Existence, consciousness, and bliss is the rope. Name and form is the snake.
Sat, cit, and ananda are not three layers of brahman. Satcitananda is a single substrate, brahman. And namarupa is a superimposition of maya on this substrate.
This analogy of rope and snake is a temporary article of faith and not dogma. This advaitic myth is not to be believed, but confirmed.
Without confirmation, it's neither truth nor untruth. And believing myth with blind faith doesn't make it true, but untrue. Yet as long as the myth hasn't been unproven, keep the faith.
