Dear Bhagavatas,

Please note, the material posted should be read carefully, and
contemplated on overtime.  A cursory read will not reveal the essence of
the posts.  Further, note these posts are only a guide and a precursor.
There is a point beyond which self inquiry cannot take you.  At this point
one has to turn to his or her Acharya.  Seek him out, with the utmost
devotion; surrender to him.  Any further reduction of the domination of
avidya karma can only occur through him.  In fact, If one is fortunate
enough to be in close proximity to his or her Acharyan, he or she should
learn directly from him, and not resort to the less perfect method (self
inquiry.)

Note, however, that one has to use his or her free will to get him or
herself to a point where he or she is capable of total and unconditional
surrender (if one is not already at that point.)

Adiyen
