FAQs
The text reconciles transcendence with cosmic governance: the supreme is “aguṇa” in essence yet can operate through guṇas for worldly processes. This supports devotional theism without denying metaphysical transcendence.
Sarga: it explicitly describes the commencement of creation through rajas and the Brahmā-function.
Rajas symbolizes the projecting power that turns potentiality into structured experience; the ‘assumption of Brahmāhood’ indicates a role-based manifestation rather than an ultimate division in the divine.
