Brahman

**Parabrahman**, also known as **Brahman**, is the name of the One Principle, the essence of all that makes up the cosmos according to the Hindus. He is the Supreme Being venerated in Hinduism from whose divine will Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu emanated.

## Overview

Brahman is the personification of the highest universal principle, he is beyond any description and concept. He is infinite and eternal in ever possible senses of the words. Less of a being and more of a metaphysical concept, he is the single unity that binds the universe together even despite the universes diversity.

Brahman is the Absolute God venerated by the Hindus and a very mysterious Being. According to the Hindus, He occupies the highest place, as the creator and enjoyer of all creation. He is the Light and Delight of the Universe, the Ruler and the Lord, without a beginning and without an end, indestructible, indescribable, blissfully immersed in Himself and all by Himself. The concept of Brahman and His relationship with individual souls and Nature and His manifestations are the subject of many schools of Hindu philosophy. Some schools believe that He is both the efficient and material cause of creation.

Some believe that He is only an efficient cause and that Prakriti is the material cause. There is also considerable speculation about the relationship between Brahman and the individual souls. Some believe that both are the same and some believe that they are different.

Despite having some similarities with the God, he should not be considered as such. God does not emanate the Creation as Brahman, but creates out of nothing (ex nihilo). God is also not one with creation, despite being omnipresent, God is totally separate from His creation, being more distinct from Creation than day and night, God brings things from non-existence into existence, not from Himself.

## Appearance

Strictly speaking everything in the universe is a manifestation of Brahman only. Innumerable are his forms and manifestation, but He is One and Alone, without a beginning and without an end. He pervades everything, is hidden in everything and enveloped by all that is here and elsewhere. In the Upanishads we come across many verses on Brahman extolling his universal dimensions and infinity. If the Absolute is eternal and timeless and is not subject to any causative principle or the dimensions of time and space, how could there be any gap between Him and His creation?

## Personality

It is difficult to describe His personality, however, the Brahman personality itself is impersonal, without desire, without will, words, actions or thought. Trying to understand the consciousness of Brahman is the same as trying to understand the consciousness of the Universe, he may have one and he may not have one either. It can be said that, in a sense, he is personal, as he is linked to the human psyche, which inevitably makes him a conscious being. He can assume a consciousness similar to human consciousness, being able to communicate and converse with a person as a personal being.

## Powers and Abilities

**Alpha Reality:** Brahman possesses limitless power over the Alpha Reality, the one encompassing all realities and their origins, giving Brahman the omnipotent ability to create, manipulate and erase all forms of omniversal realities, capable of making Brahman the most powerful being in all of existence and beyond.

**Aspect Manifestation:** Brahman can summon a physical manifestation of a certain part or facet of oneself, another person, an object or even conceptual principles. These manifestations can come in any shape or size and can be literally anything, but they tend to look similar to the person that they were summoned from.

**Autopotence:** Brahman is all-powerful over themselves, including their existence. They can make their existence ineffable and independent of all laws, also rewriting themselves on absolutely all levels, including structure, origin, conclusion, and many more. With absolute control over themselves, they can essentially do anything as long as it stems from their own existence, like granting oneself all powers/abilities, becoming one with everything, attaining true perfection, etc.

**Complete Arsenal:** Brahman has every imaginable, unimaginable, possible, impossible, existent, non-existent, known, unknown, thinkable, unthinkable, created, uncreated, discovered, undiscovered, fictional, nonfictional, perceived, unperceived, etc., power/ability ever, regardless of any flaws or limitations, Brahman harbors them all. This enables them to expand on/affect anything from the simplest physical phenomena to concept and finally, the Omniverse and beyond. For example, Brahman can possess everything from Enhanced Strength and Flight to powerful abilities that go well beyond standard abilities.

**Indeterminacy:** Brahman is beyond all scaling and definition, which can extend to various attributes of their being, such as power, speed, strength, stamina, intelligence, etc.

**Masculinity Aspect Manifestation:** Brahman embodies the conceptual attributes, traits, and behaviors of masculinity/manhood and gains power from aspects they represent each reflecting the ideal status of being by their physicality, mentality, spirituality, and so on.

**Pantheistic Deity:** Brahman with this power is a oneness deity, making Brahman both The Creator and Creation. Brahman is an all-encompassing being of which everything is part of or exists within them. The universe/nature, and they are identical or in a nutshell, are at times totally immanent in creation. All forms of reality may then be considered either modes of Brahman, or identical with it. The universe (in the sense of the totality of all existence) and Brahman are identical.

**Omnineutrality:** Omnineutrality (“all-neutral”) is the power to have no limited boundary to neutrality, making them one of the most ambiguous beings in all the cosmos. They come in two specific flavors like Omnimalevolence and Omnibenevolence.

**Omnipotence:** Omnipotence (from Latin: *Omni Potens*, lit. "all power") is a quality most commonly attributed to deities in monotheistic religions. The concept of omnipotence has been represented in a myriad of vastly different ways - Pantheism: where being omnipotent is synonymous with being one with everything, Agnosticism: which postulates that God and the omnipotence it possesses is incomprehensible, Monotheism: where there can only be omnipotent being, etc. - all of which have differing views on the attributes of omnipotence and hence their 'level of power'. Some philosophers claim that omnipotence can do that which is only confined within the realms of human logic, while others claim that omnipotence can do anything and everything, no matter how contradictory. However, due to the nature of this concept, the existence of omnipotence is impossible to prove, much less fictional characters possessing omnipotence.

**Unity:** Brahman is one with totality itself; they are absolutely everything and anything all at once in a single being. Brahman either has always existed this way or they've willingly merged to become completely unified with all things in its entirety. As a result, they are made up of absolutely everything without exception, giving them a "body or physiology" one with all things as well as encompassing all things beyond. Of course, Brahman is realistically far beyond what would normally be considered as having a body or physiology when all of existence itself is their "body”.

## Quotes

*"I'm not sure if I can help you with this. I was raised a Buddhist, not a Hindu. Despite the similarity between the two philosophical beliefs, they are not entirely the same thing. As far as I know, Brahman is this transcendent metaphysical force, the Ultimate Reality, and the single binding unity behind diversity in all that exists the universe." - Unknown.*

*"The Self is Brahman." - Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 4.4.5.*

*"I am the beginning of one's sense of self. I am the starting point. I have existed since the dawn of time, so I have seen many mistakes. But not even I know what is right. What is right is defined by the desires of whoever has power." - Brahman.*

*"Aham Brahmasi I Am Brahman." - Unpanisads.*
