Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition
GM (aka N.W.)- You must have misunderstood my PM to you which simply said "Hi, I thought your post was more appropriate in the 'Mistakes --' stream" . Which was not a request for you to move it this stream. But as you have done it, you now have two copies of a post which is clearly not a g...

Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition
MEDITATION or DHYANA The term "meditation" is wide ranging in its meaning nowadays. It can be anything from a method using music, yantras (visual shapes), focus on breathing, use of mantras or other sounds etc. etc. But we should know that in the decade before the Maharishi came to the UK,...

Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition
One of my reasons to engage with this forum is to try and correct some of the negative attitudes I have seen with relation to the Indian Holy tradition and its truly honest advocates (by which I do not mean SES leaders). This negativeness aimed in such a way is not spiritually healthy for people to ...

Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition
Bonsai -- the quote I gave from the Bhagavad Gita answers your query about "OK not to follow the path". Any person who truly lives their life by the wisdom in the Bhagavad Gita - would never think that another persons choice is wrong. This path is an all or nothing - you follow all the tea...

Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition

Then your story will change constantly unless you have a phenomenal memory of all the untruths told ...

Re: Mistakes against the Shankaracharya Tradition
Dear Bonsai, My wife and I left SES after our second child was born. The reason was that SES was beginning to tell us what we should do with regard to our private family affairs and with regard to the children. We had a third child while we were at The Study Society (SSNP). We continued there for ab...

Re: Sydney School for Self Knowledge
Tootsie - In India generally no-one, who is part of a traditional spiritual path, would ever say that someone else's way is wrong. It is the results of any path that count - and who knows what works for who?. However, it is considered quite widely in India that Krishna Murti was a Self Realised soul...
