A correction

[Dr. S.R.Marur]

In the posting 'Sankara SampradhAyam - 6', the line posted as,

"The vEdAs and smrithis have classified the vEdic karmas based on the
 maturity of varieties of jivAs and also for the welfare of the world
 and prescribed them as varna-dharma and Ashrama-dharma"

should have been

"The vEdAs and smrithis have classified karmAs based on the
 maturity of varieties of jivAs and also for the welfare of the world
 and prescribed them as varna-dharma and Ashrama-dharma".

The error is regretted.

Regards,

Sudhakar

Interesting.  So is it fair to say in the Dvaita school Maya is just
Bhagawans power of moha?  Advaitins also have the concept of leela but it
is an "automatic" kind of thing not something controlled by the will of
Bhagawan.
