In Shvetaashvatara Upanishad there is a mantra(yadaa charmavadaakaasham….)
Similarly, if we stray away from Him,the fountain of joy and peace, we are the losers. If we stay faraway from fire and suffer, the fire cannot be faulted. Even our digestion is taken care of,by Him.Ĭommenting on a verse in Gita, Acharya Shankara says: during biting cold, if we come near fire,we feel the warmth and feel nice. Gita is replete with verses which say our Yoga-Kshema is in His hands.The 15th chapter of Gita vividly describes in how many ways He brings about our wellbeing. We all know that we are utterly dependent on Him for fulfilment of all our needs.
Salutations to Him who brings about (bhaavayati) our happiness and wellbeing (sham). In verse no.41, Pushpadanta says in his Shivamahimna Stotra: O Maheshwara, I do not know Your truth,what You are etc.Howsoever You may be,O Mahadeva, I offer my salutations.ĭ)The Shvetaashvatara Upanishad says that He is called as Maheshwara because He is endowed with MaayaaHis creative energy,shakti(maayinam tu Maheshwaram) Punishment as Rudra and benediction as DakshiNamoorti.Ĭ) He is Mahaan because He is beyond the reach of our senses,mind,speech and intellect.With intense Bhakti we can experience Him,but we cannot venture to define and describe Him. He is expert in five functions(panchakritya paraayaNa) – srishti,sthiti, laya, nigraha and anugraha(creation,preservation,dissolution, So, He is Mahaan, the Supreme.ī) His workmanship is Mahaan! This mind-boggling universe is His handiwork.”etaavan asya mahimaa” says Purusha Sukta.It means this vast universe proclaims His glory.
The Upanishad says: “By His decree, the sun shinesthe wind blows and the fire burns.”.Without His Will, even a blade of grass moves not(tena vinaa triNamapi na chalati). All the gods and the goddesses who rule us – Agni, Vaayu. But,why is He Mahaan?Ī) There is none above Him. one and all,and is,therefore,called Ishwara. Shri Bhavanishankar,the patron deity of our Community, is the Supreme(mahaan) Lord(Ishwara).
