Between You and Us

Dear Reader,
We hope that you enjoyed the previous Issue of Heart to Heart. We generally receive prompt feedback from many readers soon after the Issue is uploaded. But this time, we did not receive many mails. We are sure that we have not reached perfection. We are also sure that we need your active participation to help us achieve perfection. So, do not keep your valuable suggestions to yourself! Send them to us, today!

Coming to this Issue, the Cover Story is on the Vedas. Veda chanting has always been popular at Prashanti Nilayam and of late it has become a daily feature in Darshan. Swami has been evincing keen interest in His students learning the Vedam and this has rubbed off on to everybody. There are many people who are keen to understand the Vedas and to learn them. Keeping this demand in view, Heart to Heart presents to you two articles. The first one is an introduction to the Vedas for beginners. The second one concerns the message of the Vedas, in particular those hymns chanted at Prashanti Nilayam.

There are other interesting articles and features, but two of them deserve special mention. One is the article titled ‘The Other 9/11’ in Feature Articles and the other titled ‘Sacred Psychiatry’ in Miscellaneous. Both are thought provoking so do get back to us on these and the other articles.

We hope that you all enjoyed the Lord’s 79th Birthday. We wish you a Happy and Joyous Christmas in advance.

Sairam,
SGH Team.
