Save Ram Sethu!
Please help us get this information into the hands of as many people as possible by forwarding it to your entire email list of family and friends.
An Emergency Call to Save RAM SETHU! CLICK HERE
Sethusamudram Shipping Canal Project (SSCP) will destroy Ram Sethu and turn the Gulf of Mannar into an Ecological disaster.
We are sending out this S.O.S. to you in the hope that we can all come together in body, mind or prayer to help Save Ram Sethu.
The Supreme Court of India is hearing the Sethusamudram (SSCP) case from July 22 to July 29, 2008. The Indian Government headed by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has filed an affidavit seeking permission to go ahead with the SSCP and submitting that the archaeological survey (ASI) is not important. The Government's turnaround - considering it had earlier suggested that the ASI is imperative – clearly indicates that the Government seems to be in a rush to execute a project that was first conceived not less than 144 years ago!
If the Supreme Court passes this case, the dredging of Ram Sethu is expected to begin right away. There are unconfirmed reports that Ram Sethu might be blasted with dynamite if dredging becomes difficult on the rough sea.
Save Ram Sethu Campaign takes strong exception to a wholly incorrect interpretation -an extreme distortion – of Hindu scriptures by lawyer Fali S. Nariman, who represented the Government of India before the Supreme Court on July 22 and reportedly quoted from “Kamba Ramayana” and "Padmapurana" and said that the destruction of the bridge by Lord Rama is mentioned therein.
Aside from the distastefulness of a lawyer of Mr. Nariman’s stature distorting Hindu scriptures in an attempt to obtain favorable orders, Mr. Nariman’s reference to Lord Rama as “superman” is blasphemous, scurrilous and an extreme distortion which we find insulting to our Hindu faith. Mr. Nariman should retract his statements and apologize to the Hindus.
Some months ago, the lawyers representing the Government had shocked the entire world by making a submission to the Supreme Court denying the very existence of Lord Rama. Now it has come up with a distorted interpretation from “Kamba Ramayana” and "Padmapurana" to justify the destruction of Ram Sethu for the sake of the SSCP. It seems to escape the Government’s attention that historically or otherwise Ram Sethu is associated with Lord Rama and sacred to millions of Hindus in India and abroad.
We must act now to protect our sacred heritage from greedy, mindless destruction. We are imploring you to do the right thing - and the right thing is preserving Ram Sethu for current and future generations. Men with machines can destroy in minutes what can never be replaced. Do we want to be remembered as the people who were able to stop the destruction, or the people who allowed it to proceed?
We are a proud and ancient civilization and we must rise to the occasion against all impossibilities. We must salvage and wrest our rightful and magnificent heritage from the forces of ignorance, arrogance and greed.
When the Taliban destroyed the Bamiyan statues, the world reacted with horror at their act of barbarism. What the Indian Government proposes to do to Ram Sethu is no less barbaric.
This threat to our religion is more than real and right on our threshold!
Save RAM SETHU! Please Act NOW! CLICK HERE
We are looking for one million supporters willing to take a stand and not allow a syndicate of politicians and vested interests defile our sacred heritage. Can we count on you? Click here to send a letter to the Prime Minister and to the Supreme Court of India.
Please call Indian Government representatives, Embassies and High Commissions in your area and register your opposition by phone and fax.
Please forward this to others, especially the youth, and ask them to get involved in protecting our religion.
Let the Indian Government know that destroying our Religious heritage for the profit of a few is unethical and the Government has no right to indiscriminately & selectively destroy it. Ram Sethu is our heritage and our history and we owe its protection and preservation to our future generations. The world is waiting and watching.

Marxist ministers try to change Tradition in Guruvayur
Bhagavane Guruvayoorappa ! Pranams to all Bhakthas ,
Guruvayoor Devaprasnam had predicted that, one Temple elephant would die shortly . See the last point no.61 which is given below). Yesterday , the Elephant Unnikrishnan died after being struck by lightning . See Photo Below
The recent ill-omens have confirmed that , things are not going well in Guruayoor . The atheist Devaswom Board is willfully corrupting the sacred "Kshetra Acharas" ( Temple Traditions) . Guruvayoorappa-Bhaktas are worried about their dearest Temple and are ardently praying for Bhagavan's divine intervention to save it .
Evil Conspiracy
Some of the recent evil activities of the atheists dominated Guruvayoor Devaswam Board, are listed below for your information :
The sacred temple-art "Krishnanattam" ( which must be staged only in Guruvayoor Temple because Bhagavan enters the stage when it is played ) was staged outside
2 days back, ie, in the Guest house to entertain "cultural" minister M.A.Baby , revenue Minister Rajendran and their gang of atheists . I don't want to pollute the space here by detailing about these "VIPs" and the Desecration of "Krishnanattam" .
