‘sunyabrahma’ of Shri Achyutnanda and Bhima Bhoi

Abstract

Man is uniquely endowed with the capacity to overcome the limiting factors, within and around his imagination. He has the only sense of goal to achieve divineness through some inner practice. It is innate in every rational human beings to growth himself from incompleteness to completeness, to forward him from darkness to light, and to make himself more conscious rather than unconscious. The more one grows, the more one seeks to outgrow, by transcending the present, to realize the unrealized possibilities. The real quest begins when one has knowledge of one’s ignorance and the sense of humanity. No doubt, ignorance will be destroyed, if one gave effort to understand the real nature of his own existence; because humans are the crown of creation. Power and the potentiality can be processed to achieve a highest goal. ‘Devotion’ presupposes a view of man, cause of bondage and suffering, and the means to liberation. The purpose of ‘Devotion’ is to help ‘Jivatma’ to realize its own nature by dissociating itself from the evolutes of ‘Alekh Brahman’. Devotion is an effort which directs us to surrender at reaching a state when one has discriminative knowledge or Viveka jnana.
