Sri Ranganatha temple - Part 3 - If we don't give, who will ?

 

Dear bAgawathAs,

 

While you can give a dollar to the temples in India, one must

consider that in the same lines that Sri Ranganatha temple is

in our native village where we live here in US and give a

dollar to this temple as well. ie., the emphasis is that we

consider Sri Ranganatha temple as our own and involve in fund

raising.

 

I had mentioned above that there are many in india who will

give money for temples in india. Can those in India give

money to our temple in US in US dollars? In USA, who can give

money to our temples in US $?. If it is not we indians living

here, who else can give? No one else. We are a only a few.

Every hindu temple in US may deserve some support and many

temples are getting support and are already fuctioning.

 

Howvever, one must take note of one thing. Sri Ranganatha

temple is suffering for want of enough funds for a long time

only for one reason. It wants to follow the traditional Sri

vaishava agamas and want to be free of devathAnthram. For

the same reason this temple has been punished by many Hindu

donors in the past. Can we, as Srivaihsnavas sit aside and

watch this for long? This is the main reason that an appeal

to all Sri vaishnavas are made in Srivaishnava forums such as

this.
