dear shri kunjuppu,

i am sorry if i had struck a belligerent impression of my attitude/thoughts in the minds of seniors like you, in this forum.

..

saptha,

i think i was not clear enough. the issue is not you, but me. as someone who thinks almost mirror image of your views, i make it a point to be of utmost respect to you.

i have found you very learned and righteously convinced of your faith, of which, i appreciate. i am no more elder to you than your son. all of us are equal, and pray do not put me on a pedestal.

i have also come to realize, in many a case, changes can be anguising as seen from the eyes of tradition. that i do not have respect for tradition is another matter, but that should not prevent me from being sensitive to folks like you.

to me there are natural allies like nara, with whom i agree on many things, but do not have his sense of dogged committment. then there are others like happy or renuka who are probably the future faces of hinduism.

*** and his likes, do a noble job to salvage and help out our poorer brethren. in each way we live and observe to an extent the handmedowns of our heritage.

my earlier note to you was in that context. hope this response (somewhat) clears it up. or maybe not (!)

thank you.
