Guest guest Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 RR, AFTER A LONG timw on thinking if I should respond or take it in my stide iI felt in the interest of the group it must roll on to set the record straight. THERE IS ONE THING I MUST APOLOGISE THE WHOLE DEBATE WOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE JOB THAT ONLY RR DOES was not taken by me. I wated the Qurent to explain what she wanted not dig at her. why u miss the point and make ONLY NOISE,i said the qurent did not ask anyting anyone could make sense or read so asked her to put it across again. in case she can find ways to do it AND ENGLISH in different forms, I did not contest BUT RATHER PUT IT across. just to add like how French, German, Arabs make it sound different with their mother tounge playing a role. not ingoring the various sub dilects like, Welsh, Kent, Scotish English, Least You feel I've left them...! AND Inglish as you suggest is no problem with me, the point was about the writer's mail. DID i contest Swami vivekananda anywhere for the jibe it was just the sound here. THIS FACT THAT MOTHER TOUNGE HAS AN IMPACT IS well researched and documented. not my theory. the varouos bodies that are around to make English, or Language learning more successful. ABOUT MY SHORT CUTS I HOPE YOU HAVE USED INTERNET FOR SOME YEARS BY NOW! MOST WEB BROWSERS, REDIFF, , MSN etc have a section called Net Jargom it is standard and phonitic. NOT ARROGANT and for someone whose name was in long threads on HAVING a poll conducted for ` THE MOST ARROGENT PERSON in the group,to call anyone else is strange. AND REMEMBER I HAD NO PART IN IT, IT WAS THE MOST POUPLAR THING it was said and sure is, by this mail but for today's mail on Vasya i rarely seen you discuss astrology or related comments just critisize, make fun, draw the drift? what else can u call HYPOCRACY. it is useful if comments are constructive as today on Vasya. and some debate thant just to show how arragont you are. I STAKE STRONG OBJECTION TO THE FOLLOWING AND HOPE Mr. TANIVIR STEPS IN AND SETS THE ORDER calling me having double personality is a baseless allegation and tanvir shall take note of it fact of RR's calling ME as having one image and doing another as CHARACTER ASSASINATION or PERSONAL ASSAULT and I ask tanvir to restore decency in the group, for all members. IT IS needless to RESTATE that I belong to the founding members of ICAS, india's premier astro institute and having spent two and half decades of experience in reading charts as well as TEACHING ASTROLOGY dont think that I am some tom, dick or harry. I had earlier told you I had some vision problems and to save time and help more no of people have used short cuts which are common knowledge. even in an earlier occassion when I had asked RR to expand on something he said, he replied as though I had asked him if I were TANVIR (the host here I guess) but then how does he take the role of TANVIR in taking digs at everyone in the group, if there is one posting that HAS NOT ATTRACTED RR's acid wash please stand up, time to celeberate it. the lucky ones I, respect and regard for all fraternity as well as querents alike but sambodhana and sarcastic warnings elicit no respect. crystal pages <jyotish_vani wrote: Prashanta, Tbanks for responding and sharing with us all, your view of language and english in particular.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Dear All, At the end, reading the mail of RR ji and Prashant ji on Vasya and Hinglish, I feel like appreciating RR ji for starting this controversy. Brushing away all the thorny accusations, conveyed between RR ji and Prashant ji, if somebody looks at those conversations, I think they also would feel the same. Look at the good amount of info poured in by Prashanji and RR ji (and yes by me too) by way of arguments!! Those messages convey a very good amount of useful info though not directly related to astrology!! If there was not such a controversy I don't think such info on language and logic will appear in this forum. So, yes, at the end, I feel like appreciating the controversy started by RR ji. I think this view makes sense. Yes, occasionally we need such arguments!! But just need to brush away or avoid such thorny accusations and the ego hurdle!!

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Prashant, Your allegations are baseless. I hardly know you or care to know about your form or content as a human being or jyotishi or whatever -- so I am not sure why you allege that called you a double personality or other things :-) Your vision or the consequences thereof have nothing to do with this and I have never ever mentioned anything about that. Since you are directly attacking me by name, which is something I prefer better than how some people discharge their negative emotions, frustrations, other negative feelings etc. What I find objectionable about your writing is that you criticise others for the very things that you yourself are guilty of, namely: sarcasm long winding messages difficult to understand style at times. I am not perfect and I never said so. I write long messages, I can be sarcastic at times, my syntax and run-on sentences (at least in jyotish writings), I know irritate some and are appreciated by some. But I only attack individuals in response and in defense. I am very aware of the saying: Those who live in glass houses should not throw a stone at others. But if a stone is heading this way, don't expect me to hide and play lamb! I know there is a segment of jyotishis that hates my guts because I don't let them get away with just writing something as if it is some gospel truth. They make loud noises and voice assumptions like, "Jyotish is science" and feel threatened and challenged when someone even non-challengingly requests illustrations or even proof. No scientist would ever feel threatened or challenged by such requests. Some jyotishis have this wrong assumption that they are somehow the bearers of the burden of proof for jyotish. It is too huge for all of our shoulders even if we were to join those. They take questions aimed at jyotish personally as if their personal integrity is on the line and being attacked. Then there are those that would immediately bring up classics as if they are incontrovertible proof of anything. Most classics are really wonderful collections of possibilities and not certainties. Many astrologers get so happy when they find a few combinations given in some classics to work out in a chart. That is interesting but not enough to convince people out there, outside the club of jyotishis and jyotish afficianodos. Now some individuals may be blase' about that and do not feel it necessary to convince anybody, but that is their opinion. Then there are many preconceived notions in jyotish and a certain elitist mentality in certain groups of individuals. I feel it necessary to challenge these misconceptions and will continue with or without your or anyone's blessings. Just so you know, where I am coming from ...

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Dear RR ji, while reading through your passing comments to all the other mails, I was thinking that, you will just continue to feel exalted and nothing worthy is going to come out today. But this mail was really different one. Thank you for that. Though I disagree with many of the ideas expressed it was really good reading stuff. I was really impressed with the last para - > No scientist would ever feel threatened or challenged by such > requests. Some jyotishis have this wrong assumption that they are > somehow the bearers of the burden of proof for jyotish. It is too > huge for all of our shoulders even if we were to join those.
