 According to Advaita the world is mithya which means neither the world is
sat or asat. It is sat for one who has avidya and one who has achieved
mukti the world simply ceases to exist. This is why one can say that the
jagat is sadasad-vilakShaNa, what is meant is that the jagat is both
cognised in an adhiSThAna (and is thus not tuccha like a hare's horn), but
also that the jagat is subject to bAdha and thus cannot be truly satya.

However, one can argue using The Law of Excluded Middle refutes the entire
argument. Are there any proper rejoinders to such arguments? I think even
vyAsa-tIrtha advances this argument and so does madhva, in his
viSNu-tattava-nirNaya.

Any help will be appreciated.Thank you!

Warm Regards,
