अहं ब्रह्मास्मि त्वं ब्रह्म असि अयम् आत्मा ब्रह्म सर्वं खल्विदं ब्रह्म
there needs to be a derogatory word for people who believe this crap about God having an essential form and thus they obsess over Gods body. God transcends form and all forms are His. and "see with His ears, hear with His eyes" is just fluff. God is all-perceiving with or without taking a body.

incorrect, and i'm not just talking about how He claims Brahma is higher than Shiva here. anyway, the only being which is VASTLY higher than all other beings is the Supreme Lord. but its convenient for a brahma sampradaya guy to say this.

@sun i think we're talking about different things, being a good person does not equal being a people-pleaser.

@lizzie yoga just means practices that unite one with God :)

@georgia “Imaginary evil is romantic and varied; real evil is gloomy, monotonous, barren, boring. Imaginary good is boring; real good is always new, marvelous, intoxicating.”

@lizzie you: yoga is sacramental
me: the sacraments are bhakti yoga

ultimately it is the pro-death who will perish first, materially and spiritually.

also, this is what i mean when i say the account of the BP *reads* as being highly adulterated. this is like the puranic example of "and then the whole bus clapped" making an account immediately dubious of embellishment.

here's a good example. Him being astonished by the working of His own energy is no balm for this flaw in the text. it is remniscent of "taking refuge in yogamaya's powers", but of course, Brahman under the influence of maya (or yogamaya) is called a jiva.

I havent addressed this issue with the book because its so frequent as to make me complacent, but there are so many times when Krishna is described in ways not befitting the Supreme Lord He is extolled as being. I'm not just talking about the obvious issue of His conduct, but rather about Him being described as "realizing" or "planning" or thinking/feeling certain childish things as a young child. basically what i seek is a treatment like the Adhyatma Ramayana, where for example Rama is explicitly described as searching for Sita despite always knowing where she is, playing at being a mortal. tulsidas's rendition is similar.

@Hyperhidrosis okay, so "saudis are jews" is baseless. which is what i said.

erm actually, evil demons have their powers by birth or by sorcery or by horrible austerities (the latter only grants boons that are curses), not by yogic achievement. if they had success in yoga, they would quickly no longer be evil.

@Hyperhidrosis if your assertion is that he was ethnically Jewish, this is very unlikely as i said, Jews were expelled from Saudi Arabia in the early islamic period.

this guy says "impersonalists" (advaita vedantins) only gain beatitude by realizing identity with Gods "bodily effulgence". what nonsense. and he doesn't mean it in a sri vaishnava way where the souls are metaphorically the body of God, he seemingly means to say that impersonal Brahman is not an aspect of Para Brahman but is quite literally the radiance of Gods true human form. how silly.
