माया
Maya
The veiling and projecting power
Maya is the power by which the one appears as the many.
In Advaita, maya is the beginningless power that veils Brahman and projects the world of names and forms. It is neither real nor unreal in the ordinary sense; knowledge (jnana) dispels its binding effect.
