Hi,
I need not be in agreement with 'thoughtful' argument going on with 'worthy'
vedavati but mr Roy how come avid readers like you (as the claim go) can
suggest 'silencing' the voice the way you suggest. No I don't have a better
way out but it DO NOT mean endorsing 'fundamentalist like' way you are
suggesting. When dispotism creep in it surely come this way only(A
apparently rational way). And trust me once arrived it will not stop at
silencing 'vedavatis of this world' only. It will surely reach Tapas' as
well. So please let the wisdom prevail and let it be so through a process
only. Hope you all will consider

this world</i><br>Date: <i>Fri, 05 Aug 2005 20:16:16 +0530</i><br>>I am
a confirmed lurker on this list (as in a few others), who
<br>>prefers<br>>listening to talking. But I find myself sufficiently
intrigued by <br>>the posts<br>>of this person, who calls
herself/himself "Vedavati Jogi", to say a
<br>>few<br>>things. I hope people here will pardon me if my post
shows that I <br>>have<br>>missed something. I do confess that I
haven't read everything over <br>>the last<br>>few
days.<br>><br>>I am not at all certain that this person is who s/he
claims to be. <br>>Please<br>>note that the name "Vedavati
Jogi" translates as a female yogi, who <br>>has<br>>acquired the
wisdon of the Vedas ... should have been "Jogini", but
<br>>that<br>>would have given the game away, and in any case Jogi
fits in nicely <br>>as a<br>>surname, because we all have heard of
Ajit Jogi, haven't we? The <br>>point here<br>>is, the name seems too
perfect to be real. I suspect it has been <br>>dreamt up<br>>by some
prankster.<br>><br>>Please also note this jogi's/jogini's email
address - <br>>vrjogi at hotmail.com.<br>>Good old Hotmail, which - like
scores of other free email services - <br>>lets<br>>you assume any
name that your fertile brain can think up. Not for <br>>them
the<br>>rigours of identity and address proof (which I have had to
provide <br>>to VSNL<br>>before being given an
account).<br>><br>>What may be the nature of the prank? Again, my
suspicion is that <br>>this person<br>>is playing the devil's
advocate. If s/he were sincerely advocating <br>>the<br>>devil's
cause, I think s/he would have been - well, tried to be - a
<br>>little<br>>less crude in her/his
advocacy.<br>><br>>Whatever it is - whether or not s/he has her/his
tongue in her/his <br>>cheek -<br>>would it be too much to ask this
person to raise the level of <br>>her/his<br>>invectives a little? If
s/he does, that will give everybody a chance <br>>to<br>>actually
discuss things.<br>><br>>Just a thought - even though this list is not
moderated, is it not <br>>possible<br>>to bounce someone if she/he
makes a nuisance of herself/himself?<br>><br>>Tapas
Ray<br>><br>><br>>>hearty congratulations mr. ashok. you could
dare to expose these<br>>>psedosecularists, they are
more<br>>>dangerous than terrorists. can secularism be more imporatant
than<br>>>nationalism? i sincerely feel<br>>>indian secularism
is all 'bakwas'. these secularists will not mind
<br>>>selling<br>>>off this country to<br>>>terrorists
because latter happened to be the muslims.<br>>>i am a maharashtrian
married to a kashmiri pandit who has become
<br>>>regugee<br>>>in his own country. as<br>>>they are
hindus nobody in interested in their welfare because this
<br>>>act<br>>>will tarnish their secular<br>>>image.
'talking to pakistan' 'talking to terrorists' etc. etc. is
<br>>>secular<br>>>because they are<br>>>muslims. i hate
this pseudo secularism i hate these secularists.<br>>>vedavati
