Guest guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Namaste Please, Please me from Jyotish_Remeries. with immediate effect. Its really depressing Thanks Raneetha Bhaskar <rajiventerprises wrote: Bejan Daruwala is very well known. So is Linda Goodman.So is Bin laden. So is Dawood Ibrahim. So is george Bush. So is Musharraf. So are, so many. Being Well known would not be the criteria for being good always in any particular field. Motilal Banarsidas is very money minded. They do not even mention their prices on the books they sell. They keep on upgrading the prices on the weight of demand of any particular title, is my experience. This is known to me because I have many of their books on spirituality. A Publisher who is money minded would also search for authors who are cheap. They would compromise , to make their production costs low. Now your mail has not given the actual purport of the particular context which we require, where the bad nature of women has been given, so as to assess the full meaningful presentation where this distatsteful issue has been cited. I am sure those who have the Gita press " Shiv Puarana " would be able to give a better view, in a more positive vein, rather than what has been displayed to us. rgrds/Bhaskar. , Amitabh Shastri wrote: > > I have not participated into this unusual discussion so far.
