TTD GRANTS .... ANOTHER MISREPRESENTED STORY BY "BIASED" MEDIA

Whole world knows that HH has initiated Githa Jyothi, a wonderful Huge Social

Service programme 2 years back (which is still going on now). As it involves

extensive Dharma Pracharam in 23 districts ( Which of course Dharma Prachara

Parishat like bodies of TTD are supposed to do...) of Andhra Pradesh, HH Sri

Swamiji informed TTD about the structure of the GITHA JYOTHI programme so that

it can also involve and strengthen the Dharma Prachara Programme, for which TTD

is supposedly committed to work.

 

However, TTD kept silent in supporting such a noble programme with the fear that

it might need to give some grant etc...! They have asked for all the reports,

structure, goals and ideals of the programme and also the plan of the

programme. Hoping for their positive response everything was provided. They

all appreciated the programme and asserted that this should be done. Then HH

said that they may provide vehicles so that the pracharaks trained for this

purpose who are ready can be sent all around especially the exploited villages

and the remote places, along with printed material about Lord Venkateswara and

also the selected slokas of Bhagavad Githa which will be distributed so that

people get motivated, regain moral strength, elevate themselves spiritually and

this leads them to live in harmony and peace.

 

HH also furnished the excellent authentic material prepared for this

purpose from the original texts and highly revered commentaries, such that it

would definitely elevate the morality and spiritual strength in the people. The

material was so wonderfully prepared after hours of hard work of great

"practicing" scholars such that it broadens the rational mind and enlightens

them with truths and values of life.

 

After having taken all the material prepared by HH Sri Sri Sri Chinna Jeeyar

Swamiji, TTD should have come out with great support then itself because HH Sri

Swamiji is doing all that Dharma Prachara, which a big organisation like TTD

is supposed to do. But, unfortunately, TTD didnot do anything and kept numb.

 

During discussions later they said that this whole will require 10 to 15 crores.

HH said that you need not provide the whole, we shall mobilise it from the

seeking devotees to maintain and manage vehicles and volunteers by spending for

the noble cause. You provide us with just vehicles, printed material and other

accessories. Then TTD officials somehow came forward to release 2.5 crores for

that purpose. But, even that did not materialise !

 

Even after directly participating and looking at the wonderful results and

accepting the facts, and also wondering at the response to the programmes

conducted by HH, still TTD officials are hesitating to release because they are

totally under the malinfluence of those with high POLITICAL FAME and those

with SOUND financial grounds who are against this Vedic Tradition and against

Bhagavad Ramanuja who brought Tirumala into light.) It is a pitiable situation

that those officials are afraid of doing their rightful duty for the very cause

for which they are existing there !! SO SAD.... for, they can't escape their

fate....if not today even tommorrow. HH Sri Swamiji gave them a good

opportunity to work out and clear themselves from the sins committed earlier.

But, unfortunate, they denied and are running into grave.

 

HH Sri Swamiji never minds whether somebody funds the programme or not unlike

many others. HH Sri Swamiji's main concentration will be to see that

programme's main purpose be enjoyed by all the seekers irrespective of their

direct participation or indirect participation. Whatever possible good is there,

it should be given to all. HH says, we are just instruments to carry out the

ordinance of Lord. We should obey Him. He takes care of all the rest. If some

people don't obey Him, definitely there is no escape than to publicly confess

the mistake and seek punishment for it, surrendering themselves to God.

Otherwise, they have to suffer inevitably because God's administration is very

perfect. His computer and His devices do their job perfectly ! If you are

killing the root but, expecting fruits from the tree, is it possible ? Whatever

little Dharma we do today will help us even after we leave this body. What ever

little Adharma we do today will make us suffer even after we leave this body.

So it is the choice left to the seeker to choose Dharma or Adharma. This rule

is common for all, for all, for all there is no escape ever to any one in this

world !!

 

Infact, TTD can give grants to any one who produced good results on field, in

favour of propagating the Vaibhavam, glory of Lord Venkateswara and His other

incarnations. As this is a Sri Vaishnava Shrine... any propagation in

accordance with authentic Sri Vaishnava tradition is welcome. But, any release

of grants for those who are without proper field work that is compliant with

Sri Vaishnava tradition of Tirumala ( of Lord Venkateswara ) or for something

other than the Sri Vaishnava tradition should not be done, because there are

separate organisations totally dedicated for their own traditions and their

systems with enough funds.

