I do not understand the reasoning for putting the three meditation-guidance audios (#18, #19, #20) at "9 Feb 1973 to 14 Apr 1973". The usual format for those kind of meditation-guidances is to be given on some of the same days as when the lectures are. Why is it possible that these specific three would be in an altogether different, earlier camp? A camp where, btw., there are already two separate meditation-guidance audios. --[[User:Sugit|Sugit]] ([[User talk:Sugit|talk]]) 12:03, 22 August 2015 (UTC) | I do not understand the reasoning for putting the three meditation-guidance audios (#18, #19, #20) at "9 Feb 1973 to 14 Apr 1973".

I do not understand the reasoning for putting the three meditation-guidance audios (#18, #19, #20) at "9 Feb 1973 to 14 Apr 1973". The usual format for those kind of meditation-guidances is to be given on some of the same days as when the lectures are. Why is it possible that these specific three would be in an altogether different, earlier camp? A camp where, btw., there are already two separate meditation-guidance audios. --Sugit (talk) 12:03, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
Paragraphs two to four in "Remarks" attempt to deal with this. Basically, it is proposed that a) we don't know at which camp the SS meditation guidance talks were given, so the date range includes the two camps. And b) the meditation-guidance talks for Alchemy were given at Anandhshila, per Alchemy's Appendix, so it in fact even seems more likely that SS's analogous talks were likewise. There are nine hours of such talks in English at Anandshila and even with SS and Sapt Dwar's five such talks combined, they would only come to about two and a half hours. And no English med-guidance talks at Mt Abu, so why should there be any in Hindi? It actually seems almost compelling to me to apply the parallelism with Alchemy and make it so but we don't know, so both camps are left as a possibility for SS.
The question of why it is all so messy and unclear is of course unanswered, but it is messy and unclear no matter how you cut it. Perhaps once the decision to throw all the English Anandshila med-guidance talks into an Appendix in Alchemy is made, any disposition of the analogous Hindi talks will be messy. -- doofus-9 (talk) 16:22, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
