Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Namaste, Many recent posts, esp those by Chittaranjan-ji, had references to pravRtti dharma & nivRtti dharma. The advaitin position on pravRtti & nivRtti is clear cut as the latter emphasizes the renunciation of all karma. I suppose this is also related to the division of the veda into karma-kANDa and jnAna kANDa. But what is the position of other sampradaaya-s, such as the Sri-vaiShNavam, on this issue? Do sampradaaya-s that accept jnaanakarmasamuccaya have any need for distinguishing between pravRtti & nivRtti? If yes, what specifically is the distinction? If no, what is the position/requirement of saMnyAsa in such traditions? While this question does not pertain specifically to advaita-vedAnta, I think it is important to understand: 1) where is it that advaita-vedAnta departs from other sampradaaya-s 2) what is a specific advaitin position as opposed to a generic Hindu position or a position shared by several sampradaaya-s dhanyavaadaH Ramesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
