Late Mr.Pandurang Shashtri Athavale is popularly known as Dada. Dada means elder brother in Marathi - An Indian Language spoken in State of Maharashtra. Here-in-after, I shall refer Pandurang Shashtri Athavale as Dada. Dada gave discourses upon message of Srimad Bhagwad Geeta - A scripture of Hindus. He motivated people to use one's god gifted abilities to speak, move, think, hear for selfless work which he called Kruti-Bhakti. Based on this principle/logic his followers known as Swadhyayees moved from house to house and went to Indian villages at one's own cost and spreaded the message of Srimad Bhagwad Geeta and nurtured these activities. The number of followers went on increasing and at present it could be in millions but that does not necessarily mean that the followers observe dictates of Srimad Bhagwad Geeta henceforth shall be referred to as Geeta.

*[[:Image:194467.JPG]] -- [[Image talk:194467.JPG|talk]]
Dada also motivated Swadhyayees to involve in money producing experiments for spread of renovation of Vedic culture. Experiments known as "Yogeshwar Krushi", "Shree Darshan", "Vruksh-Mandir", "Amrutalayams", "Matsya-Gandha" and so on. The financial returns along with donations received were collected in nearly 100 trusts created for Swadhyay activities. The trustees were dedicated Swadhyayees and Dada was not a trustee. Dada used to say that The President of Swadhyay activities was God (Lord Yogeshwar).
*[[:Image:Alface.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Alface.jpg|talk]]
*[[:Image:AtardecerMurcielago.JPG]] -- [[Image talk:AtardecerMurcielago.JPG|talk]]
Around June, 2000, Dada told trustees that The Swadhyay activities were his ownership and he was handing over reign of These activities to his adopted daughter Smt.Jayshree a.k.a. Dhanshree Srinivas Talwakar popularly known as Didi. Simultaneously, all the neutral trustees from all trusts were removed and replaced by Didi and her husband Srinivas Talwalkar a.k.a. Rao Saheb. Dada used to take blank resignation letters from the trustees in advance.
*[[:Image:BarcelonaenManta.JPG]] -- [[Image talk:BarcelonaenManta.JPG|talk]]
*[[:Image:Bellissima! cover.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Bellissima! cover.jpg|talk]]
This was not well received by old dedicated Swadhyayees who had helped in foundation and nurture of these activities from day 1.
*[[:Image:Bianca office portrait.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Bianca office portrait.jpg|talk]]
*[[:Image:BirlasoftLogoJPEG.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:BirlasoftLogoJPEG.jpg|talk]]
This was protested by old Swadhyayees and it resulted in violent attacks on old Swadhyayees by comperatively new Swadhyayees. The first attempt had taken place on 28th January, 2001 on Mahesh Shah an industrialist.
*[[:Image:Busan emblem.gif]] -- [[Image talk:Busan emblem.gif|talk]]
*[[:Image:Busan1 uniform.gif]] -- [[Image talk:Busan1 uniform.gif|talk]]
After an year, In June, 2001, The Hon. Ex-Chief Justice of High Court at Ahmedabad and Andhra Pradesh declared to media that Didi was using money and muscle power against old Swadhyayees, therefore he was submitting his resignation to Dada. He told the media that The funds of the trust in securities were valued at Indian Rupees Two Hundred Crores and property valued at Indian Rupees Five Hundred Crores. All the facts here-in are documented in Indian Newspapers. This fact had appeared first in "Gujarat Samachar" and later in all Gujarati newspapers.
*[[:Image:Busan2 uniform.gif]] -- [[Image talk:Busan2 uniform.gif|talk]]
*[[:Image:Cyut logo.png]] -- [[Image talk:Cyut logo.png|talk]]
Subsequently, number of old Swadhyayees became victims of violence and faced false criminal cases. The criminal cases were over 100 filed in rural Gujarat & Maharashtra ( Indian States) against various old Swadhyayees and/or ex-trustees. In 22 identical cases, an appeal was preferred by one Pankaj Trivedi and others in High Court at Ahmedabad. The High Court ruled in the matter in favour of Pankaj Trivedi and quashed all criminal cases at one go. The High Court further observed and recorded that the language of all 22 cases were word by word same and cases had been filed by different persons miles away from each other. The Court hence stated that the cases were filed in retalliation of bonafide civil case filed by Pankaj Trivedi for opening of a temple which was closed down by Didi to harass Pankaj Trivedi. The temple at Bhav-Nirjar, Ahmedabad had come in existence with the help of Pankaj Trivedi. The Judgement is documentary evidence and can be varified from The High Court at Ahmedabad.

Those who were assaulted and their bones broken are Vinod Shah, Shankar Thakkar of Mumbai, Vinoo Sanchania of London while he was in Jamnagar, Gujarat, India. One Satish Rughani of Rajkot was assaulted in his house. He just came out after bath and his towel was thrown and he was naked. His wife was locked up in other room. Satish Rughani had accompanied Dada for receiving Megsasay Award.

Some of the old Swadhyayees were arrested like core criminals by police from other states and brutally beaten on the way to the state of police and in lock-up too against the legal provisions not to use 3rd degree for confession.

*[[:Image:Escut de Cabrils.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Escut de Cabrils.jpg|talk]]
On court dates or while the arrested were presented before The Magistrate, thousands of Swadhyayees from villages were summoned to the court who tried to kill some of the arrested old Swadhyayees. Usually, police had to resort to cane charging to disperse the mob and protect the arresteds lives.
*[[:Image:GR crest.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:GR crest.jpg|talk]]
*[[:Image:GW crest.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:GW crest.jpg|talk]]
All these facts are documented by newspapers. Cases were filed against number of newspapers by Swadhyayees for reporting such un-becoming attitude of Swadhyayees against old Swadhyayees. The Press Council of India decided in favour of newspapers. In English, a magazine "India Today" had published an article highlighting wrongs of Swadhyay.
*[[:Image:Glorious01.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Glorious01.jpg|talk]]
*[[:Image:GoodMorningSunshineEP.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:GoodMorningSunshineEP.jpg|talk]]
Pankaj Trivedi was killed on 15th June, 2006 outside Ellisbridge Gymkhana, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. The police arrested eight to ten senior Swadhyayees. One of them was Ghanshyam Chudasama, P.A. to Dy. Comm. of Police under whose jurisdiction Pankaj Trivedi was killed. Ghanshyam Chudasama was working with some other office and using some influence, he had got himself transferred to Dy. Comm. of Police. As confessed by him, the plot to kill Pankaj Trivedi took place in The High Court premises when the order in favour of Pankaj Trivedi was passed.
*[[:Image:Hidden Invasion.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Hidden Invasion.jpg|talk]]
*[[:Image:Home Link Hover.gif]] -- [[Image talk:Home Link Hover.gif|talk]]
Pankaj Trivedi was a green card holder and shuttling between U.S.A. and India. He went to U.S.A. just about 3 months before his life was taken away. He was harassed at U.S. air-port. When he came out of air-port, 4 white-skin people in uniform accosted him and warned of not to speak a word about Swadhyay wrongs while he was to stay in U.S.A.
*[[:Image:Hpil.jpg]] -- [[Image talk:Hpil.jpg|talk]]

A. as some one has printed some writing in Urdu with his photo along with photo of Bin Laden and this writing was passed to U.S.A. police stating that Pankaj Trivedi was a Bin Laden associate and threat to President Bush. Home Security Agencied investigated this matter and found Pankaj Trivedi was innocent. These facts can be varified from Home Security Agency, U.S.A.

