Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Share Posted June 26, 2001 Jai Gurudev. Warning: contents of this message might be offensive. I am sorry if contents of this message offends someone. Please take them in the right spirit. I don't want to criticise or stop any good work being done by others. I think that most of the people on the web prefer to read in english. Very few people like to read in Hindi. Moroever, most of the people who are interested in reading in Hindi will basically be reading from India. They can very well purchase Mantra Tantra Yantra Vigyan hindi magazine and read it itself. The cost of the magazine is Eighteen rupees only. The cost of half an hour internet session in an internet- cafe is at least twice that amount!!! So, at this point, i dont think that there is much sense in devoting time and energy and making a full-fledged hindi website. There is a whole treasure of information on the actual magazine. The duty of the website sud be to direct all interested people to buy and read the actual magazine. It will make sense to write and putup a few introductory articles in Hindi about Gurudev, Siddhashram, Sadhanas, techniques of Mantra chanting, traatak etc. However, the basic duty of the website sud be to direct/lead people into actually buying and reading the magazine. We surely do not want to scan the entire hindi magazine/book etc. and put it on the internet!! This will be against copyright, and moroever, will be unethical. Moroever, a selection of articles on sadhanas etc. are already available on the main website www.siddhashram.org I recently looked into the Sadhana section, and it now has articles covering all the Mahavidyas and other major deities, etc. Apart from Hindi, it will make sense in having such intro. articles in other main languages like Bengali, Tamil, Telugu etc. So far, these people have been cutoff from this golden treasure due to language gap. I am terribly sorry if my views have offended some people. I think that instead of typing/scanning the hindi pages, a better idea cud be to translate some good articles/Gurudev's pravachans from old issues , and put them up. This will enable non-hindi people to also benefit from the wealth which is currently available only to hindi- speakers. Again, probably i sud not be saying things like this and putting a spanner in the works, when I myself have not submitted even a single article ! I probably aint eligible for this and havent earned the right to comment on good work being done by other people, as i havent submitted anything myself. It is just that i feel that more productive usage can be made of this time & effort. Sorry again. Yes, Amitji, this shivashakti site seems to be a good site. Though , i will actually doubt the authenticity of the actual mantras and other details. Some of his mantras about Bhuvaneshwari seems to be incorrect. I have got another personal gripe against the controller of this site. For the past 1 year, I have been sending him many emails to add www.siddhashram.org in his link section. He has got a good link section covering some good hinduism sites. He seems to be keen on adding even the tantric_pornography sites, but has not added our website. So, I have a personal peeve against this site! Why doesnt he add our site ? On a personal basis, i am boycotting this site! Or, does someone want to join me in sending him emails to add www.siddhashram.org in the list of links.

Since the site - shivshakti has been ignoring your request for the last year, I opine that we should not mail him for linking with our site. My suggestion: - not to translate/post any sadhana procedure on the developing site, as the main site contains all the essential/common sadhanas and that is authentic and more particularly doing sadhana from reading that site has the blessing from Gurudevji as it is directly given by them - I agree with Arvind's idea that we should translate/post Sat Gurudevjis pravachan from old magazines or cassattes and many more aspects of Sat Gurudev's life so that every one can feel the Greatest Divya Swarup of Sat Gurudevji' Param Hans Swami Nikhileshwar Bhagwan ki Jai Your use of is subject to the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
