    Hello Mrs.C,

    I thought i had to try only ur recipes, but now u have made me addicted to your Spirituality thread tooo....and i cant believe myself being so absorbed reading your enlightening articles inspite of the fact that i have some last-minute packing etc to do to leave for India tomorrow.
    I should hav found this thread long back when i had all the time to spare here in US. Nevertheless, I aim to make time to read all your posts. No excuses for missing out YOUR posts.

    Warm Regards,
    Shriii

    Dear Shriii,
    Welcome to this forum. I now realise, many should be missing out on these articles. Can you or anyone suggest, how to bring them to everybody's attention better ?
    Besides the leader post, please read the interactions following. They will be equally interesting.
    Please stay tuned, Shriii ( I hope I have not missed out on any "i") !:tongue
    Love,
    Chithra.

Great work of yours. I am really amazed at the hard work that would have gone into all these threads. I am sure that one day Indus Ladies is going to become the most sought after site because of its uniqueness.Hats off to the team work and a special admiration for you! I will go through each of these threads one by one patiently.

    Dear Chitvish,

    Thanks for creating this index...

    Can you tell me how I can download the contents in one go.... rather than going one by one.... So that I can go through each of your articles slowly in my own pace.... As I dont have internet connectivity at home.....

    All are great works.... It needs patience and understand of things in the right perspective..... Each word can be interpreted differntly......

    Thanks is too small a word for enlightening many of us in lot of areas....

    Veda
