[Advaita-l] [advaitin] Is pot-abhAva bhAvarUpa

[Venkatraghavan S]

Namaste Sudhanshu Ji,

I don't subscribe to the view of abhAva being any thing, so I don't accept
that it is a thing different to the adhikaraNa. To hold it as different to
the adhikaraNa is simply a case of tuShyatu durjana, when dealing with
naiyyAyikas.

Kind regards,
Venkatraghavan
