[Advaita-l] ***UNCHECKED*** Re: [advaitin] Understanding Srimad Bhagavad Gita from the perspectives of Visishtadvaita and Advaita - an exposition

[Krishna Kashyap]

pranams Bhaskar Ji,

Reconciliation can never occur at the mass level. They are not driven by
the same principles open-minded and deep thinkers are driven by.

No one can help this situation with the masses unless strong leaders can
make this happen over years or centuries.

*Best Regards,*

*Krishna Kashyap*
