Pleroma

Pleroma (, literally "fullness") generally refers to the totality of divine powers. It is used in Christian theological contexts, as well as in Gnosticism. The term also appears in the Epistle to the Colossians, which is traditionally attributed to Paul the Apostle. The word is used 17 times in the New Testament.

Etymology
The word literally means "fullness", from the verb plēróō (πληρόω, "to fill"), from plḗrēs (πλήρης, "full").

New Testament
The word itself is a relative term, capable of many shades of meaning, according to the subject with which it is joined and the antithesis to which it is contrasted. It denotes the result of the action of the verb pleroun; but pleroun is either
 * to fill up an empty thing (e.g. ), or
 * to complete an incomplete thing (e.g. );

and the verbal substantive in -ma may express either

 * 1) the objective accusative after the verb, 'the thing filled or completed,' or
 * 2) the cognate accusative, 'the state of fulness or completion, the fulfilment, the full amount,' resulting from the action of the verb.

It may emphasize totality in contrast to its constituent parts; or fullness in contrast to emptiness (kenoma); or completeness in contrast to incompleteness or deficiency (hysterema, ; hettema ).

A further ambiguity arises when it is joined with a genitive, which may be either subjective or objective, the fulness which one thing gives to another, or that which it receives from another.

In its semi-technical application it is applied primarily to the perfection of God, the fulness of His Being, 'the aggregate of the Divine attributes, virtues, energies': this is used quite absolutely in (oti en auto eudokesen pan to pleroma katoikesai), but further defined
 * 1) as pan to pleroma tes theotetos, 'the whole completeness of the Divine nature,' in ,
 * 2) as pan to pleroma tou theou, 'the whole (moral) perfection which is characteristic of God,' in.

Secondarily, this same pleroma is transferred to Christ; it was embodied permanently in Him at the Incarnation ; it still dwells permanently in His glorified Body, en auto katoikei somatikos ; it is tou pleromatos tou christou, the complete, moral, and intellectual perfection to which Christians aspire and with which they are filled (, este en auto pepleromenoi. Cf.  oti ek tou pleromatos autou emeis pantes elabomen, where pleroma is the state of Him who is pleres charitos kai aletheias, , cf.  pleroumenon sophia). This indwelling emphasizes the completeness with which the Son represents the Father; it is the fulness of life which makes Him the representative, without other intermediary agencies, and ruler of the whole universe; and it is the fulness of moral and intellectual perfection which is communicable through Him to man; it is consistent with a gradual growth of human faculties, therefore with the phrase eauton ekenosen of , which is perhaps intended as a deliberate contrast to it. One further application of the phrase is made in, where it is used of the Church, to pleroma tou ta panta en pasin pleroumenou. Here the genitive is perhaps subjective—the fulness of Christ, His full embodiment, that fulness which He supplies to the Church—emphasizing the thoroughness with which the Church is the receptacle of His powers and represents Him on earth. The analogy of the other uses of the word with the genitive of the person, and the stress throughout these books on Christians being filled by Christ , favours this view. But the genitive may be objective, 'the complement of Christ,' that which completes Him, which fills up by its activities the work which His withdrawal to heaven would have left undone, as the body completes the head. The analogy of the body, the stress laid on the action of the Church, the language about Paul himself in (antanaplero ta hysteremata ton thlipseon tou christou), support this, and it is impossible to decide between the two. The former view has been most common since the thorough examination of the word by Fritzsche and Lightfoot (Col.), and was taken by von Soden (Hand-Comm.). But the latter view, which was that of Origen and Chrysostom, has been strongly advocated by Pfleiderer, and T. K. Abbott (International Critical Comm.).

Outside the NT the word occurs in Ignatius in a sense which is clearly influenced by the NT, and apparently in the meaning of the Divine fulness, as going forth and blessing and residing in the Church (Eph. Inscr. te eulogemen en megethei theou patros pleromati, and Trall. Inscr. en kai aspazomai en to pleromati, almost = en Christo).

