        Trinity Gods - Vishnu

Behind the creation is intelligence. This Cosmic intelligence is represented as Vishnu. It is this intelligence that is the source for creation as well as to maintain the creation. This is why Vishnu  is the Trinity God of protection or preservation or sustenance.

Everything in this universe has a specific pattern and there is Intelligence in every bit of creation. This intelligence that is manifested in the creation has beauty in it.  This intelligence is represented by Vishnu and beauty (pattern) that is present as the core (heart) of Creation is represented by his wife Lakshmi.

        Intelligence is slightly different from the Intellect. Intelligence is  in every creation and is the fundamental of creation. The Intelligence is unchanged but is expressed as  intellect and changes over time.  We seek  intellect (Buddhi) in us when there is a crisis and needs restoration of order. Then the intelligence manifest in us, like the avatars of Vishnu that comes often to restore order.

This also holds good for our inner faculties. By keeping the mind in a creative mode and focused, the intellect sharpens or deepens or evolves. This intellect is that sustains (balances) the whole mind. Without intellect there is no order of the mind. Without the intellect, there will be only thousands of random thoughts.  But it is the intellect that sustains the mind to be in order, otherwise random thoughts will only be chaotic.  

It is the cosmic intelligence that manifest as intellect, which changes or evolves. This is the beautiful symbolism behind the 10 avatars (Dasavatar) of Vishnu. Intelligence is present in every being, but the intellect evolves as different species , which is highest in human being.

GOD

Ego projects a concept of God

        When Ego suffers in pain and sorrow, it looks for a temporary solace. This is how it makes the concept of God. It is out of its own weakness and fear that it creates a concept of God. We shall discuss about the concept of God.

Claims of the Ego

         The irony  is the reflection of the Sun take claims that it is the real Sun, and it was who that melted the glaciers and formed the streaming  mountains and now it is the one that is floating on this river. "I" "I" "Mine" is the way this Ego reflection uses the maximum. One's you realize your true Self, then you understand what a fool this Ego was, claiming all work to itself. The biggest foolishness was to think that it was floating on the river and it was part of the river. In reality it was not the river, its reflection just fell on the river. The Ego is mere a reflection and has no substance in reality.

        But this reflection does not want to away. The Ego does not like to think that it is a reflection. it tries all means to protects its false identity. To achieve this it makes all the concepts and tries to prove its reality. This is what we see in this world that is happening. It tries to establish its power in every means and moments of life.

                  Son's of Brahma

(Please read  body mind intellect  given in the previous sections to understand concept of Trinity Gods like Brahma).

Manu: Brahma's first son is "Manu", which means the mind (manas) and from it derives the root word for Manusha (Man in Sanskrit) and also Man in Latin. The Manu-smriti's are code of conduct for Man. Very interestingly , this is edited and revised throughout the history of mankind. However there is the underlying basis of Truth in al Manusmrithis. Rules and regulations at one time need not be applicable to another period of time and also place of living. 

      There are many versions of Manusmrithi. If one does not understand that nature of Mind changes and evolves and adapts and so does laws of society, one finds contradictions in different Manusmrithis. 

Narada: His most popular son is Narada. He is very much respected and is called with Naradji is considered as one of the 12 chiranjivis. ‘Chiranjivi’ means one who lives forever. He is such a wise sage that he is also regarded as the ‘mind’ of God - one who always knows God’s wishes as Naradji. He is such a wise sage that he is also called as Narad Maharishi. (The picture is from kids.swaminarayan.org/storytime/naradji.htm

     Narad thought he son of Brahma, always has on his lips and mind, one word "Narayana" or Vishnu. He has a musical instrument "Thamburu".

Narad represents the inquiring mind. Narad always ask questions to everyone. Whomsoever he meets, he inquires. This inquiring mind ends in dispute and quarrels but finally ends up with a happy note. This represents our inner search to higher knowledge. In the beginning there is so much confusion and debates, but finally when the truth dawns there is happiness.

     Narada is the Maanasa-putra (Son of Mind) of Brahma, but keeps spreading the name of Vishnu, the Cosmic intelligence. The inquiring mind seeks only intelligence. Through Inquiry,  we end up in getting closer to the Cosmic intelligence.  It is only by Inquiring (not enquire),  Humans evolve to understand the highest Truth. This becoming one with the Higher Truth or God, is devotion or Bhakthi. No wonder why Narada is praised as the one who spreads devotion.

      Narada Maharishi reveals  us a great Truth, that the fundamental aspect of Human should be devotion to god through inquiry as opposed to blind faith. This is the greatest strength of Vedic tradition and hence we said before that Vedic tradition is Science  and not religion. Narada's Tamburu, the musical instrument  is played as a background music which helps the singer to stay on  beat of the music while singing any Indian classical song. Similarly in all our quest and actions, we should have the remembrance of the Consciousness in our background of our mind. This will help us to be on-beat with the music of life. This life-style is  a life of real devotion or Bhakthi. This help us to overcome from the clutch of Ego.

Daksha, the Son of Brahma, the first Ego thought.
