Saprem Namaskar.
As many of you probably know, I am one of the organizers of
Global Hindu Electronic Networks, which incorporates
The Hindu Universe, perhaps one of the bigger Hindu
WWW sites. URL:
http://rbhatnagar.csm.uc.edu:8080/hindu_universe.html
I have sought to incorporate all the Hindu viewpoints
in the Hindu Universe, without ideology and personality
consideration. My primary goal being, to offer widest
possible exposure to the Hindu ideas and ideals that we and other
people have put together on the net.
I am glad to see that some of the proponets of the SRH re-organization
are taking pride in the fact that their sites are included in the
Hindu Universe. In fact, we would have really appreciated a reciprocal
link on all those sites as well, in the same spirit of Hindu unity,
but alas, that has not happened! Oh Well!!
However, the key, if I may note, is that the present moderator or
SRH, (i.e., I) espouse the same non-sectarian all encompassing Hindu
unity approach to the Hindu Universe as to the SRH. Inclusion, not
exclusion, is the central theme of all the work I do.
Afterall, we even provide multiple links to the site created by one
of the proponents of SRH re-organization who actually voted against
the creation of Soc.Religion.Hindu
The proponents of SRH re-organization have first kept the word Hindu
out of the Vaishnava newsgroup (SRV), and then, have proceeded to
destroy the existing Hindu newsgroup, SRH. All this, merely because,
in the spirit of Hindu unity, I sought incorporation of the word Hindu
in the newsgroup name Soc.religion.hindu.
Hopefully, the readers will clearly see through this. After all,
why didn't the proponents of Soc.religion.Vaishnava proceed to create
other philosophy/functionality based newsgroups, such as
soc.religion.hindu.shivaite, soc.religion.hindu.bhagwadgita,
soc.religion.hindu.vedas, soc.religion.hindu.bhajans etc.?
Surely, they would have found everyone's hearty support in this effort.
Then again, perhaps, it was the word Hindu that prevented them from
suggesting these groups?
