Thank you very much for the suggestion. I have the deepest respect (and affection) for Nisargadatta and consider him one the big influences in my life, perhaps second in my heart only to Maharishi and Guru Dev. Coming upon him (here, of course, on FFL) only a few years after I had re-begun meditation and puja after a lengthy hiatus I was overwhelmed with gratitude for his simple elucidation of atma-vichara. It's put everything I ever learned from Maharishi into play. **
