Debate

[Guest guest]

Friends:

Just to add my two cents worth, I feel that for a debate to have any

meaning, the following should be true:

1. The people debating should be equals in background.

2. The rules of debate should be clear.

3. There should be a referee who has no personal agenda in the outcome

of the debate.

4. Both parties debating should be only interested in arriving at

the truth.

If any or all of this in not true, it may only be bickering, and

leads to wasting valuable time of hundreds of people who are members

of the list hoping to uplift themseves.

Lastly, today is ekAdashi, and I am sure that most of us are trying

to observe the vrata. If so, let us try to do " upavaasa " , that is

live at an elivated level, spiritually speaking.

Namskara..
