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

M.M.NINAN<br />

Saguna Brahman<br />

Out of the mouth of this Jagnath proceeds the AUM – the Word.<br />

The Word became Flesh<br />

The Aum is a person as its vibrations takes the form of a man - a person and rises to<br />

create. It is this person Om that created the universe with all its variations – material<br />

and immaterial. The whole creation is in a way Word becoming flesh. The whole<br />

cosmos forms the body of God. “For in him we live, and move, and have our being”.<br />

This concept explains the immanence and transcendence of God. Church as the body<br />

of Christ is just an extension of this Jagnath concept.<br />

One cannot deny the identity of this explanation with the Jewish theology which we<br />

have stated earlier.<br />
