jIvan mukta's world view

[Vidyasankar]

>The jivanmukta can switch between snake and rope.  The difference between
>him and an ordinary person is that he is mukta ("free") to make that
>choice for himself.

Also that he knows that it is not really snake, but rope; even if the
physical eyes "see" otherwise. The inner vision negates the outer vision.

Hope this helps,

Vidyasankar

Dear Sri Venkatesh,
  Correction requested in the following statement, lest it will mislead.

> If Vyasa's father was the author of the original Visnu Purana,
> his son Sukracaraya it was who instructed King Pariksit in the
> Bhagavata.

  It should be Sukacharya and not Sukracharya.

  Thanks,
  chandrasekaran.
