Just a quick comment on the sourcing: The Essential Vedanta. Bloomington: World Wisdom. pg. 61. and The Blackwell Companion to Hinduism. Malden: Blackwell. pg. 273-4. do not support the material. Only the material from Buddhist Thought is relevant, but still this sentence has problems of WP:TONE and WP:SYNTH. However, I feel that including the opinion of one author in lede is WP:UNDUE.
