2- & Saikumar, from MarkK...1/28....re.... Brahmin Bags

[Guest guest]

Dear Saifumar:

I'm sure there's a place for fighting the important battles.

But, I don't know if fighting to keep the word, 'brahmin' save, is one of them.

I know how you feel, but maybe you could look at it another way.

Maybe consider this a good thing, in fact, maybe more representative... of the

fact that Brahman is beginning to be more in the national or international

consciousness.

And besides, everyone's going to know it's an unusual name, and will wonder,

where does this name come from.

Maybe instead get on the net and create a website all about Brahmin or Brahman...

and in explaining it all....they'll come to think....of that...

each time they pick up their bags with a similar name...

Someone said one time, 'that what you put attention on grows stronger in your life....'

So, maybe people haveing the word brahmin circulating in their brain.... will be

actually a good thing... and help...all...to move towards....brahman!

Just an idea....

Sincerely,

Mark Kincaid

[vedic astrology] Brahmin Bags

Dear All,

The other day I was walking in "Dillards" store and was surprised to see a brand

of handbags "Brahmin".

I think this violation of the holy name of this subsect of Hinduism should be condemned.

I am trying to find means and ways to communicate to the company for using that word.

For me, I think it is my dharma to protect my religion and its constituents. I

am more afraid becuase if tomorrow that becomes a big brand, the westerners

would identify it with bags rather than what it actually stands for, as we know

how little general knowledge the Westerners possess about the outside world.

Help me to think rationally and let me know if you think I am acting in a

reactionary manner rather than thinking logically.

And if anyone has any suggestions about how I/or we(whoever is ready to join me

in this battle) communicate to the company, please feel free to write back to

me

Let me know what you think.

Regards

Sai

Dear list members,

 

Could any learned member(s) forward me references to classical texts wherein the

use of gems as remedial measures have been covered ? Also texts signifying the

use of specific gems for specific planets.

 

Regards.
