Guest guest Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Namaste, Members are reminded that the list policies and guidelines do not permit any member to make any derogatory remarks on saints / sages / teachers, and also on any religion. It is against the very spirit of Sanatana Dharma. We request members to focus their discussions on the subject matter and avoid making remarks on the personality of the poster. Posting in this list is a privilege and we are all expected to be responsible and be considerate to our fellow members. Plenty of kind and compassionate words are readily available and they can be used to express our disagreements and we should take steps to avoid words with high potentials for offending others. Warmest regards, List Moderators ---- To understand the misnomer of ‘Shankara Sampradya’, please study carefully, Kanchi Paramacharya’s replies to Prof. Nakamura’s questions: http://www.advaita-vedanta.org/series/shankara_sampradaya/sankara_sampradayam_to\ p.htm "....Therefore, NO NEW SAMPRADHAYA SUCH AS 'SHANKARA SAMPRADHAYA' HAS EVER GOT CREATED. WHEN THE ORIGINAL SMARTHA SAMPRADHAYAM OR THE VEDIC PATH BECAME DILAPIDATED IN BETWEEN, IT GOT REJUVENATED AND BROUGHT TO LIFE BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE BY SHANKARA. Therefore, if any one refers to it as 'Shankara sampradhAya', then it is wrong; even if I had referred to it that way, then also it is wrong......"
