It was a lovely day, and a lovely way to take a final goodbye. A meet up in a pub on the warmest day of the year, a stroll down into the woods, a cheerful picnic, a five-minute meditation. Then 25 or so friends of […]

Arpana says, “I was just about to post this and say it reflects Sannyas News at its best, that it’s how I see Sannyas News, but there’s potential for a discussion in this, methinks…”.

Sorry about the delayed reply. I do appreciate the offer of money — I’ve spent about £250 omn this site since Parmartha died, most of it on this virus scare. I don’t know how we can set up contributions. I’ll have to think about it. I’ve written a book about my travels, Poona and my take on the aftermath. I’ll keep you posted on that.

Could not agree more on the needs for people to put stuff up. I’ve done my best to keep it online of Parmartha’s sake, including hassling on and off for the past few days with a virus problem (see above). But this is not my forum. If you want it to carry on please use it.

Some of you may have noticed that the site went down, apparently because of malware, I’ve just spent money and two days of hassling with the hosts and a security company trying to sort things out. Sorry about the pictures of the walk disappearing, I want to be sure that they are not implicated before I fix it. I also want to get on with the rest…[Read more]

Thanks, Arpana. I think I’ll try the upgrade again and see what happens. I can’t do it immediately but the site seems to be bubbling along ok for the moment. The last time I tried, everything went haywire because […]

Lokesh, voice from the past. You’re still welcome to post articles. In fact SN needs new content so all are welcome to contribute. I’m not quite sure what the arrangement was with Parmartha. Do you have postings […]

Kavita,
Thanks for your comment. I have not noticed any harsh words. First, please note that it was Sudipa who wrote the piece – she is credited in the opening paragraph. I edited and formatted her writing for […]

Sudipa describes how eight friends of Sannyas News co-founder Parmartha, who died on July 20, went on one of his favourite walks in his memory.

Parmartha used to organise and lead silent walks on the South […]

Thanks for that, Lokesh. The editorial side is not so much a problem. I was landed with the responsibility for the site by accident when Parmartha asked me to help revive it when it went offline during his […]

Around 150 people celebrated of the life of Sannyas News co-founder Parmartha, also known as Clive Critchley, at a lovely funeral ceremony conducted by Maneesha James on August 15. Among the many tributes was one […]

There’s a grace period for renewals, which expired because of Dharmen’s death. We managed to catch the .org domain in time. We haven’t tried to buy back the .com address because we do not know what is happening […]

Sannyas News has always welcomed input from anyone but for legal and other reasons (there are some crazy people online) all contributions are seen by an editor before posting. Also someone has to pay the bills. […]

Anand Parmartha, who has edited Sannyas News for the past 18 years, died peacefully on July 21 at the age of 73. He had been ill for some months with cancer, which he bore with a wonderful stoicism.
