What reading level is The Doctrine of Māyā in the Philosophy of the Vendānta book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
ii. 4. 5).
i.e..
The Atman is to be seen, heard, understood, meditated — O Maitreyi ; by seeing, hearing, understanding and realiz- ing the Atman, all this world is known.
This is repeated again in iv. 5. 6.
The same idea is expressed by means of three similes, viz., of the drum (dundubhih), the conch- shell, and the lyre. As by holding fast the drum, the conch-shell, the lyre, when they are being beaten, all their sounds are as it were caught together, so by knowing the Atman all is known, i.e...., all worth knowing becomes already known. When these instruments are being sounded one cannot hear any- thing else and is confused in the multiphcity of the sounds, but on taking possession of the instruments — the source of all the sounds — one seems to have mastered the discord and to have found the key to it all. So is the Atman the key to the all, viz., to the universe ; when the Atman is known then there is nothing else that is worth knowing ; the multiplicity perishes and the unity asserts its sway.
