[Advaita-l] Sringeri Days

[Aditya Kumar]

 He might be a real person but it's hard to believe he is a 'siddha purusha'. If he is a recluse, he'd be living in the woods or be a wandering monk. When he is s living in a city, there is no compelling reason to hide. If you like to have a quiet life, you don't go around telling ppl that you are a siddha. It makes us think that he is hiding because he is not a siddha or even prodigious. He is hiding because it's all a lie, a propaganda.

 Well- from memory, and thinking of the English translation, there is a
small tone of ambivalence there (something like "...if he said so, it must
be true").

Umesh is very much a real person. I believe what he reports is the truth.
Nevertheless, one side effect off all this is a Umesh-groupism, and an
unnecessary distraction.
