Guest guest Posted April 11, 2003 Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 Dear Sushmitaji, I completely understand where you come from in your stance on "If you want to respect me, truly respect me rather than just showing your respect superficially". In fact, I believe in the same. I cannot stand any backstabbers either. And please do not think for one second that this forum has any rule to address others in a certain way. This is a very flexible forum just meant for spreading the vedic sciences esp. vedic astrology. Nobody is here to judge anybody. What I write reflects my way of thinking, same is the case with you and everybody else. This group is solely meant for learning and sharing what one learnt. The best part of this forum is that we have learned Gurujis amongst us who are always available to correct us and help us in learning further. So welcome to our little but lovely world of Jyotish!
