Namaste,B-ji,IMHO,

 

Nir Guna means what it says 'no gunas' or modifications, indescribable

to the mind. There are other ways of saying the same thing.

 

Jnanam, anantam and satyam are describing states or conditions or

qualities in the positive, therefore could be said to be attributes.

Any description or modification is an attribute.

 

That is how I understand it. In a way even Nirguna is giving a name

but it is in the negative. For any level of mind cannot ever

understand Nirguna Brahman...........ONS..Tony.
