My dear friends and likeminded persons

 

A REPORT ON THE MEETINGS ATTENDED DURING THE LAST WEEK IN USA

 

Dr Umesh Shuklaji invited me to attend the Hindu Mandir Executive

Conference organized by Vishwa Hindu parishad of USA which was held

at New Jersey from 10 th August to 12th August 2007.

Representatives of 120 temples plus of USA attended and a good

number of Swamijis too. In the overcrowded hall, a number of

resolutions were passed and I have particularly referred myself to

the youth program. The next generation demanded for proper

recognition of their capacities and somehow during the overheated

discussions, the next generation people tried to blame their parents

for insisting to upkeep the Indian Tradition. They went up to the

stage of saying that their parents are responsible for bringing them

to USA and only on account of their parents coming to USA, the

younger generation were forced to remain under the influence of the

foreign tendency.

 

It was my turn to interfere to say that their parents entered USA

due to the then prevailing conditions in India and it was not their

intention to dilute the traditional values, but surely it was their

intention to create the best educational opportunities to their

children. A great amount of sacrifice was existed when their

parents preferred USA. Any way either in USA or India, none would

prefer guiding for diluting the traditional values and it is not

proper on the part of the children to give up the same or disrespect

the Hindu system of life just for the reason of their stay in USA.

 

There were other points too which I shared with the representatives

of VHP and it was in the following manner

 

1) Since the temple are growing only now and it is in their

initial stage, temple executives should not encourage saivism or

vaishanvism or some such branches and should not also encourage the

divisions and sub-divisions for the mean interest of personal images

of some Swamijis.

 

2) All temples should educate the devotees or should circulate

literature that all Gods of Hindu Religion are one and devotees

should develop respect towards the branches of the religion instead

of disowning some Hindu Gods and other branches.

 

3) Every Saturday and Sunday, all temples should conduct chanting

of both Shri Lalitha Sahasranaama and Shri Vishnu Sahasranaama on a

day of their convenience OR they should encourage the devotees to

chant either of them on Saturday and the other on Sunday.

 

4) I have assured them that I am prepared to collect the

literature on different languages of each temple need and send them

for distribution free of cost on behalf of WORLD BRAHMAN

ORGANISATION. I requested them to place an indent on need base.

 

5) I have also requested the temple authorities to insist the

Swamijis and the Visitors from India while entertaining any program

in the temple that the visitor should convey a message that all

HINDU RELIGION LORDS ARE EQUAL and all of them should be equally

placed.

 

6) I have further requested the temple authorities to collect data

relating to economically backward people coming from India and

staying in their command area, and who are suffering here for some

reason or the other. They should also maintain a list so that those

who can afford can adopt them and support them on need base.

 

HH Shri Viswayogi Viswamji of Guntur attended the concluding session

and passed on a message that all of should strive for Viswa Shanthi

and Unity seeking peace and purposeful living.

 

The Next Program of the day by Brahman Samaj of North America (BSNA)

 

After the conclusion of the HMEC, I visited the house of Dr Umesh

Shuklaji where he arranged a meeting of a good number of members of

Brahman Samaj of North America (BSNA) and each of us shared our

views.

 

I was given an opportunity by the New Jersey Chapter of BSNA to give

a three hour long discourse on the " Scientific Application of Indian

Traditional Systems " for the benefit of all and particularly of

younger generation. Dr Umesh Shukla and Mrs Shukla arranged for a

nice dinner and the meeting thus concluded while every member

dedicatedly confirming that they would stand for the Unity of all.

 

I am making preparation for leaving to India as scheduled for

meeting of Brahman associations in different parts of India.

 

I shall be back again

soon.
