Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Dear Sri U.Ve.M.S.Hari, I look forward to the outline of the meaning soon. But I do have a question: Ekalavya in Maha-bharatham did not learn 'formally' as Arjuna did under Drona-charyar. But Ekalavya was well versed in Archery compared to Arjuna, even if Arjuna did learn formally under the Super Vision of Dronacharyar. Likewise, although I feel that there is no substitute for Guru-Upadesham, how would the incident of Ekalavya be interpreted? Ekalavya did not formally learn Archery under drona-charyar. He (Ekalavya) made a vigraham of Drona-charyar and practiced archery. Please consider my questions.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 SrI: Dear Sri Malolan, Your query is thought provoking and very good. Let me think loud with you. If only had we got the AchArya bhakti of Ekalavya, then only we need to dwelve into it further. Do we have is first question? Even if it is yes, will we be able to still forego our thumb had we been " Ekalavyas " ? We (at least I) would have said " Never. You never taught me. Now you want my thumb. This is unfair completely. " That is the level of his AchArya bhakti and ours (mine.) Exceptions do not prove the rule. PeriyAzhwAr never had Guru but established the Vedic truth... Gurumukham anadhIthyam.. My two cents worth. Regards Narayana Narayana adiyEn AChAryan Thiruvadi. ----Original Message Follows---- " Malolan Cadambi " <mcadambi " Malolan Cadambi " <mcadambi " Malolan Net " , " M.S.HARI Madabhushi Sarangarajan Hari " <mshari Ekalavya and Guru-Upadesham Tue, 13 Feb 2001 19:15:39 -0600 Dear Sri U.Ve.M.S.Hari, I look forward to the outline of the meaning soon.
