Keeping Tala in Violin

[Tamizhisai]

Dear Elder Brother Akellaji,

Again and again you are parroting what irks most members. In the midst of people who value the aroma of filter coffee, your instant coffee cannot be easily made acceptable.

As long as you have the mods to shield you, you will not mend yourself.

East is east and west is west and the twain shall never meet.

We are not shielding Sarmaji but only letting him express his views freely. The same freedom is available to you. We do not nor are we capable of verifying his claims which he has every right to hold and propagate. If you accept his challenge you can present your experimental evidence and debate the issue freely. If you simply engage in a verbal duel we will not step in as long as the language and contents are not offensive. You are wasting our time asking us to intervene when he claims that he is the 'best' teacher based on his knowledge and experience. We are not here to verify and authenticate 'facts'. You can make similar claims if you have the credentials and face the onslaught of criticism from other members but expect no protection from us since that is not our mandate. Our job is to maintain smooth operation of the Forum in accordance with the rules without fear or favour towards any of our valuable members.

Dear brother-member, Tamizhisai, No, dear. Being unable to bring an efficient, honest and reliable music-teacher along with his/her best disciple to be tested by me you only are feeling irksome but not others at all.

Fortunately the mods are thinking peacefully and rationally to soften and keep the environment amiable to one and all of this forum as responsible persons unlike us. They are neither my friends nor colleagues nor relatives to do so and moreover, except one, I did not even see the others of them. Then there must be some genuine reason to shield me. Please ask them about it and do the needful. At any cost, we both must cooperate with them possibly in every manner. I hereby promise them that I shall certainly do whatever they tell to save the prestige of this forum. You also do the same to minimise their tensions as responsible persons and proceed to bring the teacher. Wishing you all the best, amsharma

I won't stand in the way of people living in a illusory world. Let him not generalize. I'm just asking the mods to put an end to that. Period.

I don't expect any other support from the mods.

I have close rapport with few disciples of the names I quoted in this thread. They don't consider Akella great enough to test their skills.

Let me just state for the record, reiterating what has already been said, there is no protection for anyone since such a concept itself does not exist. And we can not mandate to Akellaji to generalize or not generalize. He generalized, you took exception to it, he responded, you responded.. that is how it goes. I will only say to Akellaji that characterizing other teachers ( as cheaters or whatever even if it includes calling yourself one in the past ) is not necessary for your objective. You or I do not know what is in the minds and hearts of other teachers. So in that sense, generalizing without providing an exception is an untenable position and unnecessarily distracts from your main objective.

Alright, that brings it to a logical conclusion We can move on if all the parties agree.

Dear brother-member, vasnthakokilam, I fully agree with you, dear. As you wrote, we do not know what is in the minds and hearts of all other music-teachers, yes. To tell the truth, I never intend to characterize any of the respectable-music-teachers among which I am also one of them and I have no business or right to do so. But my intention, particularly in doing so, is only to attract, but not at all to distract, their kind attention towards the damage already done by following the useless traditional method of teaching which is only useful not only to unnecessarily and unreasonably elongate the valuable process of teaching but also very sadly and unjustifiably facilitates to escape from the sacred responsibility of inculcating the highly required knowledge of Manodharma in the innocent and ignorant kids and also to make them realise to follow this modern method of teaching not only in quickening the valuable process of teaching or learning by saving their invaluable time, energy and money but also in responsibly inculcating the full knowledge of Manodharma in all our kids. Please mind that this is very strictly only for the benefit of our kids and in no way for any aggrandizement of my self benefit. My sole, main and the only objective in all my deeds in this forum is only to educate and enlighten all our kids on the globe and make all of them true giants in all respects in our music. I shall be compelled to act in the same manner until I achieve my goal only in the high interests of our kids. I am always ready to do anything in this respect and I, very seriously and sincerely, appeal and pray all the respected-music-teachers to do the needful only for the benefit of our own kids. I always expect all your unanimous and heartily support and full cooperation in this respect. amsharma-1.25 am-12-07-2011.
