Our second issue of Nectar focuses on a natural synthesis of universal and nondual themes, a stance inherent in our publication which brought comments and questions from scholarly circles. How can a journal call itself universal yet profess the nondual way? Philosophies that adhere to both dualistic forms of worship and qualified nondualistic pathways can claim to be universal in nature too. This of course is true, needing little mention, but two things of import emerged from this question and the dialogue that ensued. First, the SRV view particularly emphasizes the nondual approach over concentration upon or fascination with the many and does so while insisting that the essence of oneness pervades all approaches. Second, by the term nondual or advaita, we mean the principle of inherent oneness that permeates all of existence by way of direct experience, neither limited to the path of monism or even restricted to the way of Advaita as a philosophy of dialectics alone.
