Guest guest Posted October 1, 1998 Report Share Posted October 1, 1998 Namaste everyone. I have just joined the list and to my great surprize during reading a digest there was my Sannyas name Sadananda..I am a disciple of Osho who gave me this name..After Osho left his body in keeping with his advice to always look for a living master I became a disciple of Alexander Smit, who was a realized disciple of Nisargadatta Maharaj..Alexander Smit was a wonderful exponent of the Advaita philosophy. He died very recently at quite a young age. He gave his disciples so much and he is sorely missed. He used to give a week-long group every summer. The topic the year before last was the teachings of Ramana Maharshi. This has appeared in book formunder the title "Het Directe Pad" in Dutch..The topic this summer was to have been "Advaita: Your innermost Secret." Once more greetings to all of you and I hope to hear from you and take part in some discussions. Another Sadananda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the list, Sri Pasiencier. Interesting you mention Nisargadatta Maharaj, because my first guru, Ramesh Balsekar, was Maharaj's disciple. In fact, Ramesh came to the Munich area this summer. Perhaps you were in the area... Again, welcome! --Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
