Is this list serving any purpose?

From the Bhakti List Archives

Mani Varadarajan • June 3, 2002 


Dear Members,

There hasn't been much activity lately on the Bhakti List.
Presumably this is because of the new guidelines I put in
place earlier this year, and because of the proliferation
of various Sri Vaishnava email discussion groups, each of
which have their own focus.

Given that this is the case, are the Bhakti List and related
groups serving any useful purpose? I mean this as a serious
question and not a rhetorical one. There is no need for this 
group to exist if members aren't deriving any benefit from
it. It may be that the other groups are more than
adequately satisfying the needs of Internet-aware people
interested in Sri Vaishnava religion and philosophy.

Or, perhaps the guidelines I put in place are too restrictive?
I may have put the cart before the horse, but I would appreciate 
public comment on where members want to take this group and what 
they envision as its purpose. Please be open and frank.

Thanks,
Mani
