Talk:Satyanarayana Puja

Article
This article is in terrible situation and needs a major editing exercise !Jonathansammy (talk) 21:20, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

But what in specific are the inaccuracies in the article that need to be fixed? I agree that having only so few sources is not compatible with a well written article, but when I read it, I am not struck by anything specific that is grossly inaccurate. In fact it is better than a lot of Wikipedia articles. If there is nothing that is incorrect in the article, I see no reason to change it. User: (talk) 16:25, 23 April 2013

Satya pir - Narayan
Wiikipedia says assume good faith. Nevertheless, I have no problem in quoting from some of the references I had cited. If I want to, I can add dozens of references related to Satya Pir / Satya Narayan but I thought three should give enough weight.

This references says "One supplicant will address him as Satya Narayana, implying that he is an avatar of Krishna, while another one in a different tale will be told that Satya Pir has just come from Mecca, which would make him Muslim."

This reference says

"Some of these figures have been viewed as pirs and by others as deities as evidenced in literary sources about figues such as Satya pir, Satya Narayan or Pir-Narayan" Jonathansammy (talk) 17:24, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Here is another reference:

Moreover, Sufism gained popularity in Orissa and led to the emergence of the Satya-Pir tradition.Even today Hindus worship Satyanarayan and pir together.

 * None of these references even remotely support the notion that Satyanarayana puja is syncretism of Hindu and Sufi traditions.VictoriaGraysonTalk 23:02, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Really !! Have a look at this then. I hope you can see Google books on where you live. Let me know otherwise and then I can put the reference details. Jonathansammy (talk) 22:08, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
