‘Maya’ is one of the most prominent and important words in the vocabulary of Hindu philosophy. It is a very pivotal concept in Indian thought and has gathered recognition in the vocabulary of English language as well. Unfortunately, the word ‘maya’ is often mistranslated as ‘illusion’ by not only the western scholars but also the Indian gurus and pundits. Even when it is used by the western scholars without translation in their English writings, it generally denotes an illusion or a false idea. This mistranslation of maya as illusion has created a general misconception among people that Hindu philosophy is world-negating, pessimistic and unproductive. In this video Babaji and Rajiv throw light on how ‘maya’ is different from illusion and why it would be better if we stop translating maya as illusion.
