Dear Bhagavatas:
The subject has been dealt with elaborately in the Chapter "Greatness of 
Ramanuja Darsanam" in my book "Hinduism Rediscovered". I believe a reading of 
this Chapter would clear such doubts.

==========================================================================
Please accept my humble pranams.

I would like to listen to your clarifications 
on the following and benefit from it. 

In Advaita, if I understand it correctly, they 
say that everything else is Maya and once we 
realise the truth the Maya dis-appears and we 
become one with the Supreme. This implies that 
if one were to learn the scriptures (which will be 
part of the Maya domain) and understand the Truth,
he/she would be doing so by reading something 
that is non existant and understand the Truth. 
The analogy given from Advaita standpoint to 
validate this is the Rope-snake analogy, where 
we can experience something real even from something
that is unreal.
In his refutation of this theory, is Sri Vedanta Desika
saying the experiencing of the fear of snake can happen 
only if one knows the attributes and characteristics of the
snake before hand, which is not the case wrt scriptures and 
the Truth ? 
Could somebody kindly tell if I have understood it 
correctly ? and if not please explain what is being said ? 
Thanks,
Humble pranams.
