[Advaita-l] [advaitin] AvidyA is mithyA

[kuntimaddi sadananda]

Subbuji - praNAms

Just out of curiosity, Brahman being infinite, that cannot have any parts, and is free from sajaati, vijaati swagata bhedaas. There cannot be anything other than Brahman. Hence if there is anything other than Brahman that can only be mithyaa. avidya and tat virodha jnaanam both cannot but be mithyaa - i.e. sat asat vilakshaNam. I cannot see any other possibility? 

Hari Om!

avidyA (in the case of the Self).
