Dear Empty and FFL Moderators, Empty; your thunderbird quip here is an incredibly unkind slight of a fellow poster here likely in violence to the Yahoo-groups guidelines about unkindness on Yahoo-groups. Who could possibly want to reply to it?
However, evidently there is some enmeshment with Hindoo-ism and the Shankaracharyas. First off of course Guru Dev was one of them. And, the pandits north of town here seem mighty Hindoo. But recently MahaRaja Nader Raam [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Nader http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Nader ] did appeal to the judiciary of the Shankaracharya to assert his own primacy over a recent coup d'état attempt by TM Mother Divine along with an Indian contingent. Our Shankaracharya evidently adjudicated the case to some kind of peace placing MahaRaja Nader Raam in primacy. We had a very nice birthday party last night for Nader Raam our MahaRaja and guru. He has been traveling holding satsanga and teaching with meditators. He brings the field effect of Love, Unification and Revitalization where ever he goes visiting with people. The effect of his presence is great spiritually and nourishing. Jai Brahmananda Saraswati, -Buck in the Dome emptybill... wrote: Apparently Thunderbird doesn't allow you to understand common English. So I'll repeat my question ... "What is the position of the TMO towards the authority of the Shankaracharyas since the TMO is technically not a Hindoo organization?" Does anyone on the list know the views of the Shankaracharyas? What about all the Western quasi-Hindus going to temples and doing Hindu stuff? The pandit and at the temple here accepted my status and performed pujas, rudra-abhishekas, agni-hotras and death rites for my wife as if I was a Hindu. However, I don’t know if the Shankaracharyas are equally accepting.
