Hari Om,
When we say "pot is", it is accepted that is-ness seen in pot is not a
feature of pot, but of Brahman.
If we close our eyes, we cannot say - pot is - even if pot is before us.
This shows clearly that is-ness is an object of chAkshusha-pratyaksha.
However, this implies that Brahman is an object of chAkshusha-pratyaksha.
But then it militates against Brahman being aprameya and being beyond
chakshu etc.
What exactly is the siddhAnta here. Is shuddha-Brahman accepted to be an
object of chAkshusha-pratyaksha or is it pot-avachchhinna-chaitanya which
is the object of chAkshusha-pratyaksha?
Regards.
Sudhanshu Shekhar.
