Who is the Supreme Person?

Within the context of the materialistic Kali Yuga, there has been some speculative debate about who is the Supreme Person in the Vedic tradition. As we have seen, however, there is no debate within the Vedic scriptures themselves on this very important question. All the Vedic scriptures speak with one united voice in declaring that it is Sriman Narayana, and Sriman Narayana alone, who constitutes the Supreme Person. In this enlightening talk, Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya examines several verses from the Kurma Purana that definitively state who is the Supreme Person.

"That is Vishnu from whom the living beings are created and into whom the whole world gets merged. He is the Atman of all living beings. By resorting to Him one is liberated. They call Him the greatest deity beyond the imperishable and the deity resting in the cavity of the heart. He is the highest bliss; the great firmament. He is remembered as Nārāyaṇa. He is ever transcendental, unrestricted by conditions, perpetual bliss and absolutely pure.” (Kurma Purana, 22.74-76)

“Expounders of Brahman call Him the Brahman of three syllables: AUM. He is Vāsudeva, the soul of the universe, the Supreme Self and the Supreme Person. Lord Brahmā and even the great Lord Rudra (Shiva), are born from a portion of His personality. This Puruṣhottama (Supreme Person) should be propitiated by a man in accordance with the holy duties of his own varna and aśhrama. He should be propitiated without cherishing any desire in return and as a sacred vow, and not in any other way." (Kurma Purana, 22.78-81)
