Who is Lady Gargi in ancient history?
As per the Vaidik scriptures, Gargi was the enlightened daughter of sage Vachaknu. She composed several vaidik hymns. She was widely respected for her elightenment, knowledge and grace. She was the only lady invitee in the Brahma-Yagna performed by Yogiraj Janak, the King of Videha (and father-in-law of Lord Rama). During that yagna, she had a debate with sage Yajnavalkya on several subjects including the soul or 'atman' and proved her supremacy by defeating the most eminent sage of that time. She established her own ashram and gurukul where she propagated vaidik learnings among students and scholars. Along with Ghosha, Lopamudra and Maitreyee, she is considered one of the 4 lady pillars of vaidik wisdom.
How is monism different from monotheism?
Monotheism is a metaphysical duality by definition - in that it isolates a single god and everything else in the universe: as disparate entities. Monoism (as indoctrinated by Sri AdiSankara's Advaita (and Spinoza's Monism too)) - believes in the oneness of all that there is in the universe. Advaitic Monism is summed up by four of these aphorisms: * ahambrahmasmi - "I am brahman" (where brahma == the eternal supreme consciousness of the universe * ayamAtmabrahma - "The Atman is brahman" (Where the Atma is the self) * prajnAM brahma - "Consciousness is the brahman" * tattvamasi - "That Thou Art" Shankara also quotes, famously in the vivEkacUdAmaNi - "Brahma satyaM jagat mithyA jIvO brahmaiva nAparaH" - literally, "Ultimately, there is no difference between the self and the eternal - They are one and the same". This Advaitic consciousness however manifests to the unenlightened in deceptive facets of duality - which are labelled as 'prAtibhAshika' and 'vyAvahArika' respectively. The 'pArAmartha' level of realization is the truest and ultimate.
