[Advaita-l] [advaitin] 'Iśwara is Māyāvin'

[H S Chandramouli]

Sri Sadananda Ji,



Pranams.



Reg  << Based on the authority of Shruti it is clearly established that
both jeeva and Iswara are products of maayaa >>,



माया  is  जडम् (inert). It cannot produce anything by itself. So who is the
Producer of Iswara??  Can you please cite some of the Shruti Vakyams on
which your conclusion is based.



As per my understanding, with the manifestation of  माया Chaitanyam itself
with माया as its उपाधि is considered as Iswara . There is no “product” of
माया called Iswara.


Regards
