Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Namaste all, I'm very pleased to announce Sri Dennis Waite as the Advaitin list's Chief Moderator for the year 2007, beginning January 1st. Many of you know Dennis as the editor of www.advaita.org.uk, the vastly popular website on Advaita Vedanta. He is also the author of several related books, including THE BOOK OF ONE: THE SPIRITUAL PATH OF ADVAITA (O Books, 2004); AN ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO SANSKRIT FOR SPIRITUAL SEEKERS (Black & White, 2005); BACK TO THE TRUTH: 5000 YEARS OF ADVAITA (O Books, 2007); and HOW TO MEET YOURSELF (AND FIND TRUE HAPPINESS) (O Books, 2007). Sri Dennis is an indefatigable researcher. He has put together a massive storehouse of up-to-date information on a range of Indic spiritual paths, from orthodox Advaita Vedanta to the recent, Westernized satsang-style approaches. You simply can't find all this information anywhere else. Dennis is also a keen, insightful observer and informed proponent of Shankaracharyan Advaita Vedanta. His forthcoming ENLIGHTENMENT: NO QUICK FIX (THE SATSANG FALLACY) isn't due until 2008, but it is already creating a buzz in some spiritual circles. But not as many people know that Dennis is a long-time member of the various Advaita online forums. A member of ADVAITA-L as early as 1996, he became a charter member of our own "Advaitin" list at its inception. His contributions always demonstrate the clear, quiet voice of humility, as well as good sense and a touch of humor. I think he will make an excellent Chief Moderator! Please join me in welcoming Sri Dennis! Pranaams to all Advaitins, --Greg Goode (outgoing Chief Moderator, 2006) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 PraNams to everybody. Greg provided a beautiful introduction to our new Chief Moderator Sri Dennis Waite. I just want to add a personal note. I met Dennis for the first time officially in this advaitin list. That acquaintance lead to personal contact and I had the good fortune to visit him and his wife at his house in UK. It was indeed a beautiful experience. During that trip I also met V.P Chandran with whom I had extensive discussions on this list, which he renewed during our personal meeting in London. Because of the advaitin list, I met several other members including Prof. VK, Sri Subbu, etc. I am fortunate to be a member of such an elated group Hari Om!

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Thank you Goode-ji for that wonderful introduction on our new chief moderator , Sri Dennis-ji ! Goode -ji , although you were not 'vocal' in the group but we really appreciated the 'silent' way in which you guided the group - you were never overly 'invasive ' and were quite liberal in your approach by allowing 'freedom of speech' and 'expression' as much as possible - for that , we want to thank you! Membership has also crossed the 1500 mark in the one year you have been the chief moderator ! Being a philosophical counselor , Greg-ji was more of a listener in this forum but let me assure you that even 'creative listening' is an art - That is the way of the Buddha ! Gregji is too humble to mention but he has authored a book called 'Non-dualism and Western Philosophers' ! Here is what our incoming moderator Dennisji HAS TO SAY ABOUT THE OUTGOING MODERATOR GOODEJI ! "He has the ability to see to the heart of a problem and present insightful analyses and solutions in a concise and perspicuous manner. He does this always in a patient, compassionate and often humorous way so as to provide maximum benefit with minimum hassle. Greg's a truly enlightened counsellor." �Dennis Waite, Dorset County, U.K. Author, The Book of One and editor of The Spiritual Path of Advaita portal. Now , Dennis-ji ! Welcome Aboard ! Congratulations ! We have 'great expectations' from you . Hope many of the new comers to Advaita can benefit from your Teachings .... Best wishes advaitin, "Greg Goode" <goode wrote: > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Profvi-ji mentioned there will be a focus on Advaita for the novice in the coming year, and I look forward to hearing how this will be approached.
