no, it is because they know that harsha is open minded enough to

seperate the chaff from wheat and sees beyond apperances, to the

intent. true virtue fears no critique. it is only hypocrites,

conscious or not, who fear the forms and grow pale when they hear the

word "ass" or something like this. everything - everything! has place

in this creation, and in true ramana spirit has to be examined for

the content, not the form.

A discussion on politics in light of non-duality might be in order,

the dynamics of politics, not what any party stands for, but why do we

keep doing 'politics'?

 

Do we need to, and if so how?

 

Does politics pull us away from non-duality?

(Anyway, we probably need a rest from politics.)
