Hare Krishna.

 

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.

 

I have come across the following url: -

 

http://sriranganatha.tripod.com

 

This website contains articles on Sri Vaishnavism and

some are directed towards refuting the Gaudiya

Siddhanta. Without going into personal criticisms,

would any devotee on this list care to comment on the

siddhantic aspect of these refutations from the

Gaudiya viewpoint?

To be honest, no.. I'm not interested in commenting/refuting these

so-called refutations. The e-mail address on the front page is one

that I recognize - it belongs to a South Indian engineer living in

Switzerland with whom I had several heated (on his part, not mine)

discussions re: Chaitanaya paramapara via Madhva. The "refutations"

are verbatim articles taken from Anand Karalapakkam's postings on

the Bhakti List years ago. I very much doubt if our Swiss-Indian

engineer friend even understands them.

 

Anyway, Gerald and I have addressed many of these points of Anand's

in the past but he just keeps going. Vinode is the same. You can't

have a discussion with someone who is convinced he is correct. But

by all means, if someone else wants to post a refutation, feel free.

Myself, I'm kind of tired of having to beat dead horses. Which is

not to say it isn't a worthwhile endeavor in principle... just

realize that you will probably have the same experience I did:

you'll do all this work and assemble all this evidence, only to have

everything you said ignored and the "refutations" continue.

 

These people should realize that there are bigger threats to

their "parama vaidika sampradayam" than Gaudiya Vaishnavism. I asked

the question of Vinode, and I will ask it again here. If all these

Vaishnava brahmins from the South are so interested in propagating

their religion and having all sorts of esoteric discussions which

they probably don't understand, then why are they leaving their

traditional callings in India for the West to become software

professionals?

As far as i have heard,it is sarvasamvadhini where ABAT doctrine is exlplained

and i am afraid if baladeva's has mentioned it at all.

It would be great if some one comes up with a tranlsation of that.

Once we have that then we can attempt to compare and judge the 2 schools of

thought.

Thanx
