[Advaita-l] Do 'Tamasa' Puranas enjoin practice of Adharma?

[Kaushik Chevendra]

Namaste sir.
The Vaishnavas(madhwas) hold these puranas to be tamasic not because they
make one commit sins. Rather they spread wrong knowledge according to them.
Any scriptures talking about equating Vishnu with other deities is hari
dvesha and sends one to andhan tamas. Because these puranas hold Shiva,
Devi etc as superior or equal to vishnu they are proclaimed as tamasa
puranas.
