Re: My Experiences with ISKCON
Namaskar Suresh,
We can always remove the word 'believes', and it'll read: As advaita defines the truth negatively
Defining involves assumptions. And the only assumption Advaita relies on are the Abheda srutis of Vedas. Following a course of action also depends on the faith on the validity of definitions etc.
But the
fact of existence is never questioned or denied.
This is the finest point from you. However, logic alone cannot get the truth that the existence is one, without help from Sruti. Shankara is very emphatic on this.
Om

That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
