[edit] stub, expansion
You can remove the stub if your want. It's mostly for small articles and articles that have barely any content. I mostly just categorize Hinduism topics or and to do some minor fixes. Why don't you add yourself to the list in WikiProject Hinduism? --Dangerous-Boy
There are no obligations. The project is just there for reference to help you with article construction if you want it. You don't have to anything that you don't want to do. It has the code for templates in case you need them. --Dangerous-Boy
[edit] Your message
Thank you for your message. I have written a lot of articles on Hinduism such as nayanars, karma in Hinduism, vishnu sahasranam, shri rudram. There's a lot of ignorance in the wikipedian community about Hinduism and I am trying to correct them.

I have made edits to most articles in the Hinduism category. Besides the ones listed in the earlier message, I have wrote articles on avatar, linga, Ishta Deva, Smartism, Madhva, Raghavendra Swami, Nayanars, and Kalahasti. we need help on Lalitha sahasranama. I wrote on Rudram and Vishnu sahasranama but I don't have enough (on hand) resources on Lalitha sahasranama. As you can see, the article on Lalitha sahasranama is quite short and needs a lot of improvement. The articles on Hinduism were in pretty bad shape before I and others came along.

for my contributions, please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Raj2004 I will add myself to the project list.
Thanks for your help with the articles! also, when you write the articles, there is no need to add a signature at the end. The history section would identify the contributor. Thanks. I read your article on the saivite teacher, ayyapa. It is very good.

[edit] TTA
I saw your much-needed expansion to Tat Tvam Asi, an article that I started. I think that I saw your posting on the Yahoo Advaita group. Namasteji. --goethean ॐ 14:50, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] History of Hinduism
Do you think you can help improve History of Hinduism? The goal is to get it as good as History of Buddhism. --Dangerous-Boy
[edit] smartism
Profvk, the term, smartism was coined by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami to describe a Hindu denomintation that follows the smarta tradition that follows Sankara.

[edit] Picture for Friendship Theorem
Dear Professor, thank you for your article on the Theorem on Friends and Strangers. It is a very nice theorem. I read you would like to illustrate the article and I'd like to offer my help. Do you already have a picture and are you having problems including them in the article, or do you want me to draw a picture?
Yours, Jitse Niesen (talk) 13:16, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Tat tvam asi: vishishtadvaita interpretation
Yes, the introduction to the article has been improved a lot, thank you. I found your page by watching the Special:Newpages list for pages that need attention. --IByte 11:49, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Eknath copyright
Hi, I noticed you copy-pasted the article at Eknath from http://www.geocities.com/profvk/gohitvip/52eknath.html which seems to be your site. I have removed the paras for now, for copyright violation. But I will revert it, once you give permission. You can do that, either by licensing your content (at http://www.geocities.com/profvk/gohitvip/52eknath.html) under GFDL. Or you can mail me giving me the permission from a mail id listed on the site, so we could verify the owner. --Pamri • Talk 07:54, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for edit summary
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. – Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 15:17, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
