Pranaams,
A very well articulated excerpt from the book.
Many of my long standing doubts were cleared.

And true as the sampradaya says, Jagadguru Mahaswamiji has once again come
to me in the form of this book/excerpt to guide me.
Thank you very much for this.
My sincere request to please post more such excerpts for the benefit of
layman like me and others.


Namaha Shankaraya
Abhinand
