Mumbai told me that the Vidyapetha in Mulund ( belonging to Uttradhi Mutt) is

always looking for support either financially or in kind.We then decided to

donate rice or wheat once in a year to the mutt so that they could feed the

students atleast once in a year.

Dear Gopal,

Thanks for sharing your experiences in helping with mAdhva causes. One

of the purposes of the VMS is to facilitate such efforts by sharing and

communicating relevant information. You are helping in this regard. Please share

the address information on this list.

 

One of the main points that was emphasized in the discussion at the VMS

meeting was that, we all can do that. It does not have to take a lot of money

to do those sort of things but still we can make a difference to the particular

causes. There are small mAdhva maThas, institutions that teach traditional

sanskrit learning that do not

have a solid financial support base. We can help in those kinds of causes. I

request list members especially those in India to collect information about

maThas and other valid causes and share it on this list. Later we can think

about organizing that information and publishing on the VMS web page.

 

VMS is trying to obtain tax-free status so that more formal fund-raising

efforts can be organized if necessary in the future. But the things we are

talking about here are small efforts that can be done by individuals on their

own.

 

Another thing that I want to emphasise is that we are actually helping

ourselves by helping these causes. Whatever we give towards these causes is

multiplied many many times and returned back to us either in this life or in the

future. It also accelarates our spiritual sadhana. One can very easily verify

this.

Whosoever even atempts at meditation upon the feet of shri Hari, his entire

sin gets destroyed immediately and surely. The supreme state of final

emancipation will certainly come to him who meditates (upon the feet of

shri Hari).therefore why is that (worthy means) relinquished ?
