Om̐vignette|200px|La syllabe Om en devanagari. Om, aum, (ॐ (devanagari); translittération IAST : oṃ) est une syllabe sanskrite que l'on retrouve dans plusieurs religions : l'hindouisme et ses yogas, le bouddhisme, le jaïnisme, le sikhisme, et le brahmanisme. On la nomme aussi udgitha ou pranava mantra (« mantra primordial », le mot prāṇa signifiant également « vibration vitale »). D’un point de vue hindouiste, cette syllabe représente le son originel, primordial, à partir duquel l'Univers se serait manifesté.
Hari (hindouisme)Hari (हरि) is among the primary epithets of the Hindu preserver deity Vishnu, meaning 'the one who takes away' (sins). It refers to the one who removes darkness and illusion, the one who removes all obstacles to spiritual progress. The name Hari also appears as the 650th name of Vishnu in the Vishnu Sahasranama of the Mahabharata and is considered to be of great significance in Vaishnavism.
Religion dharmiqueLa famille des religions dharmiques (appelées aussi religions indiennes ; Indic religions en anglais) regroupe les religions nées dans le sous-continent Indien, à savoir l'hindouisme, le bouddhisme, le jaïnisme et le sikhisme, ainsi que d'autres courants religieux qui en ont émergé. Les religions dharmiques sont une des trois plus grandes familles de religions dans le monde, les deux autres étant les religions abrahamiques et les religions taoïques.
Divinités du Sanatana DharmaLe concept du Principe Suprême (Brahman), équivalent de Dieu, selon le Sanatana Dharma (सनातन धर्म) (ou Tradition primordiale) dont l'Hindouisme classique et l'ancienne tradition védique (Bharata Dharma) sont la forme indienne, a deux aspects principaux: Le premier est l’aspect absolu, non manifesté et inconditionné (nirguna brahman). Il est le substrat de l’univers. Le second est son aspect qualifié et conditionné (saguna brahman), principe de la manifestation cosmique. C'est la personnalité divine ou Seigneur (Ishvara).
Dieu personnelA personal god, or personal goddess, is a deity who can be related to as a person instead of as an impersonal force, such as the Absolute. In the scriptures of the Abrahamic religions, God is described as being a personal creator, speaking in the first person and showing emotion such as anger and pride, and sometimes appearing in anthropomorphic shape. In the Pentateuch, for example, God talks with and instructs his prophets and is conceived as possessing volition, emotions (such as anger, grief and happiness), intention, and other attributes characteristic of a human person.
NâradaNârada (sanskrit : nārada ; devanagari : नारद) est un personnage récurrent dans la mythologie de l'hindouisme, où il apparaît à la fois comme l'archétype du sage (rishi) et comme le messager et le compagnon des dieux (deva). Nârada est aussi l'inventeur de la vînâ, le premier instrument à cordes. On le représente souvent volant dans les airs, une vînâ à la main, entonnant des chants à la gloire de Vishnou, dont il est un avatar selon le Bhagavata Purana. Un autre de ses noms est Vishnou-Yashas, gloire de Vishnou.
BhagavataThe Bhagavata tradition, also called Bhagavatism, refers to an ancient religious sect that traced its origin to the region of Mathura. After its syncretism with the Brahmanical tradition of Vishnu, Bhagavatism became a pan-Indian tradition by the second century BCE, according to R.C. Majumdar. Historically, Bhagavatism corresponds to the development of a popular theistic movement in India, departing from the elitist sacrificial rites of Vedism, and initially focusing on the worship of the Vrishni hero Vāsudeva in the region of Mathura.
God (word)The English word god comes from the Old English god, which itself is derived from the Proto-Germanic ǥuđán. Its cognates in other Germanic languages include guþ, gudis (both Gothic), guð (Old Norse), god (Old Saxon, Old Frisian, and Old Dutch), and got (Old High German). The Proto-Germanic meaning of ǥuđán and its etymology is uncertain. It is generally agreed that it derives from a Proto-Indo-European neuter passive perfect participle .
Achintya Bheda AbhedaAchintya-Bheda-Abheda (अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद, in IAST) is a school of Vedanta representing the philosophy of inconceivable one-ness and difference. In Sanskrit achintya means 'inconceivable', bheda translates as 'difference', and abheda translates as 'non-difference'. The Gaudiya Vaishnava religious tradition employs the term in relation to the relationship of creation and creator (Krishna, Svayam Bhagavan), between God and his energies.
