Hari om,

Kindly share your views on difference between AkAsha and AvakAsha.

Taittiriya 2.1.1 लक्षणं तु सर्वत एव, यथा अवकाशप्रदात्राकाशमिति

Taittiriya 2.1.1 आकाशो नाम शब्दगुणः अवकाशकरो मूर्तद्रव्याणाम्

These verses show AkAsha as avakAsha-pradAtrA or avakAsha-kara. Certainly A
cannot be A-pradAtra. A has to be ~A-pradAtrA otherwise the usage will be
meaningless as agni is vahni-pradAtrA.

Accordingly, please share your valuable views. V Subramanian ji, Praveen
ji, Venkataraghavan ji. For you three, response is mandatory. ☺

Regards.
Sudhanshu.
