Kayastha Kula Anushasan /

For the execution of the acts of creation (utpatti), sustenance (sthiti), dissolution (sahra), restraint (nigraha), and grace (anugraha) of the universe, Bhagavn, the Sat-cit-nanda-svarpa Sarvevara (Supreme Lord of Existence-Consciousness-Bliss), revealed Himself in this world as Hirayagarbhtmaka Brahm (the creator), Viu (the sustainer), iva (the dissolver), akti as the power of restraint, and Gaea as the embodiment of grace. On the philosophical plane, Bhagavn alone is proven to be the abhinna-nimitta-updna kraa (non-different efficient and material cause) of this creation. That very Sat-cit-nanda-kanda Bhagavn manifests Himself in this world as Prakti, and its pacatattvtmik akti. Moreover, He also expresses Himself in all forms, thereby establishing His sarvarpat (all-form encompassing nature). It is by Bhagavns grace that each of the five elements gives rise to a corresponding indriya (sense), and through the aid of ahakra-catuaya (the fourfold ego), the jva, who is a reflection of Bhagavn Himself, perceives the world. Furthermore, it should be meditated upon that Bhagavn alone is the origin of both lineage (vaa) and guru-parampar (lineage of teachers) in this world. From Him arise both these traditions. Of these, the uninterrupted lineage (avicchinna vaa-parampar) is what is designated by the term varrama. Therefore, the Nda and Bindu traditions must be protected.This book is a humble effort in that very direction.
