@Tezz @TheDestroyer @Rickross @RohitSinghRathore @RakeshJoshi I just posted a question regarding Kashmiri Shaivism:
0
Q: What scriptures describes Durvasa having three sons who promulgated Agamas?

Keshav SrinivasanGenerally, Vaishnavas follow the Pancharatra Agamas, Shaivites follow the Shaiva Agamas, and Shaktas follow the Shaiva Agamas. But long ago, there was a group of people in Kashmir who followed the Shakta Agamas but adopted Shiva as their Ishta Devata. That group evolved into what we now call Kash...

@KeshavSrinivasan Oh ok nice!... btw do you have English translation of TantraLoka...?..
 
Keshav Srinivasan
Keshav Srinivasan
@Tezz No, not a full one, just various parts from different sources.
@Tezz There are complete English translations of the Tantraloka available in print form, but I haven't found any online versions.
@Tezz This PDF at least translates the first few verses of each chapter of the Tantraloka: s3.amazonaws.com/academia.edu.documents/37168726/…
 
Tezz
Tezz
@KeshavSrinivasan Oh ok... I'm also searching for English translation of Tantraloka... at least is it avaliable in Sanskrit?...
@KeshavSrinivasan that link doesn't open... it says:

@Tezz You're welcome. By the way, did you see my Purva Mimamsa Sutras question?
0
Q: What arguments did Shabara's Mimamsa Sutra Bhashya take from the Brahma Sutras?

Keshav SrinivasanAs I discuss in this question, by far the most popular school of Hindu philosophy is the Vedanta school, which bases its tenets on the doctrines laid out in the Brahma Sutras, a work by the sage Vyasa that summarizes and systematizes the philosophical teachings of the Upanishads. You can read the...

Has anyone heard of Mos eisley and the issue going on? @KeshavSrinivasan @Pandya @TheDestroyer
 
Pandya
Pandya

Sree Charan
Sree Charan
@Pandya Mos eisley is the primary chatroom of Scifi and fantasy.SE. It is one of the active rooms of SE. It has been suspended bu Shog9.
MOD-RAGE.
The transcript of the room is made unavailable for the users under overall 10k reputation. @Pandya
 
Pandya

6:48 AM
@SreeCharan oh! Yes, I know that Shog has discussed with mods of sifi regarding sifi chat room (but I don't know the name Mos eisely)
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
@Pandya Every site I know has its unique name for the primary chat room except us.
Why did you remove? @Pandya
 
Pandya
Pandya
@SreeCharan It has become outdated when you edited the message which I replied to.
 
SwiftPushkar
SwiftPushkar
@SreeCharan - I think being religious site , Hinduism is the most suitable Name , for our primary chat room :)
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
Even mods are afraid to unfreeze the room because it was a CM who has frozen the room. @Pandya
@SwiftPushkar The name of Christianity primary room is Upper room. That has some importance in their religion.

Q: My apologies. Mos Eisley closure

ValorumDuring a conversation on chat yesterday I used words and phrases that resulted in a chat flag. This resulted in my receiving a(nother) chat-ban and the suspension of the Mos Eisley chatroom. I'd like to offer my apologies to the site's users. It was not my intention to cause offence. In hindsi...

@SreeCharan - how about word MOksha in the name .. Moksha Mandir etc. I am not sure though :)
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
@SwiftPushkar Don't know but I am looking for a word Vedika which is an equivalent for room.
@Ankitsharma Ping Do you want to participate here?
 
SwiftPushkar
SwiftPushkar

Tezz
Tezz
@KeshavSrinivasan Oh ok.. I just read it completely... actually I opened the link yesterday... but didn't completely read yesterday as I was busy talking here..
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
@SwiftPushkar People might take mandir as temple more than a room. Some might oppose saying we are preaching Hinduism.
 
Pandya
Pandya
@SreeCharan Btw, we already have "Vedanta & Philosophy", the successful room!
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
7:05 AM
@Pandya But the primary room has its importance.
I also feel this discussion should take place there. @Pandya

Q: What should our chatroom name be?

Ankit SharmaCurrently, our main chatroom name is "Hinduism". Are we going to stick with it? If not, what should we change it to? Note: Feel free to add your chatroom name suggestions as answers.

@Pandya @SreeCharan But word "Vedanta" in this name is not liked by someone or misinterpreted. We actually talk all stuff here but name implies we are "gang of Vedanta"
 
SwiftPushkar
SwiftPushkar
@SreeCharan - yes , but School's , collages , study centers are also named as a mandir - Like we say Vidya Mandir :)
 
Sree Charan
Sree Charan
@SwiftPushkar They take it Mandir as in "Mandir ya Masjid" more.
 
Pandya
Pandya
