Author Name: Prof. Dr. Jai Paul Dudeja | Format: Paperback | Genre : BODY, MIND & SPIRIT | Other Details

The Upanishads, the Brahma Sūtras and the Bhagavad Gita constitute the three component sources of Vedanta. Māyā, literally means "illusion". It is unstable, ever-changing, impermanent, unreliable and never the same. According to Advaita Vedanta, this world is Māyā. Mithyā means "false belief". One example of Mithyā is perceiving a rope as a snake in the in insufficient light or in dark. There is a famous Sanskrit verse: “Brahma Satyam, Jagat Mithyā”; that means: Brahman is the truth. The world is a false belief. These concepts of Māyā, Mithyā, and the Brahman, as viewed by the Vedanta, are explained in details, in this book consisting of twelve chapters. The book is strongly supported by over 150 verses in Sanskrit (shlokas) along with their Roman script, translation and explanation in English language. This book is dedicated to Maharshi Bādarāyaṇa, the Author of ‘Brahma Sutras, a component of Vedanta.
