[Advaita-l] BhAvarUpatva of vishesha-abhAva

[Sudhanshu Shekhar]

Thank you Chandramouli ji.

My analysis was this. Pot-abhAva is known through anupalabdhi pramANa. It
is a prameya. It is known through paroksha-antahkaraNa-vritti. A prameya
cannot be asat, horns of hare. It cannot be Brahman either.

So only thing we are left with is mithyA. Everything mithyA is triguNAtmaka.

Thus, pot-abhAva has to be triguNAtmaka.

However, I do not have any text citation for that. Page 186/187 are also
not saying it in so many words.

Thanks.
