If you agree avidya 'exists' in sushupti then we are in agreement as, whatever exists is bhAvarupa.


  *   But while asserting it is bhAvarUpa, you (mulAvidyAvAdins) tagged the term and trying to clarify it is not bhAvarUpa in strict sense whereas it is just bhAvAbhavavilakshaNa, just to prove that it is not abhAva we are saying it is bhAvarUpa… is it not??.  So categorically you cannot conclude that it is indeed bhAvarUpa because you are explaining the nature of this bhAvarUpa avidyA as : satasat vilakshaNa, anirvachaneeya, it is not bhinna or abhinna from brahman not even bhinnabhinna, it is not sAvayava nor it is niravayava nor it is ubhayAtmaka etc. etc. and finally you say it is sAkshi siddha !! 😊 So we know the struggle and stress mulAvidyAvAdins undergo to push their pet theory mUlAvidyA which is conspicuous by its absence in PTB.


So there is no need to castigate the acharyas in the parampara after Shankara.


  *   If some of the post shankara advaitins followed religiously their mulAchArya and his bhAshya without any inventions / fabrications there was absolutely no need for any castigation..is it not prabhuji??

I don't have any doubts in the knowledge which was handed down to me by my Guru.


  *   Same here prabhuji,

So, I have no motivation to read any works of SSSS other than to refute whatever is written there,


  *   This prejudiced mind set sometimes brings havoc in considering what is shuddhAdvaita as advocated by bhagavatpAda.  And to refute his works you don’t have to go by what his ‘followers’ say about it.  If you want to meaningfully and rationally refute his works better quote his original works and his followers that was what I was trying to convey.  Don’t you think it is a worthy request??


which will be vitanda and which I am not interested in.


  *   So without reading anything in original you have already concluded it is vitanda !!  very nice prabhuji 😊

If what is said by SSSS makes sense to you then it is fine with me. It does not make any sense to me though.


Ø     If one is without any proper verification concluding something wrongly, really does not make any sense to me either.


  *   Kindly pardon me if the intend of my observation is hurting.  But it is  quite unfortunate that even full time sAdhaka-s / vedAntins like you having this type of pUrvAgraha on some of the Acharya-s.


Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
bhaskar