Unauthorized moves to replace the 100 year old Deepasthambam . ( Though the Board denies it in public , the fraud is in the final stage) .
Efforts to create divisions within the "Thanthri" family in order to overocme the objections of authorized Thanthri Brahmasree Chennas Raman Namboodirippadu .
Sabotaging the "Pariharakriyas" ( Atonements stated in Devaprasnam) .
Repeated non-compliance of Guruvayoorappan's will ( Which were revealed in Devaprasnam. See the details below) .
This situation is most serious . Atheists have seized control of the Temple and they are pretending as "well wishers" . They are conspiring to desecrate the Temple in order to promote Communism .
Wake up Bhakthas
Our most powerful weapon is " Samooha Prarthana" ( group prayers) . We all must beg to Guruvayoorappan for His direct intervention to crush the Temple destroyers and save the Temple.
May Guruvayoorappan listen to our prayers !!!!

dated 8-Nov-2007 .
Krishna, Guruvayoorappa ! , Dear Bhakthas ,
The Eight day long Guruvayoor "Ashtmangala Devaprasnam" was successfully completed yesterday ( 07 Nov. ) .
What was performed yesterday was verifying Guruvayoorappan's will on the proposed remedial measures . As solution to each of the discovered shortcomings , an offering was proposed with a prayer to the concerned Devatha , and verified His/Her acceptance or rejection, through the analysis of "Rasi" .
1. At first , praying Guruvayoorappan , it was proposed to submit at His Sopanam, "Bhadradeepam" in Silver pot with "Suvarnakshatha" inside it , Palpayasam worth Rs.1001, "Thrikkaivenna" , "Thrumudimala" , Milk, and Sugar . These will be submitted by the Temple's Ooralan , Othikkanmar , Keezh-Shaanthis, and Other traditional Staff . And after submitting it they all will admit their mistakes to Bhagavan , apologize to Him , and prostrate at His feet , seeking Bhagavan's forgiveness . In the "Rasi" , "Vyazham" ( Guru) was found in the 9th house . This auspicious revelation confirmed that , Guruvayoorappan is satisfied with the proposed Offerings and Remedial Measures .
2. In the Mammiyoor Temple , "Rudradhara" & "Pinvilakku" to Siva, "Palpayasam" to Vishnu , and relevant offerings to the other Devathas in Mammiyoor and to the Deities in associated Temples , other nearby Temples, Kannur Idakkad Temple, and Irinjalakkuda Koodal Manikyam Temple , were proposed . It was found to be acceptable to Them .
Remedial Measures
The following Remedial measures were proposed and found to be acceptable to Bhagavan and the Upadevathas :
1. The Defective Golden Flag Pole shall be replaces with a New one , within next (13) months .
2. In the Devawom Guest house compound , a "Valkannadi " ( Mirror Image) to be consecrated on the "Karimkali Thara"( Platform for Karimkali Deity) . And yearly Pooja to be offered there after laying Padmam ( lotus) .
3. On the Ekadasi day , the procession to the East should halt at it's previous end point " Theeyyar Ambalam" , offer salutations there before proceeding to the Parthasarathy Temple for "Irakkiyezhunnallathu" .
4. To eliminate the "Sarpa-Dosham" ( ill-effects caused by Serpents) , a golden Sepent-image , and "Puttum" shall be submitted at "Pambumekkavu Mana " ( Temple-Abode of Serpents) .
5. Symbolic Offering of Elephant to be performed .
6. To eliminate the ill- effects for the misdeeds of all those associated with the Temple , Devaswom board should conduct every year, "Maha-Sudarshana Homam" ( 96,000 chants) , "Thila-havanam" (1,00,000 chants) , "Sukrutha-Homam" and 12 days long "Ganapthy-Homams" . Also , "Kalkachikichuttu" ( with 108 "Ashtothara shatanamam") and "Vilichucholli-prayachittham" will be carried out . As a remedy for various types of Curses , "Murahomam" will be performed every year . Also "Maha-Mrithunjaya Homam" and "Bhagavathy Seva" shall be performed every year .
7. Every year , a "Sukrutha-Homam" shall be performed with 24, 000 chants of Gayathri-Manthra , to increase the "Sukrutha" of Temple .
8. Thanthri , himself shall decide and perform his "Prayachittham" ( atonement) to Bhagavan .
9. Any money offered on the "Thrippadi" ( step to Sreekovil) , belongs to Bhagavan .
10. As an atonement of Go-sapa ( Curse of Cows) it was first proposed to offer a Cow to Bhagavathy . But , it was not found sufficient . So , a golden image of Cow will be offered to Bhagavathy .
Note :
It was re-confirmed that , Bhagavan does not accept any amendment to the existing "Kshetra-Acharas" .
