Here is an answer from Sage Ramana on an analogous question. >The answer applies to this situation also: >I am telling you that there is no snake. There is only the rope. But you >want to spend time on whether the snake was a cobra or not! A wise observation by Sri Ramana Maharshi that can be applied to a lot of intellectual debate. I can only speak for "myself," but I am not a Vedantic theologian or scholar. "My" purpose for being here is to see only the rope, not the snake. That's the only reason. I am tired, weary to the bone, of being chained to the karma-mandala like a beast of burden. I sense too many lifetimes, the same things repeated over and over without anything changing. It is time to end it. Hari OM, Tim ----- Visit The Core of the WWW at: http://www.eskimo.com/~fewtch/ND/index.html Music, Poetry, Writings on Nondual Spiritual Topics.
