Text number 90.

I think we had done.

I remember doing text number 89 last time.

So what's happened till now?

What are the pieces in the game? We know. The basic

understanding is that there is one absolute reality, which is Brahman. But then the question remains

that what about all this? Where did all this come from? What is all this? So the Vedantasar starts

with that Vastu Satchidhanandam adduyam Brahmh.

Brahman is the only reality which is non-dual.
