Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “In our situation (Drishtaanta)'. To assume that I do not know 'Atma' is Ajnaana (ignorance). To take recourse to foolish arguments and thoughts and consequently say 'If Atma were to be there, why can't I see it? Therefore, there is not Atma' is Avaranadvaya. That the 'Jeeva' resides in the Sthoola (gross) and Sookshma (subtle) bodies, his doership and enjoyership are all Vikshepa. Jeeva who possesses Sthoola and Sookshma bodies is referred to as Chidabhaasa - as though it is present. The Samsaara, which is of the nature of an admixture of happiness and sorrow, is the play of Jeeva. This is called Vikshepa."
