Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Hello all. I was wondering if Nisargadatta ever named an official succesor. I'm not really thinking of Balsekar or the Neo Advaitists like Sailor Bob, but someone who perhaps may be carrying on Nisargadatta's teachings in India.

Nisargadatta held no patent on what is. There is no import to lineages whatsoever.a wire that transmits electricity is not itself that electrical phenomenon. wires and transmitters come and go and in and of themselves have no significance. ......bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
