Re: Is this list serving any purpose?

From the Bhakti List Archives

Dear ShrI Mani & BhagavatOttamAs:

I think the sv-ritual sub-group is very well used.  Now coming to the 
bhakti-list, I do not think its scope and subject matter is directly 
competing with other lists.  I can only trace the lack of contribution to 
the following.   Basically, we are overwhelmed with information.  Added to 
that there are tele-lectures, innumerable web-sites, Tele-stOtra classes and 
so on and so forth.  These things unfortunately leave little time for any 
worthwhile contribution to the bhakti-list that requires deep and sincere 
study on the part of the contributor.  As is always the case in all walks of 
life, this of course does not apply to some of the gifted members whose 
contributions we continue to enjoy.

Also in a lighter vein, Adiyen mentioned sometime ago that with all the new 
rules the Bhakti list has become like a public television station.

One way of generating healthy and lively discussions would be to re-post 
some of the good articles from the archives that the moderator would 
consider worthwhile revisiting.
