AVIKRUTA-PARINAMA-VADA

AVIKRUTA-PARINAMA-VADA (unmodified transformation):

When Upadana i.e. material cause (gold) results into the form of the effect (ornaments), and even when no modification or alteration takes place in its original form, in that case such effect is called Avikruta-parinama (unmodified transformation). When any object results into an un-modified form, its transformation is possible in its original form. For xample: golden ornaments are Avikrtaparinama of gold. Even though gold is transformed into the form of the ornaments, no kind of transformation or alteration takes, place in the fundamental reality or the attributes of gold. For this reason, by melting the ornaments, the transformation of gold in its former state is also possible.

According to Avikruta Parinama Vada, Brahma is Satchidanand. Out of these Sat element Jad and Jagat is existed or emerged. In Jagat the element of Chit and Anand is concealed. Thus Brahma is a material cause of Jagat. Brahma and Jagat is not different. It is like we cannot remove wood from wooden chair. Everything is existance of God. Similarly Brahma is present in Jagat. Brahma is centre point without any circumference. God is present everywhere. 'Sat' element of Brahma is in form of Jagat, 'Chit' element in form of Jiva and in jiva the bliss is concealed. Jiva is atomic, eternal and indifferent from Brahma.

The main aim is to create a univerese has no purpose other than doing a divine play. Brahmasutra says, "Lokvattu LilaKevalyam" To create a universe is a play of Brahma. The play is the main aim of Jagat. According to Shruti it is said he cannot play alon, so he took different forms. Act of playing is joy, joy is not outside the game. This play of Brahma is spontaneous and as per rules. This leela is full of Bliss and Nector (Rasa). To understand the play Devotion is important.

According to the Western Philosophy they beleive in 'Ghost', were as we have no such thing like Ghost. Spirit is nothing but the dissatisfied soul. Day light demises Ghost. Also saints say to remember God so that Ghost run away. According to Christian Religion there is always a continious fight between God and Ghost. In our philosophy we say them as 'Asur'. These are degenerated human beings, who simply believes in eating, sleeping and enjoying.

THE UNIVERSE IS THE UN-MODIFIED TRANSFORMATION OF BRAHMAN:

Brahman is verily both the instrumental cause and the material cause of the universe. No other thing except Brahman plays the part in the creation of the universe. Brahma himself is the creator of the universe and Brahma himself results into the form of the universe, though Brahman holds myriads of names and orms of the universe, no kind of modification occurs in the form of Brahman. Though gold that results into the ornaments it remains gold. And gold does not become extinct for being made/transformed into ornaments. Similarly, though Brahman results into the universe, Brahman himself remains as Brahman.

How so much water may be drawn out from the sea, how much of it may be evaporated by heat, even then the sea remains equally perfect. Though Brahman results into the imperfect, confined and limited universe, no kind of loss occurs in the perfect-ness the endless-ness and the vastness of Brahman. Again, when ornaments are melted, their transformation into their former state i.e. gold is possible.

Similarly, when Brahman wishes to bring out the deluge, he can merge the universe in his own svarupa. At this time the universe becomes non-different (identical) with Brahman. It is for this reason that Sri Vallabhacarya considers the universe as Avikruta-Parinama of Brahman.
