  • MULTI-FACETED VEDIC HINDUISM Introduction
    MULTI-FACETED VEDIC HINDUISM M.G. Prasad Introduction Life in the universe is a wonderful mystery. Human beings have the privilege of seeking, understanding and experiencing the mystery of life. In a triadic approach based on the Vedas, existence of life can be described as God (Ishwara), Universe (Jagat) and individual (Jeeva). Any individual human being could see the universe as an entity that consists of all beings including other individuals and nature. The GOD as Supreme Being is seen as a free and independent entity responsible for Generation, Operation and Dissolution of everything in the universe and all beings. Thus it can be seen that One God as Bramhan with all attributes is the unitary source of all manifestations. Any human being is eligible to make connection with this One Source from which all knowledge manifest. The multi-faceted knowledge emanating from this One Source is referred as Vedas, which is infinite and eternal. This infinite body of knowledge as Vedas and Vedic literature can be represented as an inverted tree shown in figure 1 and also referred in Bhagavadgita (15-1). Figure 1: Inverted tree This inverted tree representation can be used to describe the multi-faceted Vedic Hinduism (Sanatana dharma). In Vishnusahasranama, we have the verse: Yogo jnanam tathaa sankhyam vidya shilpadi karma cha Vedaa shastraani vijnanam etatt sarvam Janardhanat Which means that yoga, all types of knowledge, art, sculptures, rituals, Vedas, Vedic scriptures and science have emanated from Janardhana denoting One Source. Thus, this multi-faceted nature of Vedic Hinduism or Sanatana Dharma offers the seekers with diverse aptitudes several pathways to approach that One Source of Light and Bliss.

    Om: One God Universal A Garland of Holy Offerings * * * * * * * * Viveka Leads To Ānanda VIVEKNANDA KENDRA PATRIKĀ Vol. 22 No. 2: AUGUST 1993 Represented By Murari and Sarla Nagar Truth is One God is Truth . God is One Om Shanti Mandiram Columbia MO 2001 The treasure was lost. We have regained it. This publication is not fully satisfactory. There is a tremendous scope for its improvement. Then why to publish it? The alternative was to let it get recycled. There is a popular saying in American academic circles: Publish or Perish. The only justification we have is to preserve the valuable contents for posterity. Yet it is one hundred times better than its original. We have devoted a great deal of our time, money, and energy to improve it. The entire work was recomposed on computer. Figures [pictures] were scanned and inserted. Diacritical marks were provided as far as possible. References to citations were given in certain cases. But when a vessel is already too dirty it is very difficult to clean it even in a dozen attempts. The original was an assemblage of scattered articles written by specialists in their own field. Some were extracted from publications already published. It was issued as a special number of a journal. It needed a competent editor. Even that too was not adequate unless the editor possessed sufficient knowledge of and full competence in all the subject areas covered. One way to make it correct and complete was to prepare a kind of draft and circulate it among all the writers, or among those who could critically examine a particular paper in their respective field.
