Guest guest Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 sri: Humble pranam to all devotees of the Lord. ======================================= We can Pray. We should Pray. Will we Pray? =========================================== Details and sign up at: http://www.savetirumala.org Please read, understand and sign the pettition and forward this to other devotees. It is serious! Please remember that all the Jeeyars and Scholars of our sampradayam are standing united in this kainkaryam. Other than singing Pallandu to Perumal, this is the least we can do. HH Sriman Narayana Ramanuja Jeeyar Swami has been tirelessly working for the upliftment of all devotees. His Holiness has taken up this mission of rectifying the issues at TTD. http://www.chinnajeeyar.org/hhinnews.htm http://www.chinnajeeyar.org/latestnews.htm =======DETAILS============================================== Purpose: If you find yourself wondering what could be happening in Tirumala, you're not alone. Many people don't realize the magnitude of destruction occuring at the temple. The TTD is destroying many historical sites in the name of their "Master Plan". The following paragraphs very briefly summarize what is going on. The TTD was established to maintain and monitor the Lord Venkateswara Temple at Tirumala. However, misguided by their Agama Scholars, the TTD began a long term project intended to "better" the temple. Instead, the project is destroying centuries old structures and removing our heritage. Many of these sites have been tossed on the ground, and the calls of nature are destroying the sanctity of these demolished structures. Not only is the TTD demolishing structures, but it is also constructing new ones against what is written in the ancient scriptures. A new "Mahaprakaram" is being built, under the assumption that it is the third one. If this were the case, then the TTD would be following the scriptures, which is exactly what they are supposed to do. However, can the current administration and their Agama scholars be so arrogant as to think that the temple was not only built with a flaw, but that in the centuries since its completion no one has realized the flaw? Please, let us have more faith in our ancestors than that? The TTD needs to realize that the "Master Plan" is incorrect and must take the steps necessary to restore Tirumala to its former glory, so that future generations may experience the true sanctity of the temple! ======================================== Seven Demands To Save the Tradition at Thirumala ======================================== 1. We don't need facilities created at the cost of history and heritage of Tirumala. Thirumalai should not be converted as picnic spot for the tourists. 2. Stop all demolitions and new constructions which are against to the tradition and heritage. 3. Front portion of the temple of Venkatadri hill should be restored to its previous glory along with thousand pillared mandapam and all structures of heritage that are removed should be restored and reconstructed as they were. 4. Unorthodoxical practices and lacunas in " usages and customs " should be stopped at once. 5. TTD should put an end to all the activities that are against the system laid down by Purvacharyas. This is hurting the sentiments of millions of devotees. 6. Interference into the affairs of T.T.D by the persons of other denominations who so ever should not be allowed at any cost, AT ANY LEVEL. 7. Protective Mechanisms should be immediately institutionalised to the temple, to the deity and to the traditions. ===================================== Details and petetion sign up at: http://www.savetirumala.org RamanujaDasan, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
