Jai Gurudev,

Dear Gurubhais,

 

The postings are increasing at a very fast pace. It is really good

and I appreciate this. I would like to put some short suggestions

reg. new web site

 

1. instead of sadhnakishakti we may go for "SadhnaShakti" name

2. Reg. search, it should provide for word searching also, like i was

searching for Tratak but could not find.

3. pdf format is ofcourse best solution

4. a new section can be included for the recent sadhna camps showing

photographs of sadhna camp

 

and for the starting, i think its good to start with small but

complete instead of going for whole site showing "under

construction", i mean we should improve gradually in a solid manner

 

Reg. space there is a site name www.myspace.com, they give 300 MB

space to store, i think we can use that.

Rest continue.

>searching for Tratak but could not find.

Two issues on this -

a. I don't know how it is technically feasible. Almost all of our

terms are actually Hindi/Sanskrit words and they will always have

multiple english spellings (eg. tratak or traatak or trataak or

Trraatak). It might not be possible to group together various

variants. Any comments !

b. The Current search engine searches for individual words and

retrieves pages containing those words. However, it becomes messy if

the "concerned word" is present in global header (which is on top of

every page). eg. if word is "Kali" it gives correct pages containing

details/reference to "Kali". However, if word is "Gurudev", then it

gives all the pages, as all the pages have "about Gurudev" in the

header section. Any technical solution to this issue?? Frames might

become a bit messy, but will solve this issue. There are many, many

web developers on this forum. Any solution?

 

While you are about it (i.e. thinking about all this), can people do

a search in their favorite web search engine/directory/portal

(altavista,google etc.) for words like Mantra Tantra Yantra

Siddhashram etc. and tell if their search engine doesn't list our

website www.siddhashram.org We can produce a list of such sites and

then, we can ask Gurudham to list on those search

engines/directories/portal etc.

Hello Charanjit,

Yes. I haven't yet started working on the search engine, but would

remember your comment.

> 3. pdf format is ofcourse best solution

 

Pdf is not allowed at Brinkster. Also, to create a pdf file, we need

Adobe Acrobat, which is a commercial product and has a cost.

Good idea! This is a vital part. Why don't you take charge of the

photo section.

Myspace.com is an online file storage service, not a web hosting

service. We can't host our site there. I chose Brinkster because it

supports all the technologies I need for this project.

 

Keep it up...

Jai Gurudev.

Alright. Let everyone post message on this discussion list. On a

rotation basis, members from the core group will scan the list, and

upload the website.

 

I think that we sud stick with 30 MB for the time being. We have only

59 members in the list currently, and there are only 3-4 active

members.

The mandate of this NEW site is to have personal articles from

Sadhaks (Not a reprint of the "official" articles from mag/books).

30 MB sud suffice for this type of content and activity.

 

If u are writing a new search engine, then it will be worthwhile to

design/develop it keeping the www.siddhashram.org in mind. Currently

www.siddhashram.org is using picosearch as search engine, and we can,

probably, putin your search engine later in www.siddhashram.org as it

will be a tailor made-customised-betterfeatures solution

Apart from other stuff, the search engine sud be able to filter out

noise words, have a updateable word groupings, and sud be able to

produce stats of words scanned etc. sud be fast and able to handle

thousands of pages. might be able to search in a category of pages

(eg. only sadhana related pages). plus of course any more goodies

that u can think of!

Regarding this i would like to put up that since i m very new to

Siddhashram Parivar i have yet not got any chance to participate in

any camp. If in near future i got a chance, i will certainly come up.

If any scanning part is to be looked after, I will be happy to do

that.
