Since ajnAna/avidyA/mAya is only kalpitam (imagined), avastu, not an entity
by itself ( distinct, separate or different from Atman/Brahman), what does
it substantiate/signify when termed as bhaava roopa or some other term ?

Its role is in explaining the sRsTi kArya kAraNa sambavam clearly or
something more ?

Thanks
