[Advaita-l] shUnyakA

advaita-l

 

 

 

Some thoughts that crossed my mind, wanted

to share just in case there is some truth

in it .....

 

|| om ||

 

I have been seeing recent and past postings

in this list where divine vidyA-s from

various upanishads are skillfully reduced

to nothingness -- very element related to

practical utility of the vidyA is thrown

out, apparently in the name of paramArtha.

That set me thinking, is this not reducing

every vidyA to shUnya actually an activity

of bhanDAsura whose capital is called

shUnyakA. bhanDa - joke, jest

In the name of negating vyAvahAra, apparently

to prove mithyA, are we making a BIG JOKE

of all the vidyA-s expounded in the upanishads.

Are we sure, we are not becoming representatives

of bhanDAsura.

 

If this is indeed what bhanDAsura's activities

were - reducing vidyA-s skillfully to shUnya,

I can see why the rise of shrI vidyA was needed

to counter bhanDAsura, his army and his

capital city shUnyakA.
