DZ貹 is the erroneous superimposition () due to (nescience), because of which, one thing is perceived as another, and the characteristics of one are attributed to the other as in the case of mistaking a piece of rope for a snake. Similarly, the characteristics of the not-Self (ٳ) are superimposed on the self (Ātman), which is eternal, and of the nature of existence, consciousness and bliss, as a consequence of which, the infinite Self appears as the embodied soul (ī) subject to the limitations of the empirical world.

Brahman, which is non-dual, appears as th wrold of plurality of insentient and sentien beings because of DZ貹. It is due to DZ貹 that the Real appears as the unreal, and the unreal appears as the Real. By adopting the method of negation (貹岹), which involves discrimination, the attributes of the not-Self are eliminated to reveal the Self. Superimposition is only an appearance; therefore, the Self is unaffected by the attributes of the not-Self imposed on it.

General definition (in Hinduism)

[«𱹾dzܲ Ա»] � Adhyaropa in Hinduism glossary
: Hindupedia: The Hindu Encyclopedia

DZ貹 literally means ‘superimposition�. The attempts of reconciling Brahman-the Absolute with the world which is imperfect and limited have resulted in the ‘doctrine of adhyropa-貹岹.� The problem is sought to be resolved by considering the world as an adhyropa or , a superimposition (as a snake is superimposed on a rope resulting in illusory perception) and denying its absolute reality.

In Buddhism

Buddhist philosophy

: Google Books: The Treasury of Knowledge: Book six, parts one and two (philosophy)

DZ貹 (अध्यारोप) refers to �(imaginations of) exaggeration or reification� and represents one of the ten aspects of distracting false imagination (岹ś-ṣe貹-첹貹), according to Khewang Yeshe Gyatso, Exegetical Memorandum chapter 5 (Cf. Mahynasūtrlaṃkrakrik, chapter 11). These [e.g., DZ貹] are related to the imaginary nature (parikalpita). These ten are enumerated as aspects of false imagination which may be imputed in all sorts of contexts, and it is on this basis that the process of reification actually comes to partake of the imaginary nature.