Gnosticism
In Gnosticism the use becomes yet more stereotyped and technical, though its applications are still very variable. The Gnostic writers appeal to the use in the NT (evidenced in Irenaeus' account of their views and his corresponding refutation, Iren I. iii. 4), and the word retains from it the sense of totality in contrast to the constituent parts; but the chief associations of pleroma in their systems are with Greek philosophy, and the main thought is that of a state of completeness in contrast to deficiency (hysterema, Iren. I. xvi. 3; Hippol. vi. 31), or of the fullness of real existence in contrast to the empty void and unreality of mere phenomena (kenoma, Iren. I. iv. 1). Thus in Cerinthus it expressed the fulness of the Divine Life out of which the Divine Christ descended upon the man Jesus at his baptism, and into which He returned (Iren. I. xxvi. 1, III. xi. 1, xvi. 1). In the Valentinian system it stands in antithesis to the essential incomprehensible Godhead, as 'the circle of the Divine attributes,' the various means by which God reveals Himself: it is the totality of the thirty aeons or emanations which proceed from God, but are separated alike from Him and from the material universe. It is at times almost localized, so that a thing is spoken of as 'within,' 'without,' 'above,' 'below' the Pleroma: more often it is the spirit-world, the archetypal ideal existing in the invisible heavens in contrast to the imperfect phenomenal manifestations of that ideal in the universe. Thus 'the whole Pleroma of the aeons' contributes each its own excellence to the historic Jesus, and He appears on earth 'as the perfect beauty and star of the Pleroma' (teleiotaton kallos kai astron tou pleromatos, Iren. I. xi. 6). Similarly it was used by writers as equivalent to the full completeness of perfect knowledge (Pistis Sophia, p. 15).

"[Some] confess that the Father of all contains all things, and that there is nothing whatever outside of the Pleroma (for it is an absolute necessity that, [if there be anything outside of it,] it should be bounded and circumscribed by something greater than itself), and that they speak of what is without and what within in reference to knowledge and ignorance, and not with respect to local distance; but that, in the Pleroma, or in those things which are contained by the Father, the whole creation which we know to have been formed, having been made by the Demiurge, or by the angels, is contained by the unspeakable greatness, as the centre is in a circle, or as a spot is in a garment . . .."

Again, each separate aeon is called a pleroma in contrast to its earthly imperfect counterpart, so that in this sense the plural can be used, pleromata (Iren. I. xiv. 2); and even each individual has his or her Pleroma or spiritual counterpart (to pleroma autes of the Samaritan woman,—Heracleon, ap. Origen, xiii. p. 205).

It thus expressed the various thoughts which we should express by the Godhead, the ideal, heaven; and it is probably owing to this ambiguity, as well as to its heretical associations, that the word dropped out of Christian theology. It is still used in its ordinary untechnical meaning, e.g. Theophylact speaks of the Trinity as pleroma tou theou; but no use so technical as that in Ignatius reappears.

Neoplatonism
In a neoplatonic manifestation of the concept, John M. Dillon, in Pleroma and Noetic Cosmos: A Comparative Study, states that Gnosticism imported its concept of the ideal realm, or pleroma, from Plato's concept of the cosmos and Demiurge in Timaeus and of Philo's Noetic cosmos in contrast to the aesthetic cosmos. Dillon does this by contrasting the Noetic cosmos to passages from the Nag Hammadi, where the aeons are expressed as the thoughts of God. Dillon expresses the concept that pleroma is a Gnostic adaptation of Hellenic ideas, since before Philo there is no Jewish tradition that accepts that the material world or cosmos was based on an ideal world that exists as well.

Carl Jung
Carl Jung used the word in his mystical work, Seven Sermons to the Dead, first published anonymously in 1916, and the only part of Liber Novus (The Red Book) to be published before his death. According to Jung, the pleroma is the totality of all opposites.

