Brahman With and Without Qualities (Saguṇa & Nirguṇa)
A God you can love, or a reality beyond all names — which is ultimate?
Is the absolute a personal God you can love and worship, or a formless reality beyond all attributes? Hindu thought answers with a distinction: saguṇa Brahman 'with qualities' is the Lord of devotion; nirguṇa Brahman 'without qualities' is the attributeless ground. Which one is ultimate — and whether they are even two things — is one of the deepest fault lines among the schools.
