[Advaita-l] [advaitin] A talk in Sanskrit on 'Darkness is material' (bhAvarUpa)

[Michael Chandra Cohen]

Namaste Sudhanshuji, pranam
How the text distinguishes between vishaya and vishayi is not as two
substances but as real and unreal (*satya anṛte mithunīkṛtya*) which are
opposed to each other epistemologically not ontologically. Who commonly
takes darkness to be a thing?
