Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Dear Sir, Pranams. I request you kindly to forward the following message to all members of our group for their benefit. With regards, K S Venkataraman ----------------------------- Dear Sir, Pranams. It is a matter of general acceptance that the Vedas form the foundation of sanatana religion now called Hinduism. The Vedas are universal. The Nalayira Divya Prabandam and Thevaram are regarded by Vaishnavas and Saivas respectively as the Vedas in Tamil. Irrespective of the subdivisions, the tenets of the Vedas serve as the unifying bond of our Sanatana religion. There is an urgent need for providing knowledge of our Vedic Heritage, Devotional Literature and allied areas of knowledge in English because a substantial section of our people, especially youngsters, are able to understand these things better in English. This trend is likely to grow further in future. Unless we provide an instrument of communication in English for the specific purpose, the vital linkage may be broken very soon. Apart from this, there is one more important consideration. The Vedas are universal. Even the Plant Kingdom has a right to be benefited by it. It is our duty to share what we have inherited with all the peoples of the world. So presenting them in English becomes a moral obligation to us. There are of course some general religious books and magazines in English. Not all of them do justice to the universality of the Vedic spirit. Trying to live within a shell created for us, however comfortable it may be, is not adequate. It is not becoming of one who has inherited the Vedic treasure by virtue of his birth. But to provide a concerted effort in this direction, providing coverage to all the subdivisions - highlighting the unifying aspects of all but without spoiling particular sampradayas - an international monthly magazine in English by name 'Nitya Kalyan' has been launched. The first issue of the magazine was released by Pujyasri Jagadguru Sri Jayendra Sarasvati Swamigal of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetamm on Vijayadasami Day (23-10-04) at Madurai. Those interested in this mission may contact venkataramanks (AT) nityakalyan (DOT) com for further information. I request you kindly to forward this message for the benefit of all members of our group. They are also welcome to join nityakalyan for better interaction with the like minded persons.
