>Literally everyone but you has agreed that Robinson is highly obtuse while failing to find any proper contradictions
I've spoken with other anons before who found it to be a solid paper. It's only the braindead ESLfag who argues against it, in my experience.

>a certain ineffable quality evoked by some young women
By some young women you mean the pretty ones. Forget your "ineffable qualities" and "elan vital" for christ's sake. It's a simple matter to be carefree when you have it the easiest of any demographic bar none. It's not that deep.

>Madhva’s attempts to locate his controversial views in the canonical Vedanta texts often proved difficult. He is perhaps most famous for his idiosyncratic rendering of the Chandogya Upanisad’s statement tat tvam asi or “you (the atman) are that (brahman).” By carrying over the ‘a’ from the preceding word, Madhva rendered the phrase atat tvam asi or “you are not that.”

In any case its just proving my point that you are forced to keep falling back upon appeal to authority fallacies instead of being able to give a real argument or any example like a citation of a passage

>The Pali Canon

In early Buddhist literature there is no reference to Brahman (neuter) as absolute, but only to Brahmā (masculine) the creator God. The principle of absolute consciousness is however mentioned in a debate between the Buddha and Brahmā (Majjhima Nikaya I.329 - Sutta, No. 49) The Buddha does not defeat this view by polemics but by supernatural powers.
