      @Darren your level of thinking and grasp of Truth is just kindergarten level and don't blame you for having such low level of I Q .. majority of the human kind , the mass , are like you only..
      the class , the leaders of the human beings are a always in minority... but they are the beacon lights of this species ..
      As per these ABRHAMIC RELIGIONS , like all THOSE religions like Judaism, xianity, Islam ..., all those originated OUTSIDE India , , do you Know , as per their tenets , your parents , grand parents, great grand parents , great great.. ,it goes like that , all of them are turning on in their graves , waiting for the stupid judgement day , infinitely waiting ....
      Likewise , as per these RELIGIONS and Its concept , after your death , you will also be joining your ancestors , waiting in the grave..... Infinitely for ever...
      Likewise , your children will also be joining you in the grave , waiting for the judgement day, infinitely for ever..
      I pity that majority of the human population is such a sheer stupid foolish idiots .... to believe such cock and bull story of Bible, khuran and Tora....
      What a stupid idiots...
      THE FINAL JUDGEMENT DAY, THEN VISA ISSUANCE TO HEAVEN FOR A CHOSEN FEW AND FOR THE REST EXPULSION TO HELL ...
      THEN THOSE WHO GOT VISA TO HEAVEN , ENJOYING WITH BEAUTIFUL DAMES AND WINE FOR EVER AFTER... ( AGAIN , THIS IS ONLY FOR MEN , FOR WOMEN EVEN HEAVEN IS A HELL , DESTINED TO PLEASE MEN FOLK.. BIBLE IS SO PARTIAL TO MENFOLK )
      AND
      THOSE PUSHED TO HELL , GETTING FRIED AND ROASTED IN THE HELL FIRE FOR EVER AFTER...
      BUT , NOBODY KNOWS WHEN THAT JUDGMENT DAY COMES AND FINISH THE AGONY OF SUSPENSE OF ELIGIBILITY TO HEAVEN OR PUNISHMENT TO HELL...
      YOU GOT TO WAIT INFINITELY... AS PER THESE UTTERLY FOOLISH, STUPID RELIGIOUS FAITHS...
      AGAIN , I PITY THOSE STUPID IDIOTS WHO FOLLOW SUCH RELIGIOUS FAITHS...
      EVEN THIS GUY JESUS HAS TO DESCENT FROM HEAVEN AGAIN , AND VISIT THIS EARTH TO DO THE JUDGEMENT ... EVEN THE PROHET MUHAMMED WILL BE WAITING IN HIS GRAVE , AND AS PER KHURAN , HIS TOMB WILL BE THE FIRST ONE TO BREAK OPEN AND RELEASE HIM... TILL SUCH A TIME HE IS ALSO TURNING IN HIS GRAVE... AND THIS POOR JESUS ALL THIS TIME KILLING TIME WITH GOD ALL ALONE , KEEPING HIS BELOVED APOSTLES WAITING IN THEIR GRAVES...
      we now know that there are millions of super clusters of galaxies with trillions of galaxies having trillion trillions of stars and zillion zillions of planets.. and life ...
      These stupid ABRHAMIC RELIGIONS could think of only this planet and human centric life...
      Just kindergarten syllabus only...
      YOU STUPID IDIOTS , GO TRY TO STUDY WHAT INDIAN PHILOSOPHY SAYS.. ' aham brahmasmi ' I am the god , ( here , god concept taught by these stupid ABRHAMIC RELIGIONS is taken for convenience of lesser intellectuals. ) I am no less than the god , or I can become the god , or I can realise the god and become it...or I am also perfectly eligible to become the god ..
      BY MEDITATING UPON THE TRUTH , BY CONTEMPLATING THE REAL ' I '..WHO AM I ...MY POSSESSIONS , MY DEGREES , MY BODY, MY FACE , MY LIMPS , MY MIND , WHO AM I REALLY , cut off my face , cut off my limps one by one , still ' I ' remains.. loose control of the mind and become insane and lunatic , still I am the mad man remains...
      EXPAND THIS ' I ' FROM THIS EGOCENTRIC , LIMITED THOUGHT OF I , TO THE VAST LIMITLESS EXPANSE OF THIS COSMOS ,
      YOU CAN'T FIND EVEN A SIGN OF THESE ABRHAMIC GODS LIKE JESUS,YAHOVA,HOLIFATHER, ALLAH...etc etc THESE STUPID FOOLS ARE LIKE A MIRAGE IN THE DESERT..A BIG NAUGHT..
      BUT I REMAIN , EVEN THEN ....,....

      You have no rights to belittle Jagadguru Adi Shankaracharya or any of his shishya Jagadgurus, for they do so much work for Sanatana Dharma, and Buddhism is something that observes completely different principles to Hinduism, i know this because I am well associated with the sringeri peetham and i can confirm you are wrong

    In my childhood, whever I visited my village, in the nights when lights were off, and there were not much electricity so stars in the sky was always visible, during summer we would sleep on the terrace, there during the night stories like these would be told by elders. That used to be something. Now I appreciate all the organic way of living in village, suddenly it became about having a lot of material as if if you don't have materials filled in your house you are poor. Things have change for bad and I have realized what was the good way to live.

      I live in Sringeri too. Truly enthralled to hear this wonderful discourse today. An interesting coincidence is that I recognise Sri. Murali ji as my old friend (nearly 3 decades back) whom I have met in the US where he did his Masters in Computer science during that time I was a postdoc in the Biochemistry Department, Kansas State University . Feeling so happy and proud that he is now a marvelous Spiritual Master and a Director of a world class Spiritual Center in the tradition of Sri. Paramahansa Yogananda🙏

    I am very fascinated with Adi Guru Shankaracharya. Some believe he was incarnate of Shiva himself. Nevertheless, the whole “Shastrarth” between three of great souls had never been retold like the revered Guru Muraliji. I listened to him because of his way of describing things that conjures up the vivid images of story coming alive. This surely is not just a story you listen to often but rather a feeling of tasting some divine elixir after long long thirst. Just savouring that elusive ecstasy of a craving soul. Please do bless us with many more stories about of our culture and religion.
