The Sage (a Correction)

[Guest guest]

It has occurred to me that in my post named "The Sage" I made the

following misleading statement: ". . . there are no lasting

separations between Brahman's formations and Brahman." The word

"lasting" was a poor choice. I would have better expressed what I

meant if I had said "There are no (ontologically) real separations

between Brahman's formations and Brahman."

 

Any apparent separations between Brahman and anything are not real.

As one who ascribes to a "realistic" strand of Advaita Vedanta I

view the transient formations (all of Jagat) as phenomenally "real"

but affirm that any apparent "separations" between the formations

and Brahman are not ontologically real.

 

I hope this clarifies what I meant, in spite of what I said.

 

Namaste,
