The Absolute Eternal All-knowledge

Two sorts of temperaments lead the activities of animated beings. One thought advocates the stupefaction of the animation; whereas the other is fond of maintaining the progressive manifestation. When the tracing work of the Fountainhead is at issue, the latter is found to retain the manifestive Energy of the Fountainhead, and the former goes on targeting the origin in non-manifested agent. The two different predilections work side by side combating each other’s flow. But this does not affect at all the Absolute position of the Fountainhead. Those impersonalists who are busy with stopping the intellectual motion in the final stage, differ from the view of another section of the group, who maintain that the Fountainhead should be fully intellectual and that there should not be any chamber of reciprocal situation among the sentients. The elimination of all barricades between the observer and the Observed, it is expected by the impersonalists, would bring them to their desired end of the fullness of Absolute Knowledge. By the side of the above two different views there is a third viz., that of the progressionists which also need not be discouraged by the Impersonalists. The very anthropomorphic idea that actuates the brains of all formulative combatants terminates in worldly non-personation; whereas, the personalists do not vouchsafe the materialistic phase of the Fountainhead when they throw off the anthropomorphic invasions of the impersonalists.

The impersonalists in most cases are found to place themselves in the pedantic platform and are prone to discourage the views of the personalists by putting their imperfect conception of worldly empiricism. But this little bit of weak argument is quite inadequate to wipe off from the minds of the personlists the eternal existence of all knowledge and bliss. The Scriptures of both the parties involve conflicting vies to each other with a result of condemning the opposite views. But the Fountainhead does not claim to submit to a particular view for its, his or her existence. The scorning epithets uttered through the lips of contending parties do not trouble at all the Absolute Fountainhead of the cherished conceptions. So the matter is left open for an individual to decide.

When we take into account the theme of the Personal Fountainhead we are found to shake off the Impersonalist as the material manifestation of this universe enshrouds the transcendental background of unalloyed spirit. Though the personal aspects appear as imperfect or transitory in our present platform, still, if we trace the cause of such animation, we cannot dismiss the idea of the Fountainhead not having possessed the progressive function of eternal manifestations. With this view, we trace the eternal relationship of the ever existing spiritual world. The indications present in us have been beautifully penned by the literatures in five different relationships. But when we speak of transcendental literature where Nature is manifestive, we find the Observed of all observers in One. The fragmentary parts that form the whole may be counted with the help of numerals and we can trace the eternal relationship between the One Whole and His conciliatory parts consisting of sentient and insentient components. The analytical process will show to build up again the synthetic philosophy. The relationship is delineated by the pen of the rhetoricians in five order, among which the Consorthood of the Fountainhead is one, besides four others viz., Sonhood, Friendhood, Masterhood and Concordanthood of the Absolute. All the different relations are not included in all religious revelations. Some theistic savants would not possibly admit the first two and half relationships on the ground of their being apparently incompatible with their own reverential attitude; but though at the first sight, they seem to be non-reverential and non-submissive, which are opposed to the servitorial functions, still the greater scrutinisers of theistic themes have discovered the revealed manifestations of all the five orders of relations referred to above. We are always tied by one of the five different relationships to every other entity in this world. When our living tie is meant for the Fountainhead, we do not ascribe any plurality in the same, which would bring conflicting rupture by their different locations as experienced on this present human platform. When the Absolute Eternal All-knowledge desires through causeless grace to attract our eternal society, we regain our unalloyed existence which is void of all ignorance and wrong sensation. We sentient beings are apt to be misled by the duping influence of transitory limited things which cannot suitably cope with the activities of our pure souls. In the array of transcendental literature some interceptions are observed by the critic involved in his sensuous wranglings in the estimation of this mundane world’s relativity.
