________________ 120 An Account of the Eleatic Being, the Adwart school polished and refined the Bharaikant doctrine by introducing more spiritual notions into the former school. Not only all the phenomenal universe, but all the spiritual world also is one homogeneous spirit containing and and absorbing all the illusory manifestations in the universe. Adwaitism starts with this theory and thereon tries to explain- or explain all the external as well as internal Thus it is as unqualified and positive an Ekant Vad (monism) as any and naturally, it is open to all the general attacks on that Vad. No monism can consistently justify its right to leap upon the world of real facts from its original and legitimate position.. The failure of Plato's attempt to connect his Ideal with the real world is also a failure to which the Adwait school is obviously doomed. Visible differences cannot be accounted for by unaided Brahma. The intervention of maya may put its shoulder to Brahma's wheels; but Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only away world. - - www.jainelibrary.org
