This situation combined with the advance of the sciences has shown much religion for what it is -superstition. Superstition that many teachers came to try and correct from time to time. So when one clears the superstition from manipulative religions we get near the simplicity or the truth.......Even the present day Sudra or 'Working Class' has woken up to a certain degree.Some intellectuals haven't woken up-go to the Advaitin site if you want to see delusion and superstition couched in terms of 'enlightenment'........Tony. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
