An Appeal!

[Guest guest]

Dear and Valued members of the Bhakthi Group:

 

I have an appeal to make at the beginnning of this week.

Like many of you, I have also been saddened by the

unnecessarily sharp exchanges , while discussiong

differences of opinions.

 

In this context, May I appeal to you --one and all--to

adopt nonconfrontational styles in presentation of

our views and agree to disagree instead of carrying

on the exchanges to a point, where we paint ourselves

into corners?

 

The recent exchanges of posts between Sri Kaushik

and Sri Vidyasankar was inspiring in the civil and

scholarly manner in which the debate was conducted.

That was exemplary. We all learned a lot. We would love to

have more of such discussions,which increase our

understanding of the subject matter.

 

We have the blessings of membership, which is unique

in many ways. Let us accentuate the positive and learn from

each other in the spirit of Vedic Parayers that we recite at the

beginning of Paarayanam : SAHANAVAVATHU----

 

Let us pledge to kep this PRIVATE mailing together and

channel the energies of the members towards a better

understanding of our Sampradhaayams.

 

Thank You Sri Mani for bringing us all together from

many parts of this country and abroad .

 

Thank You Sri Ramaswamy for a richly informative

posting on KUlasekhara .

 

Thank You Sri Rengarajan for informative postings on the

hoarines of our Divya Desams.

 

Thank You every one of you for your valued participation.

I am enriched by it very much and hope we can continue to learn from

each other in the days and months ahead.

 

Best Regards,

Sadagopan
