Sri PandavaDhootar Perumal – Appeal Part I

[Guest guest]

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha

 

Dear Devotees: Please accept adiyen's humble pranam and read this appeal for

Serving our Dhivya Desam in Kancheepuram (Sri PandavaDhootar)

 

Maintaining an ancient temple is better than building a hundred new ones.

That is the reason why Yasoda who brought up Sri Krishna, attained greater

eminence compared to Devaki who gave birth to Him.

When the temple is a Divyadesam this is all the more significant. Serve Dhivya

Desams in any way you can.

 

Many of you are already serving some temples.

"What we can do, we must" - As HE allows us to use HIS resources for HIM via

devotees like us.

There are many many causes, we should try and do as much as we can, these are

oppurtuniites the LORD is placing for us.
