Sathyam and Mithya

Any and every attribute is nama rupa, what it IS is satyam. The nama rupas gain their glory from satyam. Like air, water , space are all glorious entities.They are positive entities, that exist. Air exists, water exists, when we say 'exists' we should recognise that the 'exists' is non dual. So when you say air you can visualise air, water you can visualise, space you can think of it itellectually in terms of its function, but when you say brahman you cant visualise or intellectualise, as brahman is free of attributes, hence brahman is not another object, but that brahman IS that which lends presence to every object.So when any object is visualised, brahman IS, buthis fact is not recognise by us, until the shAstra points it out or teaches us to recognize.

Brahman remains as attributeless consciousness in every object name and form but it itself is free of names and forms.
Space is brahman ( borrowed existence from brahman), but brahman is free of spaceness.
Air is brahman ( borrowed existence from brahman), but brahman is free of airness.
Water is brahman ( borrowed existence from brahman), but brahman is free of waterness.

Therefore we talk of two levels of reality. Brahman is sathyam, and all that stands upon brahman with its own attributes and names and forms is mithya.
Appreciate that the mithya object is also brahman, but brahman is not the mithya object. Just like a bangle and a necklace is also gold, but gold is free from bangleness or necklaceness.
