Maybe, but that has nothing to do with what I was talking about - the
sentiment of Bhakti. Not Bhakti as path, with all its specifics as you
wrongly believe. It really has nothing to do with me at all. I don't
see anything in this whole random collection but another attempt to
dump Bhakti, most of the things have nothing to do with Bhakti anyway.
There is just this vague pretense of concern and warning, hardly a
disguise for your anti-Bhakti sentiment. And how would you know what
Bhakti is, as you just admitted that it's not your path (not that it
should be your path, but you also seem to have no use for the
sentiment of it.)

Not that one again... why do you continue to talk of things you really
didn't get right? First you accuse me of preaching you, and then you
bring it up ad neaseum.It's obvious you can't deal with an impersonal
perspective.

Rushdie surely made some mistakes. He is very cynical, yet he is a
genial writer. Midnight Children is really grant.
