[Advaita-l] mithyA and abhAva chatuShTaya

[Durga Janaswamy]

Hari Om,
Pranams

Your observation looks like a case of 2-satta vada.    Is your observation same even in case of 3-satta vada?

Rope-snake illustration -- is it an example of 2-satta vada   or   3-satta vada?

Thank you and regards
-- durga prasad
