Guest guest Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 No my friend, Their likes will have to either reform themselves or will face the heat of well-grounded scholarship if they continue to flounce too much. They have to stand their ground, for which they have to have their grounding really good to be able to cast aspersions on others where they know no better than hitting below the belt in the disputation. Which of course is not done. What are we here for? Credit and kudos will be given where due; but that is not the idea. We are here to learn as a (hobby) group, to test our understanding vis-a-vis others'. If somebody knows very little and comes here, maintaining a modicum of decorum, to learn from group discussion, he or she cannot be slighted for holding a view less complete or flawed. He can be politely and -- in the second or third round maybe -- firmly told where he stands. That is it. Barbs are a no-no. Extra-astrological aspects of one's presentation cannot be made the subject of scrutiny in order to do somebody down. There are quite a few distinguished memebers among us. Distinguished either in the field of astrology or elsewhere (in fact more distinguished than our 'feuding forum friends' can imagine) or both. I doubt if such petty-mindedness will ever make for worthwhile scholarship. That is why I wrote: "And then schoplarship. Indeed" This is a vidya whose adhikaaree is called daivijna (daivajna). If we aspire to come anywhere near that appellation let's watch our conduct. For, aajnaa cannot carry (and consolidate) its payload where anaahata 'runs' amok. And it is for the sudhee (su+dhee) to pick up the lakshaNaa here. Sincerely, - RK Dash Madhu Nair <balagurusurya wrote: Dear rk dash, Thanks a lot for your kind message . Despite your terrific command in English, you don't find it condesending to interact with others who are not as proficient as you, in English vocabulary.It shows your magnanimity . Unfortunately , some who masquerade as the "be all and end all " in the implications of various Zodiac , and make futile attempts to resuscitate the Sayana Zodiac , use their language proficiency to jibe, their critics typo errors and grammatical mistakes , especially, when the latter disagree with the former's pet theories on Sayana Zodiac Best Regards Madhu Nair Once upon a time there was 1 GB storage on Mail.
