Significado

The people replied, “You are a sannyāsī, a renunciant; therefore You are a moving Nārāyaṇa [jaṅgama-nārāyaṇa].”

Aquellas personas contestaron: «Tú eres un sannyāsī, un renunciante; por eso eres un Nārāyaṇa que camina [jaṅgama-nārāyaṇa]».

This is the viewpoint of Māyāvāda philosophy. Māyāvāda philosophy supports the impersonalist view that Nārāyaṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has no form. One can imagine impersonal Brahman in any form — as Viṣṇu, Lord Śiva, Vivasvān, Gaṇeśa or Devī Durgā. According to the Māyāvāda philosophy, when one becomes a sannyāsī he is to be considered a moving Nārāyaṇa. Māyāvāda philosophy holds that the real Nārāyaṇa does not move because, being impersonal, He has no legs. Thus according to Māyāvāda philosophy, whoever becomes a sannyāsī declares himself Nārāyaṇa. Foolish people accept such ordinary human beings as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called vivarta-vāda.

Ése es el punto de vista de la filosofía māyāvāda. La filosofía māyāvāda sostiene la visión impersonalista de que Nārāyaṇa, la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, no tiene forma. El Brahman impersonal se puede imaginar de cualquier forma: como Viṣṇu, el Señor Śiva, Vivasvān, Gaṇeśa o Devī Durgā. Según la filosofía māyāvāda, cuando alguien se hace sannyāsī, se le debe considerar un Nārāyaṇa que camina. La filosofía māyāvāda sostiene que el verdadero Nārāyaṇa no Se mueve, porque, al ser impersonal, no tiene piernas. Así, siguiendo la filosofía māyāvāda, todo el que entra en la orden de sannyāsa dice de sí mismo que es Nārāyaṇa. Los necios aceptan a esos seres humanos comunes y corrientes como Suprema Personalidad de Dios. Eso se denomina vivarta-vāda.

In this regard, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura comments that jaṅgama-nārāyaṇa means that the impersonal Brahman takes a shape and moves here and there in the form of a Māyāvādī sannyāsī. The Māyāvāda philosophy confirms this. Daṇḍa-grahaṇa-mātreṇa naro nārāyaṇo bhavet: “Simply by accepting the daṇḍa of the order of sannyāsa, one is immediately transformed into Nārāyaṇa.” Therefore Māyāvādī sannyāsīs address one another by saying oṁ namo nārāyaṇāya. In this way one Nārāyaṇa worships another Nārāyaṇa.

En relación con esto, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura comenta que jaṅgama-nārāyaṇa significa que el Brahman impersonal adopta una forma y se mueve de un lugar a otro en forma de sannyāsī māyāvādī. Esto lo confirma la filosofía māyāvāda: daṇḍa-grahaṇa-mātreṇa naro nārāyaṇo bhavet: «Por el simple hecho de recibir la daṇḍa de la orden de sannyāsa, la persona se transforma inmediatamente en Nārāyaṇa». Por esa razón, los sannyāsīs māyāvādīs se dirigen unos a otros diciendo: «oṁ namo nārāyaṇāya». De ese modo, un Nārāyaṇa adora a otro Nārāyaṇa.

Actually an ordinary human being cannot become Nārāyaṇa. As the chief Māyāvādī sannyāsī, Śrī Śaṅkarācārya, says, nārāyaṇaḥ paro ’vyaktāt: “Nārāyaṇa is not a creation of this material world. Nārāyaṇa is above the material creation.” Due to their poor fund of knowledge, Māyāvādī sannyāsīs think that Nārāyaṇa, the Absolute Truth, takes birth as a human being and that when He realizes this, He becomes Nārāyaṇa again. They never consider why Nārāyaṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, would accept an inferior position as a human being and then again become Nārāyaṇa when He is perfect. Why should Nārāyaṇa be imperfect? Why should He appear as a human being? Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu very nicely explained these points while at Vṛndāvana.

En realidad, un ser humano corriente no puede volverse Nārāyaṇa. Śrī Śaṅkārācarya, el principal de los sannyāsīs māyāvādīs, dice: nārāyaṇaḥ paro ’vyaktāt: «Nārāyaṇa no es una creación del mundo material. Nārāyaṇa está por encima de la creación material». Debido a su escaso conocimiento, los sannyāsīs māyāvādīs piensan que Nārāyaṇa, la Verdad Absoluta, nace como ser humano, y que, cuando comprende este hecho, Se vuelve Nārāyaṇa de nuevo. Nunca se plantean por qué razón Nārāyaṇa, la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, va a aceptar la posición inferior de un ser humano y Se va volver otra vez Nārāyaṇa, una vez alcanzada la perfección. ¿Por qué tendría Nārāyaṇa que ser imperfecto? ¿Por qué debería aparecer como ser humano? Durante Su estancia en Vṛndāvana, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu explicó estos puntos con gran claridad.