 

HH Sri Swamiji did not wait for any body. HH commenced the Githa Jyothi

programme. Fortunately there are still committed people in the state, ( if not

the Government or " those who are supposed to protect Dharma" ) who would

definitely respond for Vedic Dharma and who would support the ideal cause for

the sake of the welfare of the society. Looking at the enormous response to

Githa Jyothi programme from public and the noble ideals of " Worship your own

Respect all" "Serve all beings as service to God" being spread through out,

that were heartily accepted by one and all in the society irrespective of caste

and religion, TTD started thinking over the grant issue..

 

HH Sri Swamiji MOTIVATED PEOPLE TO RESPOND TO THE CALL OF DHARMA and took ahead

the movement proving wonderful results everywhere, wherever the programme is

conducted . It is a GRAND SUCCESS. People through out the state and also

from other states and countries started participating in the programme. HH Sri

Swamiji said " Whether somebody gives money or not, it doesn't matter because we

are not particular about that, we are particular about the fact that every pie

is contributed by a devotee for Dharma and it should be spent in service of

spreading the Dharma for which it was given. Sasthras say that if someone

misuses public money that too temple wealth, even a little, there is no doubt

that they will suffer in this birth and also in the coming births also their

generations will suffer!! May this not happen. Let everybody be blessed with

happiness and joy, whomever it be. Let everyone do their duty perfectly in

service of GOD so that social welfare is accomplished which strengthens people

morally, spiritually and the country prospers in all the fronts.

 

You know.... TTD constructed hundreds of Kalyanamantapas to earn rentals...but

not for any Dharma Pracharam, which are lying useless in most places and the

staff appointed to look after them are mostly idle. Why can't some Dharma

Pracharam be done through them ? asked Sri Swamiji. TTD Officials confessed the

matter and said that it is true and we will do that. But, no action was taken

till today in that direction. Officials are searching for income sources only,

(to prove their reputation) rather than properly utilising the income in

protecting Dharma.

 

Obedient and soft cows that eat grass and give us milk have become milching

machines and they are being treated worstly by immoral people. So also

traditions that maintained great morals in the society, that used to milch moral

values and spiritual values in the people, are now being exploited for personal

interests and selfish motives and for income generation 'show pieces' rather

than originally respecting the native grand glorious tradition established by

holy traditions and their heritage. Authorities have no time to look into

these matters and those who are supposed to do these have become lazy looking

for shortcuts and escaping techniques. As a result during the last 20 to 30

years of time, the standards of maintenace of tradition and sanctity in TTD

have tumbled down to much intolerable limits, like haemoglobin falling to

several hundreds of 'count' in the blood of a human ! INCOME and OUTWARD SHOW

have become the major struggles for the running officials and the staff. In

addition, this weakness is being well utilised by those who envy the growth of

this flourishing Srivaishnava Tradition. These envious people are supporting the

untraditional ways followed by the temple people, because they want to ruin the

original system itself and make this shrine converted to their 'own' system.

 

HH has already spent several crores of money in the Githa Jyothi Programme by

mobilising it from the the devotees. Many details of the programmes conducted

are being published on web too. (Click here to know more details) If it is in

foreign countries, a person like HH Sri Swamiji would have been given highest

honour and recognition for doing the whole massive programme. In India, some

people in the mask of envy, pride, ego and selfishness are trying to keep silent

or escape or discourage noble activities. How can you expect this society to

flourish with prosperity ? The sad part of it is that they don't do good work

and they don't allow others to do it ! There is no case of support at all

.....from such ineligible people sitting in the undeserved posts.

