One of the popular metaphors employed in the pedagogical and didactic exposition of Advaita Vedanta is that of the rope and the snake. When asked: How can this world, characterized by diversity, be accounted for if the ultimate reality as Brahman is claimed to be one and unique?, the answer given is: just as a rope can be mistaken for a snake, Brahman is mistaken for the universe.
