The Lost Veda Sri Brama Samhita

Lord Brahma saw Krsna directly and composed a prayer based on his realizations – a striking prayer by one who has seen the truth.

Krsna revealed himself to Brama, along with his spiritual planets. Overwhelmed by this transcendental revelation, Brama spoke these words glorifying Krsna. Brama’s awe and love permeate the text and reveal the workings of the cosmic creation.

The Brama Samhita teaches that transcendence, truth, and ultimate reality can be apprehended only by the mercy of the supreme transcendent entity, the Absolute Truth Himself, and that perception of ultimate reality is a function not of speculative reason but of direct spiritual cognition through divine revelation. This collection is taken from the fifth chapter of the Hymns of Brama, and includes verses 1 to 29.. There were 100 chapters in the Brama Samhita. This 5th chapter of the Brama Samhita was discovered by Lord Chaitanya. The other chapters have not yet been revealed.

The Brama-samhita clearly describes Brahman. K???a is the Supreme Brahman because of His unlimited knowledge, unlimited potencies, unlimited strength, unlimited influence, unlimited beauty, and unlimited renunciation. Ultimately, therefore, the word Brahman can be applied to K???a only.

Because the impersonal Brahman is the effulgence emanating as rays of K???a’s transcendental body, K???a is the Parabrahman. Everything rests on Brahman, but Brahman rests upon K???a. The material elements are accepted as the inferior energy of K???a. By their interaction, the cosmic manifestation takes place, rests on K???a, and after dissolution again enters into the body of K???a as His subtle energy. K???a is therefore the cause of both manifestation and dissolution.
