[Advaita-l] The nature of spiritual realisation

[Raghavendra N Kalyan]

>Before I type Shankara's commentary, any ideas as to how the >opponent's theory can be refuted?

 
For a moment, let it be accepted that consciousness is an attribute of the body. 
 
Is consciousness an essential attribute or an accidental attribute of the body? If it is essential, then even a dead body (with all organs preserved)must be conscious. If it is accidental, then there is no reason why bodies alone must be conscious.
