Darshanam Bheda Eva Cha

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha,

Dvaita:

1. Yes, they accept JeevAthma and ParamAthma are separate entities.
2. JeevAthma are Many in numbers, ParamAthma is only ONE.
3. So, it is Bheda Shruti of Upanishad is accepted,
4. But they say, EACH JeevAthma’s have ALWAYS DIFFERENT QUALITIES

VishishtaAdvaitam:

1. Yes, above Daivta 1,2,3 is accepted, so Bheda Shruthi,
2. But above Dvaita 4. is not accepted by Swami RamanujacharyAr because EACH JeevAthma below QUALITIES, you me or anyone is SAME (NO DIFFERENCE)
   1. Gyana Swaroopan (made of only Satva Knowledge),
   2. Parathantran (Always Servant to ParamAthma, Sriman NarayanA)
3. This is established by Kataka Shruthi verses in Upanishads,
4. So, why we see different behavior for each JeevAthma is because of their own Karmas, Vaasanas, Ruchi, Prakrithi Sambhandham covered over the PURE JeevAthma. This is applicable only in this Material World. Hence, these JeevAthmas are called as BhaddAthmas, Once liberated to Moksham (ParamaPadham/SriVaikuntam), these very same BhaadhAthmas will be now Termed as MukthAthmas, and have NO Karma, Vaasanas etc… Hence, they struggled to reflect the above TWO One’s OWN TRUE Qualities while in this Material world, but now able to reflect its TRUE NATURE “Gyana Swaroopam & Parathantriyam” in SriVaikuntam. Hence EACH JeevAthma Qualities are same. This is like Diamond (JeevAthma) covered with Dirt (Karmas, Vaasanaas, Ruchi etc..), made it Opaque, but when cleaned, each Diamond has same Quality Brightness, it EMITS Light by Itself (no need to Impart Light, like No need to Impart Satva Knowledge). It already has both, but not able to exhibit due to the Karmas, Vaasanas, etc…This is the Analogy for the JeevAthma’s Same Quality Once Dirt is removed.
5. This is one of the differences in Dvaita and VishishtaAdvaita.

So “Dharshanam Bheda Eva Cha” is TRULY Established by Swami Ramanujacharya using Kataka Shruthi, not just by the Bheda Shruthi alone as in Dvaita.

Sri:

What adiyen understand Kanchi Perumal’s statement is:

“Don’t think you are equal to me, learn to view me as separate entities, though I am in you, you are not me but I am you”
