Abstract

This study will include maya concept that has different meanings such as magic, sorcery, creative power, delusion, illusion in Vedanta, one of the Indian Orthodox Disciplines. In addition to Maya, the concept of avidya, which is sometimes used instead of it, which prevents the individual from realizing the truth and which is defined as ignorance, will be also analyzed. The role of Maya and avidya in the liberation and freedom of the individual, the meanings expressed by Maya in Indian scriptures, the place and importance of the Maya concept in Vedanta Discipline are the main subjects of the study. The aim of this study is to briefly examine the domain of Maya, which is one of the most -serving individual boundedness-, and to question its place in the Indian belief. The widely-accepted features of these two concepts are that they both carry negative characteristics and prevent the individual to reach freedom and salvation.

Özet

Bu çalışmada Hint Ortodoks öğretilerinden biri olan Vedanta’daki sihir, büyü, yaratma gücü, aldanma, illüzyon, yanılsama gibi farklı anlamlara gelen maya kavramına ve zaman zaman onun yerine kullanılan ve bireyin gerçeği görmesini engelleyici bir unsur, cehalet olarak tanımlanan avidya kavramının tahlillerine yerverilecektir. Maya ve avidyanın bireyin kurtuluş ve özgürlüğündeki rolü, Hintkutsal metinlerinde mayanın ifade ettiği anlamlar, Vedanta Öğretisinde mayakavramının yeri ve önemi çalışmanın temel konularıdır. Çalışmanın amacı insanın sınırlı oluşuna en çok hizmet eden kavramlardan biri olan mayanın etki alanını özet olarak incelemek ve Hint inancındaki yerini sorgulamaktır. Her iki kavramın da genel kabul gören ortak özellikleri hem olumsuz özellikler taşımalarıhem de bireyin özgürlüğe ulaşması ve kurtuluşa erişmesinde ona engel teşkil etmeleridir.