Gregory Bateson
In his Steps to an Ecology of Mind, Gregory Bateson adopts and extends Jung's distinction between pleroma (the non-living world that is undifferentiated by subjectivity) and creatura (the living world, subject to perceptual difference, distinction, and information). What Bateson calls the "myth of power" is the epistemologically false application to Creatura of an element of Pleroma (non-living, undifferentiated).

Missile and River?
What was the use of the river in the Brahmos missile? Why is this included as other uses of the river? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.132.225.63 (talk) 12:16, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

I agree. Best to be deleted.Themechacat (talk) 03:55, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

masculine? only such? really?
"It is the only Indian river that is attributed the masculine gender and thus referred to as a नद 'nada in Indo-Aryan languages and languages with Indo-Aryan influence. All other Indian rivers are referred to as नदी 'nadī."

what about river krishna? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.163.19.144 (talk) 13:01, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Krishna is a masculine name, thus, it does mean the sentence earlier is redundant. Themechacat (talk) 03:58, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Krishna River - Clarification
The name is Krishnā and not Krishna. It is feminine. This can be seen in Indian language names in Krishna River. Same article indicates that this river is called Krishnaveni in its original nomenclature. This is again a feminine name. Above two references indicate Krishna River to be considered as feminine and not masculine. So we can still say that Brahmaputra River is the only Indian River that is attributed the masculine gender. If there are any other exceptions, we can discuss about it here.

Assamese spelling
My browser shows the Assamese spelling of Brôhmôputrô as different from the Bengali spelling. On my browser, the Assamese spelling has "hôshonto"s/"virama"s (I don't know what the Assamese term for this is) on the "rô"s and not on the "bô" or "tô". Is this a mistake in the spelling, a problem with my browser, or the normal way to write it in Assamese? Thanks. --SameerKhan 00:46, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

 * This could be because your unicode font does not support the Assamese letters. If you are not using the ekushey fonts, please give them a try.  They support the Assamese letters. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaipau (talk • contribs)

 * I can see the text just fine, perhaps because I'm using fonts from Ekushey? --Ragib 02:20, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Ah, interesting! Yah on Netscape, the Assamese and Bengali spellings are identical, but for whatever reason on Firefox, the Assamese looks wrong. I have the Ekushey fonts, so there must be some issue with my settings on Firefox. I'll check it out. Thanks! --SameerKhan 10:45, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Interesting. Now I can't see the Assamese script correctly. It appears as ব্ৰহ্মপুত্ৰ which is 'ba' 'ৰ' 'hasant' ha-ma (compound letter)-pa-ukar-ta-ৰ - hasant. Does that look clear to anyone (and is that correct)? --Ragib 02:33, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I think the Assamese and the Bengali should look identical, except the encoding should be different, with different 'ra'. Chaipau 02:39, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I don't know about Assamese, but in Bangla, bra = ব + র-ফলা (ba + ra-fola). That is, the ra+hasant becomes added below the ba. Is there something similar in Assamese? --Ragib 02:45, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I am still having the same problem as before. Firefox reads the Bengali version as ব্র হ্ম পু ত্র (bô-e-rôfola + hô-e-mô + pô-e-rhoshshukar + tô-e-rôfola). It reads the Assamese version as (I'm using the Bengali way of naming the letters here) ব ৰ্ হ্ম পু ত ৰ্ (bô + rô-e-hôshonto + hô-e-mô + pô-e-rhoshshukar + tô + rô-e-hôshonto), as if it would be pronounced Bôrmhôputôr. Netscape, however, shows both the Assamese and Bengali versions as identical, with rôfolas in the right places. --SameerKhan 05:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Title
Currently, Yarlung Tsangpo River redirects here, I could be wrong, but I thought that this entire river was called "Yarlung Tsangpo River". Is the Yarlung Tsangpo River merely a fork or section of the Brahmaputra? John Reaves (talk) 10:59, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * As far as I know, it is the Tibetan name of the whole river. Although the English name for the whole river is Brahmaputra, I've often seen the local terminology used in English when referring to the part of the river that goes through an area where the local language uses a different word than Brahmaputra. --SameerKhan 04:04, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * What does most contemporary maps use for the river? I think the name debate is better resolved in that way, as most countries would use different local names for the river, and thus differ in nomenclature. --Ragib 05:16, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * The Brahmaputra is the river in the valley, whereas Tsangpo is its longest tributary that follows in Tibet. The Brahmaputra-Tsangpo connection was made in relatively recent times.  As mentioned in the article itself, the Brahmaputra section was known as Lauhitya and locally as Luit for a long time, and there is yet another tributary called Lohit.  Rightfully, this article should probably be called "Tsangpo-Brahmaputra River".  I have seen this usage in National Geographic oftentimes. Chaipau 12:56, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * this is similar to what occurs with the Yangtze. Although it begins in Tibet, and on English maps is generally marked as the "Yangtze" all the way to its ultimate source, in Chinese it is not actually named 长江 until some of the major tributaries converge at around Yibin, Sichuan. Thus Yarlung Zangbo respects the local name, even though it is merely the Tibetan part of the Brahmaputra. --HXL's Roundtable, and Record 07:29, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Length
The infobox says "Length 925 km (570 mi)", but both the article itself and the List of rivers by length say 3,848 km. I can't access the source for the 925 km number (it looks like a soft paywall or something). A google search finds many mentions of 3848, but the only ones I find for 925 seem to be derived from Wikipedia. Therefore I'll change the infobox to match the body of the article.