 

As TTD officials wanted to show off that they are supporting the programme

"Githa Jyothi" as if they are doing a big favour, announced indirectly the

release of 2.5 crores now..... which is no way sufficient to achieve the set

targets of the programme but, the great exercise of 'satisfying' the

authorities will remain. Media is wrongly focussing that TTD is giving this

amount under the pressure of CM. However, even CM attended Githa Jyothi

programmes, a number of MLAs, MPs, IAS officers, Collectors, Judges, Police

Officers, even TTD EOs and Dharma Prachara Parishath Officers, Endowments

Commissioners and the persons of highest ranks attended the Githa Jyothi

programme conducted by HH Sri Swamiji. They all participated voluntarily in the

programme some at their official level and some as just inspired aspirants of

the noble service. There are videos available, photos available in evidence.

In addition lakhs of public who attended stand evidence...

 

Media didn't focus these things because, it always want something that is

negative and sensational to degrade some person or activity rather than in

asserting and focussing the positive aspects of the noble activities. However,

many News papers covered Githa Jyothi programmes conducted till today in many

respects with photos and news to some extent in their local editions, because

every one is afraid of speaking out in this so called "secular country". If a

Muslim brother does some good programme, media focusses it with big mouth, if a

Christian brother does some good programme media focusses it with a big light,

but if a person of Vedic Tradition does some good programme, Media becomes BLIND

and DUMB as if it never happened. This is the fate of the " Media Freedom " in

our country. Because, of the arrogance of political power and the jealousies,

ego and Selfish motives working from behind in the name of "big " persons under

the Mutts of "Big" name this is happening. This scenario should change. People

should be given right information and all the positive activities done by

anybody should be properly focussed and encouraged by one and all.

 

LET EVERY BODY SHARE THE JOY OF DIVINE.

 

Any one who does such a noble work of spreading the divine message of Lord

Venkateswara or His forms, can be given any grants after proving the response.

If not for that, what for is the money that is being contributed by the devotees

in the name of Dharma?? It is sad that being IAS officers and other officials at

highest rank couldn't understand this much that a common man can understand.

Yes.. they may not because you know why, they are ' learned '. How? In the

Western system of education that is based on "divide and rule", " show good

outside and earn profits inside" policies. How can they be the authorities for

a great religious institutions like Tirumala which is purely based on highly

sacred native studies, native traditions coming since thousands of years,

followed under severe austereties and noble principles ??? It needs correction

somewhere if you really want to preserve the original traditions !! Infact

such things are available in the documents of the temples. Authorities don't

know and the so called heads in the temple who know little are hiding them and

defocussing the original documents, projecting themselves as iif they are the

great scholars who established the whole temple system. The so called

authorities should be the guardians but not the dictators or rule makers of any

sort in preserving the ancient glorious traditions in particular of any standard

religion coming since millions of years.

 

Let them give or not the Grant or the material, vehichles etc., The amount of

2.5 crores is just a peanut in the ocean. TTD is spending thousands of crores

on unnecessary administration and diverting the remaining funds to the

Government instead of using that Temple money, Lord Venkateswara's money for

His purpose !!. Does Government need this money ? Can't TTD spend atleast 2 to

3 percent for protecting Dharmam and promoting the activities that spread the

Divine Fragrance of Lord Venkateswara?

 

HH Sri Swamiji will not stop going ahead with the noble programme, GITHA JYOTHI,

as, it is ordained by Lord Himself. The programme is going on with ROARING

SUCCESS and crores of devotees will carry it forward. If somebody is really

capable let them come on to the field and do the service activities as liberally

as HH Sri Swamiji does. Then they can claim funds for further progress from

TTD.

 

Till now many organisation took funds from TTD to construct their palaces and

their townships and their own buildings, but not for the sake of spreading the

glory of Lord Sri Venkateswara. What happened to the loud cracking mouths of

media when those grants were given for some things other than for the purpose

that it is supposed to give ? It is not just speaking words sitting in ac rooms

and polished palaces. Join the poor and native people of our country. Share your

spiritual joy with them. Educate them so.

 

If you go to the rural and remote villages and meet people and give them just

moral support and invoke spiritual strength in them atleast once, you will know

the pain of field work involved in it. Those who really have that experience

will never speak against HH Sri Swamiji. Earlier we have heard of Bhagavad

Ramanuja, but, now we can see Bhagavad Ramanuja in the form of our HH Sri Chinna

Jeeyar Swamiji.

