[Advaita-l] Acceptance of the validity of shruti is only *faith*

[Anbu sivam2]

Dear Abhilash Shatryji,

Suppose Sri Srinivasa Murthyji says 'yes' to your querry, would you believe
him?  If not it becomes clear you do not believe him even before you wrote
him the question.  If the answer is yes, of course, your question was
superfluous!

Regards,
Anbu
