    The curse?

    I understand. Perhaps that is why you could not see my postings. They are invisible to Indians as most meanings of old Indian texts.

    Re: Uttara Gita in three "English" chapters ?

    Beliefs are in short supply in sciforums. The proof of the pudding is in eating. So, if you have a different interpretation - let us have it.

    Then enlighten us, we are all eyes...

    What path is that? Have you been in our path? How do you know it is a fact? And misguided? Who is guiding? How do you know him/her? Did your guide had a fight with our guide? How do you know, we even have a guide for such a simple journey?

    UltiTruth,

    No, I don't mind elaborating. I was just trying to get things back
    on topic. IMO - we have strayed very far away from the original.
    If it bothers you, I can edit my post. I don't mind.

    I would be happy to elaborate (if I can) but I'm not sure
    what it is exactly that you want me to elaborate on. Do
    you mean explain what the quote I posted means? Or
    something else?

    Perhaps it is just me (very, very possible) but I think the quote is pretty self explanatory.
    Here is another translation (see below), does it make it any clearer as to its meaning?
    If not, I think you would be much better off asking kmguru to explain its meaning. In my
    opinion, he is far more knowledgeable than I am in this area and can explain it better.
    Not trying to put kmguru on the spot or anything.

    This one is quite self-explanatory. Thanks.

    Dear Rajagopals:

    I have waited a long time for someone to come forward and discuss Sanatana Dharma - like a spider weaving his trap...he he he...

    Looks like my wish may come true. When I have a little time, I would answer to your post. In the meantime, please visit my earlier post of my definition of Sanatana Dharma. Our debate may heat up a little but at no time I would like to attack personally and I hope, you do the same.

    The problem with debate on a forum like this is that, we can not write a book to get our point across. At the sametime, complex thoughts can not be explained in a few paragrapghs. Try doing that with Cellular automata or Cybernatics or theory of constraints, or Chaos theory and its practical applications etc. Normally I provide short answers - so sometimes one may not "get it" without reference to context". But we will try and have fun. OK?

    Raj,

    "Even though the universe is filled with almighty, like a blind man who can not see the sun, a man who is not interested to know the truth (blind with anger, arrogance and
    ignorance) will never understand the truth"

    This Blind with anger that you write... is it the real stuff in Uttar Gita? damm,you never know.'cause you know you might be following another translator author who has interpreted this sentence as this.Not realizing truth might also mean that GOD lives in another Dimension?

    isnt it? but thats my interpretation...

    what do you think?

    bye!
