Dear Anbil Swamin,
While adiyen will second your thoughts, adiyen has doubts if even in the U.S. we will stand united. Any Srivaishnavite immigrant born and brought up in any of the divyadesams in India is, in my humble opinion , bound to have strong feelings about either of the kalais. While am not justifying anyone's feelings or opinions on this issue as just or right, please don't get upset when heated arguments take place. One can only feel sad for fellow Srivaishanavites who intend to achieve the feet of the Acharya or the Lord with such strong feelings of animosity for fellow bhagavatas.


Dear Bhagavatas"
Several Bhagavatas have prevailed upon us to stop discussions on this topic
as it is heading to more heat than light, more polemics than enlightenment.

I am reluctantly constrained to say that no further postings on the subject
will be allowed in "Sri Ranga Sri". We would like to steer clear of
unwarranted controverises.

Even announcements on talks on Tele bridge focussing on differences and doctrinal differences between kalais etc will not be allowed. We have had enough of this.

The need of the hour is to look to areas of agreement, if at all there should be any discussions. As it is, we are a microscopic minority and it ill bodes for Srivaishnavas to indulge in such polemics, (both the subtle and the blatant varieties) making us the laughing stock of people who watch on the ringside! Our focus should be on unity and not bickering on details.

I repeat my slogan:
"At least in the United States, let us be in the united state"

What is really important is the enjoyment of Kalyanagunas of the divine couple as explained by Azhwars and Acharyas (both past and present). As Bhakti means devotional, dedicated, unconditional love towards Sriman Narayana and His various forms, such postings will be allowed.

Thamks for your understanding and cooperation.
Dasoham
