''Lillamurḍhyā'' may also be explained as "harmony of everything" or, in a human perspective, "state of least impact". According to this interpretation, humans are the most flawed part of nature and to harm is their own character, so that they need to reach the state where they harm (or, in other terms, impact) the least on the other faces of nature. This is a more recent interpretation, pioneered around the mid-6th millennium by the monks of Yælklintas Monastery in the Southern Far East. | ''Lillamurḍhyā'' may also be explained as "harmony of everything" or, in a human perspective, "state of least impact".

Some philosophers, notably the monks of Vīramāṇaka Monastery in the Western Plain, consider ''yunya'' and ''lillamurḍhyā'' to be essentially the same thing, ''lillamurḍhyā'' being the main, abstract concept and ''yunya'' being its tangible state. The term ''lillamurḍhyāyunya'' refers to this interpretation. | Some philosophers, notably the monks of Vīramāṇaka Monastery in the Western Plain, consider ''yunya'' and ''lillamurḍhyā'' to be essentially the same thing, ''lillamurḍhyā'' being the main, abstract concept and ''yunya'' being its tangible state. The term ''lillamurḍhyāyunya'' refers to this interpretation; this contrasts to the more mainstream interpretation of ''lillamurḍhyā'' being a state and ''yunya'' a force. | ||