 

If any body who wish to know can contact us and know the facts. DO NOT GET

MISLED WITH THE BIASED NEWS REPORTS AND UNQUALIFIED COMMENTS of people who

ever even deserve to utter the name of HH Sri Swamiji. What for all the 18000

employees in TTD if not to work for the Sri Vaishnava Tradition for which TTD is

supposedly commissioned and committed?

 

People should respond sharply and rectify the misdeeds of the permanent

employees in TTD working under the influence of non-Vaishnavite pressures.

Tirumala is a Sri Vaishnavite shrine. TTD is just a guardian to protect the

heritage of the temple in its original sanctity. Tirumala is not a government

office or a place of tourism/ resort for non-spiritual enjoyments!!!

 

Then only society gets cleaned and Nation develops. Developing a Nation doesn't

mean big buildings, hightech parks, long roads and big machines.... It is

respecting each other and living in unison working for the progress of the

society, following value rich traditions and moral principles instituted by our

Rishis, Alwars and the great acharyas like Bhagavad Ramanuja of our country who

laid the glory path for the whole of Humanity.

 

KNOW THE FACTS AND RESPOND.

OPEN YOUR MINDS AND ACCEPT THE TRUTHS.

NOTHING IS GOING TO CHANGE THE TRUTH.

DEATH IS AS TRUE AS TODAY IS. DON'T FORGET.

LIVE WITH TRUTH AS LONG AS YOU LIVE.

THEN GOD TAKES CARE OF YOUR WELFARE.

 

IF YOU DISOBEY, IT IS YOUR CHOICE... HE TAKES CARE ! O' SINNERS.... BEWARE OF

YOUR WELFARE... NOT MONEY OR POWER BUT NET TRUTHFULNESS WILL ALWAYS REMAIN

WITH YOU WHETHER YOU ARE IN THIS BODY OR THE OTHER... SASTHRAS CONTAIN THE

TRUTHS OF LIFE AND DEATH. THEY TEACH US HOW TO LIVE FOR A BETTER LIFE NOW AND

REACH A BETTER END AFTER THIS LIFE. REALISE AND RESPOND ...

 

Isn't the blood flowing in your body ? Are you not the heir of great grand

lineage of great Rishis ? ISN' T your duty to protect your native tradition

that gave you infact, this wonderful life and recognition and glory. How many

in this world are blessed with it? Aren't you one? Should we keep quiet when

some internal insects are killing your own self ? REALISE AND RESPOND. IF

great traditions are maintained in their sanctity, if not in this birth, even if

you take next birth, you can have a chance to enlive and get liberated from the

sufferings of this mundane life. IF great traditions are ruined you will be

totally misled by the opportunists, selfish, egoists and undue dictators. GET

UP and RESPOND. YOUR MOTHER IS AT THREAT....YOUR TRADITION IS BEING SOLD OUT

..... YOUR RELIGION IS BEING CONTAMINATED AND KILLED. AWAKE AND RESPOND.

 

WE human beings are born free. Don't put your mind and thoughts in the groove

of alien culture and look at the world from the shoes of alien thinkers. Look

with your eyes and from your own glorious native view point or from the view

point of your own traditional Guru whom your heart really believes in. Worship

your mother, Worship your father, Worship your Guru, Worship your language,

Worship your culture, Worship your tradition, Worship your country, Worship all

your 'OWN' and Respect ALL others. Changing one religion to another is as a

big sin as killing your own self ! Worship your own and serve for the welfare

of the society in harmony with others. Never disrespect others or hate others.

This is a worst sin that never excuses you. If there is anything wrong, convince

with Truth and authenticity. Never force your own ideas, accept great ideas

already available for us from our great elders and put your ideas to materialise

them and realise the ultimate values !! Arise to the situation. Respond to

the situation. Don't be a coward or an escapist. Don't wait and waste your time!

you may not be able to do when 'you' want to do. Do when you are capable and fit

in all respects. Stand upright on the noble ideal or join the Guru whom you

realise is really committed for the purpose! Who does wrong and never repented

is doomed. Who does Right is saved !! There is no doubt in it.

 

Jai Srimannarayana !
