If there is no ground water the same well can be used for

recharging open well from their own terrace.>> May be Moola mata authorities should make some standard for some> requirements in any place of worship.>> There are maTas in Bangalore who have build boundary to boundary with out giving any room for sunlight Inside!!>> Also many of them still spending on Granite Decoration and no money to create there own tulasi growing area.u can see old oil tins for tulasi growing!!!!!!!!!( terrace of any maTa is a good place to make Tulasi garden) if they do not have any place on Ground.)>> We had a very bad experience 2 years back there was NO Tulasi for Shradda in one of the MaTas in Jayanagar. We were so help less as there was no time to get it !! we felt very bad about our/their sutiation of OVER USING spaces avble.>> Many of them may be at building/ designing stage of maTas MUST give some space for Tulasi and Proper designing of

maTas.>> As this groups have many professionals can add few lines to> standardise these issues and submit to the authorities for their consideration. if not we will make a dook let and upload at our websites of all groups so that if any organisation is proposing to build may refer these inputs.>> Rayara Seveyalli>> SREEDHARA.K.> Architect IN-HOUSE CONSULTANTS Managing Trustee SRI GURUKRUPA SEVA TRUST 424,H cross,II phase,RR nagar,Bangalore-98> JOIN tulasimata Group: http://groups.google.comtulasimata/> WEBSITE: www.tulasimata.org email: info> http://www.flickr.com/photos/in2house/ 080-28601980, mob:9844027231 maTa phno:080-2271 9656
