truth, a devotee is not interested in this temporary shadow of truth. This is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gita (param drstva nivartate (BG 2.59)
- According to the Mayavada philosophy, the Supreme Truth, being all-pervasive, does not need a transcendental form. The Mayavadis suppose that since His form is distributed everywhere, He has no form. This is untrue
- As far as the word atmarama is concerned, the Lord (Caitanya) explained that the word atma is used to indicate: (1) the Supreme Absolute Truth, (2) the body, (3) the mind, (4) endeavor, (5) conviction, (6) intelligence, and (7) nature
E
F
- For the Supreme Absolute Truth, there is no change. It is simply that a by-product results from His inconceivable powers of action. In other words, a relative truth is produced out of the Supreme Truth
- From the very beginning, Srimad-Bhagavatam says, satyam param dhimahi: (SB 1.1.1) we meditate on the supreme truth. The supreme truth is explained here (in SB 5.12.11) as jnanam visuddham satyam
H
- He (Supreme Truth) can be known how? That is also described - sevonmukhe hi jihvadau: when you become in a submissive attitude and you chant. Jihvadau means the realization begins from the tongue. God realization begins from the tongue
- He (the Supreme Personality of Godhead) is the Supreme Truth: satyam param dhimahi
I
- I say that every, at least, religious sect. I don't say others, nonreligious or agnostic. There are Christian, Muhammadan, Hindu, Sikhs, or any religious system, they have accepted that there is God, Supreme Truth
- If we scrutinizingly try to understand the supreme truth, we can understand that He knows everything directly & indirectly. He is the only Supreme Personality, and it is He only who is fully independent. He alone instructed Brahma as the Supersoul within
- In the beginning of Srimad-Bhagavatam it is made clear that the Supreme Truth is eternally uncontaminated by material touch. There is no jugglery of words and activities in the transcendental kingdom of the Lord
- In the SB the beginning is, satyam param dhimahi. Janmady asya yatah: "I am meditating upon the Supreme Truth, Absolute Truth." What is Absolute Truth? Janmady asya yatah - From whom everything has come into existence, that is Absolute
- In the Vedas it is said that only the Lord alone exists, and all others' existences depend on Him. He is the generating reservoir for everyone's existential capacity; He is the Supreme Truth of all other categorical truths
- In the very beginning of Srimad-Bhagavatam, the meaning and purpose of the gayatri mantra are also described: "I offer my obeisances unto the Supreme Truth." This is the first introductory verse dealing with the Supreme Truth
P
- People with less intelligence consider the Supreme Truth to be impersonal, but He is a transcendental person, and this is confirmed in all Vedic literatures. BG 1972 Introduction
- Philosophical speculations should be utilized to establish the Supreme Truth as sentient and all-powerful. Similarly, all other branches of knowledge should always be engaged in the service of the Lord
S
- Selfishness is either self-centered or self-extended. He (Pariksit Maharaja) was neither. His interest was to please the Supreme Truth, Personality of Godhead
- Since He is addressed as the primeval philosopher and maintainer and well-wisher of the universe, the Supreme Truth cannot be impersonal. This is the verdict of Sri Isopanisad
- Srimad-Bhagavatam is above all of these (karma-kanda, jnana-kanda and upasana-kanda) because it aims only at the Supreme Truth, the substance or root of all categories
T
- The best purpose is served when one is directly facing the Supreme Truth, as when one faces the sun
- The conclusion is that one who has no knowledge of the potencies of the Supreme Truth will realize the impersonal Brahman
- The cosmic manifestation is an expansion of one of the many energies of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; the creator and the created are both emanations of the same Supreme Truth, as stated in the beginning of the Bhagavatam
- The different energies of the Lord are present everywhere. Although the Lord and His energies are nondifferent, one should not mistake these energies for the Supreme Truth
- The impersonalists' false arguments claiming the formlessness of the Supreme Truth do not appeal to a devotee of the Lord, even though such a devotee may not be very advanced in devotional service
- The Lord is glorified as one without a second and as the supreme truth who has no beginning. Therefore He is called Anantadeva (unlimited). Who can understand Him
- The Lord stays only where pious men assemble and takes pleasure in their glorifying the Supreme Truth. Maharaja Yudhisthira was anxious to know about the pious men and their pious acts in the city of Dvaraka
- The Lord tells Arjuna that basically there is no possibility of understanding the Supreme Truth, the Absolute Truth, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, simply by speculating. BG 1972 purports
- The material world comes into existence, remains for some time, and is then annihilated. It is not false, for it can be utilized to realize the Supreme Truth. This is Vaisnava philosophy
- The Mayavada philosophy is so degraded that it has taken the insignificant living entities to be the Lord, the Supreme Truth, thus covering the glory and supremacy of the Absolute Truth with monism
- The Mayavadi philosophers say, brahma satyam jagan mithya: "The Supreme Truth is real, whereas the world is false" - but Vaisnavas do not use the word mithya (false), because God, the Supreme Brahman, is truth, and nothing false can emanate from the truth
- The other feature of the statement is that the supreme truth is Bhagavan, or the Personality of Godhead
- The spirit soul (the living entity) and matter are different energies of the Supreme Lord, and since both the energies are products of the Supreme Eternal, or the Supreme Truth, they are factual, not false
- The Srimad-Bhagavatam is superior to all of these (the karma-kanda, jnana-kanda and upasana-kanda divisions of the Vedas) because it aims at the Supreme Truth which is the substance or the root of all categories
- The Srimad-Bhagavatam is superior to all of these because it aims at the Supreme Truth which is the substance or the root of all categories
- The Supreme Truth exists both internally and externally, in the moving and nonmoving. He is beyond the power of the material senses to see or to know. Although far, far away, He is also near to all. BG 13.16 - 1972
- The Supreme Truth is realized in 3 aspects: as impersonal Brahman, localized Paramatma and as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. So at the last stage of understanding the Absolute Truth, one comes to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. BG 1972 purports
- The Supreme Truth is so great that it is not possible to understand Him or to achieve Him simply by making a mental effort. BG 1972 purports
- The ultimate realization of the Supreme Truth is knowing and seeing face to face the Personality of Godhead
