Namaste Sri Atma

 

To generalize is to express Tamas. Ego brings authoritarians and Maturity

brings fairness. I have expressed my views, let Sri Raj take his call.

 

Thanks and Regards

Bharat

Bharatji

 

It was an observation rather than a generalisation. And in the mode

of Tamas, there is very little expression/attempt to understand

ongoings - but rather more lethargy and mental inactivity.

 

Generalising more aptly falls into the category of Rajas, should you

wish to correlate behvioural aspects with the modes of nature.

 

Thanks.

Sri bharatji and Sri atmagnaniji,

 

I request you both to please stop

this thread here, and not write any

further.Both have had their say, and

wish you both to respectfully not prolong

this for mutual goodness.

 

Shubchintak,

Bhaskar.

Dear Members,

 

As I have always noticed and mentioned regularly

that the group was been Moderated always, it was

never without a Father, has been now declared

by Shri Raj Rao himself today.

Those who were keen members, and old ones, have

not remembered that twice in the past, when I had

altercation with a unruly member before, Sri Rao

has entered and given a mild rebuke to both of us.

If You notice 3-4 days back too some mails with

abuse were also deleted from the List.

 

It was his Grace and liberty given to us, that

has been misused. The outsiders we can understand,

the fake ids we can understand, if they create

disruptions here, but the regular members should

stop this habit of making a dig at each other

and passing uncalled for remarks. We should

concentrate only on astrological mails, and

whenever there is a position of no conclusion

or arguments turning heated, the thread should

be ended with consensus. That way, at least

the existing members would remain free from

moderation ,while the outsiders who cause

disturbances may be taken care of by stricter

discipline from the Moderator.

 

Hope we never talk personal to/about the members,

which may hurt someone,or give any member the reason

to do so, apart from astrological comments.

 

Best wishes on the regained status of the Forum,

 

Bhaskar.

Dear Mr. Rao,

 

this is the 1st time I am seeing a message from U as I am new here just a

month plus but started posting on 24/7 THE key WORD USED BY A GANG TO ABUSE

me as a 24x7 free chart reading astrologer in mails in every forum even

here which is surely hurting them, u need not go far behind just this week

alone a few are there here. i have no commercial interest than give back to

astrology what little I got to the best of my ability.

 

i did a lot of FREE readings when I had time before the construction at home

started AND RIGHT NOW HAVE done lesser readings on and off during intervals

when at home, and have complimented next generation astrologers taking their

share in reading too in JR, anyone reading horoscopes I had complimented

them but just one gang alone distracts peace all over the forums and I am

sure u would have seen that as well by now

 

 

I complimented gen next as the same heat lead to many good members,

astrologers leaving and I was alone reading charts am happy many new ones

like Anup, Astro Nikit, , Amitabh shastty etc took over so my

need is lesser now-whcih proves my critics wrong I am not dominating the

groups but when others r there I don't mind them also to do read the same

cases or new ones on their own or critised anyones readings as the gang

does.

 

about gang's role

 

they give a list of options in readings and if they don't match their

querents case and they ask cross checking or counter questions the gang

starts abusing them instead of clarifying. AND MOVING FURTHER.

 

and this gang also suggested they be allowed to merge their group with this

one and take over moderation, I HOPE this is not the case NOW AND U R STILL

IN CHARGE OF THE GROUP.

 

but other new members are doing a great job. when I said this also I was

abused by the gang

 

whenever time permits I will read charts than go into discussions till Dec

this yr at least.

 

AND ANY TECHNICAL DISCUSSION IF I CAN SPARE TIME WILL HELP DO MY PART.

 

A GREAT MOVE so lets hope peace and astrology prevail

 

Best wishes

What you have written will not work and for good health should not

work. It will lead to all forms of critique either dying altogether or

becoming infirm to a point where the critic would be seen to be

unsure. If you or me tomorrow said something astrologically that went

wholly against what is generally accepted, it would in normal

circumstances get some response resembling " Rubbish! " . Being

subjective, it will open a debate *BUT* I could easily mistake that

remark to be a personal attack. If someone repetitively comes up with

foolish statements, etc., it is natural for you to think of and call

him a fool. If someone took away that right from you or me, it is

authoritarian, nothing less.

 

It is quite amazing to see the no. of people here who want where they

are be 'moderated' by whips. No wonder there are some people (my

father is an example) who said that the period of Emergency in India

was actually a good time... catch me endorsing that!!

// What you have written will not work //

 

It will work with all good people, but with

about 4 members here, it would not work, since

they have nothing astrological to talk about

and only survive and thrive on commenting

on what others say,and passing sneers at others.

 

Bhaskar.

Dear all,

 

We are having lot many mails on self expositions,

and under rating of the others in the line of

astrology.

I request all to please concentrate and give long

lectures and essays on astrological factors, and

not criticize others or try to push themselves up.

One can only come up in Life, due to ones own

merit and hardwork, and not by fooling or

hoodwinking people, or by stepping over others of

his clan, and trying to move forward..

 

Let us talk astrology and nothing else.

Let us not give 24 x 7 predictions in all Forums,

which bear no resemblance to truth, but let us

give only a few numbers everyday ,which should

be substantiated by Logical evidence and analysis.

Because this is what Forums are for.

Those who say that they have no commercial interest

in astrology, evidence can be given, as to having

taken Fees from those who were talked of in

a deplorable manner, after the money had

been pocketed. Therefore let us not behave like

saints when we are not.

 

They are also expected not to look too much in

simple suggestions made to the Moderator, to

bring in more members and increase the strength

if few leave, which should not be construed as

something sinister.

 

Also you are dealing with a one man army,

and not a gang. And no one has time here to

take the seat of 2 x 7 astrologers, therefore no

need to get scared please. My bread and butter

comes from hard work and labour and not by fooling

people.

 

I do not solicit any reply from those who live

in Bhrama-delusions, and always live in fear,

that someone is out to unsurp their seat. I

do not think any gang or any member of any gang is

interested in the seat occupied by such

people.

 

Bhaskar.

That was not a personal comment.

But now it will become so.

 

You are one of those members who

never talks astrology but always

out to create trouble

and disrupt the

proceedings by remarking unnecessary

statements on others

posts, uninvited,

 

I wished your name to be understood,

but am sorry I had to mention this.

 

You would be watched from now on for

whatever you utter.The other 3 I shall

name when they behave your way.

 

Bhaskar.
