Okay, this article is a mess[edit]

Could we seriously have a complete rewrite here? In my mind, an article should only even be good enough to attempt a good article review on if a reader who knows nothing about its subject can go in, read it, and come out with a bit more of an understanding. Right now, I just removed a whole bunch of spam that has been on this article for months. We need better references, a better format, etc. ViperSnake151 18:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

this article is not a mess, i think the content is better than before, and the description is short but good. the references are not much given, that is due to the lack of english books as standard or authority. it would be better to give references to the books/granths written by acharyas rather than websites. the article needs a list of original/authentic writings of acharyas available in ebook format. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mangalpushti (talkcontribs) 04:28, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

@Ms Sarah Welch: One more messed up article. :( -Nizil (talk) 12:56, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, tagged for 10+ years, much of it worthy of WP:TNT. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 14:44, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ms Sarah Welch: In one reference, literal translation is 'Path of Grace'. Is it better? Nizil (talk) 17:15, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is Sanskrit, derived from Pusha (पुष), which connotes "nourishing, flourishing, cherishing". See (p. 587, col. 3), also see puSa. We need to mention the significance of grace to Pushtimargis, which I will do in the next few edits. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 19:01, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That is good explanation. There is also a Gujarati term Poshan which means nourish probably derived from Pusha. Your article improvements are awesome.-Nizil (talk) 06:11, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
