MIND, MATTER AND GOD : JIVA, JADA AND ISVARA<br />

M.M.NINAN<br />

FATHER, SON & HOLY SPIRIT<br />

Sat-Chit-Ananda constitute the very essence or Svarupa of Brahman, and not just Its<br />

attributes. This forms the Saguna Brahman the Iswara.<br />

The very word Iswara is derived from the Christian concept from the words Isa Paran<br />

translated as “Jesus the Lord”. We should not forget that Sankara was in the midst of a<br />

powerful Christian community in Kerala. It is a God who interacts with the world and<br />

redeems it and the cosmos is the but the body of Isa.<br />
