Īśvara-gītā: Brahman as All-Pervading—Kāla, Prakṛti–Puruṣa, Tattva-Evolution, and Mokṣa
सर्वेन्द्रियगुणाभासं सर्वेन्द्रियविवर्जितम् / सर्वाधारं सदानन्दमव्यक्तं द्वैतवर्जितम्
sarvendriyaguṇābhāsaṃ sarvendriyavivarjitam / sarvādhāraṃ sadānandamavyaktaṃ dvaitavarjitam
তেওঁ সকলো ইন্দ্ৰিয়ৰ গুণৰূপে প্ৰকাশিত হয়, তথাপি সকলো ইন্দ্ৰিয়ৰ পৰা বিমুক্ত। তেওঁ সৰ্বাধাৰ, সদা আনন্দময়, অব্যক্ত আৰু দ্বৈতবর্জিত।
Lord Kurma (Vishnu) instructing King Indradyumna in the Ishvara Gita
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It presents the Supreme as the substratum of all experience: seemingly present as sense-qualities, yet intrinsically beyond senses—unmanifest, ever-blissful, and non-dual.
It supports nirguna-upasana in Pashupata-oriented practice: meditation that withdraws attention from sensory objects and contemplates the avyakta, non-dual Ishvara as the inner support of all.
By defining the Supreme as one, non-dual, and beyond attributes, it aligns Shaiva and Vaishnava theology under a single Ishvara/Brahman—supporting the Kurma Purana’s synthesis.
