    First lets understand who GOD is. Shiva is eternal and supreme personality of Godhead. But people mistake him to be lord Maheshwara. Both are completly seperate. Shiva is GOD. He is called Mahavishnu by vaishnavites and Shiva by shaivites. From Shiva was born Vishnu and from vishnu was born Brahma. From Brahma was born , lord Maheshwara. Shiva is pure energy and worshipped also in a form of a linga. Similarly adishakti is totally different from parvati.
    Both maheshwara and sati/parvati are avatars of Shiva and Shakti. Shiva is God and Shakti is his rays or energy.
    And yes Vishnu worships Lord Shiva and Maheshwara worships Lord Mahavishnu/Shiva.

    Acharya Shree is saying here at 00:29 : "If there is one God, it is very dangerous."
    Because at 01:06, he states: "GOD IS ONLY ONE."
    To me it is a contradiction, & is very confusing.
    If God is One and has all power to answer the prayers of those who worship Him, and the power to help them and protect them, then what is the need of worshipping what people declare to be demi-gods, goddesses, etc.? I worship the One God, and have found Him to possess all power ascribed to devas, devtas and devis.

    MATTER =ENERGY =CONCIOUSNESS.=Brahman. Only plant can convert light energy in to life force or consciousness. That mean entire universe is different manifestation of same consciousness (Oneness of creation and creator that is Advaita of HINDU) Hindu devatas are different manifestation of same energy for different function in the nature. Creation Destruction and protection and such and such. Not any sane man say creating power and destruction power same .But in consciousness level both are same Energy is to fundamental of most beautiful thing and most ugly things. Fundamental to Energy is consciousness. In matter level only we are separate and different. Entire universe is consciousness and no difference. How energy appear as diverse matter; same way spiritual power is also appears diverse

    If a person has a mobile/cell phone telling them the time, the date, the temperature, with internet access, a calculator, a camera, a video-recorder of the highest quality, would the person prefer to get one phone with only the time on it, another phone with only the temperature, another with only the internet, another with a camera, and another with a video recorder on it? Is it not more logical to use ONE phone with ALL the features you require? It is the same with the ONE God versus many gods

    Acharya Shree,
    Is it necessary to have an object to worship to? Is it a necessary part of religion? I know having an alter is a nice thing to have, but is it necessary to prostrate yourself in front of an image and if so, what does that have to do with spirituality? Noreen Wilkins

  • @mrg69191
    @mrg69191 15 років тому

    Yes exactly! but there is only one supreme god in the end. Most people still misunderstand Hindu mythology because those 33 million gods are manifestations of the supreme god Narayan. And you must not consider yourself completely disrelated to the supreme personality of godhead. yes but there is a supreme manifestation of only a single god. but those other 33 million gods are counterparts of that god himself. and human beings, and other living things with a soul are infinitesimal parts of God.

    @noreen54 ...sister why it is necessary to have an image of GOD wen Yajurveda says "na tasya pratima asti
    "There is no image of Him."
    [Yajurveda 32:3].... Rest GOD knows the best......May GOD guide us

    Great vid here, helped to learn some more about Hinduism. But, not to offend Mr. Yogeesh or anyone here who does not have faith in Christianity...but Mr. Yogeesh is ignorant in regards to Saints in "All Embracing Christianity" a.k.a Catholicism. At 8:40 he says Catholics worship Saints...FALSE, they are "prayed" to, not equivalent to worshiping the ONE GOD. Pray means "to ask" in jewish/christian biblical context...Again, just wanting to correct the misinformation.

    @auryanvedasingraddra9788 12 років тому +1

    Yes Ishvara is a name of Allah, Yahweh and Waheguru. Of that god there is no picture, animal, idol. God has no image so i dont believe in idol worship nor do i give forms to god, god has no forms. AA means vanisher of sins, LL means forgiver of sins and AH means Pardoner, thats ALLAH. RA means Mercy and MA means forgiver thats RAMA.

  • @mrg69191
    @mrg69191 15 років тому

    What you all must understand is that you are all infinitesimals and trying to find out about the infinite. God is out of your reach. And if you think that he is non existent than you are truly ignorant. God is the reason and God is the cause of the creation. Ignoring the presence of the supreme being, mentally dwelling on the senses he with such a deluded intellect is called a hypocrite. Even if you learn science you must learn to acknowledge God with Love.

      Then who is Jesus? I heard that Jesus was born of virgin Marry. He did maracles but people were jelouse of him and crucified him to dead but he rose on Sunday.... I also heard that he will come back to earth to reap the people,to divide good and bad. Good people will take to paradise and bad people will be thrown to hell..... So any other religions say the same? If not there are many gods.... M confuse....

    • @hakibra7553
      @hakibra7553 9 років тому

      In Islam. Jesus pbuh was a jew. and born out of miracles, and he wasnt the one to be crucified, instead he was brought up somewhere by Allah/Eli when he ran away from the mobs that wanted to crucified him. And the one that got crucified was the false man and not Jesus pbuh. 'rose on sunday' meaning to say that, he will come back to earth on sunday, but the time hasnt come yet, it will come probably after world war 3 (nuclear war). When he comes back, he will gather the ummah (does not mean Islam only, it can be anyone who believes), those who follow the commands of Allah and believe in His words and believe Muhammad pbuh the messenger of Allah/Eli. Jesus will gather people only and lead them to Allah. those who deny Allah will be thrown to hell by Allah and not by Jesus pbuh. Because Jesus is not God but only a man. He can only show us the way to paradise or hell.
      In Christian bible, stated, "Not everyone who says to Me (Jesus pbuh), "Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me (Jesus) in that day, "Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name (Jesus), cast out demons in Your name (Jesus), and done many wonders in Your name (Jesus)?' And then I (Jesus) will declare to them, "I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!” - New Testament (Matthew 7:21-23). This statement show that when Jesus pbuh got back to earth, those who whorshipped Jesus pbuh instead of Allah/Eli, will be rejected by Jesus pbuh.

    There is only one god, sages call him by many names. Mallacha in sanskrit defines the eternal one. That is God, eternal God is nameless. You can call him by Jesus, Heshem, Allah, Brahman, Zeus, WaheGuru, Kifflom or any other name. God can have many names, but God is not many. WaheGuru, Heshem and Allah are the same god in hinduism they are called Ishwar or Bhagawan. Jesus is known as Vishnu as for Zeus and Kifflom they're regarded as ParaBrahm
