Namaste,
Actually it is dvaitAdvaita.
It is a commentary on Nimbarkas
dashashloki
by a goswami of that school.
A: Thanks for clarifying. In any case,
it is the understanding of the purvapakshis, not to be found
anywhere in the original bhashyas.
Even if that's true (it's not) this
is
not evidence. The author is
describing
the advaitic view not his own. And
historically the North
Indian Vaishnava movements all came
way
after Advaitic doctrines were
already
settled.
A: One small instance is that some
Advaitins have written commentary on a post 10th century
Vaishnava work - Srimad Bhagvatam. Another instance is that
Advaitins like SSS have started a debate over the
settledness of Advaitic doctrine. As far as settledness is
concerned, it is only between the teachers and their
respective students. There is ample evidence that many
Advaitic teachers improvised on Shankaras works and
sometimes even flatly disagreed. When this is seen as a
virtue, there is bound to be divergence from the original.
No. Read the
very next line after the one you
quoted.
A: The keyword in the next line is
'nityasattvastho'. Does this mean sattva guna or to always
remain in Sat? Especially because he says nirdvandvo before.
Now I am not very good at Sanskrit, actually a noob:-P but
how can nityasattvastho be broken to mean sattva?
