[Advaita-l] [advaitin] BrihadAraNyaka 4.3.19 and Aitareya 1.3.12

[V Subrahmanian]

The Ratnaprabha for BSB 2.1.14 at the end quotes a verse in this
connection: कृपणधीः परिणाममुदीक्षते क्षयितकल्मषधीस्तु विवर्तताम्  (source
not provided). [‘The unprepared aspirant understands only the ‘creation,
transformation’ scheme whereas the one who has purified his mind of all
dross is able to appreciate the ‘transfiguration’ vivarta of Atman/Brahman
as appearing as the world and jIva-s.’]

warm regards
