पराविरोधः

अविरोधः

स्व-सिद्धान्त-व्यवस्थासु
द्वैतिनो निश्चिता दृढम् ।
परस्-परं विरुध्यन्ते
तैर् अयं न विरुध्यते ॥ १७॥
Gaudapada Karika

• Deists or Theists (for example, trika shaivas like abhinava-gupta, or for that matter Platonists) are not necessarily dvaitin-s in the sense of being opposed to “जीव-ब्रह्मैक्य”; even while they admit theophany, samAvesha etc..
• Just as advaitins can accommodate - or humor - deists / theists within their AhArya-sattA framework; so can the deists/ theists accommodate advaita analysis as a valid/ quasi-successful way of dealing with a strict subset of the phenomena they consider valid. So, no virodha in that sense.
