Read more…Hare Krishna, While studying the 3 aspects of Absolute Truth I.e. Brahman, Parmatma and Bhagvan I have one query.If Parmatma is the aspect which is Lord within the heart of every living being, then if one living being helps another, can we say that Parmatma in 'you' helped Parmatma in 'me'.
