Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Dear Devotee Members, I think it is a shame for us to in-fight in the name of our God. How can we talk about issues like religious conversion or eradication of poverty when we fight about our own Gods and their supremacy??? I think the reason for Hinduism's suffering in recent decades is due to this division among us, not because of other religions or money pouring from outside. Why blame others for the lack of our unity? Anyway, I request all of you to take a minute and think about what we are doing in the name of God! Please respect others and their views. Let us stop wasting our time on proving whose is the supreme God. (I am sure that discussion will not reach anywhere except every one calling each other bad names) So, let us move on to Bhakti. Om Namo Narayanaya: Krishna, Guruvayoorappa! Amme Narayana: Sunil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Dear Sunilji and Guruvayur group's Members, It is indeed a great fortune that I came to know about this forum. I hope we all agree that the discussion was in a spirit of humour and there was no ill intention between any of us as finally each and every one of us are brothers and sisters on the basis of having the ONE Father who is addressed by innumerable names.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 I am extremely glad that Shri Sunil brought back the focus to bhakti and thank you for all the supporting postings. To be very honest, as a new member of the group I was quite baffled by some of the recent postings and was even wondering if I reached a wrong forum. I was struggling to connect why WE are wasting time on such thoughts. I agree with KVG that 'investigative' spirituality - I liked that term:) - be the focus of those who are trying to quench the intellecual appetite if they care; and here, let us turn to the 'applied' aspects of what we learn from Gita and other valuable scriptures our forefathers left for us. Let us cleanse our thoughts in the extreme Krishna Bhakti rasam and expend our energies only on thoughts that would be positive for our own minds and the humanity.