Before , the conclusion of Devaprasnam two Members of the Devaswom Managing Committee raised objections . Mr. M.M.Vasudevan alleged that , some of the findings and remedial measures revealed in the Devaprasnam will pull us to 200 years back just for the sake of Acharas . Prof. T.R. Harry stated that , the Girl-students in his college had asked him whether Churidar could be permitted in side the Temple .
The Lead Jyothishi , Padmanabha Sharma calmly pointed out that , the Dress Codes of Educational institutions are not suitable for Temple . While coming to the Temple for Darshan , all Bhakthas should follow the Dress Code that is prescribed for the Temple . He reiterated that , Guruvayoorappan rejects all sorts of changes to the time-proven "Kshetra-Acharas" . Also , he invited all skeptics to come to the dais to have a debate on the basis of Vedic Injunctions .
The above said , two Members ( who are Marxist Nominees in the Director Board) started yelling "Times have progressed . Churidar must be allowed inside the Temple " .
This infuriated the Bhakthas present there . They declared in one voice " What matters is Guruvayoorappan's will alone . And not the wishes of Others . We do not need Bhagavan-Haters in Guruvayoor Temple , anymore " .
As the situation became vociferous , and the mentioned Atheists were looking for an escape route , Padmanabha Sharma , the Lead Jyothishi pacified the Bhakthas , assuring them that Guruvayoorappan's will shall prevail .
Findings ( 31 Oct. -- 06 Nov. ) .
Summary
Bhagavan is upset over the violation of "Kshethra Acharas" , Desecration of Temple , Immoral activities inside the Temple , etc by God-haters . Possible,
Bomb/Fire/Riot might cause mass killing in or outside the Temple .
Thanthri is Bhagavan's Representative . What he says is to be accepted by everyone .
Golden Flag Pole is defective . Temple- Elephants may pull it down .
No entry to Non-Hindus . Only those having full faith in Deity worship and Kshethra-Acharas , shall enter the Temple.
No change in the Temple's Dress Code . Churidar is unacceptable . It has already caused violence by Elephants . It's continuation will cause death and destruction to all responsible for it .
Upadeva Ganesha's Moorthy and Temple are defective . Renovation , required for His Temple .
Bhgagavan's Cows were stolen and killed . Serious Go-Shapa will cause calamities .
Guruvayoor Temple should be treated as an important Shrine in the whole Country and any adverse thing happening to the Temple would have its fallout on the entire Nation .
Deratiled Findings
1. Bhagavan stressed the need to rectify certain structural defects found in the golden Flag Pole of the Temple . It's foundation is damaged due to the attack of insects . Flag Pole is the abode of Bhagavan's vehicle Garuda . It has been dislocated and tilted . If one measures from it's footing to "veeraknadam" (upper portion) , the dislocation can be found out . if the defective Flag Pole is not replaced with a new one , the present Flag Pole will be pulled down by Temple Elephants .
2. Bhagavan wants the Temple to set up Facilities for the study of Sanskrit and Vedas . The Vedas are very important to Guruvayoor Temple . Necessary Facilities should be provided for higher education of Sanskrit .
3. Ordinary Bhaktas should not face any hurdle in worshipping Bhagavan due to restrictions made in the name of VIP visits . At present , such difficulties exist and certain Temple staff are behaving rudely with the Bhkthas . This is absolutely unacceptable . Bhagavan is always pleased by the Bhakthy of Common man .
4. Bhagavan does not want , more than one `Udayasthamana Pooja' in a day .
5. The Building in side the Temple premises can be taller than the Temple . But it's floor level should be lower than that of Temple . On such floor , any number of storeys can be constructed . This has no relation with the height of Flag Pole . Considering the roads around the Temple as boundary limits, this condition should be adhered to .
6. Materials once used for "Thulabharam" can be used again . However, the decayed materials should not be used .
7. The water from the "Manikkinar" ( Temple's well ) , can be used for Thulabharam .
8. The future of Bhagavan's presence in Guruvayoor Temple is bright . The present unpleasant issues can be resolved by "Prayrachitham" (Atonement rituals) . These remedial measures must be completed within one year .
( Note - : Some Devotees brought to the Jyothishis' attention , criticisms in the media against the Jyothishis . But the Jyothishis preferred not to discuss it with Bhagavan . They stated " This Devaprasnam is being conducted strictly according to the Scriptural Injunctions and associated Vedic Shaastras . We are ready to answer any doubts on this . In stead of that , if some one wants to arrest us , we are helpless . )
The "Suvarna-Dwajam" ( Golden Flag Pole ) is not vertical and it is in damaged condition . It's present position too is not correct . This may cause Serious Dangers .
Thanthri ( Temple-Acharya ) is not issuing necessary instructions on time. He feels that, what he says will upset the concerned Authorities ; especially since , what he told in the past were ignored totally . Bhagavan is furious over this situation .
