    That's fine. I'm simply pointing out the facts of the matter.

    Actually you gave your opinion of probability in that instance. The fact is yet to appear.

    And no doubt it's the reason why Hinduism is such a unified philosophy. Maybe that's why adherents of some certain sects refer to their rivals as barking dogs.

    If it's such an exacting scientific language then why did that culture not advance or benefit from it? Where did it go wrong, why is it not popular knowledge that we have to go digging in the ancient past to realize a modern thought?

    The multiverse theory accounts for things just as well if not better. And it means nothing to how we are to enjoy our time here on earth. There's nothing to learn, it's pointless. No action or though has meaning, or purpose. We are as maggots... some crawl, some writh, some squirm, some wiggle, and some dance. I'll stick with dancing.

    Yes. that is the proportion of sectarianism. I never call myself a christian but refer to myself as studious or a disciple. I have no affiliation with dogma of any kind, whether it be political correctness or religion. I rely on expeience and axiomatic reasoning to perceive what is around as an object. I take what is valuable from every thing i investigate. i can rely on the fact that if is obervable there is something we can definitely say about it. Sanskrit is not an idiom but a manufactured language and is a technical tool. Vedic is the idiomatic language that sanskrit comes from.

    Why does culture not solve our difficulties? the science works for those that apply it. For example i learned yogic breath control in order to master every seemingly autonomous functions i have like regulating heart beat and body temperature.

    Such is the uselessness of exploring the theory which is why i don't. However to recognize that fact a theory doesn't speak to our own potential to affect the quality of our experience.

    Mckenna made the statement that if a thing could be explained to the point of being understood it can be believed. If it is belief that we are contending with it is not that the explanation isn't clear.

    To theprodu...why is every novel movement or idea begun by being not of the popular? Do you think Galileo wasted time with such a question? Or the Hippies?

    There's nothing to solve, the world goes up and down. Everything is as it must be, infinite flux. You will do what you must do, and I will do what I must do. Neither of us has a choice.

    Whether you have a choice or not is pretty much irrelevant. Your being does what it does. Choice vs. choicelessness is merely philosophy

    Galileo's knowledge still lives, we don't have to go dusting off old scrolls to see his contributions at work today.

    Hippies didn't begin the counter-culture movement.
    In fact it began in a completely different country.

    Which country?

    Revitalizations of old ideas is a timeless and ongoing theme in history.

    It began in the common longing of mankind. it is why innovations seem to appear indifferent parts of the world at the same time, for example I find myself frequently having industrious ideas and if I don't act on them I soon find someone else did take advantage of the idea because it was shared. This sectarian view of life is stupifying in terms of being able to identify true proportions. What dusty old scrolls? We are listening to these things in our own language.

    The Vedas and all Hindu scriptures are written in Sanskrit. The culture stemming from the Vedas is called Vedic.

    The sanskrit of the 4 original Vedas is of an older type than appears later on, but it is the same language.

    No, choice of effort towards desired aim is the lever of our will. As I say, what occurs for you represents your will to have it be.

    I would agree^...but the fact is is that you can come up with the exact opposite argument of why you don't have choice. That's why I say it's pointless to try to distinguish. That is just philosophy in my opinion
