Vedic Gods to Brahman to Avatharas

The full revelation of the three persons of the Trinity occurs through the incarnate Son of God Jesus Christ and through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless God has always acted as a Trinity not only in the times of the Old Testament but throughout the history of humanity in its religions and also in Hinduism. The series Is Saccidananda the Trinity? is a reciprocal examination of Saccidananda and the Trinity. The first volume of the book series Vedic Gods to Brahman to Avatharas: Is Saccidananda the Trinity? 1provides an overview of indirect expressions of the experience of the mystery of the Trinity as Saccidananda from the Vedas through the Upanishads to the Tapaniya Upanishad. The experience of God through nature the Vedic gods turned in the Upanishads to the impersonal absolute Brahman. In the Tapaniya Upanishads Saguna Brahman remained not only on the level of Maya illusion but entered human history as personal gods as avatars such as Rama Brahman and Krishna Brahman. Whether Rama or Krishna were real persons in history or whether some prominent persons in history were deified is beyond the scope of this book.
