"Only one is the fire,which is inflamed in numerous ways.Only one is the sun, which pervades the whole universe.Only one is the dawn,which illuminates all things. Similarly,all that exists is The One and it has manifested into everything here.”
~ Rg Veda 8.58.2

Amazing thread and well done to the more lengthy contributors, who write extremely well; I'm kind-of busy over here but will try to find more time to contribute.
I'm British but some years back was applying to US universities and emailed Doniger- her reply was brief and badly written in order to indicate she was far more important than writing with capital letters and full stops to a prospective student. She's just an academic- they research some interesting things and credit where it's due but the heart isn't there and they create sky castles of theorizing without reference or aesthetic spiritual experience or even the reality of actually travelling in India.
Best, Girisha
Be without the three gunas, O Arjuna
