Sri Amudhan SamprOkshanam and ChAthur mAsya sankalpam - Part 12

 

It was painful that perumAL koil was somewhat deserted that

day. adiyEn also noticed a trend in some of the divya dEsams.

For example in utthamar kOil near trichy there is a belief

that if one visits this temple and have the darshan of our

perumAL for 11 thursdays their wishes will be fulfilled.

Sri Oppiliappan koil is crowded on Sravanam days and all satu

rdays. Thiru ev vuL oor is crowded on ammAvAsai days and so

on.

 

There is a very strong sentiment prevailing in the minds of

the people in trichy city on this utthamar koil perumAL and

on thursdays the crowd in this temple is really unmanageable.

adiyEn went on a thursday to this divya dEsam and noticed

the huge gatherings in every sannithi. Large number of people

turning over like these help the temple in their revenue. But

lately most of our divya dEsams are running lack of funds.

Many of the divya dEsams in the nava thirupathi area do have

only half a kilo rice for " amuthu seythal " for the day and

nothing else.

 

When adiyEN murmured slowly to my mother and bAryAL that we

never had the bAgyam of prasAdham so far, the priest in thiru

puLingudi (Sri kAycchina vEndhan perumAL, incidentally whom

i worshipped everyday in my nitya arAdhanam, the last few

months " manaseekamAga " ) divya dEsam offered some of that

day's and also mentioned that that is all they have perumAL

for a given day. It was pathetic. I hope that TVS also builds

up some " Arak kattaLai " or trust for supporting the nitya

ArAdhanai in a decent and sustainable manner. If any of you

who are members of this group who also belong to any one of

the nava thirupathis or anyother divya dEsam that is situated

in a village, or if you know anyone who is a native of these

divya dEsams, then they must take up the responsibility to

support the temple near their home.
