[Advaita-l] SAmAnya in world-Brahman adhyAsa

[Sudhanshu Shekhar]

Namaste Bhaskar ji.

//But I know you hold that the mAya is the atyanta abhAva likes hare's horn
or vaNdyA putra so it is very difficult for you to reconcile the relation
between brahman and world in this way.//

MAyA and hare's horn both have traikAlika-nishedha-pratiyogitA in common.
But they are different on the aspect of sattvena-pratIyamAnatva. Means,
mAyA can have sat-tAdAtmya but hare's horn cannot. So, both are not equated
please note.

What is is-ness? Is it shuddha chaitanya or vishaya-avachchhinna-chaitanya?

Regards.
