SrI:
Dear Sriman JagannAthan :
You seem to be resident in India .
The questions that you are asking are central
to our doctrine and would need careful study by
you to grasp them . If you do not mind , I will be happy to
connect you to a VaishNavite Scholar close to your city
and request him to help clear your doubts . You can meet with
him .
Answers thru this medium will create more questions that
can be solved in a face to face meeting(s) setting and
help you .
Please send me a private mail about your location so
that I can take the next step. Please also let me know which
AchArya Paramparai that you belong to .
With Best wishes ,
V.Sadagopan

> I have a couple of inter-related questions:

> Are the number of individual jIvas infinite or finite?
>
> Are jIvas parts of the Brahman or need the Brahman as
> a substrate?
>
> If the Upanishad Vakya "Ayam Atma Brahma" is true, how
> does one explain the difference between Atma and
> Brahma?
>
> Keeping that flow of thought, if Atma is a "part" of
> the Brahma, why is tha Atma subject to karma and not
> the brahman? Isn't the Brahman limitless and hence
> even parts of the Brahman share the same qualities as
> the wholesome Brahman itself?

> I am sorry if this sounds too much, but these
