Some people seem to be quite happy with
ASS.
It seems Asom Sahitya Sabha (ASS) changed its name only in 1964 to ASS.
It may be the right time now for it
tochange to OXX (Oxom Xahitya Xobha)

Ram's temple.
A Hindu cannot say let us all unite
and try to follow our original pure Vedic Hinduism because that does not
work.

Nice writing.
Howeverto clarify the point
from Buddhist perspective.
There are two ends of the
pendulum.
On one end are the Believers, who
believe that there is God.
On the other are the Atheists, who
believ that there is no God.
A Buddhist however is neither a
believer nor an atheist.

It is because 'not to believe in God' is also a
beleif.

Dear Barua
Title: Re: [Assam] Lekhiboloi vs. Likhiboloi
And that is why we have the
dictionaries which specifys the correct way of spelling a word. It is like
thisEnglish word (say) 'country' which has this spelling. Suddenly we
cannot be smarter and try to write it as 'kantry' and say they will enrich
amese words in Roman letters as they sound, without any intention to
hurt the feelings of the intellectualsor act smart, but simply becoz we
are just ordinary people and to us, as long as we write it right in Assamese,
it is fine to us.

it scholar, but he chose to write in
Assamese-Brojawoli and he did it without any influence from Sanskrit.
Probaly you know that he was the first to use the word OXOM in the
Kirton.
That is my
point.
