Yeah, I think that's Asanga that I quoted. And, that's what I've been saying for about ten years. Judy and Vaj were the respondent who understand the TMer parallels to the Vijnanavada. Go figure. "The real is non-dual. It's neither existence nor non-existence, neither affirmation nor negation, neither identity nor difference, neither one nor many, neither pure nor impure, neither production nor destruction." - Arya Asanga, 'Mahaayaana Sutralamkaara' http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/308218 and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/308188 Subject: gauDapAdIya kArikAs Author: willytex Newsgroups: alt.meditation.transcendental Date: Sun, 08 Dec 2002 10:08:04 -0600 Local: Sun, Dec 8 2002 11:08 am http://tinyurl.com/c962jvb