Hi, hope the above links are useful. I've been inactive, of late, and may not be able to help you much in this regard. How about placing a brief description of the problem on the [[WT:INWNB|Indian Wikipedians' notice board]]? Whatever edits you make, pl. ensure that they adhere to the [[WP:V|verifiability policies]] here. I am not sure if converting [[Swadhyay]] from a redirect to an article page is a good move. Also, it seems to have some personal opinions, which do not have a place on Wikipedia - pl. review your actions on this. [[Pandurang Shastri Athavale]] and [[Swadhyay pariwar]] are the pages that you may want to edit - however, they seem to be locked from editing for new members, hence you'll have to wait for a while. I again suggest that you place a msg. on the Indian wikipedians' notice board. --[[User:Gurubrahma|Gurubrahma]] 13:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Swadhyayee, this is the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Swadhyay&action=history link for the history page] of [[Swadhyay]]. You should probably be writing on [[Talk:Swadhyay]] as to why you believe that [[Swadhyay]] should not redirect to [[Swadhyay pariwar]]. Also, consider if it is better to redirect [[Swadhyay]] to [[Svadhyaya]] which already has some of the ideas you mention. If you want to create a new section on a talk page, just click "''+''" button next to the "''edit this page''" button. Pl. use ''Show preview'' button and [[WP:ES|edit summaries]] more often. Don't worry about the mistakes you may make, we have all done them here!

*[[Matt Lee (radio presenter)]] -- [[Talk:Matt Lee (radio presenter)|talk]]
*[[Matt McNerney]] -- [[Talk:Matt McNerney|talk]]
Svadhyay and all other spellings, ''in English'', will almost surely be referring to the Swadhyay Pariwar organization. This is why I thought the redirection from Svadhyay makes sense. As for the note at the top, I will add it, and I hope it will be acceptable. Let me know if it is not, and we can work something out. I will post a similar explanation on the talk page for the pages affected. -- [[User:Superdosh|Superdosh]] 19:52, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

*In response to your latest message, it's not a question of who's morally bankrupt or not. It's a question of notability. And in the English-speaking world, Swadhyay almost universally refers to the organization headed by Jayshree Talwalkar. Further, I'm not sure what else can really be said for the word, other than its definition -- which is now given at the top of the Swadhyay pariwar page. Also, I know that pariwar means family, but the organization is called the Swadhyay pariwar, and this is the encyclopedia, not the dictionary. We can't define all these terms. For example, would you have the page on the [[Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh]] say something about how the words are separate from the organization? -- [[User:Superdosh|Superdosh]] 04:13, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

**I understand that Swadhyay means self-study, I actually studied Sanskrit myself for a year. But, this is not the point. While in Gujarati and Hindi and Sanskrit, Swadhyay is simply a word, when it is used in English, it almost always refers to the organization. I do not have citations, but for example, a google search for swadhyay discounting all "swadhyay pariwar" references, almost all hits have to do with the organization, not the word [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22swadhyay%22+-%22swadhyay+pariwar%22&btnG=Google+Search].

Hi, I'd like to remind you again that I have very little interest at all in Swadhyay pariwar, so you really don't need to post news items about it on my talk page. The only reason I've been editing the article sporadically is to counter vandalism, and that's pretty much the only thing I can do there since I don't know anything about the movement. So if you want to discuss the article, please limit it to the [[Talk:Swadhyay pariwar|article's talk page]], it'll save you a lot of trouble.

Thanks for the constructive critisism, Swad... I can see your point, but I have ''attempted'' to read the article. However, it is difficult to read as-is. With the cleanup tag, I was hoping for more headings and more summarizing at the top. The intro is 10 paragraphs long, longer than most Wikipedia articles. Also, under '''Controversy''', you direct people to the Talk Page. I think, in that instance, it would be better to summarize both viewpoints on the issue. I think the intent of the talk page is for editors to discuss the article and changes to the article, not as a way to by-pass NPOV. Next, under ''Practices''... I think this whole section has to go. First, the whole section seems to refer to news items about the subject. These would be better merged into other parts of the argument, maybe present day history. Also, there are no citations for any part of this section as there should be. Finally, the last sentence ends in three exclamation points which is bad form in any written work, especially an encylcopedia article. Finally, on the subject of citations, I think there should be a lot more. A lot of the article seems to come from your (obviously vast) knowledge of the subject. This doesn't suffice for a Wikipedia article. Please don't take any of this as an attack against you. As I've said, I have absolutely no knowledge on this subject and I only found it with the Random Article link. My motive is simply to make it look like a first class article with absolute NPOV.

::It's true that the reasons why the term is considered offensive is often debated. But since it '''is''' considered offensive, it's best not to use it on Wikipedia. There are many other examples of words considered offensive/racist but have an unclear reason why. Like [[Zhina]] for example, a term used for China usually in Japan, is considered extremely racist (Japanese media even banned the term) because it sounds like it came from the West. Nevertheless, the origin for the name came from Sanskrit, and is used in Buddhist religious texts. But that doesn't justify the use of the term.

Thank you for your thoughtful comments and your note on my talk page. I have access to lots of books, so I should be able to find citations for some of the information on the divisions of the Vedas which you wanted to post. Of course we don't want to create redudancy, but there is room for improvement in the "Classification of Scriptures" section, and you are right that we should include a little more information on classification of the Vedas. Using your previous edits, I will make some suggestions (including citations) in the discussion page, and you can tell me whether you approve. I should be able to do it tomorrow. What do you think? You have some good ideas; we just need to figure out how to use them effectively considering the overall organization of the article.

P.S. I think you are still misunderstanding me about the Gita. Please read carefully what I am saying: I do not deny that the Gita is authentic. Almost all Hindus, including me, accept the Gita. I am only saying that there are many other Hindu scriptures ALSO. Of course, each Hindu may believe what he likes, but many Hindus believe in the Gita PLUS other books such as the Vedas, Upanishads, Srimad Bhagavatam, Yoga Sutras, Ramcharitmanas, etc. If the article says that the Gita alone is authentic, these other people will be unhappy. So we have to consider that there is a lot of variety within Hinduism, which, in my opinion, is a very good quality. In any case, the article already states that the Gita is perhaps the most important scripture in Hinduism, so I don't understand what the fight is about.

