I should have said this at the beginning.
"WELCOME SRI RAMAKRISHNA SANKAR - WELCOME TO TELUSA"
---------------------------------------------------
(Someone should have introduced him.)
(Please do that now atleast. Not too late now)
Before it is noon, I would like to release this message.
Thanks for the reply and your initial message.
I also saw Sri Jampala's original on this thread and his
subsequent reply.
These below lines are not advices but my requests only.
(1) "piccuka miida brahma'strama" - You stated in reply to my reply.
No one is a piccuka here or no geddalu here.
All are equals. Degrees of comparison do not exist here among
us.
greddalalO greddalamai
piccukalalO piccukalamai
picciga' kootalEdda'm
peccurEguda'm ii maida'namlO manam!
(2) "miibOTiva'ru.." - You put me on the "mulagaceTTu".
Sri Shankar! I am not superior. I just said what I wanted
to say. I don't take it back and I can not take it back.
That is why this forum exists. I don't want to put on a
show here. No popularity scores!
(3) "Sorry if I hurt someone's feelings" - like that you stated.
You have n't wounded my feelings.
"kshanikamaina ii jiivitamlO Edii Sa'svatam ka'du,
Edii na'di ka'du!". I personally have no prejudices.
What you said is said and done. You were not using
any derogatory statements. You did not put down any TELUSAer.
As long as nobody puts down the co-TELUSAer, it is fine.
Feelings! What for? Is Sri Viswanatha my grandfather?
or Smt. Vemkamamba my aunt? or Sri Jashuva my uncle?
or Sri Chinnayasoori my tata? I don't know their personal
lives and I care a zilch while I discuss their literary
works.
(4) Exercise your freedom of speech!
Freedom of speech does not mean insanity!
That's all I can say.
Keep doing what you are doing. I like that. It gives me and
other like-minded people food for thought.
(5) No inhibitions! Say it! Then only we can argue rationally.
We will try to grow up. We got to keep moving.
With out negative and positive charges, atoms do not
exist. With out north and south poles, there is no
magnetic force. With out night, there will not be a day!

Keep up the good work! I will say what I want to say.
You say what you want to say! Don't feel bad, please!
This is everybody's playground. Without one's knowledge,
the player is rough sometimes. Sportsmanship is
critical here. Let us play the game. There are no winners
here. PARTICIPATION IS MORE THAN WINNING.
Remember our famous "palana'Ti ga'dha"
"geluvaniva'ru bayaTanEDturu
gelicinava'rimTanEdturu"
Both the winners and losers cry either way. Both are losers
in one way or the other. Both are winners in one way or the
other. Losers win by satisfying that they faught for their
principle. Winners win by satisfying their egos. Everything
is relative!
Tastes are personal just like relegion. Tates are also relative.
I can not impose my likes and dislikes on you and vice-versa.
I learn something from what you dislike and like. That is how
I conquer my ignorance. Thanks for expressing your opinions.
Keep doing it! That is a healthy sign especially for TELUSA.
One small comment! "ugranarasimhamoorty.." - something like that
you addressed me. I agree! I sound like that. The name fits me
exactly. My name is a roung peg in a round hole. I admit!
I sound like I was angry or emotional! That is not true! What did
you do to me so that I got mad? Nothing! Again I reiterate -
none of these names we talk about are either my kith and kin or
did do any harm to me or my immediate family. I try to look at both
sides of the coin. As a human, sometimes I prefer one side more to
the other. That's all!
Keep up what you are doing! That creates some brain storms in me.
Write what you feel the best! Keep moving! Welcome!

P.S. I have to come back to your comments on some modern kavitvam
later. I have n't forgotten.