Some Devotees pointed out that , Udayastamana Pooja is performed for a single person only ; And therefore is it necessary to close and open the Sreekovil-Door for it ? .
Bhagavan replied that , Poojas are not for one Person only . More Udayasthamana Poojas and Thanthric rites are for increasing the `Deva çhaithanyam' (aura) .
The "Pillaru-Thalappoly " ( Ritualistic Offerings on a plate , by children) , being conducted by the local group , is very satisfying to Bhagavathy ( Upadevi , Durga) .
The Turmeric powder being offered to Bhagavathy , has less purity .
Bhagavathy does not need "Kunkuma-archana" .
In the Devawom guest house , a "Karimkaalithara" ( platform for `Karimkaali –Deity ' ) is to be provided .
A particular person from the " Othikkan " (Traditional Poojari) family, is continuously showing disrespect to the position of Thanthri . Bhagavan is upset over this . If this is not stopped immediately , there will be dire consequences .
In the previous Devawom Cow-Shelter "Kaaveedu" , some Cows were killed . In order to avoid it's ill-effects in the new Cow-Shelter , "Kalasa Pooja" and other atonements to be performed for Bhagavathy .
Some "KeezhShaantis" ( Assistant Poojaris) are not maintaining the necessary personal purity, required for Poojas . This is repeated many times . This will cause calamities in the "Thidappally" ( Platform in front of Sanctum Sanctorum) itself .
Some Temple Staff are not performing their duties properly and are shifting it's blame to others . They are going for other assignments that fetches better income . Also , there is serious infighting among the Staff .
Quoting verses from the "Kapilopadesa in Bhagavatham" , Justice Radhakrishna Menon raised doubts about the previous days revelations on rejection of Churidar . The Jyothishis re-confirmed with evidence that, Bhagavan does not like any amendment to the time-proven "Kshetra-Aachaaras" , in such unauthorized ways .
Change in Dress Code
( History : On 27th July, Guruvayur Devaswom had relaxed the traditional Temple Dress code to allow Women Devotees to wear Churidar inside the Temple . Earlier, women could wear only dresses such as sari, set-mundu, half-sari and skirt and blouse to the Temple. Even if women wore kurtas to the shrine, they had to wear a `mundu' over the pyjamas. However , soon after the Marxist led agitations seeking amendment of "Kshetra Aachaaras' ( Temple customs) , the Marxist Devaswom Board President announced his decision to allow Churidar inside the Temple. Later this matter was taken up in the Board meeting wherein the Thantri sated his objection .
But, the Board flatly refused to revoke it's public announcement and ordered the Thantri to shut up.)
In the wake of Guruvayoorappan's objections to the changes in `Kshetra-Acharas ` , the recent change in Dress code was checked on the fifth day of `Devaprasnam' .
During the `Acharyavaranakriya' , when a new cloth was brought , the Board Official instructed to cut it and fetch a small piece out of it . When the cloth was cut , it became ` Gana-vastra' which according to Jyothisha is used for post-death rituals . Based on this `nimitham' ( divine syndrome) , Jyothishis analysed further to find out Bhagavan's will . And the following was revealed :
Devaswam officials had issued a strict instruction to the Thanthri and all concerned to allow Churidar inside the Temple .
Thanthri was not allowed to raise his objection . Because of this , he could not seek Bhagavan's permission or conduct the Social Prayer necessary for seeking Bhagavan's consent for the change of ` Aachaara `. Therefore , instead of a natural change , Dewaswam's will was imposed on Thantri and Bhagavan . Next day, onwards Women started entering the Temple wearing Churidar which was unacceptable to Bhagavan . This resulted in the violent behavior of Temple-Elephants , Falling down of ` Thidambu'( Festival Deity) , etc . If this non-obedience is continued, it will be harmful to the Person wearing the Churidar and their families . It could result in premature deaths . Even, it could even harm the human kind as a whole .
Guruvayoorappan wants His Bhaktas to wear simple traditional dress inside the Temple . Dresses like Churidar is `paradesi ` ( foreign) , which is unacceptable to Bhagavan.
Devaswom Shelters for Old and Orphan Bhakthas
Bhagavan reiterated His desire to accommodate and protect His Old and Orphan Bhakthas in a Shelter which should be constructed by Devaswom . He pointed out that , according to His instructions earlier , daily `Prasada Ooottu `( Feeding of the Bhakthas) was started for 500 Bhakthas . Now it is provided daily for 5000 Bhakthas . Likewise , the Shelter will also be a success . While this was discussed , Bhagavatha Hamsam Malliyoor Shankaran Namboothiri ( Guruvayoorappan's legendary Bhakta) , entered the dais of Devaprasnam . Jyothishis found this as the divine omen of Bhagavan''s presence there and Bhaktavalsala's compassion for His Devotees .
In near future, the cloth of a person arriving for Darshan will be caught fire in the Temple . Also, in the Temple premises , one's wife will be killed by an Elephant or Cow .
