Guest guest Posted February 20, 2002 Report Share Posted February 20, 2002 sri: Dear Devotees: Please accept adiyEn's humble pranams. Yes any amount that a devotee is willing to give towards this cause is great. But here is some background. There are questions as to what/who is VEDICS and what is the purpose etc. Please visit http://www.radioramanuja.com/docs/purpose.htm Item 4 at this link: Temple maintenance: We have tried variations of this in the past, with varying levels of success, but we have settled on a more local model now. We have chosen two areas - thirunangur and kanchipuram for two pilot projects. These two areas were chosen primarily because we either happen to be intimately familiar with these areas, or have managed to rope in someone who is intimately familiar with these areas. That makes it easier for the volunteers to co-ordinate. A local committee is being formed (consisting of a temple person, non-temple person, local leader of the community and the temple EO in some cases) in each area. A corresponding foreign committee will be formed. The foreign committee will be entrusted with the task of publicity and raising funds for small projects in the temple. The local committee will involve the local community, and implement the projects as planned. The local committee will also include a representative from a major donor in some cases. Temple Visits and Tourism: If someone wants to visit the temple etc., the local committee will co-ordinate. We require volunteers in India as well as abroad for this project. This will allow easy access for any one interested in visiting a temple for spiritual reasons and sometimes their families for touristic reasons. We are planning a Temple tour (30 or so Dhivya desams) for devotees outside India (who do not have local contacts to completely enjoy a temple visit). Slotted in Jan/Feb 2003' Luxury Tour buses with AC to allow devotees to travel and enjoy kalakshepams/ discussions for 5 to 6 days. With Lords grace, we facilitate more people to visit these temples. We need to get more people to fall in love with these temples and take up these causes. VEDICS is working towards a local committee and a sponsor committe for every temple that is in need. azhwAr emberumAnAr JeeyAr thiruvadigalE saranam adiyEn rAmAnuja dAsan Mukundan Vangkipuram Pattangi http://www.radioramanuja.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
