SUMMARY: Blankness is a controversial subject and hence it can neither be an object; since it is ‘untruth’ (asat), an object must invariably be ‘sat’ or ‘true’ (existing), like pearl-oysters, we say as mentioned in the Vaidharmya hypothesis.

In this stanza, the interpretation that the universe is nothing but blankness or zero (shoonya) it cannot be an object for global illusion. To be an object (AdhiShThAna) it should be necessarily true. Since that school of philosophy that treats the universe as ‘blank’, establishes that it is non-existing or untrue, it is impossible to confer on it the status of being an object.

SUMMARY: The very conception that anything that the Principle (Vedas) cannot teach is the evidence is untenable. Hence, what the proponents of mysticism or Mayavada call as Principle or Veda or Tattwa concede that there is no proof or evidence for those Principles or Vedas.

 Primarily, there are two classes of proponents: One class contend that the universe is blank. They do not accept or subscribe the idea of existence of Almighty; The second class claim that everything is mysticism. This mystic power is creating, preserving and destroying the universe. But, it is just a mystic power and nothing less nothing more. While those contending that the universe is blank or opaque or a thing that is unseen and whose shape or form is beyond apprehension. Both the schools of philosophy coincide on one line of thought that God is an illusion. However, those consigning the creator to blankness do not accept Vedas as principal principles of human life, whereas the mystics do accept Vedas as a proof but they do not agree that Vedas are the Principles. Both the schools are rejected as fallacious, untenable, and illogical.
