READERS’ MAIL
Wish you and
close to you a happy new year. I hope
Platinum Jubilee of TRIVENI will be celebrated with glory and grandeur.
-Pronab Kumar Majumder, Kolkata
Your
editorial “Is not happiness within us?” gives me happiness of seeing many good,
related quotations at one place. They
show different angles of vision, the vision of happiness. Especially, I like Emerson’s simple but
telling words, “If we pour perfume on others a few drops will fall on us.” The last sentence of the editorial is “He is
not well dressed, who does not smile”.
For me this smile is the perfume.
-K. V. Ramana Rao
My best
wishes for a grand success of the Platinum Jubilee function of TRIVENI. May the
function turn out to be a memorable event in your life and in the life of
TRIVENI.
-K. M. Kale, Gondia (Maharashtra)
I am glad
TRIVENI is in good hands. I used to
read it regularly. In fact, if I recall
correctly, I published a couple of papers in it. I trust, its Platinum Jubilee will be celebrated in a manner fitting
this outstanding periodical, possibly the best published from Andhra Pradesh.
-Prof. K. Ramakrishna Rao, Vizag
I am very
glad that you and other friends are interesting yourselves actively continuing
the publication of TRIVENI Quarterly, and thus serving a great cause which
Ramakotiswara Rau had in his heart.
-Justice Nittoor Srinivasa Rau,
Bangalore
Having lived
in journalism for nearly half a century, I know how difficult it is to run a
magazine of the stature of TRIVENI.
That you have been maintaining the standards set by the late founder
Kolavennu Ramakotiswara Rau garu, is a matter of pride to all of us, the
journalists who knew what TRIVENI was.
-Potturu Venkateswara Rao
May the
nectarine waters of the holy TRIVENI, the confluence of education and culture,
humanism and higher knowledge flow freely on in the New Year 2004, to flood the
hearts and minds of people for carrying a new awakening into the realms of love
and wisdom.
-M. Bhimsen Rao, Berhampur
TRIVENI is
dear to me. I had the privilege of
knowing Sri Ramakotiswara Rau garu and Sri Narasimha Rao garu with whom I
played tennis and interacted regularly.
It will be serious lapse on my part if I don’t participate in the
celebrations-
-Dr. A. Prasanna Kumar, Vizag
TRIVENI has
been an inspiring journal for me right from my childhood as my father had been
a regular subscriber to the valued journal.
I have also contributed articles a few years back. I shall be in tough from time to time and
deem it a rare privilege.
-Dr. K. Pramila Sastry, Rewa
I am glad to
note that TRIVENI is trying to live up to its founding ideals. It is a journal started by Andhras and it is
our pride to keep it going.
-Prof. D. S. Rao, Chennai
Your articles
“Spicy bits of Scientists’ Lifes” excels in every respect. I feel prompted to quote Albert Einstien’s
response to the protest of a women’s organisation against his visit to the US
published in Mein Weltbild (Amsterdam, Querido Verlag, 1934) – “Reply to the women
of America – Never yet have I experienced from the fair sex such energetic
rejection of all advances ; or if I have, never from so many at once. But are they not quite right, these watchful
citizenesses? Why should one open one’s doors to a person who devours hard
boiled capitalists with as much apetite and gusto as the Cretan Minotaur in
days gone by, devoured luscious Greek maindens and on top of that is low down
enough to reject every sort of war except the unavoidable war with one’s own
wife? Therefore give heed to your
clever and patriotic womenfolk and remember that the Capitol of mighty Rome was
once saved by the cackling of its faithful geese” hope you will like this addition, a humble submission from an
avid reader.
-Dr. Mansa Bakshi, Bhadrakali (WB)
I enjoyed
reading your “Spicy bits of Scientists’ Lives”. Like all articles, it sparkles with gems of thoughts and witty
sayings as well as interesting incidents and facts not commonly known to
readers. The comments about Dr. S.
Radhakrishnan and Swami Vivekanand are a fine tribute to their greatness as
teachers and you have rightly emphasized that the teacher’s role is to bring
about ‘the resurgence of a new spirit or awakening consisting of intellectual
alertness, humane feeling and the finer impulses’.
-M. G. Narasimha Murthy
Nowadays
these residential colleges are satisfied with getting ranks. Teachers should inspite and motivate. Dr. Arka Somayaji jocularly used to say there are three types of teachers –
one who confuses himself, the other confuses others and the third does both.
-K. G. Ramachandra Murthy