Devaswom Board must consider `Krishnanaattam' (which is very dear to Bhagavan) , as Sacred . In last two years , during Vijayadasami , the 9 days long `Krishnanaattam' is not conducted by Devaswam Board . Devotees are offering it .
Devaswam must conduct this with faith .
The "Koothambalam" (Auditorium for Temple Arts) is as important as the Temple . It must be cleaned daily and an Oil lamp to be lit there .
The continuing atonement for removing the previous Temple-Acharyas Puliyannoor
Family long back , to be performed properly . It is not carried out decently now .
The Garland for Sreekovil , to be prepared in the Temple itself .
Those working inside the Temple , must use decent Language .
Efforts must be made to keep the Temple clean .
The Daily Ritual " Olavaayana " ( A Warrier temple-staff writes the Day's Income and Expenses on a Palm Leaf and Reads it out to Bhagavan before the closure of Temple , every night ) , has been stopped . Instead it is issued in writing to Him , as a token gesture . Bhagavan is furious at this Cheating . Right from tonight (03 Nov) , "Olavaayana" must be resumed .
The existing "Achaaraas'( Rituals and Practices of the Temple) can not be debated and amended by any ` Acharya-Sabha' ( Assembly of Vedic Acharyas and Experts) . They are to be adhered to as it is .
The `Guru-parambara' relationship in the Temple, has been lost .
The `Thidambu' ( Festival Moorthy) has fallen down . For that, `prayachitha' atonement was not done properly .
Bhagavan is unhappy over the financial burden being imposed on His Bhakthas , by
Devaswom Board's frequent increases in the material cost of Offerings .
`Prasadam' is being sold in the Shops outside the Temple.
There are defects in the Moorthy of Ganapathy , the Upadeva . Waste materials are stockpiled inside His temple . His displeasure will cause irritation to the Temple Elephants . Renovation of His temple needs to be done .
The Construction works inside the Temple premises , were carried out without Bhagavan's consent . There are defects in those works . In matters of `Vastu' , the opinions of more than one Expert need to be sought .
The relocated positions of Upadevas are not compatible with that of Flag staff .
There are reductions in the Poojas .
The Temple Pond has become impure . Many deaths have occurred therein already . It is not maintained as Sacred .
Another Temple Pond having the Divine presence, was filled up totally .
The sacred Ashoka tree near the Bhagavathy Temple was cut down . It's atonement needs to be done .
The Coconuts once offered to Bhagavathy are offered to Her again and again to save cost and time . This is unacceptable to Her .
Sastha , the Upadeva is unhappy due to lapses in His rituals .
Although , the Temple Administrators and their Masters will try to block the proposed remedial measures , Bhagavan's grace will help to complete it .
Guruvayoorappan is unhappy over the lapses in the " Kshethra-Acharas" ( Temple-Customs) . As a result, Bomb/Fire/Riots might cause mass deaths inside or just outside the Temple .
`Deva-Chaithanyam' ( aura) is intact on the Deity which is unique .
There will be sharp increase in the inflow of Devotees and Temple revenue .
Guruvayoor Temple should be treated as an important Shrine in the whole Country and any adverse thing happening to the Temple would have its fallout on the entire Nation .
Bhagavan's money is being misused by the concerned Officials .
Certain Staff are involving in `Adharmic' ( unrighteous) activities inside Temple premises .
Entry on Non-Hindus inside Temple , is unacceptable to Bhagavan . Devotees having firm faith in Deity worship and temple customs are the ones to enter the Temple .
The Thanthri ( Acharya of the temple) , is not allowed by the Devaswom Officials to perform his duties properly . Because of this , Bhagavan is unhappy and the Thantri is very sad . Thanthri's Instructions are being ignored by the Administrators .
Therefore, he is not giving anymore instructions .
Temple Officials are misusing the Temple wealth . Both the previous and present Officials are guilty of sinful activities . Some Staff are entering the Temple after consuming Liquor .
There is impurity in the `Nivedaya- items' being offered to Bhagavan .
Bhagvan's favorite , Milk and Plantain Nivedyam have been stopped .
In the Temple's Gokulam , Bhagavan;'s Cows are not looked after properly . Theft and even killing of Cows have occurred . `Go-Sapa' (Curse of Cows) exists .
Within a few months , one Temple Elephant will die .
Please forward this message to as many Bhakthas as possible . Let everyone pray Sree Guruvayoorappan .

Deratiled Findings
1. Bhagavan stressed the need to rectify certain structural defects found in the golden Flag Pole of the Temple . It's foundation is damaged due to the attack of insects . Flag Pole is the abode of Bhagavan's vehicle Garuda . It has been dislocated and tilted . If one measures from it's footing to "veeraknadam" (upper portion) , the dislocation can be found out . if the defective Flag Pole is not replaced with a new one , the present Flag Pole will be pulled down by Temple Elephants .
