[t'venkatam] Fw: Sriperumbuttur Toilet Facilty

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Daasan Sudarshan Madabushi from Egypt.

 

On behalf of the members of the Tiruvenkatam Group

members in Kuwait, I am proud to see that the

" kainkaryam " undertaken by Sri Manoram and Sri MG

Vasudevan swAMi is serving its purpose fruit at the

temple at Sri Perumbudur. I know well how much

" shramam " (toil) they both underwent during the course

of building that facility.

 

Temples in India in general and their immediate

surroundings definitely need better standards of

public hygiene. In this regard, the amenities for

public hygiene provided at the Temple of Lord

Venkateshwara on Tirumala are a model indeed. I salute

the TTD for upkeep and maintenance of standards of

hygiene in such a great temple where about 50,000

pilgrims congregate for worship every day.

 

I wish every temple in India has such excellent

standards of public hygiene in their surroundings. It

means more public toilets for the general public/

pilgrims located conveniently and appropriately in and

around the temples.

 

On my own behalf, I am willing to commit financial

support to be raised for more such similar such toilet

facilities in important temples in India as was

provided in Sri perumbudur. Financial donors like me

can be found easily everywhere in the world. But it is

not easy to find persons like Sri Manoram and Sri MG

Vasudevan who will donate time, effort and sincere

spade-work. We need more people like them to do a

great job! Hats off to them for this humble

" kainkaryam " which in reality is not humble at all but

really great.
