Brahma Vidaynna Summava
But advaitha did not result in mass awareness of equality,instead a caste system ie jathi system is in place,in Indian polity.
Sir,
Advaitha is a philosophy...a path to divinity.
This is what Adi Shankara expressed and created five head quarters to spread advaitham.Therefore we still have our vedantham as hinduism now.The ability to understand how inextricably god is intertwined with us and viceversa is important piece of the puzzle of life.Whatever was 'equality' (or the sense of it) was designed by those of wanted to retain the reigns of ruling and power. Advaita is not responsible for any of that in any way. Advaitha is a path to God.
Its already a heady mixture.I am not creating anything new.:thumb:.Let us not mix up points of philosophy with social stuff.
Philosophies ultimately shape social way of life.Our advaitham was intelligently grabbed......there is no jathi or castes,equality is practiced with great fervour.
Philosphers may be social thinkers. In the past, they have influenced societies profundly, even changed it. But time and again they have remained helpless in face of men in arms who enforce stuff by way of violence and mental violence (greek world, arab world, early christian world..).

My post was about 'equality, ruling and power. But you are saying this is what Adi Shankara expressed...i am not able to understand the connotation or what you wish to convey clearly....but i want to clarify that Sri Shakara Bhagawatpada created the mutts to preserve hindusim, advaitam and the way to God. He was a monk. Shankaracharyas are monks, they are not into worldy pursuits such as ruling and power...their path is divinity, they are not into controlling anyone or anything...they are into preserving their own sampradayas...it seems to me that you are making statements of the disconnected kind...

Religion and politics are inextricably intertwined,whether its between Kings,Queens & sages,saints,Monks or Politicians and religious orders.May not be in obvious fashion,but its a subtle form of an alliance.

Spot on... people here develop a comfort zone and any disturbances are viewed skeptically, but that is natural, isnt it?Slowly i am beginning to get a hazy picture of people here,and sooner or later their persona gets created in a subtle form based on their writings.
