Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 > PICTURE: Amazing Shastra praman from Sri Narada Purana with CLEAR information on > Planetary Gemology > > sacred-objects/ <---SVAGATAM!!! Dear Richard I have just joined the forum and visited your interesting website on gems - some lovely creations no doubt. As regards the quote from Narada Purana, I would just like to point out that the quote on your frontpage was first compiled by international gem specialist Swee Chan on her Website http://www.brihaspati.net/gemstones.htm, where you will find a copyright notice. It would have been appropriate to at least quote the source or acknowledge the compiler of the picture you posted verbatum, otherwise its tantamount to plagiarism and lack of respect for other's research. I hope this is clear. All the Best Bipin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hi Bipin, Thanks for pointing out the source. We had received the quote in an email with no reference. Now we know the source we have given credit. We have also added a link to Swee in our links section as well as on the PGA site. Thanks again...
