[Advaita-l] 'End' not 'Means'

[Aditya Varun Chadha]

Yes, I personally dislike Ad Hominem attacks in arguments, they serve
no real purpose except making things unnecessarily bitter. Here I
agree with Kadambi ji. Whoever is trying to undermine the argument by
tainting the arguer's image, please find out what "Ad hominem" means
and why it is a logical fallacy.
