Notions of God (HINDI/हिंदी में)

- The concept of God is central to human thought, and it has been interpreted in diverse ways across different cultures and philosophical traditions.
Indian Notions of God: In Indian philosophy, God is often understood through two main concepts: Brahman and Ishvara.
Brahman is seen as the ultimate, formless reality that pervades everything. It is infinite and beyond human comprehension, as emphasized in Advaita Vedanta, a philosophy popularized by Adi Shankaracharya. In contrast, Ishvara represents the personal God, involved in the world and worshiped in forms such as Krishna, Vishnu, or Shiva in the Bhakti traditions.
Indian thought presents God both as the creator and sustainer of the universe. Brahman is the source of all creation, and through the law of karma, the universe is maintained. God enforces cosmic order by ensuring that actions (karma) lead to appropriate consequences. This sustains a natural balance through divine laws like dharma (moral order).
Examples from texts such as the Bhagavad Gita highlight this dual aspect. Krishna states that he exists within the world and beyond it, guiding the universe while also transcending it.
Western Notions of God: Western traditions, influenced by religions such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, often conceive of God as a personal creator who is both loving and sovereign over the world.
In Christianity, God is described as the Holy Trinity: the Father (Creator), the Son (Jesus, Savior), and the Holy Spirit (the guide). The creation narrative from Genesis portrays God as creating the universe in six days and then continuing to sustain it.
In Islam, God (Allah) is viewed as an all-powerful, compassionate ruler who controls every aspect of creation. He communicates with humanity through prophets, guiding them in moral and ethical life.
Philosophers like Plato and Aristotle also contributed to Western ideas of God. Plato viewed God as a perfect being and the ultimate cause of all things, while Aristotle described God as the "unmoved mover," responsible for all motion and change in the universe but never changing Himself.
Comparative Discussion: The podcast compares the Indian and Western perspectives on key questions such as:
God as Creator: In Indian philosophy, God is both the material and efficient cause of the universe. Brahman exists within every part of creation, as seen in the famous Upanishadic phrase "Tat Tvam Asi" ("You are that"). In Western thought, God is seen as separate from creation, as exemplified in the Christian belief that God created the world "ex nihilo" (from nothing).
God as Sustainer: In Indian thought, God maintains cosmic order through the law of karma, ensuring that the cycle of actions and reincarnation continues until liberation (moksha). In Western traditions, God actively sustains the world through providence-God’s protective care that guides every moment of history.
Transcendence vs. Immanence: In Indian philosophy, God is both immanent (present in the world) and transcendent (beyond it). Brahman exists in every part of the universe but also surpasses it. In contrast, Western thought, particularly Christianity and Islam, places greater emphasis on God's transcendence-God exists beyond the universe, although He remains involved through divine will.
Personal vs. Impersonal God:
In Indian traditions, God is both personal and impersonal. For instance, in the Bhakti movement, God is worshiped as a personal being who cares for and interacts with devotees, while in Advaita Vedanta, God is formless and beyond personality, existing as the infinite reality of Brahman.
In Western traditions, especially Christianity, God is predominantly viewed as personal, forming a direct relationship with believers. The Trinity embodies this personal connection, with God seen as a loving Father who cares for His followers.
Free Will and Divine Control: The podcast also explores the tension between free will and divine control.
In Indian philosophy, free will exists alongside divine cosmic laws like karma, which maintain order. God may intervene, but ultimately, individuals are responsible for their actions and the resulting consequences.
In Western thought, this tension is more pronounced. While God is sovereign, believers also have free will to make choices, though these choices are often seen as part of God’s larger plan.
Conclusion:
This exploration of Notions of God reveals the complexity of divine concepts across Indian and Western traditions.
These notions shape ethical decision-making, spiritual practices, and how individuals relate to the divine in their daily lives.
Through this comparative study, listeners gain a deeper understanding of the diverse ways God is perceived and how these ideas influence human thought and existence.

Brahmand alag hai aur Brahmin alag hai,
ब्रह्माण्ड यानी universe, Brahmin यानि एक जाति
In dono ke alawa Brahman ka ek alag concept bhi hai.
What is meaning of brahman? Is it reated to caste? Or higher ?
Brahman is the ultimate, infinite reality or universal spirit that is the source of everything.
bramhan ka mtlb bramh hai na
Yes
brahman nahi pronounce it like brahm.
Bhaiya vo brahm ha brahman nahe
Ji. Dono sahi hai. Brahm hi brahman hai.
Jews Christians Muslims they ve one God...but they ve conflict of Prophets.
According to Muslims Allah is one and prophet Muhammad is his last prophet.
With circumspectly...Why God could not save his son on cross..??..none of prophet is crucified by pagans except Jesus.
I think aap ब्रम्हा को ब्राह्मण बोल रहे हैं।
Ji nahi. Brahman alag hai.
Atleast 'Bhahm' ( 'ब्रह्म ') bolna hi sikh lo bhai. Bhraman kya hota hai.. Br br brahman bol rhe ho.
Dono alag hai.
Brahma bhi Brahman se janme hain.
Mne ब्रह्मा nhi kha.. ब्रह्म kha hai.. Ye बृह् धातु se bana hai means "kisi chiz ka vistaar" tum br br brahman khre ho.
आपके पॉइंट्स सही हैं। लेकिन थोड़ा क्लैरिफाई कर दूं -
ब्रह्म (Brahm) और ब्रह्मण (Brahman) असल में एक ही कॉन्सेप्ट की तरफ इशारा करते हैं, लेकिन ब्रह्म अक्सर शॉर्ट फॉर्म या कविताओं में इस्तेमाल होता है,
जबकि ब्रह्मण को दार्शनिक रूप से ज्यादा फॉर्मल तरीके से समझाया जाता है।
दोनों का मतलब है सर्वोच्च, निराकार सत्य, जो हर चीज़ का मूल है।
@@SyllabuswithRohit लेकिन क्या आपको नहीं lgta jab aap kisi aam janmanas k lie koi topic ko asan kr dene wala video bna rhe hain toh aapko चलन se itar ja kr koi naya hi concept nhi lana chaiye. Jo chalan me hai. Uske sath na bne rhne se kya ye video apna औचित्य nhi kho dega? Video ka purpose chize asaan banana hai ya or complex? Qki generally brahman ko aaj jyada ek jaati se associate krke dekha jata h. Jbki दर्शन me esa kuch concept hi nhi h.
भाई, आप सही कह रहे हैं, लेकिन मैंने किताबों में ‘ब्रह्मण’ का उपयोग ज़्यादा देखा है, इसलिए मैं अपने वीडियो में ‘ब्रह्मण’ ही इस्तेमाल करता हूँ।
As u said God is found in every atom of world according to Bhagwat geeta???
According to Islam Allah is more near than the jugular vein
So both concepts are similar?? what's your take on???
My second question is not to hurt anyone's feelings Hindus believe beseech God in idols??
All paths are the same, and yet there is no path.
Bahut hi bora hai good dimagi gulam aur bimar banata hai bayyy😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😢😢😮😮😮😅😮😢😢😢😢😢
