Summary: emphasizes that God is the absolute reality, source of all existence and consciousness, hence the devotees' devotion to Him is directed towards the personal aspect. Despite acknowledging the impersonal aspect of God, Vaisnavas believe in the supreme deity Narayana's personal form for worship and glorification. The contradiction regarding the impersonal and personal aspects is evident in the writings of Vaisnava saints like Bhattadeva who refutes arguments claiming God to be impersonal by emphasizing scriptural verses. The Vaisnava followers, including Sankaradeva, while recognizing the transcendental and formless qualities of God, mainly focus on devotion and worship towards Narayana as a personal deity with divine attributes that include bliss, omniscience, omnipotence, and the essence of existence.