I wish you incorporate my edits your way so that it does not feel of having imposed by me upon you. You can make change in article, no need to put in discussion page as you already know my points. What is citation? if you write a book tomorrow, it would be a citation. We can't make this article to please a certain section of Hindus, we have to remove confusions and provide clear concept of Hinduism. I believe, The Vedas were in memories of class of Brahmins, I mentioned in the article. They are less in writing. My personal apprehension is we must have lost lot many Ruchas. Geeta is a scripture whose dictates you can practise and is known as Shashtra and summary of Vedas and Upnishads. Upnishads flow from Vedas and they are no different from Vedas. Whether any Hindu who read, study or chant Bhagwat or Ramcharitmanas don't find Geeta un-acceptable. I think that the message of Geeta is touching and impressing people of any belief so the article has to be within the frame-work of Geeta's dictates. With due apology, you wish to incorporate Raj Yog as a mean to realise God and anyone taking Geeta as authentic can confront your view, is that for this reason, are you undermining Geeta's supreme value as Shashtra?

You may have strong belief that 4 methods are illustrated in Hindu doctraines 1) Jnan Yog 2) Karma Yog 3) Raj Yog and 4) Bhakti Yog but I am afraid your belief is not in consistency with Hindu Shashtras. Pl. re-consider your views from authentic scriptures.

Regarding Raja yog: I understand that you do not accept Raja Yog. That is fine. You are a good Hindu, I am sure, and that is your belief. But you cannot try to censor other views. As you will recall, I agreed to remove Raja Yoga if a majority of other editors desire it. I respect your view, because Sanatan Dharm is all-embracing. The Hinduism page is not my personal page, and I am willing to change any edits ''if there is general agreement by other editors''. But so far it is only you who wants to delete Raja yog. I feel that you are trying to unilaterally censor the Hinduism page to express your own POV. I am happy for the article to express your POV--but you have to allow others also. Do you wish the article to say something like "some Hindu schools do not accept Raja Yoga?" We can include that if you like, and I do not think anybody will mind. We should be able to reach a solution that all will accept. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 04:39, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm still not voting, but I have lots of respect for Swami Sivananda as my pandit is a disciple of that lineage.[[User:Bakasuprman|Bakaman]] <font color = "blue"><sub>[[User talk:Bakasuprman|Bakatalk]]</sub></font> 16:41, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

I am insisting as I feel I am right. To me Raj Yoga is physical and mental process to meditate whereas Jnan, Bhakti and Karma as it seems to me are sciences. The end result of Raj Yog is attaining Jnan. My fight is supplementary to the goals of HeBhagawan and A.Pandey. I simply could not bear the bullying language of A.Pandey. Some composure and reading would have made them accept my view point or alternatively their logical arguments (except it is in Patanjali Yogsutra) would have benefited me with some additional knowledge. How am I to give citations from Geeta? Do I give them all Geeta available on internet? Should a person writing or editing article on Geeta, not have fundamental knowledge of doctrines of Geeta? A.Pandey is trying to bullying as he feels himself senior to me. I have to bear with this teething problems.[[User:Swadhyayee|Swadhyayee]] 16:51, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

:'''My dear friend''', as you are not willing to accpet any of the editors' views nor their presented citations (just like the reference given by bakaman above) but '''feel that you are right''', so what can anyone do. You feel helpless on how to give citations from Geeta and feel that I do not have fundamental knowledge of its doctarine. But let me tell you, I have physical copy of Geeta (along with Shankaracharya's Bhashya on it) lying next to me. All you have to do is to tell us the chapters and the shlokas where your POV is declated by Sri Bhagwan. Additionally, Geeta must be easily searchable in some online version over the internet. If you refer to that, then it will benefit others also who do not have a physical copy. You feel I am using bullying language. I can't help it. It is your problem if you feel so. No one else, who will see the talk page can say so. You even accussed me of making support groups just because some user RamRamji came and edited once and then left. I do not know him. But it is possible that he might not be able to access internet over the weekend. When I joined wikipedia, immediately I went to [[Varanasi]] page and made some edits, because that was my interest page. It is possible similarly that the new user RamRamji was very much interested in this page. Since you are new to wikipedia and you saw that I am here since a few months, you already assumed that I am thinking high of myself and you started ranting against me by linking my age and knowledge etc. How do I know how old are you. Are you 8 years old or 80 years old? I do not know. I don't need to know either. But you are making assumptions here about me assuming seniority over you. This is all very immature thinking and very kiddish. All I can say is that I feel very hurt by your allegations and pushing of POV. Anyway, you continue with your thinking, and we will keep the article only inline with Wikipedia's policy and based on facts, logical arguments and references.

I know how much a person can devote time for philosophy as well the exposure of philosophy available to a software engineer. I also have not studied philosophy but I have listened to discourses upon Geeta for more than 20 yrs. and have studiously read Jnaneshwari twice and Shankarbhashya twice along with other books of Pandurang Shashtri Athavale. I have also moved in Indian villages where our we had occasion to discuss Geeta.

I hope you realise that you are dis-respectful to others without knowing the limitations and even later you do not realise or regret. My differences were with HeBhagawan who has been maintaining decorum while you are inviting disputes. Here also you are giving me a long reply to my comments addressed to Bakasuprman. Today, you are asking me to give citations for things known to everyone. If I say Christ was crucified or Bible is Holy Book of Christain, one would not ask for citations. It is easy to ask for citations for no points. If you have Shankarbhashya in your hand,just try to find out whether Raj Yog is included with Jnan, Karma and Bhakti? known as science of realising God. Do you know what is Raj Yog? or just supporting HeBhagawan?

I have a suggestion: Why don't you help to edit other issues in the Hinduism Project? Let us leave the Raja Yoga issue. I was willing to accomodate you by putting a disclaimer, but it seems that other editors do not want to do even that. I felt compelled to report you to the admins because of your unfounded reversions, but I will gladly withdraw my report if you can put your efforts toward improving the article. There are so many things that need to be improved. Consider working on the Bhagavad Gita section, since you have great interest in that, and I think you will be able to find citations. I will try to find citations for the things you mentioned on the talk page. For a few of those things, a single citation is meant to cover multiple sentences. Thanks!

