Sri Ramana Maharshi
Elimination of drishya means elimination of separate identities of the subject and object. The object is unreal. All drishya (including ego) is the object. Eliminating the unreal, the Reality survives. When a rope is mistaken for a snake, it is enough to remove the erroneous perception of the snake for the truth to be revealed. Without such elimination the truth will not dawn.
(When and how is the disappearance of the objective world (drishya vilaya) effected?)
It is complete when the relative subject, namely the mind, is eliminated. The mind is the creator of the subject and the object and is the cause of the dualistic idea. Therefore, it is the cause of the wrong notion of limited self and the misery consequent on such erroneous idea.
