Month of May Discussion Topic - Jnana and Bhakti

[Guest guest]

Namaste:

 

First let me congratulate both Sri Dennis and Sri Sadananda for

spearheading the month long discussion on "Fate and free will." The

discussions were to a larger extent focusing and very educative and

provided "everything that we need to know but afraid to ask" about

our fate and free will.

 

The list is very fortunate that the next month discussion will be

jointly moderated by Sri Gummuluru and Sri Sunder. ProfVK has

indicated in his email message that it is his favorite topic (also it

should be a topic of great interest to most of the members of the

list). The list by organizing the month long discussions is also able

to guide the members to focus their thoughts to uplift their spirit

and steer their life in the right direction. These topic oriented

discussions are also part of a learning process and the list can use

to improve its service the most productive way. May I request

Murthigaru and Sunderji to spell out their expectations and guidance

to the members so that we can all improve. Most importantly, when

these discussions are over, the month long discussions saved in the

archive will become permanent reference library for everyone.

 

Looking forward to the opportunity to learn Jnana and Bhakti,

 

 

Warmest regards,

 

Ram Chandran

Note: I am going for a month-long trip to India early next week and

will be returning back to USA on first of June. I am likely to be

travelling between places in India and may not be able to get access

to the Internet during that time.

namaste.

 

I do not know how competent I am to take up this task, but

I am in the process of preparing a lead-article on this topic

which I will be posting on May 1. I look forward to the discussions

and do hope that the entire process of discussions will be a good

learning process for all.

Gummuluru Murthy
