Sorry, but that's an idle dodge. I am not interested either in
learning Sikhism in detail, or in prescribing a reading course in
Vedanta for you. Such is neither a meaningful first step, nor is it
indispensable for further discussion; a participant in a discussion
has to know his *own* position well, but it is not necessary that he
know the countervailing view as well. I'd just like you to give me
specific responses to the points I made against Gobind Singh's claims,
that's all. For one thing, unless there is a proper response, one has
no inclination to study Sikhism because it is not human nature to
study systems of thought that one has been able to successfully find
fault with.