2. Bhagavan wants the Temple to set up Facilities for the study of Sanskrit and Vedas . The Vedas are very important to Guruvayoor Temple . Necessary Facilities should be provided for higher education of Sanskrit .
3. Ordinary Bhaktas should not face any hurdle in worshipping Bhagavan due to restrictions made in the name of VIP visits . At present , such difficulties exist and certain Temple staff are behaving rudely with the Bhkthas . This is absolutely unacceptable . Bhagavan is always pleased by the Bhakthy of Common man .
4. Bhagavan does not want , more than one `Udayasthamana Pooja' in a day .
5. The Building in side the Temple premises can be taller than the Temple . But it's floor level should be lower than that of Temple . On such floor , any number of storeys can be constructed . This has no relation with the height of Flag Pole . Considering the roads around the Temple as boundary limits, this condition should be adhered to .
6. Materials once used for "Thulabharam" can be used again . However, the decayed materials should not be used .
7. The water from the "Manikkinar" ( Temple's well ) , can be used for Thulabharam .
8. The future of Bhagavan's presence in Guruvayoor Temple is bright . The present unpleasant issues can be resolved by "Prayrachitham" (Atonement rituals) . These remedial measures must be completed within one year .
( Note - : Some Devotees brought to the Jyothishis' attention , criticisms in the media against the Jyothishis . But the Jyothishis preferred not to discuss it with Bhagavan . They stated " This Devaprasnam is being conducted strictly according to the Scriptural Injunctions and associated Vedic Shaastras . We are ready to answer any doubts on this . In stead of that , if some one wants to arrest us , we are helpless . )
The "Suvarna-Dwajam" ( Golden Flag Pole ) is not vertical and it is in damaged condition . It's present position too is not correct . This may cause Serious Dangers .
Thanthri ( Temple-Acharya ) is not issuing necessary instructions on time. He feels that, what he says will upset the concerned Authorities ; especially since , what he told in the past were ignored totally . Bhagavan is furious over this situation .
Some Devotees pointed out that , Udayastamana Pooja is performed for a single person only ; And therefore is it necessary to close and open the Sreekovil-Door for it ? .
Bhagavan replied that , Poojas are not for one Person only . More Udayasthamana Poojas and Thanthric rites are for increasing the `Deva çhaithanyam' (aura) .
The "Pillaru-Thalappoly " ( Ritualistic Offerings on a plate , by children) , being conducted by the local group , is very satisfying to Bhagavathy ( Upadevi , Durga) .
The Turmeric powder being offered to Bhagavathy , has less purity .
Bhagavathy does not need "Kunkuma-archana" .
In the Devawom guest house , a "Karimkaalithara" ( platform for `Karimkaali –Deity ' ) is to be provided .
A particular person from the " Othikkan " (Traditional Poojari) family, is continuously showing disrespect to the position of Thanthri . Bhagavan is upset over this . If this is not stopped immediately , there will be dire consequences .
In the previous Devawom Cow-Shelter "Kaaveedu" , some Cows were killed . In order to avoid it's ill-effects in the new Cow-Shelter , "Kalasa Pooja" and other atonements to be performed for Bhagavathy .
Some "KeezhShaantis" ( Assistant Poojaris) are not maintaining the necessary personal purity, required for Poojas . This is repeated many times . This will cause calamities in the "Thidappally" ( Platform in front of Sanctum Sanctorum) itself .
Some Temple Staff are not performing their duties properly and are shifting it's blame to others . They are going for other assignments that fetches better income . Also , there is serious infighting among the Staff .
Quoting verses from the "Kapilopadesa in Bhagavatham" , Justice Radhakrishna Menon raised doubts about the previous days revelations on rejection of Churidar . The Jyothishis re-confirmed with evidence that, Bhagavan does not like any amendment to the time-proven "Kshetra-Aachaaras" , in such unauthorized ways .
Change in Dress Code
( History : On 27th July, Guruvayur Devaswom had relaxed the traditional Temple Dress code to allow Women Devotees to wear Churidar inside the Temple . Earlier, women could wear only dresses such as sari, set-mundu, half-sari and skirt and blouse to the Temple. Even if women wore kurtas to the shrine, they had to wear a `mundu' over the pyjamas. However , soon after the Marxist led agitations seeking amendment of "Kshetra Aachaaras' ( Temple customs) , the Marxist Devaswom Board President announced his decision to allow Churidar inside the Temple. Later this matter was taken up in the Board meeting wherein the Thantri sated his objection .
But, the Board flatly refused to revoke it's public announcement and ordered the Thantri to shut up.)
In the wake of Guruvayoorappan's objections to the changes in `Kshetra-Acharas ` , the recent change in Dress code was checked on the fifth day of `Devaprasnam' .
