[Advaita-l] Śaṅkara's Silence: Śiva and the Hidden Absolute

[V Subrahmanian]

Namaste

In the uploaded file, I noticed an error in the opening sentence: The
Shvetashvatara Upanishad was stated as 'one of the canonical ten principal
Upanishads', which is incorrect.  Therefore, I made the correction there
and uploaded the updated version here:

Please replace your already downloaded file with this one.

Thanks and regards
