Serve our Temples ( Ancient Vaishnava Shrines -

Divya Desams)

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

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

greater eminence compared to Devaki who gave birth to Him. When the

temple is a Divyadesam, the service is all the more significant.

 

“Serve our Temples” is an intiative to help our temples by

restoring basic services, food, shelter, education, financial

independence

Dream a little. Do a little

"What we can do, we must" - As He allows us to use His

resources for Him via devotees like us.

 

Back home in India, there are so many temples deprived of their basic

needs and services, primarily due to lack of funds. With galloping

prices, temple assets stripped, no government support, the temples have

never found it as difficult to sustain as they have now. Most of the

temples are deprived of basic necessities for the unhindered performance

of minimum daily prayers.

 

1. One priest to offer prayers and keep the premises clean

and open for devotees (Rs: 2500 per month)

2. Food (Prasadam), Oil, Flowers (Rs 2500 per month)

 

With just $120 per month (Rs 5000 per month) we have a divine opportunity

to preserve a temple. It is the solemn duty to preserve the temple not

only for current day devotees to have a divine Darshan but also for our

future generations.

 

>From the U.S, far away from India, yet you can still make a difference.

Allow His Grace to flow, and spend His money for His causes.

 

Vedics Foundation volunteers to serve as a bridge between those willing

devotees who have resources and the temples in need. Vedics has already

reached out to a few temples.

Please visit

www.vedics.net/projects

for helping an ancient temple.

For further details, send mail to: vedics

We are looking for donors to donate for monthly support for a few more temples,

Please contact Sri TA Varadan: 425 558 5917

Sriman Sadagopan swamin,

 

In response to your message in the ,

about my e-book on Divya desams, there has been

spontaneous response from bhakthas residing in

different parts of the world.

I have been dispatching them the CDs and continue to

do the same since some more requests are still

trickling in. As suggested by you I priced each CD

Rs.50 in India and $5 abroad inclusive of mailing

charges. The net proceeds are being donated to small

temples in India.

Going through the appeal of Sri Pattangi swami,as a

token of my service in a small way, I propose

to e-mail you in pdf format my e-book on 108 Divya

Desams to you with a request to post it in our

groups. Members interested in the CD can download

the same and send their contributions, direct to the

Vedic Foundation towards the upkeep of our ancient

temples.

Please advise me how I should e-mail the pdf text.

Incidentally I have done one more e-book, on 275 Siva

Sthalams, which will also be given for this cause.

Dear Sadagopan swamin,

Thank you for posting my message.

As informed you I have attached my e-book on 108 Divya

Desams in the files of our groups to enable members to

download them, and send their contributions to the

Vedic Foundation.
