Namaste Gregji,

 

Thanks for a lucid and brilliant statement.

 

It is hard to generalize about 'Indian bacground'! At least

personally, the 'What' question was more important than the 'Why' one.

 

There is no doubt that exposure to the Hindu scriptures, not

to mention the cultural attitudes, cushions the transition from a

doubter to a believer!

 

Many thanks again.

 

 

Regards,

 

Sunder
