[Advaita-l] Advaita Siddhi series 052 - asatassādhakatvopapatti:

[S Venkatraman]

Namaste Venkatji,

I get a feeling from Sadaji’s post that you are hosting this series of your write-ups on Advaita Siddhi on your website. Can you please share you website URL here so that I and others can go through them at our own pace. 

Thank you very much and regards,
Venkat
