Shiva Day Seven
The
Concept of God in Hinduism by Swami Krishnanada
1. The Purusha-Sukta
(Rig-Veda) proclaims that this entire universe is God as the Supreme Person – the Purusha with thousands of heads,
thousands of eyes, thousands of limbs in His Cosmic Body. He envelops the whole
cosmos and transcends it to infinity.
This is the first concept that idealizes
God as a Supreme Person – the Purusha. It has become a norm to imagine god as a
humanoid and that we humans can
communicate with the supreme on the same level.
The Chapter 11 of the Bhagavad Gita
stimulates your audio-visual senses to understand the cosmic image of Krishna.
Chapter 15, stimulates your intellect to understand the
conscious working of the Universe where Krishna is identified as consciousness;
the supreme personality of God Head or Purna Purushottam or grand Self or
Brahman in the domain of the cosmos.
