Guest guest Posted October 16, 2003 Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 Namaste: Let us welcome Sri Ashwin Kansagra, a new member to the list. We can look forward to his active participation in the list discussions with his thoughtful insights and questions. We strongly encourage Sri Ashwin and other new members to fully engage in the discussions by asking any question including the questions such as "Who are We ?, Why are We here?, What is the purpose of Life?"
