🌹 Siva Sutras - Part 1 - Sambhavopaya - 10th Sutra : Aviveko Maya Susuptam - Deep Sleep is Maya, The State of Ignorance. 🌹


Prasad Bharadwaj



The 10th Sutra of the Siva Sutras—Aviveko Maya Susuptam—explains that ignorance, or lack of discernment (aviveka), is like a deep sleep (susupti), controlled by the illusion of Maya. Just as deep sleep obscures awareness, ignorance veils our true nature as Shiva, keeping us trapped in illusion. However, through spiritual practice and self-realization, one can transcend these states, moving beyond ordinary consciousness to experience higher realities and ultimately merge with the infinite consciousness of Shiva. This sutra thus serves as a profound reminder of the spiritual potential within every individual, urging us to rise above the illusions of the material world and attain liberation.
