Talk:Samudra manthan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Copyright issue
I have added the "Symbolism of Samudra Manthan" section. However the material in this section has been taken from the page hinduwebsite.com/churning.htm. Although I have tried to modify and shorten it, it still resembles the original and I am not sure if this constitutes a copyright violation. Please advise or do the needful. Thanks.

It surely is a copyright violation because I have writeen it for Hinduwebsite.com and you will not find a similar interpreation anywhere else. Author Jayaram V. And thanks for taking it out.
- While the symbolism is indeed beautiful, it is the first time I have come across it (i.e. the symbolism, not the story of the churning). Was the symbolism written by a renowded sage, or is it an opinion piece on the website? If it is indeed part of a famous bhashyam, then it may not hurt to keep the section. If not, removing it might be a good idea. Adityan 21:05, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
- The symbolism has been taken from the page above (hinduwebsite.com/churning.htm) which is a Hinduism related site and it seems logical - by the same reasoning for the Symbolism of Ganesha. Rohitbd 11:32, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
