[Advaita-l] "One subjectivity" and "No creation" reference to Advaita

[Kaushik Chevendra]

Namaste sir.
You have given quite an excellent response. From your post it seems to be
that the dualists contention is true. Probably the scholars will have to
shed light on this.
In my opinion the difference between the shunya and brahman is existence.
In the sense that shunya is absence of anything. Whereas in av there is
absence of anything other than brahman.
