of a certain blue fish, Blue fish is me and i am blue fish.
Something like Brahman and Maya.
Blue fish is the creative power, doesnt create illusions though.

Errr... Brahman and Maya are two diametrically opposite concepts.
ReplyDeleteBrahman is one who has realized the true nature of everything, i.e has conquered Maya. Maya is the illusion that prevents us from seeing the underlying truth.
So how can illusion, and one who has conquered illusion be the same?
That is what it is, according to shankaracharya, everything is Brahman, and MAya is the creative power of Brahman that makes illusions and stops us from realising that we are also merely Brahman. Everything is finally Brahman according to him.Maya is like the magician's skill and hence the world is just an illusion a product of maya whereas what actually exists is only Brahman.
ReplyDeleteBrahman is the almighty type character which cannot be explained within postive terms as in... Brahman is...
ReplyDeleteAccording to Shankaracharya, Brahman is all that can't be explained. So yes its beyond illusion because Brahman is the sole ultimate Reality
