In Sphota philosophy, language itself is considered as the creator

and sustainer of the world cycles.

 

Bhartrhari considers language to be intimately connected with the

mind as one cannot think without a language.

 

Does this strain of thought reveal any connection with the

Vijnaanavaada Buddhist theory which considers the world as a creation

of the mind? If mind and language exist only in relation to each

other, then sphota theory regarding shabda Brahman as the creator of

the world, would only be a substitution of language in place of the

mind.

 

Is Bhartrhari influenced by Vijnaanavaada - atleast in this

particular aspect of "world creation"?
