[Advaita-l] Ishwara has no real authorship, kartrutvam, in the creation of the world - Srimad Bhagavatam

[V Subrahmanian]

When Paramashiva gave Darshan to Markandeya, he did a stuti:

*सृष्ट्वेदं मनसा विश्वं आत्मनानुप्रविश्य यः ।*
*गुणैः कुर्वद्‌भिराभाति कर्तेव स्वप्नदृग् यथा ॥ ३१ ॥*

Brahman created this world mentally and entered it. In a dream one feels as
if he has done some or the other action but in reality he has no doership,
kartrutva. *He is just a witness to the dream, while only the three gunas
do all the creation. This is how it is in the present context of Ishwara
creating. Paramatma only appears as the creator of the world. Indeed,
Ishwara does nothing.*
Brahman nirguna, nishkriya, passive. Brahman is the cause of the world only
by Maya association. This causality is not true.
Lord Krishna says in the Bhagavad Gita:
*मयाध्यक्षेण प्रकृतिः सूयते सचराचरम् ।*
हेतुनानेन कौन्तेय जगद्विपरिवर्तते ॥10॥ 9.10
While I am a mere witness, nature, Prakruti, creates this world of all
beings moving and unmoving.
