Yes. Yes. What you say "is true". What others say - if it is not the same as what you say - "is false". This is what you present and assert. And you go round and round and round saying it over and over and over again. You have made yourself clear. Crystal clear. And you have decided to stop posting. I think this is a good idea.
What is your position.....do you have a position.
Do you accept those false teachings.
Am I wrong to point out where those teachings are wrong, and are misdirecting people.
You keep saying that I am against people that dont agree with me, but I am against false teachings in religion and science....are you?
You won,t present anything, so I dont know where you stand, except that you are against me...but why, what are you disagreeing with.
Are you against me pointing out the false teachings in religion and science...why?
Should I tow the line and accept those false teachings, to please you and everyone.
Do you even know what is false and what is truth....I do and I will always speak out against falsity even if i have to stand alone to do it.

In metaphysical speculation no one has a monopoly over what is "false" and "true". Metaphysical speculation is metaphysical speculation.
You have stated your opinions clearly.
I support your decision to bring your participation here to an end.

In Islam there is speculation.
In Buddhism there is speculation
But in the Vedanta Sutra there is no speculation, because the knowledge is coming from the Personality of Godhead at the beginning of creation, before the pen was even put to paper, to record history.
Did you know this
Do you care one way or the other.
Will you reject this...why?
I will end this tit for tat discussion, because while you purposely mis-interprete my words you will not understand.

Originally posted by vishvahetuYes. As I have said, you have stated your opinion about this clearly and repeatedly. And you have stated that you believe that people with opinions that deviate from yours hold "false" opinions. You have stated this clearly and repeatedly. Even you have now realised that asserting all this has run its course and that the time has come to stop posting. I see this as a wise move.

Truth about yourself and God is actually simple and not complicated.
It can be very deep if you want it to be, and the Vedic teachings have millions of verses that can be very intricate and deep if thats your thing.
But understanding the truth of life may be summed up in the following few statements:

My stay here is coming to an end, because finding an honest person amongst all these posters is impossible (the madness disease of illusion) is a powerful thing.
I never came here to preach Vedanta, but people where asking me how I new what i knew, and I had to tell them that Vedanta Sutra has been my source of knowledge.
I only ever started out ex ...[text shortened]... nd Vedanta came along later....and if you look at my postings, Vedanta was mentioned much later.
Like a visitor from a distant galaxy.
"...because finding an honest person amongst all these posters is impossible (the madness disease of illusion) is a powerful thing."
That's funny coming from you.
Ironically, I haven't really come across anyone in this forum who isn't honest. We don't agree for one reason or another, but I would never call anyone here a liar.
"The madness disease of illusion"? No doubt you know more about it than all of us.
I hate having to say that. 😳
You have way over complicated your case vishva. It's not "simple" at all.
Simple is a saviour.

Okay, so you got 5 out of 16 right (in my opinion).
Still a horribly failing grade in my book (31.25% ).
Even the serpent tells just enough truth to make men wonder about the rest.

These days the Vedic literature has been plundered by the British and the Germans, and because of their envy of this Superior knowledge, they destroyed many of the Sanskrit texts.
But we still have Vedanta Sutra which is the essence of spiritual instruction given to mankind.

Fortunately not one jot or tittle of God's word will pass away.
