Dear friends, I too would like to wholeheartedly express appreciation for Sri.Mani Varadarajan's novel and hi-tech way of doing 'kainkaryam' to SriVaishnvaism through his "bhakti-list". It is a list that brings minds together from far and wide into a forum where anybody, even "neophytes" (to use the term of one correspondent), can speak his/her mind on our 'siddhantha' without fear or inhibition. It is a forum for genuine and continuous "distance-learning" for all lay-people who unfortunately do not have access to other traditional modes of acquiring acquaintance with SriVaishnavism. I cannot think of a more creative way in which the modern invention of the "inter-net" could be put to use as Sri.Mani is doing to propagate and nurture SriSampradayam, the truths of its ancient texts, the memory of its great and past "achAryA-s" and the august presence of its present ones. Thank you, Sri.Mani. sudarshan
