To Write Indian Copyright Laws or KP Book ?

January 14, 2009

Dear Friends,

If the issue is to write a KP book, not Indian Copyright Laws, pl do

start writing and there will be no problem with copyright at all, for

instance it is heard that Shri Bhatt had used the title of Nakshatara

Chintamani for his KP books as he couldn't get permission to use KP.

Some including my elder KP brother at home have thought that he is

very proud of his wisdom without mentioning any single word of KP in

his books. In fact, it is learned not be so and he is a humble man

and a written salute to Guruji KSK (in English) had been found in

his Nakshatara Chintamani (in local language).

Thanks and regards,

Dear Tw ji,

Would appreciate if you can also take some of your precious time to contribute to the wiki. I know that you are prolific writer and have excellent command over language as well as over KP system. Your contribution will be highly useful.

Dear Punit ji,

I'll try to contribute whatever I can to the cause of KP and to its

proper study and practice in KP way, not my own way but nowadays I

can't do much.

Thanks and regards,
