[Advaita-l] [advaitin] Upanishads deny any absolute form for Brahman

[V Subrahmanian]

Dear Sada ji,

Pranams.  What I meant by the word 'absolute' is an equivalent of the
Sanskrit compound word used for this: niyata-rūpam (not nitya rupam). That
means: a form that is native to Brahman, that does not change.

subbu
