soul and God. There are two kinds of (Thaathaanmiyam) union inseparable for ever: 1. One object or substance will by its own features or characteristics differentiate itself into two and appear as two substances or objects just like music and sound. Though music is one, it may be differentiated into music when it appeals to the finer sense and sound when it is heard as gross noise. In this union sound is inseparable from music and so this union is known as Thaathaanmiyam but not Advaitham. 2. Two objects or substances will by their properties, qualities and similarities, while being distinct unite and will appear as one object or substance just like salt in water. This union is called Advaitham union of soul and God according to Caiva Siddhantha doctrine. More appropriate example is light of the eye and its perception by the soul. Besides, the soul is or has become gross wisdom and God is subtle wisdom. These two are in the Advaitha union. One cannot see them separately or individually as soul and God. So when one desires with an eye to see the soul there is no God; and with an eye to see God, there is no soul and with an eye to see the blissful union of both, the Bliss cannot be seen as his doubtful ego proceeds before his vision. 68
