For the unreal (mithya), there is never any being. For the real, there is never any nonbeing.
The ultimate truth of both (the real and the unreal) is seen by the knowers of the truth. Bhagavad Gita II, 16

  • All your Explanation Are Amazing !! i

  • Mithtaatva/anirvacaniiyatva - is the notion that the world is neither real nor un-real.

    But mithyaatva is not the subject matter of verse 2.16. ( actually 2.12 through 2.28).

    mithyaatva is neither expressed nor implied in giitaa nor the veda-s.

  • Wonderful to hear such clearness...:)2u

  • Based on the context of Gita verses 2.12 though 2.28 : asata: - for the perishable (the body), bhaava: -  continual existence, na vidyate - is not known. sata: - for the unperishable (the aatmaa), abhaava: - non-existence, na vidyate - is not known. anayo: ubhayo: api - these two , dRshTa: anta: - were seen definitively, tattva-darSibhi: tu - by truth seers.
  • Really one of the fantastic explanation of the Bhagavad Gita's ultimate & infinite concept [ the utlimate brigth truth ]
