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?
