[Advaita-l] [advaitin] rAma-krishna-shiva-durga etc. are not same in shAstric vyavahAra!!!

[Kaushik Chevendra]

"Vishnu Purana and Shiva Purana both have this common idea: One
Vishnu/Janardana or One Rudra/Shiva takes the form of the Trimurtis based
on the Three gunas sattva, etc. for the three functions of creation, etc".

If one reads or listens to the complete purana. This is not at all the
tatparya being expounded.
In both Shiva Purana and Vishnu Purana verily it's said one janardana or
Shiva takes various roopas.
But then again if one takes time to read the entire purana it's very clear
that this "turiya" Vishnu/Shiva is non-different from the roopas they have
assumed and not in control of some nirakara isvara having control of them.
It's a genuine cherry picking of verses which is giving such problematic
conclusions.
The gita bhasya is very clear . Acharya says bagavan Vishnu(in this case
because it's gita) is "eternally" possessing the control of Maya and
Aishwarya independently, while in the BSB suryadi devatas are said to be
given the Aishwarya by the lord.. He is"unborn" but appears to be born due
to his own Maya(which is further explained by anandagiri). Rejecting any
nonsense that at beginning of kalpa he is born.
Both the puranas have said that the control of Maya rests with shiva\vishnu.

If the intention is that advaita has no default form for isvara so that all
the upasakas can worship their ishta let it be so. But saying statments
that bagavan is under the control of someone, or he is born due to karma is
ridiculous and veda virodha and more importantly shankara bhasya virodha
