[Advaita-l] New members

[Belavadi Shankar]

Welcome to the group Sir. I am also a new member just about  a few months.
I spend most of my time reading Geeta, the Upanishads and Brahma Sutra -
the so called 'Prasthana triya'. I know I have a lot to learn. I find this
group
very helpful.

Thank you for choosing this group
