One of the many misunderstood aspects of Sanatana Dharma is the precise nature and meaning of what is called the Tri-Murti, the three divinities of Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu. For over two-hundred years now, unreliable and biased Christian sources had claimed that these three beings were considered to be the three highest gods (a "trinity") of "Hinduism". In this important livestream event, Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya finally lays this Christian-inspired myth to rest as he explains to us the actual nature of the Tri-Murti in accordance with the Vedic scriptures.
“The first purushas (personalities) are Brahma, Siva and Vishnu. Among them Vishnu stands the highest (1) because of His sattvic activities, (2) because of His protection of the universe, and (3) by His capacity to bestow the highest bliss (apavarga). In this manner He is superior to the other two.” (Parama-Samhita Pancharatra, 2.94-95)
“As being the cause of all that is good He is called Purushottama (the Supreme Person). Eternal well-being and worldly prosperity alike are declared to be sourced in Narayana Himself.” (Parama-Samhita Pancharatra, 2.96)
“Lord Narayana said: It is Me alone that all men please by sacrifices of all kinds. It is again Me that the yogis, who are masters of their senses, contemplate, praise in prayers and worship in devotion. It is Me again that the Upanishads, of all the branches of the Vedas, discuss.” (Parama-Samhita Pancharatra, 2.108-109)
“Being in all the worlds as their Soul, I am the Supreme Soul, controlling all. All the worlds exist in Me. I am therefore the Lord of all.” (Parama-Samhita Pancharatra, 2.110)
