Question
What is the difference about Mahayana Buddhism, Threvada Buddhism and Advayavada Buddhism? Why is Buddhism seperated into so many "sects"?

Answer
Hello Lee,
There is a lot on the Internet about "difference mahayana theravada". Somebody once said that 'the history of Buddhism is a tale of heresies', which it is in a way. For information about Advayavada Buddhism, please see our website. If you have any specific questions about the latter, please let me know.
Kind regards,
Advayavadananda.
