This suggests 2 , no? The super-imposition and brahman. Is this possible ?
This conversation so far has brahmā, brahma, brahman, nirguṇa¹ brahman, etc. ( so, saguṇa¹ cannot be far behind).
It seems to me that the new reader of all this would walk away confused.
iti śivaṁ
words
- nirguṇa - without qualities; if I wrote nirguṇā it would be defined as 'having no cord or string ' - I hope one sees the association between the two.
- saguṇa - with qualities; and if I wrote saguṇā it then would mean ' with cord or string'
- brahman is defined as 'growth' , 'expansion' ; rooted in the 2nd derivative bṛh & bṛṁh to expand, to increase.
