Does brahma jnana transform itself to good Karma?





Does brahma jnana transform itself to good Karma?

It is a contradiction for Shankara further says that if the bliss (I mean emancipation or Moksha which is the ultimate aim or is claimed to be so in our metaphysical discussions) is to be reached good Karmas also should be burnt out.

To be more incisive, Shankara does not provide for good or bad, ethics or lack of it., because the entire universe is myth for him and the action of the mythical creatures too then deserve not much of consideration..

Advaitam per se does not differentiate much between good and bad.

If you are talking about a good social order based on goody good things, advaitam of Shankara is not the platform. Your intentions are laudable but you cannot make Shankara as a party to it.

Forming your own opinions and quoting Shankara are two different things.

Shankara believed in the futility of Karma itself- and its unreal or mythical nature-I do not think Shankara built a life philosophy on myths.

No difficulty in agreeing that religions should work for the good of all. That can be a good view for me in the same way as you hold it.. However, why Shankara here?
