I always thought that the name 'Maya' refered to two things: The Sanskrit word meaning 'illusion' and the concept of illusion in Hindu and Dharmic philosophy. Its a fitting name in my opinion.


Anyways, this reminded me of something. How do you pronounce 'Maya'? Me and and friends always say it like this: 'May-a', but the people in tutorial DVDs and a couple of other people I know say it differently: 'My-a'

Which one is the right way?