Although the source of the Tsangpo/Brahmaputra is near Lake Manasarovar, it is actually some tens of kilometers further east. The confusion arises because this area in western Tibet is the hydrographic nexus of the whole Himalayan Region, in which four major rivers rise. From west to east, the Indus flows east, to the far end of the entire Himalayan range, briefly entering India and then crossing Pakistan to the sea. Second, the Sutlej rises from Lake Rakshastal, which is next to Manasarovar and connected to it via an ephemeral channel. Sutlej flows west-northwest some 260 km, then turns and crosses the Himalaya, crossing India's Himachal Pradesh (state) and Punjab, then entering Pakistan before merging with the Indus. Third, the Karnali rises in Tibet southwest of Lakes Manasarovar and Rakshastal, soon enters Nepal and crosses the Himalaya, then enters India shortly after reaching the Terai plains and is renamed the Ghaghara, finally joining the Ganges. Fourth and last, the Yarlung Tsango rises east of the famous lakes, flowing southeast and east along a valley between the Himalaya and Trans-Himalaya in Tibet, to the far eastern end of the Himalaya, turns south to cut through in a deep canyon where it crosses into India and is renamed the Brahmaputra, continuing under other names through West Bengal and Bangladesh to the Bay of Bengal.

Holy Mount Kailash is associated with the sources of the four rivers, which are said to issue from its four sides, although this is not quite literally true. Even before the geography of its region was understood, Hindu cosmography imagined a Mount Meru as the center of Earth and the universe. As the geography of Tibet and the Subcontinent was explored this role was assigned to Kailash in Buddhist and Jain, as well as Hindu cosmography. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:6000:6081:2600:7C8A:1A08:6BB5:C8F7 (talk) 18:26, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

Full of BS
One Paragraph:

About 4,696 km (2,918 mi)[1] long, the Brahmaputra is an important river for irrigation and transportation in the region. The average depth of the river is 140 m (450 ft) and maximum depth is 370 m (1,200 ft). The river is prone to catastrophic flooding in the Spring when the Himalayan snow melts. The average discharge of the river is about 19,800 m3/s (700,000 cu ft/s),[4] and floods reach about 100,000 m3/s (3,500,000 cu ft/s).[6] It is a classic example of a braided river and is highly susceptible to channel migration and avulsion.[7] It is also one of the few rivers in the world that exhibits a tidal bore. It is navigable for most of its length.

Depth: "average 140 to 370 m" ???

Tidal Bore: "few rivers in the world" ???

Navigation: "navigable for most of its length" ???

Who makes this stuff up?
