No teaching is complete without ishvara

Ishvara has to be understood, since this world has to be understood.

This 'has to be', when i say 'has to be', I do not say it because it is 'my' desire or wish, or it is some moral code to be followed, however it is a reality that every human is faced with.

We are faced with the reality, that we are ignorant. That we do not know the answer to , where did this world come from?, who created it?, who am I? etc. we do not know, and we want to know.

It is a default setting, to want to know is a default setting, every human wants to know, we cant escape it forever though we can postpone.

So if this creation has to be understood, my place in it has to be understood, the creator also has to be understood.

Jiva, jagat and ishvara have to be understood.

Vedanta says 'isavAsyam' idam sarvam. All that is here is ishvara. It is non dual, ishvara alone exists. In fact there is no difference between jiva, jagat and ishvara, it is one, non dual reality. Hence that which you want to know is yourself.

This has to be unfolded, its appears to be a brave statement, not believable, but it is true.

This is not left unto faith, it can be taught, you can be taught that you are ishvara, and all that is here is ishvara.

Shastra teaches that, our sampradaya teaches that. Our gurus have taught this alone. It can be passed on through teaching, Through guru sishya.