I take both, your suggestions and reporting to admin through Mr.Chris in good spirit. Hope you have seen my copy pasting of an annonymous request under IP address to someone drawing attn. to Raj Yog controversy. If the actions are backed by honest intentions, there was no need to make this annonymous request. What will you gain by banning me? I am happy that louder the issue, better the response. Frankly, I would not be so strong in my protests if I was weak. What is the guarantee that you will not behave in the same fashion, if I suggest to remove other wrongs? Hope you must have seen my comments on plenty of claims devoid of citation in just 1st few paras of Hinduism. I feel, you will prefer to keep silent when you will not have an answer. I can see your dedication in making a good article on Hinduism which would make me happier being a Hindu. I want the article should be as far as possible free from distorted facts. '''I do not want you to oblige me and withdraw the report, I want it to be blown out suitably, so justice will be done to the cause.''' To me Raj Yog issue is not an issue of prestige so I can think of compromising to gain your permission to edit elsewhere. We all learn and improve our thinking by this type of debate and war. At the end of any event, one has to come out as a sporty editor. I shall certainly do so and wish you and A.Pandey do the same. I repeat, I am taking your suggestions and reporting sportily and I am sure, I can deal with the situation even against many. It will be a matter of time. At no stage, you have objected to A.Pandey's arrogance as he was being coconut of The Holi. You should show the honesty in thinking that we are a minute part of this project and universe and not owner of the project or Wikipedia. It helps us to be modest when people don't allow our POV to be incorporated but asking for citations for facts of general knowledge and not prepared to understand the debate is kiddish. I am not sure the voters had cared to go in to my reasoning against Raj Yog.

The '''Three-revert rule''' (or '''3RR''') is an official policy which applies to all [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]s. 3RR violations are reported [[WP:AN3|here]].
*[[User:SatuSuro/Userbox Mania]] -- [[User talk:SatuSuro/Userbox Mania|talk]]
*[[User:Scienter]] -- [[User talk:Scienter|talk]]
The policy states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Wikipedia:Revert|reversions]], '''in whole or in part''', on a single Wikipedia article within a 24 hour period. This does not imply that reverting three times or fewer is acceptable. In excessive cases, people can be blocked for edit warring or disruption even if they do not revert more than three times per day.
*[[User:Scriberius]] -- [[User talk:Scriberius|talk]]
*[[User:SebastianHelm]] -- [[User talk:SebastianHelm|talk]]
[[WP:REVERT|Reverting]], in this context, means '''undoing the actions of another editor or other editors in whole or part'''. It does not necessarily mean taking a previous version from history and editing that. A revert may involve as little as adding or deleting a few words or even one word (or punctuation mark). Even if you are making other changes at the same time, continually undoing other editors' work counts as reverting. "Complex partial reverts" refer to reverts that remove or re-add only some of the disputed material while adding new material at the same time, which is often done in an effort to disguise the reverting. This type of edit counts toward 3RR, regardless of the editor's intention.

I have at least seen your comments once in Hinduism discussion. I understand from your user page that you have knowledge and you have interest in the article. I feel, how has the debate of Raj Yog controversy and removal of branches of Vedas incorporated by me escaped your attention or comment? I also suspect sock puppetry because of RamRamji's comment on the day of joining and his being the only comment. Another reason, some annonymous IP requested some editor to vote. When there were only 2 more editors excluding me in the controversy, who could have done so?

Friend, I did read all of the discussion before voting, and that's why I voted the way I did. I believe that the Gita is one source of Hinduism beliefs. So is Patanjali and others. Raja Yoga deserves to be with the three other yogas for that reason. The article makes it clear that Raja Yoga's main proponenet is Patanjali. Let's be inclusive, just like Hinduism is inclusive.

Please consider taking a coffee break, or editing other articles. Consensus very strongly disagrees with you, and I don't see that changing. Perhaps try editing some less controversal articles to get used to Wikipedia protocols and learning how to cooperate with other editors in coming to a consensus. I've had to learn compromise and cooperation myself, and it can be a difficult process when you must allow an article to include something that you don't believe, but is accepted by the vast majority of people. In that case, there are other websites and forums where you can promote your beliefs. [[User:Priyanath|ॐ Priyanath]] 15:17, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

== Hello ==
Swadhyayee, be '''[[WP:BOLD|BOLD]]'''. If there is something in the article you feel is not right, do not hesitate from making changes to it. But at the same time, if you end up having edit wars, ask for help and suggestion. Right now, the main priority is not to add new material to the article but to improve the quality of the article. Also, try removing relatively irrelevant stuff. For example, merge sections like Puja and Devotional Singing. Also, shorten up the section on Shruti and transfer the material to the main [[Shruti]] article. Also, if possible remove quotations like the one in the "Varna and Caste system" sub-section. They are not very relevant. Since Hinduism is soo diversified and contains several ideas and practices, describe the main points briefly and expand various Hinduism-related articles. This will make it very easy for a reader to get a comprehensive view of Hinduism. Cheers --[[User:Deepak gupta|Incman]]|[[User talk:Deepak gupta|वार्ता]] 05:45, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Swadhyayee. Your edits in the final paragraph of the puja section (about menstruation, death, etc) contained some good ideas. If you wish to put that part back into the article, it's fine.

I think you have a mis understanding here....I am not trying to remove any of the external or content....External links / references only add value to the article..Some sock puppets, vandals and users like you are deleting information [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Swadhyay_Parivar&diff=83305183&oldid=83217253]I don't know you if you are also a supporter of Didi...
I can't understand as to why you are deleting content related to Vinu Sancharia and Pankaj Trivedi.. The content that I had added had reference and notes...
I think this issue needs to be reported to admins....
'''The above comments are un-signed.'''
This is wikipedia. The article has to be neutral and not a platform for venting venom against anyone or wrongfully glorifying any person or organisation. Certainly this forum is not for supporters of Didi or of anti-Didi people. Someone while adding contents remove external links being documentary evidence of wrongs of Swadhyay.
I feel the article should be allowed to remain with caution like controversy and Pankaj Trivedi incident. There may be thousands of things wrong in recent times, if someone try to incorporate every wrong, the article will be ugly and create bad impression of editors and dis-interest viewers.
You may check all my edits and you will come to know that Pankaj Trivedi as well controversy has been incorporated by me. Pl. consider to be contended with some amount of caution. Further adding of wrongs will make the article one sided and defamatory. Such thing will lead to further editors fight and people will remove all cautionary links and glorify Dada, Didi or Swadhyay Parivar.
I have been able to convince the other editors of wrongs of Swadhyay Parivar and so the page is reverted back to my edit the moment someone remove "controversy" and "Pankaj Trivedi" incident.
If someone make the article defamatory and one sided, all the cautionary notes might be removed.

Incidentally I started to take interest in this article after I added information related to Pankaj Trivedi..(This was somewhere in June 06).Later I took a break and came back to only this month to realize that section blanking is happening…and I too started started to add the “controversial” section again and again…

Looking at your contributions I can conclude that you have a lot of information. I believe you have resources to get these article FAC statuses. [[Swadhyay Parivar]] and [[Pandurang Shastri Athavale]].
* [[Wikipedia:What is a featured article?| Wikipedia:What is a featured article?]]
Also do you own any photogrpahs of Shri Pandurang Shastri that can be used in Wikipedia? I tried a lot, but all of them are owned by the Swadhyay Parivar Trust.
If nobody owns them then we can write to them and get the concerened authority’s permission to use it on wikipedia.
Please feel free to let me know if I can be of any help to you.

