No personal attacks please!

[Guest guest]

Dear Utkal ji,

It is not at all about Tantra, Veda or about the subject at all. But about the

decent use of words and avoiding personal attacks. Please use proper words and

attack the subject and NOT the individual. I have nothing against you stands

about the subject under discussion or Satya Prakash ji's; both of you can stick

to your own opinions how ever contradictory they are and still be friends and

cordially coexist in this group. But personal attacks and name calling is NOT

acceptable. Please don't call other knowledgeable members IGNORANT what ever be

your and his opinion differ in the subject under discussion - that is simply NOT

DECENT.

I appreciate your knowledge about the subject under discussion and your well

informed stands. But that doesn't make me accept the personal attacks and name

calling. Hope I have clarified my stands.

Further -

* This group didn't gave word to anybody that it will be an RSS or Hindu

fundamentalist group and will not be tolerant to broader perspectives.

* This group is not against any caste, religion, country, philosophical,

spiritual perspective at all; even though the prime focus of the group is

ancient indian astrology.

* What is right or wrong depends of individual perspective - but in this group

we are supposed to respect each other, avoid personal attacks, and verbal abuse

against individuals. We are all free to hold our own individual opinions and is

equally free to agree or disagree with each other. That keeps the atmosphere

healthy and not the intolerant name calling from a religious fundamentalist

perspective! (The religious fundamentalists and terrorists and their arrogant

attacking perspective and nature, does not uplift the heritage and worth of a

community and culture but instead downgrade it! It is not because of them the

heritage and culture survives, but it is because of the heritage and culture

that they survive!).

Love and regards,

Sreenadh
