The Rigveda portrays gods as embodiments of human thought, representing various shades of consciousness and the divine. It highlights their incomplete nature and the unity behind their diversity within the broader scope of the Divine.
Tattvavada, rooted in Vedic tradition, is often misrepresented as dualistic philosophy, but its essence reflects a profound monotheism centered on Lord Narayana. Madhvacharya’s teachings emphasize the eternal differences between souls, God, and the material world, each playing a unique role in the cosmic order.
