[Advaita-l] Only a Vedantin can express these words of wisdom

[Venkatesh Murthy]

Namaste

Yes Dvaita is fanatic but they are also followers of Dharma and Karmas like
Advaitis. There are small differences only  in Karmas like Upanayana,
Sandhyavandana and so on between Advaitis, Dvaitis and Visistadvaitis. They
are also vegetarians. They are fanatic at thought level but in conduct they
are not violent like Mlecchas.

A person following Sanatana Dharma and performing the Karmas of Dharma
cannot be violent and bloodthirsty.

This is the reason for why they cannot be violent like Islam and
Christians.
