We the members of Hindu Ikya Vedika, Andhra Pradesh, wish to bring the
following few points for your kind consideration and necessary action
Money is playing vital role in different modes in different temples in
Andhra Pradesh. Is the role of money is necessary? Is it necessary
between God and Devotee? Think for a moment.
As human beings we believe God. But the government is converting the
beliefs in to money. Is it necessary to measure the belief in terms of
money? The temples were built by the ancient Kings with a common
intention to take the people to God . But now a days money is playing
a key role even fpr darsan of diety . for example different amounts of
money are being collected for darsan from different distances A
common man is not able to take darsan of the diety as a rich man who
can pay more amounts to the Endowment. There is no such condition in
other religions
Despite several demands by the Hindu community there is no change in
the attitude of the Government towards Hindus. The Government should
provide power and water supply to Hindu voluntary organizations, which
are providing free meal and
Accomidation to the devotees. The Government of Karnataka has provided
grant for those who visit Mansa sarovara. But there is no simbelance
of thought to our government in that angle. The different Government
posts in Temple should be filled in consideration with the Peetadhi
Pathulu and Spiritul Gurus like Ravi Sankarji, Ganapathi Sachhinanda
Swamyji, Sundra Chaitanya Swamiji etc., and by the orgnizations like
Bramhakumari, CVVEK etc.,
The Endowment department is conducting tenders for collecting
of money for preserving cheppals at temples. The Contractors are
sqeezing the money under the guise of license. The prescribed feases
fir several sevas including Cheppal preservertion should be decided by
the devotee himself with his free consent. There should not be any
kind of demand. The Government should provide certain amounts for
renovating the ancient temples in Andhra Pradesh.
The other religious persons should be restrained from
participating in the auction with regard to the temple properties or
other services.
The Government of Andhra Pradesh provided RS.2 corers provided
for pilgrimages of Christian community in any way.
Hence we request you to please consider above few points and take
necessary action.
Sincerely Yours,