==Swadhyayee, please discuss changes before making them==
Swadhyayee,
Considering the many past controversies over your edits, would you please be so kind as to discuss them here before incorporating them into the article? As of yesterday, the Hinduism article was of high quality. In my opinion, any changes we make at this point should be carefully considered and discussed with the community so that we don't ruin the good work that many editors have done. I would not say this regarding an article that was in shambles already, but an article of this quality deserves extra care. Thank you. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 12:19, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi Swadhyayee,
I actually like your explanation of sutak as resulting from an inability to concentrate. Logically speaking, that is a better explanation than the conventional explanation of ritual impurity. The only problem is that all the published sources I have looked at explain it as ritual impurity. Can you give a citation for you view? If so, I will support it. As for the satsang section, please leave the wording as edited by Priyanath. His wording was clear and effective. Again, please discuss changes on the discussion page. Thanks![[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 18:58, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi Swadhyayee,
Your eagerness to add to Wikipedia is much appreciated, along with some fresh ideas that you add, but I have a difficult time understanding much of what you write. Perhaps the Hindi language Wikipedia would be better suited for you? It is at: http://hi.wikipedia.org. Right now, there's an effort to bring the [[Hinduism]] article here back to Featured Article status. So it would be especially helpful right now to discuss changes first, and it would also enable you to get some assistance with English grammar and spelling. In both languages, it's very important to use citations and references, especially when adding material that might not be considered the view of the vast majority of people: see [[WP:CITE]]. Thanks, [[User:Priyanath|ॐ Priyanath]] 01:51, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
'''Priyanath''',
I am sorry if you can't understand me but that could be my inability as well inability of reader to understand a particular thing when the reader has exposure to a particular set of reading. Little efforts to understand and I don't think it would be difficult. You can also write to me about clarification of a particular thing. It's said in Hinduism that a Bahushrut is better than well read means well listened is better than well read. I have listened to discourses upon Srimad Bhagwad Geeta and Upanishads for more than 2 decades and also read substantial commentaries in my mother tongue. I don't think, my writing is ever vague and difficult to understand. Thanks for insulting by suggesting me to write in Hindi but Hindi is not my mother tongue. The problem in Hinduism is imposition of wrong connotations which fail to create the due reverence for Hinduism. The references lead to a book-source page and not actual source. I think Hinduism will be a catalog of books than an easily understandable article. I fail to understand the connection between editors using incivility to promote poor beliefs of Hinduism.[[User:Swadhyayee|Swadhyayee]] 02:14, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
Please accept my apologies - my comment about writing in Hindi was not intended as an insult. I think there are many good editors here, with much good advice, for those with ears to hear. Cheers. [[User:Priyanath|ॐ Priyanath]] 02:20, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Hinduism is the founding religion of the [[Dharmic religion]] family. This is one of the most profound influences of Hinduism since Hinduism ''does not'' allow conversion.

==Your comments==
Hi, Swadhayee, My comments is that Mr. HeBhagwan wants to generalize Hinduism, instead of focusing on the many theological differences Hindus have.
I accepted his assertion that karma is merely a law of cause and effect even though the Vedanta school rejects it.
Brahma Sutra 2.1.34: "No partiality and cruelty (can be charged against God) because of (His) taking other factors into consideration."
Sankara's commentary explains that God cannot be charged with partiality or cruelty (i.e. injustice) on account of his taking the factors of virtuous and vicious actions (Karma) performed by an individual in previous lives. If an individual experiences pleasure or pain in this life, it is due to virtuous or vicious action (Karma) done by that individual in a past life.

== Your Message ==
Dear Swadhyayee, thank you for your kind words. I adore the Gita and treasure it in my heart, this book has changed my life. I consider myself a Hindu even if others won't. I have always belived that What defines a man is his actions (or inactions for that matter) not what he says his religion is. If I considered myself a Hindu and did not follow the Dharma that has been established for me I do not see how I could be considered a Hindu. Instead I would be a person who says but does not do. So yes I am technicly in the minds of many not a Hindu due to my birth, but however if I follow the Gita I can be establised as a follower of The Lord. But I must maintain Lord Krishna's teachings if I should be considered such. I hope this makes sense to you and does not seem foolish. May the Lord Bless you.-_[[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">S</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S/EA|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="green" size="4">e</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">adog</font>]] 19:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

==Swadhyayee==
Please accept this olive branch as a token of peace. [[Image:Olivebranch.png]]There is no need for fighting. Let us both work together amicably to maintain a friendly atmosphere on Wikipedia. Let us both try to engage in constructive discussions, maintain Wikipedia quality standards, assume good faith, and just generally relax and have fun. If we can work together in this manner, perhaps we can raise some of the articles in the Hinduism Project to featured article status, like other editors did for the [[Adi Shankara]] article. It is said that a house divided against itself cannot stand. So we ''must'' work together cooperatively, or the Hinduism Project itself will suffer.
As Hindus, whenever we begin to feel hurt or upset, we should try to remember three important words that are repeated throughout the holy Vedas:
#shāntiḥ ("peace")
#shāntiḥ ("peace")
#shāntiḥ ("peace")
Thank you!

Dear friend and fellow Wikipedian,<br>I see that you and HeBhagawan have had some bad run-in's in the past. My feeling for this is that it is something that you and HeBhagawan must work out on your own. There is nothing that I can do in this situation. You must reanounce your arguments in the past and start over with a new light called friendship. This is the only way Wikipedia can work. In my opinion You and HeBhagawan are extremly good editors but have many disagreements with each other. What you must do before making a big change is to talk it over with him, otherwise he will revert it and I don't want you to feel sad. And about your userpage, You have a nice userpage, If you see a wikipedian with a nice userpage please remember that he/she probably copied (such as myself). [[User:Kylu]] copied of of [[User:Master of Puppets]] and I copied of of various userpages. Remember also it is not about how savy the userpage is, it is how good the '''User''' is. If someone has a great userpage but is a terrible editor or vandal it does not matter how great the userpage is. If someone has a below average userpage and is a '''Great''' Wikipedian than the Userpage does not matter. Keep this in Mind Swadyayee. Have a great journey through life and please feel free to call me Arjun.--[[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">S</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S/EA|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="green" size="4">e</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">adog</font>]] 18:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

