Shri shankara in adhyAsa bhAshya defines what is vidyA ...tadvivEkEna cha
vastusvarUpAvadhAraNaM vidyAM AhuH!! just as avidyA is of the nature of
avivEka, *vidyA* is of the nature of vivEka ( discrimination)...In the
shankara's prasThAna trayi bhAshya, the terminology vidyA has been called
by synonyms like Atma buddhi, brahmAtma buddhi, AtmajnAna, jnAna,
avdhAraNa, nishchayajnAna, avagati etc. etc..
