Dear Vaishnavas:
I have a question which I would like to get clarified.
In our real svarupa, we (jivatmas) along with Prakriti are said to
be the Body of Brahman (Narayana). This is easy to understand (and
also visibly shown to Arjuna).
However the jiva is also said to be an attribute of Brahman. How is
it that the jiva, who is a substantive existent, is also considered
an attribute? Also the jiva is said to be a Mode of Brahman. What is
meant by Mode? Can someone kindly elucidate?
dasan,
P.Srinivasan
