It is indeed sad to see Mayavada being gloriously discussed in the Sri
Vaishnava forum following Ramanuja Muni.

Dear Bhagavathas,
All are creations and evolutions of God.
The saying " Aham BrahmAsmi" has a lot of
meaning.
All are incarnations of God, even us too.
We all are his creations as a part of
Maya Leela.
I was once reading the biography of
Swami Vivekananda. I came across this.
On his first meeting with Sri Ramakrishna,
Narendra(Swami Vivekananda before becoming
Sanyasi) asks him , where he finds.
Sri Ramakrishna replies "right in front of
me". After a while , he says "in you and also
in me, He is everywhere".
Mysteries of mankind and inter-woven mysteries of
evolution are really good to feel.
Such info must be shared to know how Jnana itself has
evolved in time.
With kind regards
Thuphal Vijayaraghava Dasan

Swamin,
This is a great info. Tks.
But, if you compare this with our list and the
evolution of Man, ours stand the scientific scrutiny.
