Dear sirs,

Though there was no response to my earlier mail. I felt it as my moral =
responsibility
to convey my apology to you all.

The above subjected reply was unintentionally slipped out of my mail box.=
Actually
I wanted to cancel the mail somehow instead of pressing cancel button I =
pressed
Send button. By the time I realised my mistake it has reached all of you.

Mistake 1:
To be honest, anyone who has well studied Ramayana will come to know that
Indra is not a cheater. Neither he seduced Ahalya nor he cheated Goutama.

My intention was to question about Indra. In hoping that someone would =
contrary
my opinion about Indra so that there will be further discussion about Ram=
ayana,
I have written like that. Sorry.

Mistake 2:
I said Menaka deceived Viswamitra. Infact,
Menaka is a Sapagrasta and nothing wrong in her fullfilling her duty. The
reason why she deceived Viswamitra can be found in Padmapurana.

Mistake 3:
Bhagawadgeeta slokas. I wanted to type 2 slokas they are

yatatOhyapi kouMtEyA! purashasya vipaScitah |
iMdriyANi pramAdheeni haraMti prasabhaM manah ||
Bhagawad Geeta 2-66

sadRUSaM cEsThatE syasyAh prakRUtEh jnAnavAnapi |
prakRUtiM yAMti bhootAni nigrahah kiM karishyati ||

I was thinking of neat translation (the fact, I am bad at translation). =
I felt
my translation was bad and wanted to refer dictionary and write again..
hence I was about to cancel the mail and it slipped my system and reached
you.

Mistake 4:
The expression was very ironic.

meedu mottaMgA nA mail peddalaku manasu kasTham kaligiMcainA vuMDAli.
lEdA vALlaMtA peddamanasutOTi nannu kshmiMcayinA vuMDAli :-)

Sorry for this.

Regards,
-Madhava
