94:3.1 While the highest [[phase]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahamanism Brahmanism] was hardly a [[religion]], it was truly one of the most [[noble]] reaches of the [[mortal]] [[mind]] into the [[domains]] of [[philosophy]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphysics metaphysics]. Having started out to [[discover]] final [[reality]], the Indian mind did not stop until it had [[speculated]] about almost every [[phase]] of [[theology]] excepting the [[essential]] [[dual]] [[concept]] of [[religion]]: the [[existence]] of the [[Universal Father]] of all [[universe]] [[creatures]] and the [[fact]] of the [[ascending]] [[experience]] in the [[universe]] of these very [[creatures]] as they seek to [[attain]] the [[eternal]] Father, who has commanded them to be [[perfect]], even as he is perfect.

94:3.2 In the [[concept]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman Brahman] the [[minds]] of those days truly grasped at the [[idea]] of some all-pervading [[Absolute]], for this [[postulate]] was at one and the same [[time]] identified as [[creative]] [[energy]] and [[cosmic]] [[reaction]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman Brahman] was conceived to be beyond all definition, capable of being [[comprehended]] only by the [[successive]] negation of all [[finite]] [[qualities]]. It was definitely a [[belief]] in an absolute, even an [[infinite]], [[being]], but this [[concept]] was largely devoid of [[personality]] [[attributes]] and was therefore not experiencible by [[individual]] religionists.

94:3.3 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman Brahman]-[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narayana Narayana] was conceived as the [[Absolute]], the [[infinite]] IT IS, the primordial [[creative]] [[potency]] of the potential [[cosmos]], the [[Universal]] [[Self]] existing static and potential throughout all [[eternity]]. Had the [[philosophers]] of those days been able to make the next advance in [[deity]] conception, had they been able to conceive of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman Brahman] as [[associative]] and [[creative]], as a [[personality]] approachable by created and [[evolving]] [[beings]], then might such a teaching have become the most advanced portraiture of [[Deity]] on [[Urantia]] since it would have [[encompassed]] the first five levels of [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Foreword#DEITY_AND_DIVINITY total deity function] and might possibly have envisioned the remaining two.

94:3.4 In certain [[phases]] the [[concept]] of the One Universal Oversoul as the [[totality]] of the summation of all [[creature]] [[existence]] led the Indian [[philosophers]] very close to the truth of the [[Supreme Being]], but this [[truth]] availed them naught because they failed to evolve any reasonable or [[rational]] [[personal]] approach to the [[attainment]] of their theoretic [[monotheistic]] goal of Brahman-Narayana.

94:3.5 The [[karma]] principle of [[causality]] [[continuity]] is, again, very close to the [[truth]] of the repercussional [[synthesis]] of all [[time-space]] [[actions]] in the [[Deity]] [[presence]] of the [[Supreme]]; but this postulate never provided for the [[co-ordinate]] [[personal]] [[attainment]] of [[Deity]] by the [[individual]] religionist, only for the [[ultimate]] engulfment of all [[personality]] by the Universal Oversoul.

94:3.6 The [[philosophy]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_Brahmanism Brahmanism] also came very near to the [[realization]] of the indwelling of the [[Thought Adjusters]], only to become [[perverted]] through the misconception of [[truth]]. The teaching that the [[soul]] is the indwelling of the Brahman would have paved the way for an advanced [[religion]] had not this [[concept]] been completely vitiated by the [[belief]] that there is no [[human]] [[individuality]] apart from this indwelling of the [[Universal]] [[One]].

94:3.7 In the [[doctrine]] of the merging of the [[self]]-[[soul]] with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-soul Oversoul], the theologians of India failed to [[provide]] for the [[survival]] of something [[human]], something new and [[unique]], something born of the [[union]] of the will of man and the will of God. The teaching of the [[soul]]'s return to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman Brahman] is closely [[parallel]] to the [[truth]] of the [[Adjuster]]'s return to the bosom of the [[Universal Father]], but there is something distinct from the [[Adjuster]] which also survives, the [[morontial]] [[counterpart]] of [[mortal]] [[personality]]. And this [[vital]] [[concept]] was fatally absent from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upanishads#Philosophy Brahmanic philosophy].

94:3.8 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upanishads#Philosophy Brahmanic philosophy] has approximated many of the [[facts]] of the [[universe]] and has approached numerous [[cosmic]] [[truths]], but it has all too often fallen [[victim]] to the error of failing to [[differentiate]] between the several [[levels]] of [[reality]], such as [[absolute]], [[transcendental]], and [[finite]]. It has failed to take into account that what may be [[finite]]-[[illusory]] on the [[absolute]] level may be absolutely real on the [[finite]] level. And it has also taken no cognizance of the [[essential]] [[personality]] of the [[Universal Father]], who is personally contactable on all levels from the [[evolutionary]] [[creature]]'s [[limited]] [[experience]] with [[God]] on up to the limitless experience of the [[Eternal Son]] with the [[Paradise Father]].
