I thought you would enjoy that!

But just for grins try rereading "The One and the Many." there James covers
a much wider spectrum of "monism's" than in "Monistic Idealism" or "Hegel
and his Methods" Where he says:

"The regular mystical way of attaining the vision of the One is by ascetic
training, fundamentally the same in all religious systems. But this
ineffable kind of Oneness is not strictly philosophical, for philosophy is
essentially talkative and explicit, so I must pass it by."

Me too!

Some time ago I went to your university site but I didn't find it. Then I
said, "What the hell, why bother, it's bound to be more of the same stuff,
in line with what you post here."
