Creating Spacetime

1.

Saguna Brahman creates spacetime with its power of Maya.

This foremost God is called Isvara in Vedanta. Praise be!

Like reflections of clouds in a lake, like dreams in a sleeping mind—

spacetime appears in the timeless and spaceless Nirguna Brahman.

2.

Space isn't nothing. Space is the manifestation of consciousness.

Time is measured in seconds like a third dimension of duality.

A square circle is unreal. Only consciousness-existence is real.

Thinking and living is neither real nor unreal but mithya.




Mithyā: not real; neither real nor unreal; illusory. According to Advaita, it has a special status as it is not the real (sat), for it is sublatable; and it is not the unreal (asat), because it is perceived (unlike a barren woman's son or a square circle).
