Be objective in your response

[Guest guest]

The position as the moderator is an unenviable one and Sunil have

been managing admirably well and I agree with him cent percent that

personal differences should not be brought up in the group mail.

 

At the same time it is also not wise for the members to take the remarks

personally. If one presents a view it is quite permissible for others to agree

or contradict. The issue must be viewed objectively and not subjectively. When I

write contradicting what you have said, for instance it is not against you in

person but only against what you

have written. If you cannot agree which, I don't expect you to, anyway

we agree to disagree. That is all.

 

No one can change another's view point by arguing and each one is entitled for

his opinion. Bhinnaruchirhi lokah. In fact if we learn how to approach any

problem objectively there will not be any misunderstanding or it will be between

two persons. Especially in a group like this dedicated to the devotion of the

Lord Guruvayurappan, there should be no bone of contention between the members

regarding their faith or mode of worship or even their concept of devotion and

the divine form of worship.

 

Bhakthi is same thing private between the devotee and the Lord and there is no

right or wrong way of doing it. If one's devotion

and knowledge of the Lord and His glory is defective only the Lord

can put it right and no man has any right to do so. So in future I

request all the members to be moderate in their observations and if

you have a different view from the one expressed by another member

just present it and leave it at that It is not to convince the one

whose view you oppose but to presnt differnet views to others so that

they can adopt whichever they like.

 

I hope that none will mistake me for writing rhis but I am doing so as a mother

would, who wishe the welfare of her children and I am in a position to do so. I

think, considering my age.
