Dear Bhagavatas:

As the moderator of "Sri Ranga Sri", I wish to place the following 
for your information:

"Sri Ranga Sri" is mainly a journal for discussing Sampradayic 
matters for a better understanding of our Satsampradayam. This will 
be obvious from the Regular Issues released so far, containing, for 
example, topics on Grantha Chatushtayam viz.
"Desikamrutham", "SriBashyamrutham","Gitaamrutham", "Prabandaamrutham"
"Sri Ranga Vijayam", "Lessons for kids" etc.

We have been busy with the arrangements for the "Swami Desika 
Tirunakshatra Mahotsavam" slated for 29th September 2001 at Buffalo, 
New York, which left us little time for releasing regular issues for 
quite sometime now. We hope to resume regular issues after the 
Mahotsavam.

The reason why postings on various matters (other than "Regular 
Issues of the journal, which number about 54) were featured is to 
afford facilities for "Reader participation" only. The views 
expressed by the authors of these postings are not necessarily those 
of "Sri Ranga Sri".

Discussions on "Fate, Freewill and Bhagavat Sankalpam" etc. and 
linking them to the recent tragic events and such other sensitive 
issues are likely to generate unintended and undesirable reactions, 
inspite of best of intentions and forceful disclaimers. 

Bhagavatas are requested to desist from posting discussions on such 
topics. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Let me hasten to assure you that this is not any abdication of our feelings. 
All we can do at the moment is to offer our fervant prayers to Divyadhampathis 
to save the entire humanity from any tragedies in future because in our 
Sampradayam all are "Vishnuputras" and "Vishnu sambandhis", grant good 
thoughts, words and deeds to all concerned, and give the strength to withstand 
the trauma to those injured and breaved in the tragedy.

Our Acharyas have advised recitation in each of our homes for universal 
welfare, Desika Stotras like Abheethi Sthavam, Sudarsana Ashtakam, 
Kamasikashtakam, Paduka Sahasram Slokam 17 of Marathaka Padddhathi :
Animisha yuvatheenaam aartha naadhopasaanthyai
tvayi Vinihitha paade leelayaa Ranganaathe /
dadhathi charana rakshe daithya soudhaani noonam
marathaka ruchibhis te mankshu doorvaankuraani //

Let us do these as many times as possible.
Sarve Janaa: Sukhino Bhavanthu /
