" but come to think of it.. even though i'm more hippopotamus than potato or banana.. a fun toy werner would be ok too. :-) ..b b.b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Ok, what makes them potatoes and bananas, can you substantiate your comment by providing some content of their teaching that illustrates the difference? How are their philosophies different? Nisargadatta , " wwoehr " <wwoehr wrote: > > > > Nisargadatta , Santosh Lamichhane <santosh_ln@> wrote: > > > > How are Nisargadatta and U.G.
