srimatE rAmAnujAya nama: Dear rAmAnuja sambhandhis: It is with great sadness 
that I am writing this although I am not sure where and how to begin this.... 
Yesterday during a conversation, I was told by a non-shrivaishnava devotee of 
the Chicago Balaji temple that there has been a lot of politics and division 
among the - and I quote her - " Iyengnar groups of the Balaji temple...to the 
extent that one group of Iyengars are talking ill of other group and even 
saying that they will stop going to the temple ..." She added that she was 
surprised to see that people who she thought were great devotees have started 
talking ill of each other due to ego problems." unquote. I am totally unaware 
of any problems that may be in the Chicago temple and have no wish to start a 
discussion of that in this forum.. The only reason I am writing this here is 
make a humble appeal against such public display of greivances. My humble 
appeal to all the devotees involved - whatever differences you have please 
please please solve among yourselves and do not bring it to the outside world 
and make people talk ill of the greatest of all sampradAyAs - the rAmAnuja 
sampradAya..Let each one of us of the rAmAnuja kutumbam, atleast here in the 
USA, take an oath this chittirai tiruvAdhirai , that we will try our best to 
uphold the values of this greatest sampradAyam. EmberumAnAr tiruvadigalE 
saranam rAmAnuja dAsi
