he himself had no faith in idolatry, polytheism and mythological avatar (incarnate) cult. he adhered to the upanishadic view that god is invisible, one-and-only-one, ubiquitous and attribute less. god as the supreme being is everywhere in the universe and the visible universe is an integral part of the invisible god. as the light illuminates everything, itself remaining invisible, god assigns attribute to everything himself remaining attribute-free. he had deep reverence for buddha and jesus. he used to explain that the vedic philosophy was free from avatar cult, polytheism, idolatry and the theory of rebirth. all these were introduced in hindu culture by the mythological texts called puranas which borrowed from the aboriginal religions, atharva veda and buddhism.
