*Symposium on the Protection of Hindu Temples on September 20 in Nellore
AP*
*“This is the ancient land, where wisdom made its home before it went into
any other country… Here is the same India whose soil has been trodden by
the feet of the greatest sages that ever lived… Look back, therefore, as
far as you can, drink deep of the eternal fountains that are behind, and
after that look forward, march forward, and make India brighter, greater,
much higher, than she ever was*.” Sri Swami Vivekananda
Dr. Ghazal Srinivas, Brand Ambassador for Global Hindu Heritage
Foundation and SaveTemples has organized a timely and appropriate Symposium
on the Protection of Hindu Temples and demanded that the government should
repeal the Endowment Act and handover the management of the Temples to
Acharya Sabha. He mentioned that government has no moral or ethical reason
to take over these Temples lands that were donated by our forefathers to
make sure that the Temples are maintained and the Priests are properly paid
and all the festivals are done as per our scriptures.
On behalf of GHHF and SaveTemples, he made the following
recommendations to the government to ensure that the Hindu Temples are
properly maintained as per our scriptures. GHHF, Swami Paripoornanada and
Dr. Srinivas were advocating the protection of Hindu Temples, Protection of
Cows and welfare schemes for the Priests. This Symposium is being
conducted first in Nellore and hope to repeat it in other cities.
1. All the priests are given “White” cards and NTR Arogyasree scheme
privileges are awarded to all of them. They are living substandard life as
their salaries are so meager they cannot even food two times a day.
2. In August, Dr. Srinivas has organized International Short Film
Festival in Hyderabad. They have selected 40 films from 140 GHHF received
and showed in Prasad Labs. Response was overwhelming and beyond our
expectations. He announced some of these 40 films would be shown across the
state and abroad to make aware of the rich dimensions of Hindu Temples and
Gomata.
3. Numerous problems that we are facing to day because of our negligence
in treating the Gomata in a proper way. They are being send to
slaughterhouses and committing grave sin by not protecting them. Many
scientific studies have shown that the products of Gomata provide much
needed health. Its urine is patented as medicine to treat cancer patients.
Milk is as good as mother’s milk providing sustenance for the humanity.
Cow-dung absorbs the dangerous radiation much faster then any substance.
4. We will take stand against “Dance Baby Dance” type dances being
conducted in Temples. We are opposed to these kind of sensate dances since
they are inappropriate in sacred places.
5. All Temples should promote Religious activities, Burrakathas,
Harikathas, Classical Bharata Natyam, Kuchipudi dances and similar
traditional cultural programs.
6. Sanatana Dharma is a blue print for all stages of life that describe
the responsibilities respectively.
7. He lamented on the nails pace help rendered to the priests by the
government although the Fund is establishes. It is not being used to help
them.
8. He emphasized the need to develop mechanism to wrote the history of
all the Temples, make arrangements to inform the pilgrims before they visit
the Temples, pay attention to the needs of the pilgrims and renovate all
the Temples that are in need of repairs.
9. Thousands of NRIs are involved in this movement to preserve, promote
and protect the Hindu Temples. GHHF was started in 2006 and they have been
advocating the need to repeal the Endowment Act and handover the Hindu
Temples to Hindus themselves.

Nellore: Global Hindu Heritage Foundation and Save Temples Organisation
advised the government to bring endowments lands and other assets under the
control of Seers of Holy Peetams to prevent misuse of temple properties.
Functionary of the foundation and Ghazal exponent, Dr Ghazal Srinivas, made
this observation while reminding that government does not have any say in
the properties belonging to churches and mosques.
Addressing large number of temple priests during Archakas’ Convention held
at Town Hall here on Saturday, the Triple Guinness World Record Holder
appealed the government to extend NTR Arogya Sree scheme to Archakas. He
also suggested that the government hand over the management of temples with
less than Rs 2 lakh revenue to the priests working in such temples. Dr
Srinivas has underlined the need for measures to protect the temples,
priests and the cows while dwelling at length on the link between the
Indian tradition and culture with the temples.
*“Can we imagine a country without temples and cows? There were only three
per cent sick people among the entire population when people were drinking
cow milk and using cow ghee, now 81 per cent of the population is suffering
with one ailment or other after ignoring cow products. Scientists have
already found medicines for cancer using cow dung and urine, but we are not
realising this and watching silently when cows are transported to slaughter
house*.” Dr Srinivas alleged.
He lamented over government attention towards revenue-earning temples and
looking at them as ATM Centres while ignoring the shrines that lack funds
for daily rituals. “Even the devotees especially youth also approaching the
God for materialistic benefits due to lack of guidance by the parents,” he
added pointing to the students bee lining to Chilukur temple for Visas.
Madamanuru Chandra-sekhara Avadhani, Siro-mani Sarma, Machavolu Rajasekhara
Sastry, Koduru Ravindra Reddy, Vajju Srinivasa Sarma, Vuchhi Bhuvaneswara
Prasad and Balaram Naidu spoke on different issues pertaining to Veda
Schools, history of temples, cow protection, temple security and temple
lands. Dr Srinivas felicitated 60 Archakas on the occasion. Endowment
assistant commissioner Veguru Ravindra Reddy, organisers of the convention
Anantha Padmanabha Prasada Charyulu and Mypadu Raja were also present.
