Om

Yes the picture has long a story, and a funny one too. The picture was taken recently during an inauguration of a Vedic Bhavan in small village in Mauritius.
The land on which stands a magnificent building was a donation of 80 years old twin brothers. It was a dream to them to see the complete Bhavan ere the call... So the Bhavan was completed in a staggering 14 months only.

I am a member of the Mauritius Arya Ravi Ved Pracharini Sabha. For those familiar with our Bhasha its main aim is Ved Pracharr.

I am very happy to join this forum and hope to bring as much as i can to the many debates going on here with my (you will notice) progressive ideas.
Swami Dayanand kindle a flame in our hearts and it is our mission, indeed our dharm, to make it stronger.

We are all here talking to each other in this group. But about the OTHERS, those who are suffering, not just of poverty,famine,war but corruption of the mind also. Corrupted by creed, corrupted by hatred, Corrupted by over sized egos.
[/b]

Does the solution lie in having these debates like here? I believe yes.

Satyaarth Prakash, literally means True Light, so should we be content by just bathing in this magnificent light?Should we not try our best to give everybody the opportunity to do it?

Very very happy to be joining this magnificent forum.
Vipin Raj(which sanskrit conversant people will find very funny for a name)

Om shanti. [/code]

Namaste Vipin Ji,

Well, progressive ideas are certainly welcome here! Very Happy I think I speak for all of us when I say we are always willing to discuss things with a view towards discovering truth and helping our fellow man.

I have read that there was a kind of split in the Samaj community of Mauritius some time ago resulting in the Arya Ravi Ved Pracharini Sabha (or Ravi Veds) and the Rajput Gahlot Maha Sabha. Can you tell us more about it? (If you like, you could also start a new topic about it. I'll leave it up to you.) Also, what are the main differences - if any - between the two? Any information would be welcome.

Also, I would like to mention that we are always on the look-out for experienced Pandits to join our discussions and give some educated insight into the topics under review. In addition to yourself, we welcome anyone you may know from Mauritius who would be willing to guide us in the right direction where necessary.

Once again, welcome. I suspect you will quickly become a cherished member of our online community. Wink

namaste

Namaste Vipin,

It's inspiring to learn of other Arya Samaj activites acround the world. Thanks for sharing that with us.

As Shish mentioned, and if you don't mind, can you tell us a little more about the Mauritius Arya Ravi Ved Pracharini Sabha?..

We are glad to have you aboard Arya Bandhu, and we hope you will share with us whatever you can, especially your progessive ideas. We are always willing to learn new things on the forum.

By the way, bhaiji, what does your name mean?..

Namaste everybody....
By the way I like how you guys greet people around here. Namaste is not just a greeting like bonjour or good morning , it is a mark of respect as well, heard that somewhere once.

No I'm not Leo, I was born in January, and i guess I'm not wise either. Wisdom is proportional to age and knowledge and I'm just 18 with a High School degree.

The MARVPS aims at organizing various Vedic activities around Mauritius. The Maitri Sabha is in Port-Louis. There 18 members in the managing committee and they are elected democratically by the Ravi Ved family.
The list of the activities of the MARVPS is very long, I'll give it to you later.

The split is only political not ideological. It has something to do with the number of members in the parliament we get.
I am not definitely an experienced pandit, my father does it as a 4th Job.

Acharya Sunil Ji OSK(distinction awarded by the government) is a Phd in Vedic Philosophy. I will tell him about the forum.
Smile

Namaste VipinRaj Ji

I asked whether you are a Leo as I thought your name means Lord of the Jungle? Just wanted to know if that is what it means.
