Atmabodha,-The Nature of the WORLD, (S.-1, Ch.-3, V.-7)

तावत्सत्यं जगद्भाति शुक्तिकारजतं यथा । यावन्न ज्ञायते ब्रह्म सर्वाधिष्ठानमद्वयम् ॥ ७॥

Taavat satyam Jagadbhati Suktikaa Rajatam Yatha Yavanna Jnayate Brahma Sarvadhistaanam-Advayam.

1 Taavat satyam jagat bhaati As long as the world appears to be real, 2 shuktikaa rajatam yathaa; like the mother-of-pearl appears as silver; 3 yaavat na jnaayate brahma so long Brahman (the Truth) cannot be realized, which is the substratum of all and one without a 4 sarva adhishthaanam advayam. second.

When we look into an oyster shell, it appears like silver. But it is only a silvery shining. Similarly till we know the indivisible and Supreme Self which is called Brahma, all this creation appears to be real and permanent. Actually every thing we see, hear and feel is creation of Brahma. Whereas Brahma is indivisible, unique and permanent, his creation appears to be different beings which is nothing but illusion. Because of the effect of this Maya or ignorance, this world reflects itself as different beings and things. Once we know Brahma the ignorance is dispelled. The world that appeared to be real ceases to delude us.
