[Guest guest]

Dear Sri Raman

 

With your permission I am posting this on the net. Thanks for your

appreciation. This life is so sapless. There is no real happiness in

earning or spending or even leading this life somewhat like an animal. In

such a life, it is a great boon that we get to learn some Vedanta here and

there.

 

Let us learn and participate in such discussions. Please do not take these

lectures as "pro- any vedantic system" . Everyone has an orientation and

even in my own home, my wife thinks different from me! Only by a lively

discussion we can understand the pros and cons of different view points. I

will convey your message to Dr. SMS chari.

 

He did mention that we could have gone much deeper into vedantic issues

beyond gita. However, you know how fast an hour passes and people start

thinking about Monday and the daily routines. We shall do more of such

lectures.

 

One thing which is clear is, there is no substitute for " Learned Teachers".

The way they handle the questions and issues is distinctly different. In

every lecture you learn something new. We should show utmost respect to our

teachers.

 

I thank every one who participated and special thanks to Smt. Nagu Satyan to
