[Śrī Ganesh V asked: Pādanamaskāraṃ Swāmiji, You said in Datta Veda that the Vedas are impure before You. When I was thinking about it, I had an understanding which I will explain below.
When we look throughout history, chaos in this world happened through atheism or misinterpretation of scriptures. Misinterpretation of scriptures is inevitable if done by a human being because a normal human being is highly biased and does not possess unimaginable intelligence or unimaginable love for all souls, including the bad ones. Vedas are neutral with themselves; they can either harm or protect the society when interpreted by humans. But when interpreted by You it will always be for the good of the world due to Your unimaginable intelligence and love. That is why human beings should always choose You when compared to Vedas. Please correct me if I am wrong. At Your divine feet, Ganesh V]
Swāmi replied:- The interpretation of the Vedas by the author of Vedas (God) Himself will be the best and perfect one because the heart of the author is best expressed by the author Himself and not by any other soul. Hence, the Gītā said by Kṛṣṇa is the best and perfect expression of the heart of the author of the Vedas, who is God. Kṛṣṇa also being the same God could express the heart of the Vedas perfectly, which is the heart of the same God. The Vedas were composed by God Brahmā, who is the energetic incarnation of God. God Kṛṣṇa, who is the human incarnation of God, expressed the true meaning of the Vedas because the same God Datta (the first energetic incarnation) exists in God Brahmā as well as in God Kṛṣṇa. The Brahmasūtras also explain the Vedas and their author is Sage Vyāsa, who is the incarnation (Aṃśāvatāra) of God Viṣṇu. God Kṛṣṇa is also the incarnation (Paripūrṇāvatāra) of God Viṣṇu. God Datta exists in both God Brahmā, God Viṣṇu and God Śiva. Hence, the Vedas, the Gītā and the Brahmasūtras are written by the same God. Śaṇkara is the incarnation of God Śiva, Rāmānuja is the incarnation of God Viṣṇu and Madhva is the incarnation of God Brahmā. Hence, all these three commentators are incarnations of God Datta only. Therefore, there is no difference among the Vedas, the Gītā, the Brahmasūtras and their three commentaries written by the three Divine preachers.
The difference is in the human beings, who receive this knowledge of God. Based on the difference among the stages of Spiritual progress of the human receivers, the same concept of God is oriented at different angles by the three Divine preachers. The followers of these three Divine preachers are fighting with each other because they have not understood the background of these commentaries. They only see how the commentary is written and do not see why the commentary is written in such a way since they do not see the background of the various stages of Spiritual aspirants. If one sees this varying background, the correlation between these three commentaries is very very easy. The three original texts and the three commentaries are written by the same one God. In fact, all the religious scriptures of all religions in the world are also written by the same one God. God allowed even atheism to flourish because atheism is the real testing method of the real devotion of a devotee. The pain that is undergone by a devotee when the atheist scolds God is directly proportional to the intensity of devotion of a devotee. Is there any cinema that is successful without the role of the villain?