'''Swadhyayee''',
Thanks for trying to work with me, and for saying that love can win over hate. That is quite true. Thank you for the textual olive branch.
Please don't mind that I reverted the recent edits you made. They reintroduced several mistakes that I went so some effort to fix. I'm sure it was not intentional on your part. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 06:40, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
One other note: This should really go without saying, but of course I don't want to give bad impressions of Hinduism. I am a Hindu myself, and my religion is the most important thing in the world to me. So I think we have the same goals for the most part. You need not fear that I will try to discredit Hinduism or anything.
Note 2: I agree with Priya that the Hinduism page does not really need much work at this point. However, many other pages in the Hinduism project do. Why don't we start afresh and work on one of the other pages in the project together? Some of them are in desperate need of clean-up.
[[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 06:56, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
How about "special area?" I am trying to use as few words as possible while still conveying the proper meaning. I'm not sure that "special" is needed, since it seems obvious that if the area is used for a deity it is special--but if it would make you happy, we can say "special area." All things being equal, fewer words is better. I will respond to your comments about monasticism later. Thank you for your feedback on that. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 07:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for your kind comments on monasticism. What is the more reverential word for "beg?" I would use it if there was one, but I don't think English (or Hindi, for that matter) has one. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 07:09, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
== Copy of reply to Priyanath ==
You may be right Priyanath that HeBhagawan & Apandey may not be sockpuppets but my allegations are not baseless. I have checked the pattern. Pl. don't think of me to go so low to accuse baseless. Yes, it could turn out to be mere co-incindence. See the volatile outbursts of Apandey. Without any contribution of Apandey, why should he be boiling?
See the comment of RamRamji, his time of registration [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=RamRamji]] and his reverting of my edits and providing citations [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hinduism&diff=prev&oldid=80069478]] and vanishing for ever.
Isn't it sock-puppetry? If sock-puppetry is used in a discussion, why would it not be used for voting? Why such un-ethical means against a new editor like me? Isn't it trying to monopolise the article against the policy of Wikipedia and a free software?
In Wikipedia, we will go and next generations will come. Articles will keep on changing and adding up. No one can bring an end to the change in the article any day nor so is intention of Wikipedia Foundation. If, you give credit to HeBhagawan, there may be number of other editors who would have worked on this article earlier. I am seeing origination as back as 2003 or 2004. I have no idea what was the shape of this article but the disagreements and debates have been feature of this article. While you are doing justice to HeBhagawan for bringing the article to present stage, you might be doing injustice to new editors by preventing further edits. Who knows if not me, any other editor may contribute far more better. If, I am putting the energy of making or improving of an article, I am doing it for my job satisfaction. I should be grateful to this free software and accept the rights of others to edit my work. I do have regards for HeBhagawan but we have to bit put weight on our emotions to safeguard the principles of free software.
I am sorry, at this moment, I am not possessing your politeness nor I think that the language of article give excellent connotations of Hinduism and there is no scope of improvement. The day I share your feelings, I shall have the politeness you have today.
I assure you, I have no intention to spoil the article and it shall not happen so but the present contributors have be open to see some better things in other's edits.
My mind is in three things 1) Improving connotations 2) Safeguarding principles of free software and 3) Making editors to be free from possessiveness.
Hope you will appreciate my truthful and frank views.

So it would not be appropriate to screen out editors based on their personal backgrounds. Suggested edits must be based on the merits of the edits themselves; not on the identity of the editor.
==Hmm==
Your user page says "Some worst enemies of yours are destined to be your best friends so fight with them till they be your friends." Are you sure that is the most effective way to make friends? I've had pretty good luck with the approach of just being nice. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 18:02, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
==Begging==
Well, In Hindi also "bhīkh māngnā" is used both for sadhus and ordinary beggars. So I don't think it really has a negative connotation--that's just the way people say it. I'm not sure what you were trying to say about fake sadhus--I never suggested talking about them in the article. But in order to compromise, what do you think about this: <blockquote>"It is considered a highly meritorious act for a lay devotee to provide sadhus with food or other necessaries." That would avoid the word begging, although I don't see anything shameful about it.</blockquote>

== Re:Could I please know how I can find out about a wikipedian being admin or not? ==
Sorry for my delayed response. I forgot to put my status as "Offline". Anyway, in regards to your question, you can find out if a person is an administrator usually by taking a look at their userpage. They usually have a userbox or some text that states they are admin. There some admins who don't do this, so the next thing to do is to go the user contributions and check out their logs. If they have deleted, blocked, or protected anything, then you know they are an admin.
An admin can't really "hide" their edits from other normal editors, but they can delete selected edits. I don't think an admin could remove an "intralink" without having some trail left behind.

Sorry to Chairboy, Nearly Headless Nick & Deskana.
Could you tell me what will be your reactions, if, I falsely level much derogatory remark about your religion or your country? I think, no human being can tolerate this and go violent and mad. What did I do to deserve 15 minutes ban? What action did you take against terryJ-HO for grossly irresponsible insults he hurled against our country and my religion? Does he have any study of my country's social system or my religion? What I did was spreading the un-becoming conduct of terryJ-HO to Indian editors. Did I make any in-civil comments? I exhibited extreme restraint in answering gross irresponsible comments against my religion or country. Wars take birth when you pass irresponsible comments against anyone's religion. What did I do? I simply put a message using copy paste mode to Indian editors to answer terryJ-HO. May I ask whether you used judicious mind to revert all messages from talk pages of Indian editors or you simply used your buttons without application of mind?
[[User:Swadhyayee|Swadhyayee]] 16:03, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

'''Thanks Arjun''',
For letting me know that I can edit this page. I am blocked by deskana for a week. This is definitely un-deserving and harsh use of buttons without application of mind. I have requested him through e-mail and informed that I will not spam. I am certainly not going to beg for lifting my block. There is no positive response till now from deskana. I tried to place the matter for arbitration but I am not able to use the function as I am blocked. There is no e-mail facility. I tried to contact dmc.. as I believe he is arbitrator but I could not locate any e-mail mode. I think, all the admins are not having e-mail facility. I have faith in dmc... on whose talk page terryJ-HO put non-sense against my religion and country. I shall appeal to all sensitive Wikipedians to bring it to the notice of all in chair of Wikipedia about the over use of buttons by deskana and reverting my message on talk pages of all. Dmc.. objected and his message was restored or he himself retrieved the message and allowed to continue on his talkpage which was again shamelessly replied by terryJ-HO. Though my message could have not been signed but did bear my sign in my original message to dmc... I sent messages to only Indian editors for which a 15 min. block was imposed by someone. Deskana issued warning for indefinite block. While the block was lifted, what I did was to send a short message of deskana having reverted my message to few prominent Indian editors or admins. These messages were signed. Thanks for the concern and pl. request Dmc... to check this message on my talk page and consider to help in lifting block immediately.

Swadhyayee,
I look forward to working with you again after you are unblocked. I was very happy that we were able to work in a more cooperative and friendly way for the past few days.
I only have one suggestion: when you are dealing with people like Terry, don't get so upset. There are a lot of people on wikipedia with POV opinions. If you become angry every time such a person shows up, then, well, you will probably be angry all the time. There is no need to turn every disagreement into the battle of Kurukshetra. Just be calm and reasonable, and follow Wikipedia policies, which are really very good policies. If you are reasonable and another person is unreasonable, the community will support you.

