I will PROVE mathematically that your method of relying on the combinations of Oxford meanings rather than context is foolish: Let S(t) = sentence number t of the composite sastra. Let k = Average number of words per sentence. Let m = Average number of meanings/word in the Oxford dictionary. The variations of meanings of S(t) = m^k (m to power of k). The probability function that your meaning is correct is: P(t) = 1/S(t) The probability that you have understand the sastra by this method is: PROD(P(t)) = PROD(1/S(t)). Take the limit as t->infinity (or very large number): lim P(t) (t->inf) = PROD(1/S(t)) = 1/((m^k)^inf) = ZERO, for m>1, k>0. Thus, it verifies Krsna's statement that although a person may speculate at the speed of the mind for many millions of years, he cannot approach even the tip of Lord Krsna's toes. Anyway, I'm off to Rathe-yatra so this is my last message in this thread. Sincerely, Virender http://www.krishnasoft.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
