Guest guest Posted June 30, 2001 Report Share Posted June 30, 2001 JAI GURUDEV Hi all... Ever since it's conception, the brinkster website has been the cause of concerns, misunderstandings and junk mail. I am guruji's disciple for the last 14 years (I am 27 now), though it was in late 1995 when I realized who he really is and officially became his disciple. Since then, I desperately wanted to do something for him. When I came to this group in December last year, I saw people with disbelief, people with small (sometimes silly) questions and people eager to help someone. I saw small chunks of knowledge scattered everywhere. I thought I got a mission for Guruseva. I thought of building a website with all of you which would collect and organize those gems of knowledge and allow you all to guide the world towards Guruji. When I called Shrivastavji, I actually wanted to talk to Guruji but he was not there. I considered Shrivastavji Guruji's representative and took his permission. I could have called again, but I don't know why, I didn't and I am sorry for that. As far as the link on the main website is concerned, I never saw a point in that. Our job, I feel, is to send visitors to the main site and, eventually, to Guruji; not to ask visitors to come from the main site. Remember, the new website was built to work as a filter, as a router, certainly not as the destination. I tried to make myself clear, but, maybe, my attempt was not sincere. Now, as an attempt to correct my mistake, I have disabled the brinkster website. I would call Guruji. If I managed to get his permission, I'll restart it, otherwise I'll destroy it. I am not feeling defeated, I am just feeling mistaken. My job is to do something for Guruji and I'll do it one way or another. Thanks and have a nice day. Sincerely, Ashish Marathe JAI GURUDEV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2001 Report Share Posted June 30, 2001 Jai Gurudev Dear Ashish, I m really very sad with disabling the web site. U being a disciple of Gurudev can ever think of anger. This is not fair. You are really in a hurry to jump to conclusions. I request u to pleas bring it up and let it run. Reg. the issues arising, don't take arvindji's word wrongly, he is giving u right advise. Whatever he is saying is correct. U should not feel dishearted. We all are disciple of Gurudev, and nobody want u to feel sorry for creating the web site. Instead u have done a great job. All these issues can be solved very easily. Just think calmly. If u want we can create a core team of 4-5 members for Sadhak site, who will review the articles before publishing on the Sadhak site. If that group feel that any particular aricle is ok for publishing on the site, u can very well go ahead. But please and please don't take anybodies word otherwise. U r very well aware that Anu is trying her best to talk to Gurudev and I had also talked to Shrivastavaji for this and he had asked me to give a printout, which I will give him in my next visit. Just cool down and think calmly. You have done anything wrong. Jai Gurudev Charanjit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 1, 2001 Report Share Posted July 1, 2001 Now, as an attempt to correct my mistake, I have disabled the brinkster website. I would call Guruji. If I managed to get his permission, I'll restart it, otherwise I'll destroy it. Param Hans Swami Nikhileshwar Bhagwan ki Jai Jai Gurudev Hurting and getting offended and reacting without considering all the aspect of a siuation with a cool mind is an indication that there is an existence of ego which is a big hurdle in the progress of spiritual world. Also Such thing greatly jeopardise flourishing future ideas and free discussion forum where everyone is free to opine. Suggestion/opinion must be taken in right spirit and a leader/controller/sensible responsible person should give a deep thought over the suggestions, though it may be against one's own idea. Such an exercise has been done by the most successfull persons/leaders/organisations and in every field we see that action of such a person(s) comes forward with most compact and perfect things. The whole exercise require coolness (keeping aside egos) and determination to make the mission the most perfect in all aspects. I do the thing which I like and do not alter from that until & unless very close elder of mine or indication from Sat Gurudevji is there. However, I definitely ponder upon the suggestions/criticism because these are things which help in getting the perfectness in my mission. I rather welcome it and one should be obliged for getting criticism in the beginning itself as it the evidence of future success provided the one has the leadership quality. For doing any sort of Gurusewa, one has to pass through the test of Gurudevji and there are hundreds of way from which Gurudevji takes test. He may use a person who is totally against Gurudevji or anyone/anything. Only coolness, determination and qualities of successful persons makes one to pass in the test. Whatever Arvind has suggested, can easily be taken care of and it is the time to give a sincere thought to all the aspect. Good deeds never die and one should not allow his ego even to come in the way. Please do not decide of your own that your attempt is not sincere. Think seriously about new aspects, accept others open suggestion, reframe your ideas and then present before Gurudevji. Besides sincerety and devotion, the most required thing is to do the things in a perfect way after considering all the minutest things which a successful big organisations also cannot afford to ignore.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2001 Report Share Posted July 1, 2001 JAI GURUDEV Dear Charanjit, > I m really very sad with disabling the web site. > This is not fair. > You have done anything wrong. I am very sorry for making you sad. > Reg. the issues arising, don't take arvindji's word wrongly, he is > giving u right advise. Whatever he is saying is correct. U should > not feel dishearted. I am not taking Arvind's words wrongly. He is my senior Gurubhai and I respect him. Ever since the beginning, I failed to explain the whole idea correctly to him. He wanted me to take Guruji's permission, but I failed. He then wanted me to talk to Guruji about the link on the main site, but I failed again because I thought it was unnecessary and did not try properly. I disabled the website just to tell him that I am on his side and agree with him on copyright and sales related issues. Aman's hindi article is about the importance of Diksha, a must know for everyone. Even Guruji has stressed the need for Diksha. I was unaware of the source of that article. Aman had worked for hours on that article and he was very excited about the hindi website. It was purely his idea. But, Arvind wanted me to remove that article, something I would never do and he sounded serious. I didn't want to break Aman's heart, but, at the same time, I wanted to respect Arvind's advise. The only solution to this 'Dharma Sankat' was to shut down the whole site and I did it. And no, I am not an ego-maniac, I am not admitting my defeat, I am not feeling dishearted, instead I am preventing this issue from getting more serious. Respecting your and Arvind's wish, I have restarted the whole website including that controversial hindi article. Now, I'll call Guruji on Monday and take his permission. If he agrees, I'll keep working on a better version, else I would certainly destroy that website. Now it will run with Guruji's full permission and blessings, otherwise it will not. Please note, that I may not be able to call Delhi more than a few times. > If u want we can create a core team of 4-5 members for Sadhak > site, who will review the articles before publishing on the Sadhak site. > If that group feel that any particular aricle is ok for publishing on > the site, u can very well go ahead. I am working on a better version which would allow most of us to review any posted article before it is displayed on the website. It will also end my monopoly and allow everyone to post an article at any time just like this group. That version would look better and would also have a photo gallery. But, now everything depends on Guruji. > U r very well aware that Anu is trying her best to talk to Gurudev > and I had also talked to Shrivastavaji for this and he had asked > me to give a printout, which I will give him in my next visit. I am greatful to both of you. Thanks a lot. > You have done anything wrong. Kindly, forgive me. Thanks and have a nice day.
