[Advaita-l] 'world' is not the mental creation of tiny soul !!

[Venkatesh Murthy]

Namaste Sri Sadananda

I am confused by your reply. If you say dream world of tiny Jeeva is that
tiny Jeeva's Srishti but waking world is Ishwara's Srishti there is no
logic for supporting this. Many of our Acharyas like Gaudapada have treated
dream and waking as name.
