Guest guest Posted August 14, 2002 Report Share Posted August 14, 2002 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “Similarly, realising that there is no snake (different from the rope) and what is causing the fear is only a piece of rope (in the Snake - Rope illusion) is Apavada. These are illustrations (Drishtantas). In our context (Daarshtaantika), it was shown that the creation was imposed upon Brahman. An intelligent person will be able to realise that what is apparent in the form of the visible universe is not real and will therefore deny the existence of the world. Denial here means rejecting its truthfulness. Such denial of the apparent world is called as Apavada."