I have not spammed. I am the one, who believe in discipline and upholding the policy of platform which I am using. I appeal that everyone view the deliberate scandalous comments of terryJ-HO on talk page of Dmcdevit followed by a shameless reply. To me, Wikipedia is important, so important is pride of my country, religion, country-men and our women folks who preferred death over surrenderig to Muslim invaders for their (Muslim males) sexual gratifications. It was matter of remaining faithful to one's husband and shame of Muslim invaders for moral-less treatment of Indian women. Contrary to the practice of Muslim invaders, our Great Shivaji Maharaj declared a Muslim beautiful woman broght to him by his subordinates to be his (Shivaji's) sister and sent her back with full respect and honour. I am proud of Indian and Hindu blood gushing through our arteries. I shall invite death, forget about ban for a week but I am sure that the action of Deksana is sheer abuse of administrative powers. If, my block is not removed earlier, I will feel it a matter of shame of administrative community that one of them is able to abuse administrative powers.
I am the last man to do something knowingly against the policy of Wikipedia but I shall not beg for mercy of Deksana who I consider to be lacking of fine judgement necessary for an administrator.
I have just put message of one line to 7 to 8 Indian Wikipedians about Deksana having removed my message on their talk page. My ban is for this reason. What is spam? Putting one line message on talk page of 7 to 8 Indian Wikipedians? What is the basis of 1 week ban? If it could be few hours or a day, I could understand the reasonability.
I appeal to anyone with sense of justice to assess the ability of Deksana to impose 1 week ban for placing message on known 7 to 8 Indian Wikipedians. I further appeal to the Indian Wikipedians to put a message on my talk page that they do not mind receiving messages from me.
I request to provide me feedback about earlier wrong judgements of Deksana.
I have the intention to make appeal to people above administrators to rule the propriety of administrator Deksana's decision of 1 week ban.

The Wikipedia community has come to the consensus that talk page spamming isn't acceptable - see [[WP:SPAM]]. There are procedures set up to help resolve disputes - you are welcome to use those. Again, if you will agree not to spam talk pages and to use other avenues for your concerns, you will be unblocked.

Let me first thank you Shell_Kinney for your interest in my problem and sympathies. I accept your decision but let me make it clear that my message does not say that I will be spamming further. I just want to know how many posts constitute a spam? 1, 2, 5, 10, 50 or 100? I have seen blocking of strangerinparadise. I don't know his offence but he was blocked for a week. Even in criminal laws, crime consequential to provocation has less penal actions. Here, terryJ-HO has provocated any viewer enough. I have sent an e-mail to Deksana to un-block me and there is no response from him. I am sorry, I will ask for fairness not mercy. I am just asking for fairness which is declined and accept the decision with clarification that I have not said, I will continue to spam. If, my language make you perceive so, I am sorry and helpless. I thank you once again for your interest, consideration and sympathies.
I would like to mention that there is a policy for treatment to new Wikipedia editors backed by a view that such new editors could be very good contributors to Wikipedia. Any one can check I am in Wikipedia less than two months and also check my contributions.

:If you read the applicable guideline on [[WP:SPAM|canvassing]] it can be any number of talk pages, the key is whether or not the editing is disruptive. Posting the same message to many talk pages in an attempt to influence a dispute is generally considered extremely disruptive.

You can moan about how it's an abuse of administrative powers all you like, I have heard it all before. If you had bothered to read what I had typed above, you will see from the outset that the intention of the one week block was to stop you from editing until such a time that you agreed to stop spamming, at which point I would lift the block. Unfortunately you sent the e-mail to me at a time when I was unavailable and as such could not unblock you. I am fine with the fact that you have been unblocked since you agreed not to spam.

'''Thanks for your warm message'''. I felt your imposing ban for a week was harsh and un-needed. I wished that simultaneously you should have taken in account the provocation and my civil messages. With great deal of restraint, I sent civil messages to terryJ-HO and others.
I had no intention to spam or send annonymous messages. I don't think there could be any policy which could permit Wikipedia to be used for scandalous purpose. Let's each one of us be enough sensitive to safeguard the honour of any country and religion to spread peace and harmony amonst us through out the world. Our object should be broader. If you would have banned me for a month and simultaneously taken action against terryJ-HO for his scandalous comments on talk page of Dmcdevit, I would have seen you to be most just. Do you not have the powers to block a person like terryJ-HO who deliberately posts utterly false and derogatory comments?
TerryJ-Ho's comments were deliberate and followed by further similar comments.
Pl. bear with me for my frank views. Pl. put yourself on otherside of fence and imagine what would I have felt when your action amounted to support terryJ-HO. Your block for 2 hrs. should have been sufficient. Max block recommended is 24 hours. Particularly, when you were not likely to be available, why did you block me for a week? Wished that you would have taken in account my day of registration.
Hope it was a lesson for both of us. [[User:Swadhyayee|swadhyayee]] 11:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

I believe caste is akin to the [[serf]] system in europe, the [[peasant]] system in China, and systems in Japan which are [[secular]] in nature. As in other places, people used religion to legitimize it (and I myself am a beneficiary, see [[Iyer]]). I dont believe its integral to Hinduism and doesnt need to be discussed.[[User:Bakasuprman|Bakaman]] <font color = "blue"><sub>[[User talk:Bakasuprman|Bakatalk]]</sub></font> 05:26, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
== Hinduism discussion ==
For a couple of days I have a lot of homework and research work, so might not be able to participate in the discussion till then. [[User:Magicalsaumy|Cygnus_hansa]] 07:01, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Swadhyee, can you tell me your point of view so I can respond? I was not sure after looking at all the discussions.
Thanks.
[[User:Raj2004|Raj2004]] 10:39, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Dear Swadhyayee,
I still don't understand exactly what you want the section on caste to look like. You have made some general suggestions, but it's not clear how exactly you would like to implement them. It is not enough to say you don't like something; you need to propose an alternative wording.
So far, Priyanath, Arjun, and myself have indicated that we would like the section on caste to include both views. As far as I understand, you do not want to get rid of the section altogether, but you wish to present only one of the views. ShaivaSuj and Bhaskar would like to include only a brief mention of caste, and move the rest to another article. But it is not clear what they would like such a brief mention to look like. Therefore I asked people make specific suggestions. Please remember that I'm not trying to work against you. We have the same goal. We want a good article. Part of the process is discussing ideas and alternatives. Please continue to work as a team in a friendly manner. Please don't approach it in a fighting manner, let's just have a mature adult discussion so we can understand everybody's views. I will try to be friendly and civil myself as well. Thanks.

