part (Ansh) of the Brahman. Hence, it is "Adwait". Brahmavada Brahman is the source and cause of all that is in the Universe. Purest form of monism anywhere, in any religion. Uniquely, this is the only philosophy that states, categorically, that everything, absolutely everything, is perfect just the way it is. Everything is imbibed with the spirit of the Lord and as the Lord is eternally perfect, everything is perfect! Philosophy It is based on the Vedant philosophy of "Ekmevadwitiyam Brahm" (the ultimate truth is one & only one Brahm) and "Sarvam Khalu Idam Brahm" (whatever is there, is Brahm). Ved, Brahma-sutras, Bhagwad Geeta and Shrimad Bhagawat are the four fundamental scriptures. The ultimate reality to which Ved & Brahmsutras refer as Brahm, Geeta refers as Parmatma and Shrimad Bhagawat refers as Bhagawan are all essentially one. This philosophy is called as "Sakar Brahmvad" or "Shuddhadwait Brahmvad", which is the fundamental doctrine of Vallabhacharya. The path to be followed to attain the ultimate blissfulness based on this principle is called as Pushtimarg. The same Bhagawan is to be lovingly serviced in the form of Deity as Krishna who is "Sachchidanand Purushottam Parambrahm". It (Pushtimarg) is spontaneous, selfless and motiveless love for Krishna. It is based on pure love for Krishna. It is expressed only through selfless service of Krishna - "Seva". It is love after realising Krishna's true nature. The knowledge gained is not a means of liberation. Liberation is considered secondary to the enjoyment of Krishna's bliss. Its aim is Krishna's happiness. No caste, creed, color, sex or age prevents one from attaining Krishna's Grace. It does not know any boundaries, be it time, place, or anything else. It does not require a devotee to give up a householder's life. In fact, one can serve Him better by being a householder. This is different from other philosophies that require a life of contemplation as a monk. All worldly desires are diverted towards Krishna; they are then not required to be suppressed. The world is not looked down upon but is treated as Krishna's creation, and thus as real as Krishna himself. Shri Krishna is the Supreme Deity; all the other deities reside in his form. Therefore, total faith is placed in Krishna alone. In the state of liberation, the entity of the devotee merges into *Shri Krishna's blissful form. However, in Bhakti (especially Pushti bhakti), the devotee does not
