[Advaita-l] The Tinged Brahman of Deep Sleep, etc.

[sreenivasa murthy]

Pranams to all the participants in this thread.
      I have a couple of doubts : 
      how will tinged Brahma will become untinged?      Sruti says  ayam AtmA brahma || So Atma is also tinged in all the states. 
      How to make Atma untinged ?      Is he available for untinging operation?      Has any one done it?  Please instruct me where one has done it so that  I can realize Atma which is not tinged.

With respectful namaskarams,Sreenivasa Murthy

Namaste Sri Subbuji,

Great, I remember the discussion in relation to आगन्तुकत्वं of अविद्या.

>From Anandagiri AchArya's clarification, it appears that on similar lines,
the अभाव of अविद्या in सुषुप्ति here refers to its अनभिव्यक्तं. Presumably
here by अविद्या, अध्यास is being referred to.

Regards,
Venkatraghavan
