Talk:Gururaj Ananda Yogi

Contents

[edit] Hello! This page is not blank anymore!

Yeap, now it's not empty :). There were concerns about the notability of persons that have something to do with Category:Meditation for Spiritual Unfoldment. Well, it is the larger school of meditation in the UK right now, and it concerns some thousands people worldwide. There are also other reasons, if this article family is given enough time and a chance to grow, then I believe the notability and (hopefully the interest!) will be more apparent :)

Thanks!

[edit] Notice Removed

The notice of notability is removed, since the person concerned founded an organization that concerns thousands of people, among other reasons... hopefully more will be added later —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.14.157.34 (talk) 13:20, 31 December 2006 (UTC).


[edit] Regarding this article's Notability

Hello! So far the only notability regarding these persons (Jasmini Ananda, Rajesh Ananda, Gururaj Ananda Yogi) is that they founded / leading FISU (Foundation for International Spiritual Unfoldment). These people, organization and their functions concern a certain thousand people, so that's why they are considered notable. They are also responsible for authoring books and other publications, but this list is being compiled and will be added. Same goes with news / media clippings. Please note that these articles are rather young and content is being added gradually, as soon as the certain community of contributors are mobilized.

Thanks and Happy New Year 2007!

[edit] The "big" additions

Happy new year to all; hope you are not ill like myself. This man: Rajesh Ananda contacted me with a load of information regarding Gururaj Ananda Yogi. As most as my illness allows me I am adding in a slow pace some of that content little at a time. For this addition, all contributions are welcomed for some tasks: There are certain "sirs", societies, universities, television / radio stations mentioned from many parts of the world; anyone that has access to these domains and can get more details, then is welcomed to do.

Oh, and standardization, making wikipedia links, adding more content etc... anyone feels like to, sure thing. I will be back on the saddle when I 'm feeling a little better.

If events and media references continue to grow, then we can see whether we need the whole bulk of it occupying the article, or simply focus on actual more useful and interesting content.

Thanks, have a good one,

[edit] Moving on - what this article needs

Hi. Since a related discussion for deletion was closed, I call this a "new day", so anyone that wants to help to expand / improve this article here some things that it needs:

  • You may have noticed the template that states that "this article does not cite its sources". Well, most of the mentions under "media interviews", "symposia" etc are pre-internet and unfortunately not much online stuff exist to cross reference; the only way for someone to cross reference is to physically go to these organizations / tv and radio channel and dig in their archives. One way to assist citing the references is by searching (in any way such as libraries, articles from electronic newspapers, or online databases / resources). For example, one good citation is the 'World Parliament of Religions' of the "Symposia" section. So this is what needs to be done to as many as possible.

I think people from UK can find more information from the libraries by searching for Gururaj's publications or articles from old UK newspapers such as filmstrips etc. I know people that used to do this during studies in the US. I believe pretty much similar systems are available in the UK too.

  • addition: Not being forgetful, there is a Spanish Wikipedia article on Gururaj Ananda Yogi already established. If any users speak Spanish and can translate passages and transfer here, please do, after you judge and you agree on what is translated and transfered. Feel free to make additions / improvements on the Spanish article too.
  • This is just a suggestion. If you have any other ideas or comments please speak up, or simply click "edit" and add your stuff :).


Cheers,
