Guest guest Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Ramakrishna Parmahamsa (1836-1886 CE) says: 461. Once a dispute arose among the learned men at the court of the Maharajah of Burdwan as to who was the greater of the two Deities, Siva and Vishnu. Some of the courtiers said that Siva was the greater, while the others gave the preference to Vishnu. When the dispute grew hot, a wise Pandit remarked, "Sir, I have seen neither Siva nor Vishnu. How can I say who is the greater of the two?" Do not try to compare one Deity with another. When you see one of the Deities, you will come to know that they are all the manifestations of the same Brahman. At present I am reading the Book, Sayings of Ramakrishna.Krishnaraj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
