[Advaita-l] [advaitin] Dichotomy in creation - Advaita beautifully explained - Dream analogy - Hindi

[Sudhanshu Shekhar]

Namaste.

Sankshepa ShArIraka very emphatically says the following:

तव गाढमूढतमसा रचितं जगदीशजीववपुषा सकलम्।
प्रतिभाति तावददृढं दृढवत् समुदेति यावदवबोधरविः॥२२२॥

This prapancha in the form of world, Ishwara and jIva is constructed by
your dense, dark, deluding ignorance. While it is extremely fragile, it
appears as solid and firm only so long as the sun of jnAna does not appear.


तव चित्तमात्मतमसा जनितं परिकल्प्यत्यखिलमेव जगत्। तव कल्पनाविरचितः स
गुरुस्तव रूपमद्वयमुदाहरति॥२२५॥

Your mind is born from ignorance of Atma. And your mind imagines this
entire world. Guru, who is also constructed by your imagination, will
explain/teach/make you see your own non-dual nature.
