## Diimadrushti: The Unity of the Ordinary and the Omniscient
(357) It is logically proven that one recognizes and believes in only one Omniscient. Therefore, even those who follow different philosophies, all recognize the same Omniscient, the same unified form. Thus, there cannot be any difference among the devotees who worship the Omniscient.
**Verse 105:**
"The special, however, is not known by all those who are not omniscient. No one attains Him, because He is not fully known by all."
**Explanation:**
The above discussion established the unity of the ordinary and the Omniscient. Now, someone might argue that there is a difference in the special. The answer to this is that the special difference in the Omniscient cannot be fully known by all those who are not omniscient. Because they themselves are not omniscient, they cannot fully perceive the Omniscient. How can they know the special, the difference, in the Omniscient? Even if they have a general understanding, they cannot progress in their knowledge of the special. Thus, it is impossible for all those who are not omniscient to fully understand the special form of the Omniscient. Because the complete can understand the complete, but how can the incomplete understand the complete?
Therefore, any difference imagined about the Omniscient based on such understanding is meaningless. For example, the Keshava people call Him eternal and omnipresent, while others call Him temporal and not omnipresent. The Buddhists call Him momentary, and so on. All these differences are meaningless because:
1. The special knowledge, the complete knowledge of all aspects, cannot be attained by those who are not omniscient.
2. Due to the differences in their philosophies, there is often conflict.
**Commentary:**
"The special, however, is not known by all those who are not omniscient. No one attains Him, because He is not fully known by all."
This means that even if someone has a general understanding of the Omniscient, they cannot fully comprehend the special aspects of the Omniscient. This is because they are not omniscient themselves. Therefore, no one who is not omniscient can truly attain the Omniscient.
