Who is God ?

In the Bible Jesus calls himself the Son of God and the Angel of God. In the Qur'an, Muhammad calls himself a preacher or messenger of God. None of them claimed to be God. So who is God? Only God knows the answer of this question.

 According to the Bhagavad Gita of the Vedic scriptures, Lord Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna declares Himself to be the Absolute Source of all things, the Absolute God above the gods.

Unfortunately many people think that Lord Krishna is a common man and some admit that Lord Krishna was a superhuman with some miraculous powers. But according to the scriptures, Lord Krishna is not an ordinary human being, nor is he a superhuman or an extraordinary person. He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself.

• God: Called by different names

As the word ‘Almighty’ implies that no one is better than God. ‘Omnipotent’ means that God is omnipotent. God is the ruler of infinite power, there is no end to his power. The English call the sun 'Sun', the Hindi speakers call it 'Suraj' and the Sanskrit speakers call it 'Surya'. When these three classes of speaking people pronounce these three words aloud, they mean the same sun. Similarly, God is called by different names, such as: 'Jehovah' which means 'Almighty', 'Allah' means 'the greatest', 'Krishna' means 'all-attractive', 'Ram' means 'absolute consumer', etc.

• Definition of God

A simple definition of God is: 'Jammadasya yata:' "from whom all is revealed" (Va: 1/1/1). -   The word 'Bhagwan' is Sanskrit, and its meaning has been analyzed by Parashar Muni, the father of Vyasadeva -

1. Wealth, 

2. All semen (Shaktima), 

3. All glory, 

4. All Shri (beauty), 

5. All knowledge and 

6. All asceticism in which the absolute form is present, the absolute Men are God. 

" The word 'vag' means six auspiciousness (saraishvarya) and the word 'ban' means added or combined. Just as the word wise means knowledge-compliant, the word rich means rich in wealth, so the word god means one who is fully comprised of 6 riches.

• According to Srimad-Bhagavatam, God exists in three forms: Brahman, Paramatma, and God:

Badanti tattvavidattattvang yajnyajnamadvayam. Brahmeti paramatmeti bhagavaniti ।।

In words : “That which is unique knowledge, that is, one and unique real object, is what the sages call absolute theory. That theory is defined or spoken in the threefold definition of Brahma, Paramatma and Bhagavan. ”

Brahma is the undisputed Brahmajyoti which can be compared to sunlight or the energy of the sun.

"I worship the primordial male Govinda, from whom the infinite Basudhadi Aishwarya in the billions of universes, separated by the infinite Basudhadi Aishwarya, the immaculate (inanimate material qualities, impure), the eternal (omnipresent), the infinite Brahman from whose limbs have arisen."
- Brahmasanghita 5/40

Paramatman is the manifestation of the omnipresent part of the omnipresent God, who exists in every atom, and 

In the same way it exists in the heart of every living being.

This Paramatma is the quadrilateral Vishnumurti, who exists in the heart of all atoms and all living beings (‘Andantarasthang Paramanuchayantarasthang’ - Brahmasanghita).

The Lord is the supremely glorious, full-bodied Lalit-Tribhanga Sachchidananda-Vigraha Dwibhuja Sri Krishna (Shyamsundara). The realization of this Bhagavad-gita form of Paramatman lies in the realization of the Brahman and Paramatma consciousness of God, just as once you see the Sun face to face, you realize that this Sun is the source of the vast expanse of sunlight and the reflection of the Sun in the mirror.

• The first verse of the Brahmasanghita says:

Ishvara: Parama: Krishna: Sachchidananda Vigraha :. Anadiradirgobindah sarvakaranakaranam.

“Lord Krishna is the supremely supreme God. His Srivigraha i.e. Srideha Sat-Chit-Ananda-Ghana, i.e. Nitya Shasvat, Chinmoy or Gyanmaya and Chidanandamaya. He has no origin. Because he is the origin of eternity, the source of all things. He is the original cause of all things, the ultimate source of all existence. ”

We can take an example from Srimad-Bhagavatam so that we can realize the true nature of Srivigraha or the body of Sri Krishna's Sachchidanandaghana. 

Once Krishna's mother Yashodamayi looked into the child-shaped-Lord Krishna's mouth to see if Krishna had eaten the soil. What would he see when he looked inside the mouth of an ordinary mortal human child? Mouth cavity, which contains teeth, tongue, palate. But when he looked into the face of Lord Krishna, he saw the whole universe in his face. Mother Yashoda even saw herself in Krishna's mouth - she was looking at Krishna's face in amazement, she also saw that scene in Krishna's face as if it was real. This parable proves that although Krishna is standing in front of mother Yashoda, at the same time he is holding the whole universe.

• Proof of the supremacy of Lord Krishna : 

God is one, unique from whom everything emanates.

Lord Krishna said, 

• Ahang sarvasya prabhabo m sarvang prabratte. Iti matba bhajate maa budhabhabasamnbita: 

“I am the source of everything in the inanimate and conscious world. Everything is introduced from me. Those who are aware of that theory and worship me with pure devotion are the real theorists. ” (V. - 10/6)

• Sri Krishna: The source of all qualities

Buddhih jnanang asangmoh kshma satyang damah shamah. Happiness, sorrow, fear, lack of fear, fear and fear. Ahimsa samata tustih tapo danang yasoh ayasah. Bhavasti bhaba bhutanang matta eb prithagvidhah.

                                                         (VG 10 / 4-5)

“Wisdom, knowledge, emancipation, forgiveness, truth, restraint of external and internal senses, happiness, sorrow, birth, fear of death, fear, non-violence, contemplation, contentment, austerity, charity, fame for religion and disgrace for iniquity - all these are mine. Is generated from.

Bhismadeva (one of the twelfth Mahajans) 'Vishnu worships Lord Krishna in the Sahasranama stage as follows:

• Na krodh na cha matsarya na lovo nashud matim. Bhavasti krtapunyanang bhaktanang purushottame. Dhyayuh sachandrak nakshatrakong disho bhumhodadhih. Basudevasya Birsen Vishnutani Mahatmanah. Sasurasura Gandhabangsa Yakshoraga Rakshasam Jagadvashe Vartedang Krishnasya is common.

(Vishnu Sahasranama - 13/15)

“The devotees of Lord Krishna's virtue have no anger, no matsarya (envy); They have no greed, and there is no harm in harming others. Sun, moon, stars, sky, directions,

The earth, the oceans are all in the power of Krishna. Surganas (gods and goddesses), asuras, gandharvas, yaksas, nagas, raksas and all other movable and immovable beings, that is, the immovable and movable living beings, are completely under the control of Lord Krishna. ”

Conclusion 

The advent and disappearance of Lord Krishna is like the sun. When the sun rises in our sight as we think the sun rises. When we look at the sun in the sky, we think that the sun is in the sky now, then it disappears from sight, just as we think the sun has set; But in fact the sun is unchanging in the sky all the time, under the influence of our distorted senses we think that the sun rises and sets. Lord Krishna is always like that is never born, He does not die, He appeared in this inanimate world, just like the sunrise and sunset, completely self-willed, to rescue the fallen creatures and to give joy to His devotees, and on time he disappeared.
