Dear Ravi

you are in right direction, it is a good thinking , you are a Karam Yogi as per your words. Simple question you can ask , where the income pf the temple goes,it does not metters if golden plates or other things are there, you must be aware of Golden temple,Amritsar, Huge Churches , Mosques, it is faith. About politicians I want to ask from you how many Hindu temples are under government control and how many Mosques Gurudwaras, Churches. And at last go through the ground works done by temples. Saints like Asaram Bapu, Sri Sri ravi Shankar , Sadhavi Ritambhara, Swami RAm dev, Gayatri Parivar, Amma, number is much more , but yes we personally have to involve in such activities , feel proude to be Hindu because if you would have beenm a Muslim a fatwa would have been issued against you . Yoyu are saying because now the time habs come do it yaar keep it up , help needies it is the only right to meet GOD.Sorry if pinched but ultimatlly we ourself have to find sollutions Hai na.

“there are 2.4 mn places of worship in India as against only 1.5 million schools and 0.75 million hospitals and dispensaries!”

because its is quite easy and cheap to raise a small temple and with a stone statue in the name of god. People will themselves come and shower money. Who is ready to spend lacks and crores in building schools and hospitals?

These are the small things of our lives which we tend to ignore. It is not even easy to trust on who to donate and who is actually needy. Every other day something or the other pops up; begging is also a profession, where we see so many people carrying it out as a business, especially in the cities and metros.

It has been long time that I have stopped going to the temples and just pray in my mind. I believe that people who are sitting as saints in the temples are not saints in their actions. They are the real businessmen. Haven’t you seen, Celebrities get special treatment in temples while general public has to wait in queues; We are not fair in our basic nature.

Great suggestions. But these are not going to create any difference in the situation of deprived sections.

i don’t think your comment is relevant to the above comments as no one suggested anything...as far as deprived communities are concerned, they will never be uplifted till the time they are separated from other sects.Be it in the name of caste or in the name of reservations.

Nobody has talked about deprived sections in your blog but I think the essence of your post is to feel good by helping the poor in the name of God.

Ravi,

There is a fight in the name of Temple in India,still unresolved. Huge money is being spent in litigations. Beggars refuse work. When the chair is offered for the house help,her eyes are glued to TV set. My best half becomes the helpmate to her. The care taken for house help’s children goes waste as they are irregular to the school. If my best half is willing to coach them in her extra hour,is neglected.

You speak to disist not grease the palms..But work is not done.

We cannot say that India totally is under dark. Among so many odds, India

getting better. We feel the betterment in urban areas; rural areas are still have to be devoloped.

Even in the developed countries, the moral deprivation is acutely felt. Not being without God, does not necessarily mean to be mean. There are noble atheist. As far as divinity is concerned Indian Culture is imbibed with divinity whether it is a stone or not. It is viewd with utmost sacredness. Let it go that way, without coersion.

Developed countries took several centuries to attain it. India too will attain similarly.
