FROM THE MODERATOR

 

GITA TALK GROUP GUIDELINES:

The Purpose of the group is to help Sadhakas clarify their doubts

related to Gitaji shlokas. To ensure that both the questions and the

responses are focused, pointed and brief, the guidelines for Gita-

Talk discussions are being modified and are being sent to you.

 

The following are the guidelines for Gita-Talk discussions.

 

GUIDELINES FOR POSTING A QUESTION:

 

1. The group is focused on the Holy Gitaji and clarifying any

doubts, therefore only questions that pertain to Gitaji will be

posted in the future.

 

2. Please ask only one question at a time.

 

3. It is compulsory to refer to Gitaji shloka at least once in the

question.

 

4. Please be specific with the question, relating the practical

difficulties being faced by the Sadhak. Specifics around, where is

the sadhak facing obstacles in his spiritual journey, in the

teachings of Gitaji, in principles laid down by Swamiji or other

Mahatamas are highly recommended to be included.

 

5. General questions will not be considered for future posting.

e.g. " suicide " " solving world hunger " etc.
