Another piece of knowledge!

Just a few months ago, I learnt from Cho2! that not all Indians (Hindus) believe that we all are God!
Yep – apparently there are two schools of thought, namely Advaita (the ppl who believe that we are all God!) and the Dvaita’s who
believe that God is separate from the rest of the souls. Very interesting stuff indeed – for I had never heard of this before!
And today D showed me a third point of view – the Vishishtadvaita – the folks who believe that God alone exists, but admits plurality!
I must admit that I did not completely understand their point of view – but the truth is that there are a bunch of people – in different flavors - who do not believe that All is God.
Nice.
