Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Dear Members, Regret to see that I have to step into clean up the discussions here. I strongly believe in self moderation, especially in a forum that has such high intellectual content. I am taking the following steps to start with: a) Posts by all new members will be moderated. b) Any post that is personal, abusive or pejorative would be deleted and the member informed. This is already being done. However, henceforth, more than one such post will result in immediate banning of the member from the group. c) Any message that is not Jyotish related will be deleted. I am really sorry for this step but lets see how this goes and we can always relax the rules. regards, Raj Rao Moderator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Namaste Sri Raj Rao Thank you for the same. Now that you are moderating this group, I guess there is no need to carry on with the Hora Shastra group. The need only arose since this group was not being moderated. Can I suggest that you make more moderators here who are fair and can share this task with you?

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Bharatji No need to share the moderation task, we are all mature and intelligent adults here. Even the most fairest of persons can evolve into over-zealous authoritarians when given moderator status. I have witnessed this in several forums. So lets leave things as they are. , " Bharat - Hindu Astrology " <astrologyhindu wrote: > > Namaste Sri Raj Rao > > Thank you for the same.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Bhaskarji/Bharatji I don't feel that any mutual goodness has been lost : my messages were written in good spirit! Thanks for your concern anyway. I had put this query to the forum a while back: What does Mars, as YK in most D-charts(as well as Rasi), placed in 10th house indicate? Clearly this indicates a powerfull Mars, and a great career motivation.Does this possibly indicate (succesfull) male siblings? I am interested in insights based on practical experiance.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Namaste Sri Atma Tamas is also an expression of viewing the world topsy turvy. There is not always a disregard to understand, but one thinks one understands correctly when one does not. Generalization are surely Tamasic. I wouldn't put them in Rajas.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Namaste Sri Bhaskar We are not fighting but rather discussing the nature of Tamas, without suggesting that either one is. Tamas is a quality which has to exist within all unless one realizes the Truth.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Yes Sir, Namaste. I know that you people are made of better stuff, and have shown so, in face of provocations too, and never resorted to base language, that is why I did not wish that any arguments may be prolonged in you both's case. No other reason. I know you both are spiritually much elevated then most of us, so I never surmised that you were in some verbal duel, but just in case it should turn that, was my fear.I never like or wish that good people argue for long on a single subject. And also let me confess I was really impressed by your silence on few occasions when I spoke otherwise,of those leaving the Forum, surely I did not mean ill of anyone, but had just felt sad. Once again you proved to be in the lead by not shooting back on those statements I made. I am learning from you people. But alls well that ends well. regards, Bhaskar. , " Bharat - Hindu Astrology " <astrologyhindu wrote: > > Namaste Sri Bhaskar > > We are not fighting but rather discussing the nature of Tamas, without > suggesting that either one is.
