Talk:Hamsa Gita

Dedication and invocation


"'Clearly, then spiritual philosophy reaches its most complete form in the achintya-bhedabheda school of Sri Chaitanya (1486-1533), which is considered the cap on the Vaishnava tradition, for here we see both monism and dualism fully actualized as complementary aspects of the same truth. The phrase achintya-bhedabheda means 'the inconceivable oneness and difference between God and the living being.' It encompasses both the essential truths of Advaita Vedanta as well as the sense of 'difference' found in earlier Vaishanava traditons. Here we see the idea of the 'unity in opposites' in its most developed form. Mature religious understanding, Sri Chaitanya argues, is a constant dialogue between One and Zero, form and formlessness, feasting and fasting, and yes and no--seeing harmony in the obvious difference of diametrically opposed phenomena. And yet 'harmony' presupposes an interaction of different elements working together. In the [Bhagavad] Gita, this has been analyzed as the paradox of the One and the Many--a paradox that has been resolved by monists in one way, as we have seen, and by Vaishnavas in quite another.'

The Oneness is the Absolute and the Difference is the many of the Relative as the 'two truths' (Sanskrit: satya dvaya) they coalesce effortlessly in realization or not, as there are innumerable rasa.The key is that the sum of 108 = 9 and if the esotericism of numerology is known and the historical development of the decimal system and the Zero then by Grace it is all crystal clear. That said, investigate Dharmic numerology and number esotericism that may be found in Dharmic Astrology and Vastu Shastra.
