Thanks. If we were to explain this independant of panchadashi or other recent works and rely solely on Shankaras works, i wonder how itd turn out. This is mainly because Vidyaranya does not even favour avaccheda vada (or so it seems) and uses his own reasoning.

Thanks
for the clarification. I request some pointers regarding :
(1) Mention of mathakasha or its equivalent and (2) Ishwaras
maya being shuddha sattva and jivas is malina sattva.
No.2 is clearly mentioned in the
Panchadashi and several other
commentaries.
Will be grateful for any help in this regard. And another
question is that even if the pot breaks, the mansion-space
remains as it is. How to resolve this?

In the
context of avaccheda vada, how is mathakasha any
different
from ghatakasha as both are upadhis? We can simply say
jiva
is ghatakasha and ishwara is brihadghatakasha. But that
would mean ishwara too has avidya.
No, this would not mean Ishwara has
avidya. All the avaccheda-s are due to Maya. This maya
is
further seen as shuddha sattva (Ishvara) and malina
sattva
(jiva).
Thanks for panchadashi reference but Vidyaranya is
using
another version of reflection theory and not
delimitation
theory.
Yes. I had realized that even when I
stated that reference.

Any reference from Shankara/Gaudapada or other 9th
century
Advaitins like Vachaspati? Thanks
