Ramnavami Yagya Mahotsav Day 3: Grasping the Essence of Lord Vishnu
Despite being formless and sublime, Lord Vishnu is the foundation of all existence and the eternal ruler of the cosmos.
On the third day of the Ram Navami Yagya Mahotsav held at Satyug Darshan Vasundhara, Shri Sajan Ji explained the divine nature of Lord Vishnu. He emphasized that Lord Vishnu is present everywhere and fills up everything in the world. Lord Vishnu is not just omnipresent but also the power behind seamless motion and action, making him the symbol of supreme strength and wisdom.
Lord Vishnu is a being from whom this world has originated and in whom this world is situated. Lord Vishnu is also the one who controls the state and flow of this world as well. Despite being formless and sublime, Lord Vishnu is the foundation of all existence and the eternal ruler of the cosmos.
Shri Sajan Ji used the example of a banana tree to explain this further. Just like a huge banyan tree starts from a tiny seed, the entire world gets absorbed in the Supreme God like a seed during the time of destruction. Then, when it's time for creation, the world sprouts out from the Supreme God and spreads, just like the banana tree grows from a seed into a big plant. You can't separate God from this world, just like you can't separate a banana plant from its peel and leaves.
This means that from a tiny insect to giant elephants, everything and everyone has different forms and names, but in reality, anywhere you look in this gigantic world, whether it's living or non-living, it's all part of Lord Vishnu. He went on to say that whenever goodness and truth were on the decline in this world, Lord Vishnu appeared by taking various forms to eliminate evil and preserve what was righteous. These divine incarnations, known as avatars, protect the innocent and restore the moral order in the world.
