Dear Shastriji,

 

praNAms,

 

Thanks much for your kind response and correction. I was surprised

to see the quote of this bhAshya by couple of people without giving

proper context, to formulate the 'interpretations' of their own!! I

had little doubt (since the authors were knowledgeable persons);at

the same time I had a feeling that it was absurd to the core! Hence

I thought of putting this in the group and to get feedback.

 

As you have told, we have to be ultra careful while studying some

passages. Else there will be lot of problems.

 

Yours in Sri Ramakrishna,

 

Br. Vinayaka.

Namste Br. Vinayaka-Ji:

 

Sanskrit grammer clearly warns us about this self study:

 

na tu pR^ithaktvena mantraH shabdaH va nirvaktvyaaH prakaraNasha

evatu nirvaktavyaaH ||

 

With best wishes in self-study.
