Guest guest Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Thanks for your comments on my quote from Nisargadatta. From here, there's too much focus on " newer " teachers in the advaita world these days, when we have these two spiritual giants (Sri Ramana Maharshi and Nisargadatta) to take our pointers from. I definitely agree with Harsha (I think it was him who said it anyway) that " neo-advaita " in general is hurting the whole field of advaita - can we skip our sadhana, just pretend that we're " always already awake " ? I don't think so, and have always recommended self-enquiry, Just BE-ing and 'direct seeing' to folks who drop by my list. Thanks again, and peace to everyone, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean, that to strip down to Just Be-ing: Awareness through neti neti I agree. I wonder how do the neo-advaita get to this 'state'. Does staying in the Now like Tolle would achieve the same ? > Thanks again, and peace to everyone, > > Tim Era Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
