Gaudapada Karika 1:18.............ONS..Tony. Namaste All, I posted this at some other sites and the reaction in the main, if at all was negative. Even on so called non dual sites, the reaction was negative or derisive. I found it quite interesting, and it makes one understand more what Nisargadatta said when he said, 'only one man/person in Bombay/Mumbai can understand non-duality even intellectually'. In other words only 60,000 people on the entire planet can grasp it intellectually never mind realise it....ONS..Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
