"Swami Atmajnanananda, for example, has gone through the first edition with the proverbial "fine-toothed comb" and published his criticisms in a journal article (but only, I might add, after corresponding with me for almost a year)." () "A close reading of () article and the present edition will reveal where I agree with Atmajnanananda and where I still disagree. I am deeply grateful to Swamiji for his intellectual honesty, for his religious integrity, and, most of all, for his humane civility." 〕 ==External links== *(Vedanta Center of Greater Washington, DC website ) *( Swami Atmajnanananda (English) Lecture, Boston ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Swami Atmajnanananda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
