This page relates ‘Conclusion� of the study on the Prasthanatrayi Swaminarayan Bhashyam in Light of Swaminarayan Vachanamrut (Vacanamrita). His 18th-century teachings belong to Vedanta philosophy and were compiled as the Vacanamrita, revolving around the five ontological entities of Jiva, Ishvara, Maya, Aksharabrahman, and Parabrahman. Roughly 200 years later, Bhadreshdas composed a commentary (Bhasya) correlating the principles of Vachanamrut.

Parabrahman ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a revealed the existence of the five eternally distinct ontological entities; 1. ÂáÄ«±¹²¹ 2. īś±¹²¹°ù²¹ 3. ³¾Äå²âÄå 4. ´¡°ìá¹£a°ù²¹brahman (also ´¡°ìá¹£a°ù²¹ or Brahman) 5. Parabrahman (or ±Ê³Ü°ù³Üá¹£o³Ù³Ù²¹³¾²¹). Through the revelation of the above essential principle and the identification of these five distinct entities, ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a gifted the world with a novel Vedic »å²¹°ùÅ›²¹²Ô²¹.[1] Within the ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a µþ³óÄåá¹£y²¹ these five eternal entities are discussed in detail. The µþ³óÄåá¹£y²¹s and ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a ³§¾±»å»å³óÄå²Ô³Ù²¹ ³§³Ü»å³óÄå contain the Å›Äå²õ³Ù°ùÄ«²â²¹ form of the documented teachings of ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a. We analyzed in this chapter that this teaching of tattvapanchak is elaborated upon in great detail by µþ³ó²¹»å°ù±ðÅ›²¹»åÄå²õ²¹, the ±Ê°ù²¹²õ³Ù³óÄå²Ô²¹³Ù°ù²¹²âÄ« µþ³óÄåá¹£y²¹kÄra.

So, in light of ±Ê°ù²¹²õ³Ù³óÄå²Ô²¹³Ù°ù²¹²âÄ« ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a µþ³óÄåá¹£y²¹, this chapter explored to illuminate the phenomenon of the high substratum of the philosophical tenet; means the five eternal entities

  1. ÂáÄ«±¹²¹
  2. īś±¹²¹°ù²¹
  3. ³¾Äå²âÄå
  4. ´¡°ìá¹£a°ù²¹brahman (also ´¡°ìá¹£a°ù²¹ or Brahman), 
  5. Parabrahman (or ±Ê³Ü°ù³Üá¹£o³Ù³Ù²¹³¾²¹), found in the ±Ê°ù²¹²õ³Ù³óÄå²Ô²¹³Ù°ù²¹²âÄ«.

As a result of this study of this chapter, the inflection point is marked that the ³§±¹Äå³¾¾±²ÔÄå°ùÄå²â²¹á¹‡a µþ³óÄåá¹£y²¹s follow the teachings of the ³Õ²¹³¦²¹²ÔÄ峾ṛt²¹.
