Vidyasankar, I see that you have no answer to the question of the Atman's avidya and you are harping on insignificant issues. If you want to remove me from the forum, feel free to do so. I have no time to write lengthy posts. I have nothing else to add.

 Yes, I was a previous member of the list. You can find some
 of my posts in the archives. You can see here for example

 February/
 
 I see a
 new member introduction from a Kalyan in Sep 2011, followed
 by some activity from a gmail account with a different
 username (kalyankc.81) between Oct 2011 and Feb 2012. After
 that burst of activity, you seem to have dropped off the
 Advaita-L map from March 2012 onward, till now,
 resubscribing to the list with a different email ID. At
 least, I can't find anything from a Kalyan in the
 archives over the intervening five years.
 There's nothing saying that you
 shouldn't do this, although I don't quite recommend
 it. At the least, when you unsubscribe and resubscribe, you
 could be more transparent with the moderators in the new
 introduction note that you send us.  
 
 
 
 Having said that, I dont believe I have to prove anything to
 you. You dont need to boss around just because you are a
 moderator.
 
 Ah, there is that attitude again.
 One of the jobs of a moderator is to keep the peace among
 list members. At this point, you certainly need to prove to
 us that you can participate in discussions with other
 members of this list in a civil manner and that you can
 express your disagreement with their views in a measured
 manner, instead of getting hot under the collar at the
 slightest instance. In your responses to various list
 members in March and April of 2017, your content and tone
 seemed designed to make the moderators of this list pay
 special attention to you. If you think that is me bossing
 you around, you certainly need to rethink your expectations
 of what is involved in the moderation of a discussion forum
 online. You can check with the 500 others on this list, how
 much we moderators actually boss them
 around. 
 Seriously,
 what exactly are you trying to prove with this belligerence
 of yours? What do you hope to achieve by rejoining after a
 hiatus of five years (assuming you were not on the list in
 the meantime anyway, under a different avatar) and
 immediately picking fights with list members and
 moderators?
