What is Adhyasa (Superimposition)? Why does Shankaracharya call avidya anirvachaniya? 

Adhyasa, also known as superimposition or false attribution, is a significant concept in Advaita Vedanta, a non-dualistic school of Indian philosophy founded by Adi Shankaracharya. Adhyasa refers to the erroneous perception of one thing as another, resulting from ignorance or avidya.

In Advaita Vedanta, the ultimate reality is described as Brahman, an absolute, non-dual, and unchanging principle that transcends all distinctions. However, due to ignorance (avidya) or lack of true knowledge, individuals mistakenly superimpose the characteristics of the material world onto Brahman, leading to a distorted understanding of reality.
