Tim Said about his website: In the spirit of Advaita Vedanta it is > non-exclusionary and covers many aspects of Advaita, including links to > many religions on the Web. Tom: I visited your great site, Tim...and found it very interesting and sincere. However, The Jews, Christians and Moslems would say that you are a 'mite' exclusionist...wouldn't you agree? I copied and pasted the following from your page...I hope you don't mind! Teachings & Philosophies: Nondualism / Nonduality (Advaita) Theosophy The Headless Way Buddhism (Old) Buddhism (New) Buddhism (Tibetan) Buddhism (Zen) Taoism Advaita Vedanta (Beginning) Advaita Vedanta (Advanced) Hinduism (General) Tantric Traditions Shaivism Kabbalah Baha'i Jainism Tim Said: > > " ONLY two kinds of people can attain > >self-knowledge : those who are not encumbered at all with > >learning, that is to say, whose minds are not over-crowded > >with thoughts borrowed from others; and those who, after > >studying all the scriptures and sciences, have come to realise > >that they know nothing " . > > " I " fit quite well the second definition.

Remember what Sri Ramakrishna said: " Have you ever noticed that when you put a pencil and paper in front of an idiot, the first thing he does, is start to write? " ...You know I am only joking...it's not my fault, blame Jody! She's the one who put me into this silly frame of mind with her humerous postings...Bless Her!! Tim Says: What is knowledge or ignorance. Is there such a duality that > exists? tom: Knowledge is only recognized when contrasted with ignorance and vice-versa. Blessings and Love!
