Pranami
Dharma: Basic
Tenets:
The absolute bliss (bliss of brahm) is our Satguru,
Our relation in the world is through Akshar the imperishable.The
Supreme the ultimate is beyond imperishable Akshar and he is unique
conscious life source.
Brahman:
Is
considered as 'Creative Non-dualism' or Sva Lila Advait, beyond
'Formfulness' and 'Formlessness', i.e. 'Pure Formfulness' (Shuddha
Sakkar), Sacchidanad form, Eternally complete with Divine-form,
Ever Adoloscent form, Infinite, replete with Divine materials!
Attainment
of Brahman
The main means of attaining Brahman, is One-pointed Para-Prem
Lakhshana Bhakti (Similar to Gopi Bhava, filled with Sweetness,
and the attitude of a Chaste woman).
Jagat
(Maya):
Through the mere desire of Brahman this world has manifested.
The entire Universe with the 5 Elements and 3 Gunas, 14
worlds, Eight coverings, Void-Nothingness, Nature, Purush,
it is merely self-imagined and fleeting and perishable.The
creator of this Universe, Brahman and His Power is Eternal.
Jiv:
In the world, mainly there are three types of Jivas (Atmas)
i)
Brahmasrishti - They are ever-liberated (The word 'Srishti'
used on them, is merely for adornment !). In Brahmadham,
Brahman's inconceivable power is itself called Brahmatma.
HIS souls only have only come into the world in the form
of 'Surtas' to see the Illusory play. Shri Prannathji has
called them Brahmatmas. They are free ! They have to only
wake-up and experience their original form.
ii)
Easwari Srishti - Souls yearning
for liberation- They are located in Akshar Brahma, the creator
of this Universe. They merely experience the Illusory play.
They have the yearning to attain the Bliss of Aksharatit's
Divine Abode. Even while remaining in the world they strive
to attain this. That is why they are called 'Mumukshus'.
iii)
Jiv Srishti - Bound-free (Baddha Mukt) Revolving in
the cycle of Birth and Death, the experiencers of the sorrows
and joys of the world are called Jivas. They are partners
of the worldly-play. They are dream-creation. Only through
the mercy of the Brahmasrishtis, attaining freedom from
the cycle of birth and death, they can attain Eternal Happiness
and liberation. That is why they are called Bound-free (Baddha
Mukt)

Brahma
Lila:
Being the very form of Sacchidanand, Brahman
naturally experiences Sacchidananda ! When HE desires to
make His limbmaids and Akshar Brahma experience 'Sacchidananda',
at that time He gets the creation of Universe done through
Akshar Brahma. In this work of creation He includes His
power (avesha). Inspite of the Lila performed through His
Proxy power form, having taken place in this perishable
world, it is called as 'Brahma LIla'. In this manner Shri
Krishna's Lila is considered as 'Brahma Lila', because,
Parabrahma Aksharatit Shri Krishna Paramatmas's Proxy-power
descended on this Earth also in the form of Shri
Krishna !
Among
Shri Krishna's Lilas, the Baal Lila of 11 years and 52 days,
and the Eternal Raas Lila, have been acknowledged as 'Brahma
Lila'. Even the Raas Lila has been considered as being of
three types - Real, Illusory and Transactional (Vaastavi,
Pratibhasiki and Vyaavahariki) ! Out of these three, the
Real (Vaastavi) Raas Lila is Eternal (Undivided) and main.
Because this lila has been performed through the Proxy-power
form of Aksharatit Brahma Shri Krishna.

Mantra:
The 16-lettered Maha Mantra, 'Shri Tartam Mantra' given
by Aksharatit Shri Krishna - Shri Rajji, is considered
as 'All-sin-destroyer' and 'Liberation-bestower'.
Shastra:
All trustworthy Scriptures have been given place of
honour according to their respective significance or
otherwise. Among them, Shrimad Bhagavat has acquired
special significance.
Evidence
(Praman):
Direct (Perceptible) evidence, Inferential evidence,
Comparative evidence and Sound evidence - these 4 evidences
have been acknowledged. For determining or ascertaining
Brahma Tattva and HIS form, out of these four, it is
possible only through Sound (words). Therefore, Sound-evience
(Sabda Praman) has been accorded special significance
(or validity).

Purush:
Three Purushas have
been acknowledged in the form of Kshar, Akshar, and Aksharatit.
Actually only Brahman is called as Purush. From the point of
view of Lila, His three forms have been considered.
-
Kshar
Purush - The entire Universe -
i.e. 14 worlds, Eight coverings, Jyoti Swaroop, Adi Narayan,
Void formlessness, etc., being perishable - is called Kshar.
This gross Universe is borne by Bhagavan Narayan in a subtle-form.
That is why Narayan himself is Kshar Purush.
-
Akshar
Purush - The one who creates and dissolves countless
such perishable Universes, is called Akshar Purush, and
he only is Akshar Brahma. By his mere imagination creation,
sustenance and dissolution of Countless Universes take place.
He has 4 Quarters (Paad), which are called Avyakrit, Sabalik,
Keval and Satswaroop. The Universes are created through
Avyakrit.
-
Aksharatit
Purush - Akshar Brahma is HIS limb-form. Such an Omnipotent,
Non-dual Brahman is known by the names Aksharatit Brahman,
Uttam Purush, Poorna Brahma, etc. 'Ekamevaadvitiyam Brahma'
- is in fact, the Nondual Brahma. Akshar Brahma is contained
in HIM; the perishable Universe is merely Akshar's imagination
! That is why, when this kind of Universe gets dissolved
during the Mahapralay, at that time, what remains is only
the Imperishable Akshar. Actually, Akshar being the limb-form
of Aksharatit, what remains is the One and only Poornabrahma
Aksharatit Purush.

Pooja:
Mental Pooja is considered to be the best. But, in
customary practice, the need for a symbol being unavoidable,
in a symbolic form, the Holy Book, (i.e. the Svasamved-knowledge
described by Shri Prannathji, or the Shri Tartam Sagar) which
explains Poorna Brahma Paramatma's name, Abode, Form, and His
Lilas - is installed in the Shrines and worshipped, deeming
it worship-worthy.
