Literally. Nothing exists. It proposes that the entire universe never existed, does not exist now, and never can be. I studied that philosophy quite intensely for a few years, but I no longer find it the least bit attractive. I do wish to point out that there is truly nothing Vedic about advaita, although they like to call their philosophy 'advaita vedanta,' (meaning that the conclusion of knowledge is nonduality). Advaita philosophy appears somewhat theistic, as it portrays God as the controller of the world, but also says both God and the world are entirely imaginary. The purport of the Vedas, however, is the glorification of the Personality of Godhead, whose reality is absolute. Melanie,
