=========================

With reference to the few of the recent mails in our mAlOlan net,

I interfere as a moderator and suggest the following points specifically.

This is merely with the intention to improve

the quality of discussions reg. ubhaya-VEdAnta and nothing else.

There is no personal criticism meant here.

 

There may be apArthams in many lists, which are moderated

by someone merely based on pride and prejudice. When such things

needs to be clarified in mAlolan net based on our pUrvAchArya's tiruvuLLam,

then the members of mAlOlan net are welcome to do so and they

can feel free to write correct sidhdAntam with pramANams. But if the

apArtham mail has appeared only in some other list(s) (irrespective of

whether the author of that mail is a member of mAlOlan net or not) and

if the mail has not appeared in mAlOlan net, then there is no need to

mention the name of that author of that mail and there is no need to

forward that entire mail in malolan net in rejoinder/critique. Merely,

the summary or citation(s) from the apArthams of the other list(s) mail

can be presented as pUrva-paksham or samSayam (whichever is applicable)

and based on our pUrvAchArya+IBk-s tiruvuLLam and pramANams, the sidhdAntam

can be written in mAlOlan net if a member wishes.

 

If the apArtham has appeared in mAlOlan net itself from a member of

MAlOlan net itself, then, in the rejoinder in mAlolan net, if the name of

the author of apArtham mail is mentioned, it does not matter. Again,

this is left to the member's wish who wants to write the rejoinder.

 

Writing critiques on books and statements of scholars by scholars is

different from writing critiques on mails from people who write merely

based on some anumAnam(s) that too in certain list(s) where pride and

prejudice is considered above everything.

 

This is in the context of critiques on other mails only and does not

cover the critiques on moderation policies of individuals of some

other list(s). Also, I do not point out any individual or group

or list or anything of that sort. This is a general note.

 

Critiques on this mail are welcome. Let us have the discussions

in mAlOlan net at least based on our pUrvAchArya's tiruvuLLam and

pramANams and pramANAnuguNa-tarkam. In summary, for a proper model

for reply/critique/rejoinder, one may refer to any reply from

scholars who write with pramANa balam and appropriate yukti-balam

in the archives of mAlOlan net.

 

Thanks & Regards
