Guest guest Posted July 21, 1999 Report Share Posted July 21, 1999 Dear members, After reading my posts on the Mani-initiated discussion on "material comfort and spititual pursuit", many of you have sent me private mails in which you have posed further questions. Some of these are personal in nature. Please note that I have neither the competence nor the moral authority to advise you. I am as much a "loukeeka-jantu" as you all maybe are. I am in the dock too, right there with you all! All I did in my posts was to quote from an "AchAryA's" speech and tried to show the deep chasm that exists between the Vedic ideal we all say we espouse and the way we actually put it to practice in our lives. The objective of my posts was not to preach but to merely mirror. I wanted to show that there is something called the IDEAL way of vedic living that the sAstrA decribes... and there is something else like an abject apology for it which we in the modern world like to imagine can be passed off as not being close to the original perhaps, but good enough, nonetheless, for the present times! If you must seek advice for your personal dilemmas I strongly urge you all to approach your respective "AchAryA-s" and mentors... your best friends in such matters. Others who have posed questions at an impersonal, academic level I will respond to you individually in personal mails. Regards, Sudarshan ____ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
