There has not been much discussion on the possible roles of the group excpet

from the regular participants in the discussion. However, as I understand the

preliminary scope is to establish an organisation first and carry over the CD

project through this inc. . Some other member can explain this .

 

I have a thought about Thondar Kuzhaam's sustenance as an organisation in the

long run. One day or other one by one We may all go and the torch serving the

causes of srivaishnavism should be carried over for ever. The only way we can

ensure is to establish this forum in a secured manner. Security in moderen

society is defined in terms of the monetary position. I propose that all the

members of this group may automatically get registered "themselves" as a member

of thondar kuzhaam also. In addition, there are so many members who want to

contribute for this group in some way as a return for the knowledge they gain,

and they can also do so, if the thondar kuzhaam has a nominal membership fee of

US $ 10 per member per month for active member and US $ 5 for dialogue

partners who may not be willing to join the kuzhaam but be a member of the

E-mail group, ( these fees can be subsidized for an annual basis), and for

students and house wives membership should be free,if two or three or more

members are from the same family they pay only one fee of US $ 10 or US $ 5 or

annual fee, and members from India pay Rs. 10 per month to the organisation.

I feel this is OK. This will formalize the donations as such and help the

organization in the long run. The fee for those in India is too small i

think. Rs.10 has no value even in India. It could be atleast Rs.30. just a

thought..

The immediate need is to arrange for the material cost for the CD's (I am sure

Dr. Sadagopan will write his estimates as to how many CD's we intend to make in

the first publication , their estimates on material cost etc.). The remaining

The CD project's objective is to popularize the thamizh maRai and spread

the significance of our 108 dhivya dhEsams. we can't think of any profits

from that, i feel. If somebody has worked out detailed commercial aspects

of it and have elaborate plans of selling it, it may probably have. I don't

know. Hence this membership fees becomes even more important not only for

the sustenance but for funding other projects that would be taken up under

the SVTK.

proceedings after meeting the CD project , from such member ship fees may be

divided in "proportions" to all the causes that has been suggested by members

including subsidising the "thondar madal" a monthly journal proposed from

don't we want to have the srivaishNavam or something connected to it

somewhere in the name of the magazine?..

non-controversial articles. Mr. Krish's proposals are welcome. We have been a

team so far and I hope we should continue to do so. I have had some discussions

with some members on this membership fee. Nothing more can be a good start

for the kuzhaam than an unanimous reply from everyone for acceptance of a

membership and its fee.

Please note that this mebership fee is only a suggestion from myself and a few

others as of now. The opinions of each members are welcome.

May I request "every member " to reply one way or other to Mr. Parthasarathy

Dileepan, ASAP their opinion on the name, membership fee and possible future

scope etc., as he has to file the inc. very soon.

Every one of us should voice our opinion in this respect. Since Mr. PD

to come to some kinda settlement and proceed from thereon. This can even be

a personal mail to PD.

end of this week? Please DO Cooperate.
