A WONDERFUL piece of practical advice !! - many a time it has kept such poor souls as adiYen from thinking or doing wrong - may be this is what other religions call as 'developing a personal relationship with God' Humbly, Ashok Krishnamurthy --- sadagopaniyengar <sadagopaniyengar@xxxx> wrote: > > Srimate SrivanSatakopa Sri Vedanta Desika Yatindra > Mahadesikaya nama: > > > > The Vigilant > Witness > > > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
