[Advaita-l] Message of the Upanishads

[sreenivasa murthy]

Respected members,
   Mother Sruti declares :

       sa  AtmA sa  VijnEyaH || Mandukya mantra 7

>From the above quoted mantras it follows that

Aham which is myself and which is HERE and NOW

is  BUmA, Atman, Brahman. And also I amanantam and advaitam.

 I am HERE & NOW.

Hence where nAnuis there which is HERE & NOW,

There is no second thing besides me which can beseen,

Which can be heard or which can be thought about.

So I AM advaitatattva.

 
This is the only conclusion one that can be drawnfrom the above quoted Sruti mantras.
I request the the very well versed Scholars in Vedanta 
to ponder over the implications of these mantrasand show how what has been stated in these mantras is a fact of life.
This litmus test to all the great scholars of this group.

With respectful namaskars,Sreenivasa Murthy.
