In the next three Sandarbhas (beginning with Bhagavat Sandarbha), Jīva Gosvāmī elaborates on the topic of ontology (sambandha-jñāna). He begins this book by establishing Bhagavān, or God, the Supreme Person as the most complete manifestation of nondual Reality. This Reality is realized in three aspects: as Brahman (God without any qualities, the Unqualified Absolute), as Paramātmā (the Immanent Self, residing in each of us), and as Bhagavān (the all-powerful, all-blissful, infinitely charming playful Person).
This course is a systematic study of the book which analyzes each of these aspects and demonstrates with conclusive evidence that Bhagavān is the complete and indivisible Absolute Reality. All other manifestations are dependent on, and thus subordinate to, Him. Bhagavān’s diverse energies, qualities, name, form, associates, and abode are intrinsic aspects of His essential being.
మనుషులను నియంత్రించడానికి రెండు మార్గాలు ఉన్నాయి: ప్రేమ మరియు చట్టం. ప్రేమ లేనప్పుడు, చట్టాలు అవసరం. తక్కువ ప్రేమ ఎక్కువ చట్టాలకు దారితీస్తుంది. అందుకే ప్రపంచవ్యాప్తంగా మరిన్ని చట్టాలు తయారు చేయబడుతున్నాయి.
