The presently evident fact of Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara

We have the trinity, ishvaras, brahman, vishnu and maheshwara.

All the three sri brahma, sri vishnu and sri maheshwara, are one and the same parama ishvara, or bhagavan, but with different roles, forms and functions with respect to the jagat.

The jagat entails all knowledge, and consists of all knowledge manifest through 3 shaktis, iccha shakti, kriya shakti and gnana shakti.


Hence all the three , brahman , vishnu and maheshwara do not exist separately, but also have the respective shaktis referred to by the accompanying shakti.

Shakti are represented in female forms as -

1. Brahma has saraswati as his shakti
2. Vishnu has Mahalaxmi as his shakti
3. Shiva has PArvatI as his shakti

Now coming to the forms and functions of each of these lords.

Brahma and Saraswati -

Together brahma and saraswati are responsible for designing the creation, how the creation should be. Hence when the jagat is manifest, brahma with saraswati also manifests the vedas, or the knowledge that comes along with the manifestation.
So brahma has all knowledge saraswati and manifests the jagat in keeping with the knowledge, intelligently designs the universe as per the karmas of the jivas in the previous universe.

The same brahman ishvara, with shakti in the form of saraswati or knowledge, is able to perform the task of manifestation, intelligently at the time of manifestation ( when the cycle of manifestation begins).

Here the 3 shaktis are at play, iccha shakti, that may the manifestation occur, kriya shakti, the very act of manifesting the jagat and gnana shakti, the knowledge with which the jagat is manifest.

Vishnu and Mahalaxmi - 

As the jagat manifests, what is manifesst is to be maintained. It needs sustenance and nourishment. If a tree is born, the tree needs water and sunlight for nourishment and growth. It needs continous presence of life for its sustenance. Sustenance of a living tree is not a lifeless, actionless thing, it is an activity.

Even to preserve the home, the homemaker, husband or wife, needs to maintain the home.
Needs to make constant efforts to keep the home nourished and well sustained, helping it.

Every human child needs sustenance. Even grown adults need sustenance. They need an environment where they can grow and be nourished. An economy is needed, wealth is needed, health is needed and so on.

MahAvishnu, with the shakti of mahalaxmi, who is in the form of iccha shakti, kriya shakti and gnana shakti , perform the function of maintenance of this jagat. Its sustenance.

Maheshwara and PArvati -

As the jagat is created and sustained, there needs to be change, there is birth and there is death. Things manifest, and go to unmanifest.

Even at a home, old things need to be disposed off, and the new has to be brought in. For bringing in the new, the old has to be disposed off.

Shiva with the with the shakti of pArvatI , who is in the form of iccha shakti, kriya shakti and gnana shakti , perform the function of disposal or recycling of this jagat. Its dissolution.

Any moment all the three are active

At any instant, in fact at every instance, in fact all the time, in fact the very truth if time itself, the kAla devatA, is nothing but a samanvaya, a combination of all the three lords and their respective shaktis, being ceaselessly active.

The three lords and shaktis are ceaselessly enjoined in the activity of  manifestation, sustenance and dissolution.

This is not a theory. we can witness this fact in action

This is not a theory, we can see the fact of manifestation, preservation and dissolution being present now and here. We see our own body is being sustained as we speak. We understand new cells are being created as we speak, and old cells are dying as we speak.

There is ceaselessly infinite intelligence at work as we speak, and this intelligence is whom we worship.

We worship him and her, as

Brahma vishnu maheshwara and Saraswati, Laxmi and PAravati.
These are forms of worship, for the ishvara who performs these roles and functions.

HariH OM.
