Now, by questions which come in from our internet audience all over the world and our

live audience present here, also can ask questions. So let's open with a question from the

internet audience and then we'll take other questions. So think about your with the question from the internet audience and then we'll take

other questions. So think about your questions and you have to come up here and tell us your

name and then ask the question. All right.

So the first question we have, Swamaghii, is from Dominic, who is writing from Denmark. Hi, Swami. I hope you can help me understand.

Maya is an illusion, something which seems to be like something, but isn't.

But in the same way, it must be real.

Vedanta says everything is Brahman, but that means that Maya, Shakti, Prakriti, is real too.

In Ajiva, it hides the truth about the self, but it's part of

God's game, and this game includes everything, also Maya. If Brahman is untouched by anything,

and in the same way the source of everything, then nothing would appear or create. It needs something that causes the creation.

If there is a separate thing like Maya, then we are in dualism.

If it comes from himself, then he becomes limited.

It seems like neither dualism nor non-dualism work. It's like both and none of these.

The mind can't fix it.

It's a good question.

Let me reduce the question to its essentials.

We say Brahman is the only reality.

Now we are, remember, we have made a paradigm shift from Kashmir Shavism which we were discussing earlier,

which the internet audience of course did not see, but to Adwaita Vedant. There's a shift.

Adwaita Vedanta says, Brahmas Satyam, Jagat Mithya.