During the `Acharyavaranakriya' , when a new cloth was brought , the Board Official instructed to cut it and fetch a small piece out of it . When the cloth was cut , it became ` Gana-vastra' which according to Jyothisha is used for post-death rituals . Based on this `nimitham' ( divine syndrome) , Jyothishis analysed further to find out Bhagavan's will . And the following was revealed :
Devaswam officials had issued a strict instruction to the Thanthri and all concerned to allow Churidar inside the Temple .
Thanthri was not allowed to raise his objection . Because of this , he could not seek Bhagavan's permission or conduct the Social Prayer necessary for seeking Bhagavan's consent for the change of ` Aachaara `. Therefore , instead of a natural change , Dewaswam's will was imposed on Thantri and Bhagavan . Next day, onwards Women started entering the Temple wearing Churidar which was unacceptable to Bhagavan . This resulted in the violent behavior of Temple-Elephants , Falling down of ` Thidambu'( Festival Deity) , etc . If this non-obedience is continued, it will be harmful to the Person wearing the Churidar and their families . It could result in premature deaths . Even, it could even harm the human kind as a whole .
Guruvayoorappan wants His Bhaktas to wear simple traditional dress inside the Temple . Dresses like Churidar is `paradesi ` ( foreign) , which is unacceptable to Bhagavan.
Devaswom Shelters for Old and Orphan Bhakthas
Bhagavan reiterated His desire to accommodate and protect His Old and Orphan Bhakthas in a Shelter which should be constructed by Devaswom . He pointed out that , according to His instructions earlier , daily `Prasada Ooottu `( Feeding of the Bhakthas) was started for 500 Bhakthas . Now it is provided daily for 5000 Bhakthas . Likewise , the Shelter will also be a success . While this was discussed , Bhagavatha Hamsam Malliyoor Shankaran Namboothiri ( Guruvayoorappan's legendary Bhakta) , entered the dais of Devaprasnam . Jyothishis found this as the divine omen of Bhagavan''s presence there and Bhaktavalsala's compassion for His Devotees .
In near future, the cloth of a person arriving for Darshan will be caught fire in the Temple . Also, in the Temple premises , one's wife will be killed by an Elephant or Cow .
Devaswom Board must consider `Krishnanaattam' (which is very dear to Bhagavan) , as Sacred . In last two years , during Vijayadasami , the 9 days long `Krishnanaattam' is not conducted by Devaswam Board . Devotees are offering it .
Devaswam must conduct this with faith .
The "Koothambalam" (Auditorium for Temple Arts) is as important as the Temple . It must be cleaned daily and an Oil lamp to be lit there .
The continuing atonement for removing the previous Temple-Acharyas Puliyannoor
Family long back , to be performed properly . It is not carried out decently now .
The Garland for Sreekovil , to be prepared in the Temple itself .
Those working inside the Temple , must use decent Language .
Efforts must be made to keep the Temple clean .
The Daily Ritual " Olavaayana " ( A Warrier temple-staff writes the Day's Income and Expenses on a Palm Leaf and Reads it out to Bhagavan before the closure of Temple , every night ) , has been stopped . Instead it is issued in writing to Him , as a token gesture . Bhagavan is furious at this Cheating . Right from tonight (03 Nov) , "Olavaayana" must be resumed .
The existing "Achaaraas'( Rituals and Practices of the Temple) can not be debated and amended by any ` Acharya-Sabha' ( Assembly of Vedic Acharyas and Experts) . They are to be adhered to as it is .
The `Guru-parambara' relationship in the Temple, has been lost .
The `Thidambu' ( Festival Moorthy) has fallen down . For that, `prayachitha' atonement was not done properly .
Bhagavan is unhappy over the financial burden being imposed on His Bhakthas , by
Devaswom Board's frequent increases in the material cost of Offerings .
`Prasadam' is being sold in the Shops outside the Temple.
There are defects in the Moorthy of Ganapathy , the Upadeva . Waste materials are stockpiled inside His temple . His displeasure will cause irritation to the Temple Elephants . Renovation of His temple needs to be done .
The Construction works inside the Temple premises , were carried out without Bhagavan's consent . There are defects in those works . In matters of `Vastu' , the opinions of more than one Expert need to be sought .
The relocated positions of Upadevas are not compatible with that of Flag staff .
There are reductions in the Poojas .
The Temple Pond has become impure . Many deaths have occurred therein already . It is not maintained as Sacred .
Another Temple Pond having the Divine presence, was filled up totally .
The sacred Ashoka tree near the Bhagavathy Temple was cut down . It's atonement needs to be done .
The Coconuts once offered to Bhagavathy are offered to Her again and again to save cost and time . This is unacceptable to Her .
Sastha , the Upadeva is unhappy due to lapses in His rituals .
