Guest guest Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 Unforeseen shocking attack on our sampradayam In this current age of kali people have degraded to an unimaginable level. The clear example is the case of Sri Thirukoshtiyur Madhavan Swami, a great scholarly devotee who gave up his job and took to serving temples in need at his young age of 30. He has been doing tremendous service to many Divyakshetras by renovating and reviving them and thus protecting sampradayam and Vedic culture with the blessings of our acharyas. Sri T. Madhavan Swamiji has been in Intensive Care of Appollo hospital, Chennai,India. Let us all pray Lord Venkateswara for his quick and full recovery! The details are here --- When he was going on a motor-bike in the city, two people came from behind and kept following him for some distance. Another group followed him in a car. They were driving very close to him. This continued for some time. When Madhavan Swami was crossing the Appollo hospital the chasers drew closer and started shouting 'it's him! it's him!', as if confirming the followers in the car that it was infact Madhavan Swami. The person in the car took out a long steel rod and hit Madhavan Swami on his head.It was a sure attempt to murder him. Madhavan Swami fell on the ground chanting Lord's names. His head was cut deep. It was a one and a half inch deep gash. Madhavan Swami was hit hard on shoulders. He fell unconscious on the ground in a pool of blood and slipped into a coma. Suddenly an auto driver passing that way observed this and addmitted him in the hospital. God helped Madhavan Swami in the form of auto driver. If it were not for the auto driver something really bad would have happened. Fortunately the hospital folks took full care of Madhavan Swami and rendered proper timely medical assistance. HH Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Ramanuja Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji landed in Madras at 1 AM on the 5th of August. HH went directly to the Appollo hospital from the airport to bless Madhavan Swamijiand enquire about his health. Vanamamalai Jeeyar Swamiji also blessed Madhavan Swamiji. Madhavan Swami is currently out of danger. We do not know who would have done this, to a noble and gentle man, who is loved and respected by all in the many dhivya desams that he serves. More details are awaited. Let us all pray Lord Venkateswara for his quick and full recovery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
