[Guruvayur/Guruvayoor] Guruvayoor temple matters- MOBILISE STRENGTH

[Guest guest]

Hari Om!

 

In a democratic system, it is us - the people - who select these

leaders to power. So, why blame a few when we are the ones voted them

to power?

 

Guruvayur Devaswom board and Cochin/Travancore Devaswom boards are

always under political or some other allegations during most of my

adult life. We claim that we are a highly literate society, then why

we let all these institutions go on like being unfair and without

proper accountability?

 

Naming a few politicians based on their religion or political

affiliation is an easy task, but that will not solve anything. What we

really need is making the majority to understand the situation and

unfairness. That is when you will start seeing change.

 

State and religion are two separate pillars of our society. But why

mix them together all the time?

 

As far as I know majority of Keralites are Guruvayoorappa bhakthas

irrespective politics. Why cant we keep the politics aside and bring

of all of them together to do the right thing?

 

We need to see change towards RIGHTEOUSNESS and that has to come

through the mass - the people - all of us.

 

My humble suggestion to all of you - please email, talk, write ,

influence all the people you know in your family, friends circle,

neighborhood to make them aware of the truth and tell them they have

the power to change it.

 

It will be nice if someone can prepare a draft of all the unfair

aspects that we need all of Kerala needs to know. Also the most

important positive changes to correct those wrongs.

 

May Guruvayoorappan bless this process if he wishes it is the right thing to do.

 

Om Namo Narayanaya:

Sunil.
