to Pranada about prayer list

[Guest guest]

Dear Pranada ~ I agree with you that this is a sticky wicket, as the saying

goes. I think perhaps leave it to individuals to add this to their prayer

lists if they feel so inclined. I feel a little bit uncomfortable about

something

being on the prayer list when there is not strong mutual agreement among the

group. Just my 2 cents. Jai Jai Ma ~ Linda P.S. the history of the prayer

list started off, and somewhat remained for a number of years, praying for

individual people or groups of people in a time of disaster. And I do think the

Lokah prayer can about cover everything else, without being divisive.

I personally feel quite uncomfortable with praying for specific agendas in

specific governments, and I would not wish to ask others to pray for that

which makes them uncomfortable. However, I will put this out to the group to

decide, and defer to their decision.

Dear Pranada ~ I don't recall anything you wrote as being divisive, but only

speaking from the heart. Part of the " job " of the Prayer List Coordinator is

to stand for the intention of and overall purpose of the prayer list. Please

don't stop being the coordinator. I was the coordinator for several years,

and I know the amount of work and devotion it takes. You put the question to

the group. Let the group weigh in. But I don't see anything you've written as

divisive; in my limited experience so far, you hold up the highest standards,

for yourself and for what you do. I don't think we could ask for anything

better or on more sound footing than this. Jai Jai Ma ~ Linda P.S. Okay, I

already threw in my 2 cents, and this is 2 more, and maybe there will be 2 more.

I just don't know.

....I have felt that a recent post of mine was taken as divisive, dualistic,

repressive, and silencing, and this has made me quite sad. I do not wish to

make anyone feel silenced. I was silenced as a child, and the thought that I

may have silenced others is quite upsetting for me. And division is entirely

the opposite of what I was trying to accomplish. I apologize deeply to those

who've felt silenced in any way by anything I've said.

 

Again, I am offering this to the group to decide together. I was clearly in

the minority with my attitude about what is being discussed on the list, and

I am open to the possibility that I am in the minority here as well. It may

be that I am simply not the prayer list coordinator this group is coming to

need, and I will gladly pass on the privilege of this seva to someone else

if my personal viewpoints are not shared and are causing people to feel

stifled in their prayer requests.