Dear Swadhyayee,
I just want to tell you that I am doing my best to work with everybody on the Hinduism discussion in good faith. I feel like many of your comments are angry in tone. I hope you will understand that everybody is doing their best, and that you will try to treat them accordingly. I may disagree with you on some editing decisions, and you may disagree with me, but we just have to try our best to work cooperatively. Peace is good. Anger and insults are bad. Take the good. Leave the bad. This is the meaning of ''viveka''. Thank you. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 23:23, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
'''Re: Your message on the Hinduism discussion page''':
Since you addressed your message especially to me, I will reply here. I'm not sure what you are trying to say. I understand that you are not happy with the voting, but I'm not sure what your alternative proposal is, or even if you are trying to make one. Also, I'm sorry if you are feeling angry. Like I said above, I'm making a good faith effort to be kind to everybody, including you. I'm sure I have room for improvement, but I'm trying. All I ask is that you do the same. Thanks. If you would like to restate your message from the Hinduism discussion page more clearly, I will try to understand what you are saying. [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 04:41, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
== 203.115.120.3 and Hindusim Article ==
Hi there
With respect the revert of 203.115.120.3 is fair but you should not have labelled it as vandalism "sorry this is treated as vandal", as this user looks like they were trying to help. If this is new user then it will put them off contributing again - go softly. E.g. you could have said "reverted (explain what rv is too for new user) edit, inappropriate information already covered removed".
With respect [[User:Lethaniol|Lethaniol]] 12:12, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
:True most vandalism is by IP addresses, but you should also know that the majority of editing of Wikipedia is done by IP addresses. In this instance it was not blatant obvious vandalism - it was actually adding something that is relevant to Hinduism if not exactly right/in the right place. I am just suggesting you go easy on the IPs. Obviously you can be a bit harsher on IPs that add only "F$%^ You" style of remarks, but even then we should try and encourage them to contribute helpfully.
With respect [[User:Lethaniol|Lethaniol]] 15:57, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

== Dear Friend ==
I understand, you have never dis-pleasured me or made me upset. In fact just the opposite. All I ask of you is when editing think of the world and think if what you do will help teach the religion of Hinduism in the correct and truthful way. Also I did not earn the name Arjun01 probably because I have too many edits 2000+ to be exact. If you need any help please feel free to contact me. I am however going to start replying on my talk page, due to the fact that the load of comments and questions are getting bigger. So from now on I suggest you monitor my talk page until you get response. Thank you for you time.--<sup>[[User:Seadog.M.S|ॐ]]</sup> [[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">S</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S/EA|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="green" size="4">e</font>]][[User:Seadog.M.S|<font face="Old English Text MT" color="darkblue" size="4">adog</font>]] [[User talk:Seadog.M.S|<sup>ॐ</sup>]] 02:55, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
'''Well''', I don't know, how much I can teach but I want to prevent some mis-conceptions generating in minds of foregners or deepening in the minds of Hindus. It's well accepted that Geeta is authentic. It is also said that what is not in Geeta is useless. In any study or discussion, the two or more views would be presented, discussed and clarification is provided at the end. The study of which takes one's life and yet it could not be over. For a particular study, you have to attain a standard. Which does not exist in everyone but very few. To me, important is rational of Hinduism over different views which could be just for discussion. I have no academic study but I think I know lot many things beyond a layman would know. Further it does not take me a second or minute to understand any logic placed forward against my belief. Like GaurangUK opined for "beyond gender" and "genderless". I may not totally agree with him but I can appreciate his reasons. It took me just one second to say "Ok".

==Whos the Boss?==
Your funny message! Thanks. Look like whats going on. Even worse than the Islam articles! Might have to go over to Balkan conflicts to relax. Whos the boss Bakaman or HeBhagwan?[[User:Opiner|Opiner]] 03:05, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Yeah Baka just help me by saying something reasonable on discussing.[[User:Opiner|Opiner]] 03:10, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
==Why would you want to?==
Hi Swadhyayee,
On the Hinduism talk page you asked:
<blockquote>I am just interested to know whether there is any tool in Wikipedia to find out who read a particular article and for what time duration? swadhyayee 02:24, 10 November 2006 (UTC)</blockquote>
I don't think there is any such tool. But why would you want this anyway? It sounds like a tool for stalkers! Wouldn't your time on Wikipedia be better spent making contributions to articles and discussions?[[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 15:56, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
What's the objection? [[User:Swadhyayee|swadhyayee]] 16:42, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
You are asking what objection I have to stalking? [[User:HeBhagawan|HeBhagawan]] 19:53, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Not necessarily it has to be stalking. It could be other purpose also. Anyway, if there is a tool and I want to check, it becomes my personal thing if it fits in Wikipedia policy. [[User:Swadhyayee|swadhyayee]] 20:37, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
:There is no such tool. Nor should there be. It's against the privacy policy. Such information is only revealed with the permission of the person in question or to combat vandalism or place other such blocks. Aside from that, there's no tool anyway. --[[User:Deskana|Lord Deskana]] <small>[[User talk:Deskana|(swiftmend!)]]</small> 21:11, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
==NinaEliza's Response==
You posted a message on my talk page that said, in part, that I had commented on the Hinduism article in it's talk page. In fact, I have not posted a comment on Hinduism's talk page, though I was invited to do so. I don't know how you would even get my user name. That disturbs me a little.
I didn't make a comment on the current controversy about the Caste section because I simply don't know enough about Hinduism. However, I would like to point out that most Westerners (or at least Americans) know little or nothing about Hinduism EXCEPT for caste. The article on Hindiusm as it stands now is extremely informative. It also shows Hinduism in an extremely good light compared to the common Western view of the religion. The two paragraphs that you are trying to delete actually go a long way towards explaining the difference between caste as it relates towards Hinduism versus caste in Indian society. If you leave them out, it will only perpetuate the belief that Hinduism oppresses people through caste. Please reconsider your desire to leave them out.
Sincerely, [[User:NinzEliza|NinzEliza]] 05:14, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
== Advocate accept ==
Hi. I'll be your advocate for the dispute regarding article [[Hinduism]] and its talk page.
I've skimmed through the talk page, and also this talk page. It has become lengthy and I can't get a grasp of what you need assistance with. I'd appreciate if you sent me a message or [[Special:Emailuser/Fred_Chess|emailed me]].
In general though I could advice you that well sourced statements are usually accepted in articles, so strive for that.

Welcome, Swadhyayee, to [[Wikipedia:Esperanza|Esperanza]]! As you might know, all the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members|Esperanzians]] share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Charter|Charter]], the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member you should read the [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/So you've joined Esperanza...|guide to what to do now]] or you may be interested in some of our [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Programs|programs]]. A quite important program is [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Stressbusters|Stressbusters]], which seeks to support [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Alerts|editors who have encountered any stress]] from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Calendar|calendar]] of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/Proposals|Esperanza/Proposals]].
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact our [[WP:ESP/G|administrator general]] [[User:Natalya|Natalya]] by [[Special:Emailuser/Natalya|email]] or [[User talk:Natalya|talk page]]. Consider introducing yourself at the [[Wikipedia talk:Esperanza|Esperanza talk page]]! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, [irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-esperanza #wikipedia-esperanza] (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an [[Wikipedia:IRC tutorial|IRC tutorial]]. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!
