Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Purāṇic Reference<br> Viṣṇu Purāṇa describes Viṣṇu as sarva-jña (all-knowing), the source of all ṛṣis' wisdom. **Mythological Explanation<br> While many beings are ṛṣis (seers who "see" truth), the Maharṣi is the supreme seer - the seer of seers! The great ṛṣis (Vasiṣṭha, Viśvāmitra, Nārada, Vyāsa) all derive their vision from the Maharṣi. When Nārada approached Brahmā asking "Who is supreme?" Brahmā directed him to the Maharṣi. The Maharṣi's wisdom isn't learned through study but exists eternally as His essential nature. When ṛṣis meditate deeply, whose consciousness do they access? The Maharṣi's infinite awareness! The Vedas themselves are called "seen" (not created) because ṛṣis saw them in deep meditation - but what they saw was the Maharṣi's own self-knowledge! For devotees seeking wisdom, the Maharṣi teaches: intellectual study alone is insufficient. True wisdom comes through accessing the Maharṣi's consciousness through meditation, devotion, and guru-grace. The practice: before studying scriptures, invoke the Maharṣi - "O Supreme Seer, grant me eyes to see what You see!"
