If you join, you have in effect given your word to honour this intention and the following guidelines. Please remember that if in your reply you quote material from another member's post, that your comments are the larger. Do not include the entire original to which you are replying. Members agree to refrain from any form of coercion or evangelism, be it in the name of Sri Sathya Sai Baba or any other entity, Person or organization. No single individual's form of devotion, insight, or effort is to be sleighted, but none is to be touted as supreme either.
Members gladly refrain from arguing one's point to the degree it assaults other's viewpoints.
Here, one must be clear that the members of Sandeha Nivarini honestly agree to discuss the teachings of Sri Sathya Sai Baba, but are not striving to change or convert one another's views. Should you read a comment from a member that terribly upsets you and you feel you must respond, wait 48 hours. Then if you still feel you absolutely must write, instead address your comments ONLY to that member and the Adminsevaks. Postings should be the minimum length to communicate clearly. Short postings require the writer to condense one's thoughts and so can be more easily comprehended and reflected upon.
