Hi All,

Saturday is off and I decide to do jyotish after long time, I come to

meet my friend and we see such mails on our favourite list wherein

someone called Sreenadh is attacking Chandrashekhar and becoming so

personal. So unfortunate to see hardly ONE MAN ON THIS LIST to come up

to defense of Mr. Chandrashekhar. Hats off to you Mr. Mukesh & I hope

Mr. Chandrashekhar has not left this list. Whether he has not knowledge

or not is another question but atleast he maintains nobility in his

talks.

 

I have browsed through some mails and seems today is a sad day for this

list which had greats like Mr. Rao who gave us pearls. The good old days

would never come back.

 

Shame on us all.

 

Sushmita

Hi Sushmita,

 

excellent post. I observed people did not object to foul language (rather they

were busy in defiending him yesterday) used by Sreenadh. When I read the thread,

i realized he did the same with senior astrologer / member Shri Chandrasekhar

ji. Yesterday, similiar thing happened on his own forum, when he rediculed

another senior astrologer Robert Koch. Prior to that, he made / supported racist

comment again Shri Sunil John.

 

Well there seems to be history of such incidents.

 

May be that is how people have learnt/adapted to resist in civilized (and self

centered) society.

 

Really shameful conduct.

Hi Prafulla,

Thanks. I just might not believe what you wrote.

 

1) I read a post where good old Chandrashekhar was insulted, are you

telling me the moderator did nothing about it later. I just read a quick

post by Mukesh but assumed that later Pradeep or maybe members who are

older to him cum senior here would have come forth and reprimanded such

display of arrogance. Did Ben do nothing about it.

 

2) I did not know this Sreenadh had a forum, Robert Koch is a very

senior astrologer ridiculing him means Kaliyuga has really started in

his worst form here on these lists.

 

3) This is shocking and the very first in the history of forums I assume

- a Racist comment and that too against Sunil. Let me go deeper in

this..... This would have caused Sunil to unleash his fury on that list,

will find out which list is this and join there to see what happened.

Sounds fun.

 

Are you telling me after doing all these, there are people who support

this Sreenadh and want to learn from him. I would die but never ever

read a mail from Sreenadh even if he gives Brahma Gyan since such

knowledge comes with sin. And this Sin ruins our life, I have met many

senior astrologers who have told me this. I have had deep discussions on

what are the effects of learning from evil people, this is bad bad karma

& the effects of it would show someday.

 

How come after all this none of the lists bans such people or have our

morals gone down the drain that we want to be in good books of everyone

by becoming PR specialists.

 

I feel curse comes on us when we do not act properly on such issues.

 

I must go for a lunch meeting (someone treating me :))), would try to

check mails tonight.

 

Regards,

Sushmita

When I read the thread, i realized he did the same with senior

astrologer / member Shri Chandrasekhar ji. Yesterday, similiar thing

happened on his own forum, when he rediculed another senior astrologer

Robert Koch. Prior to that, he made / supported racist comment again

Shri Sunil John.

Hi Sushmita,

[Prafulla] - well, once you read the threads / posts, you will have

to believe it painfully.

[Prafulla] what is the point, once damage is done or abuse is

caused. I do not think, that moderator banned him - else, he would

not have repeated the incident.

[Prafulla] Yes real sad incidents.

[Prafulla] well, in our journey, each one has perception of " art of

living " .

[Prafulla] Isn't it sad !! Perhaps politicisng of groups have the

conclusive impact, on " internet jyotish " .

[Prafulla] thanks for sharing your feelings.
