Deletions
Deleting links as a link-farm. I am not sure there isn't some Ahamkara in these deletions...Convince me it isn't prejudice or inappropriate..........--24.207.41.230 18:59, 7 January 2006 (UTC)Tony O'Clery. I have reinserted the link to the GThomas for it is another treatment of Advaita from a Gnostic Christian view, which well could have originated in India. It is not self promotion as there doesn't seem to be any other treatments of GThomas according to Vedanta. Also the purports were added to an already existing text. So please don't interfere with things that you obviously do not understand. User:Aoclery|Aoclery]] 21:55, 4 April 2006 (UTC)Tony O'Clery I have reinstated the links as they are most appropriate to the article for they are the main authors and philosophers in this subject. Anyone who would say they have no relevance to the article doesn't understand Ajativada and where it came from and who taught it..--Aoclery 22:44, 8 December 2006 (UTC)Tony O'Clery. I deleted some external links and listed each reason in the edit summary. The link to the gnostic gospel seems to be original research. Perhaps if there are articles about the relationship between the gnostic gospels and AV, in published journals, then we can use those. Also, I think that a link to a message in a yahoo forum does not meet WP:EL. Feel free to discuss this with me on my talk page or here.TheRingess 23:19, 8 December 2006 (UTC) The treatment of the GThomas is only in relation to the interpretation to Vedantic Non Dual Philosophy. The

translations were not original just the commentary. There would be no other as far as I know..--Aoclery 23:45, 8 December 2006 (UTC)Tony O'Clery. It probably counts as original research and we can't link to it.TheRingess 00:01, 9 December 2006 (UTC) Weasel words are hardly avoidable in discussing mysticism...........However whoever put that notice there may take time out and explain to me how weasel words are verifiable in Ajativada or forever hold his peace.............Tony Preceding unsigned comment added by Aoclery (talk contribs) 19:01, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Request for specific citations

Hello, I am trying to determine if the term ajtivda is primarily used by one or more of the specific modern authors mentioned in the article or if it has a prior use in traditional Indian philosophy as is implied in the article. There are no footnotes giving citations to any classical texts. The adjective ajti ( ) can mean "eternal, not produced" (Apte, p. 23), as well as some other things such as not having a specific caste membership. I am unable to find the word used as a technical term in traditional Indian philosophy. The article cites verse 426 of Viveka Chudamani and gives a translation but does not cite the source. The translation of that verse in the Turiyananda editon (p. 195) is very different, and the Sanskrit text does not use the term ajti or have any obvious connection to the point being made in the article. Since the citation has no reference I think it should be cut pending clarification of what the relevance is. The Mandukyakarika is cited but with no line number, so the citation cannot be verified. Can someone supply a line number? Buddhipriya (talk) 23:55, 29 March 2010 (UTC). RAMANA MAHARSHI IN 'BE AS YOU ARE' BY DAVID GODMAN...WHERE HE MENTIONS AJATIVADA SHOULD BE ENOUGH FOR ANYBODY....TONY.