Although , the Temple Administrators and their Masters will try to block the proposed remedial measures , Bhagavan's grace will help to complete it .
Guruvayoorappan is unhappy over the lapses in the " Kshethra-Acharas" ( Temple-Customs) . As a result, Bomb/Fire/Riots might cause mass deaths inside or just outside the Temple .
`Deva-Chaithanyam' ( aura) is intact on the Deity which is unique .
There will be sharp increase in the inflow of Devotees and Temple revenue .
Guruvayoor Temple should be treated as an important Shrine in the whole Country and any adverse thing happening to the Temple would have its fallout on the entire Nation .
Bhagavan's money is being misused by the concerned Officials .
Certain Staff are involving in `Adharmic' ( unrighteous) activities inside Temple premises .
Entry on Non-Hindus inside Temple , is unacceptable to Bhagavan . Devotees having firm faith in Deity worship and temple customs are the ones to enter the Temple .
The Thanthri ( Acharya of the temple) , is not allowed by the Devaswom Officials to perform his duties properly . Because of this , Bhagavan is unhappy and the Thantri is very sad . Thanthri's Instructions are being ignored by the Administrators .
Therefore, he is not giving anymore instructions .
Temple Officials are misusing the Temple wealth . Both the previous and present Officials are guilty of sinful activities . Some Staff are entering the Temple after consuming Liquor .
There is impurity in the `Nivedaya- items' being offered to Bhagavan .
Bhagvan's favorite , Milk and Plantain Nivedyam have been stopped .
In the Temple's Gokulam , Bhagavan;'s Cows are not looked after properly . Theft and even killing of Cows have occurred . `Go-Sapa' (Curse of Cows) exists .
Within a few months , one Temple Elephant will die .
Please forward this message to as many Bhakthas as possible . Let everyone pray Sree Guruvayoorappan .
Om Namo Narayanaya !!! Please protect us , O Guruvayoor Bhagavan !!!!

Boycott Jodhaa Akbar Movie.
Namaskar
This is an awareness drive to awake people to boycott movie 'Jodhaa Akbar'.
The movie Jodhaa Akbar is a vile, vicious, and covert attempt by a mischievous producer/director from Bollywood (Mumbai) to make quick bucks by denigrating and vilifying the Hindu (Rajput) people. Sonia's (Antonia Maino) Congress government promptly banned 'Da Vinci Code' movie after Christians' protest, but this Secular (?) government is so insensitive about Hindus protest about 'Jodhaa-Akbar' !

Shameful Hindus who throng to watch Jodhaa-Akbar, a film which glorifies Hindu hater Cruel Akbar, are worthy of getting killed by Terrorists!
The movie Jodhaa Akbar is a vile, vicious, and covert attempt by a mischievous producer/director from Bollywood (Mumbai) to make quick bucks by denigrating and vilifying the Hindu (Rajput) people.
It is a deliberate distortion and pure fabrication of Indian history to glorify Akbar the (so-called) Great in dignified and noble terms. In reality, Akbar, in order to become a Ghazi (a slayer of kaffir – infidel) had cut into pieces his Guru Raja Hemchandra Vikramditya who had taught him how to wield the sword.
In barbarity and brutality, Akbar was so vindictive and merciless that he captured Raja Hemchandra's aged father; and on refusing to accept Islam executed him!
Akbar's grandfather Babar founded the Mughal dynasty. Babar was a direct descendent of Timur Lane from his father Barlas Turk's side and of Chengiz Khan the Mongol from his mother's side.
Akbar was no less tyrant than Timur Lane and Nader Shah. Akbar had a victory tower erected with the heads of the captured/surrendere d army of Raja Hemchandra Vikramaditiya after the second battle of Panipat.
Akbar had ordered massacre of 30,000 plus unarmed captive Hindu peasants after the fall of Chitod on Feb. 24, 1568.
Akbar was the most ungrateful person on Earth. He is alleged to have killed Bairam Khan, his guide and mentor – a Muslim
Despite nearly five centuries of Muslim occupation of India, Rajasthan in 1567 CE was still almost entirely Hindu. Akbar infiltrated the area by marrying into Rajasthan's ruling houses and by steadily capturing various forts on the eastern fringe of Rajputana. But the senior house of Rajasthan, Rana of Mewar proudly refused any alliance with Mughals. Akbar's army started a campaign for Chitod in 1567. When Raja Jai Mal was killed by Muslim army, thousands of Hindu (Rajput) women performed Jauhar (self-immolation) . We hold Akbar guilty of murdering thousands of Hindu women. This was the THIRD JAUHAR IN THE HISTORY OF CHITOD.
It is also an affront to a secular but largely Hindu nation to show an alien Muslim king romancing with a Hindu girl. Akbar was in reality an opportunist, sadist, and immoral person. Officially, Akbar had 300 wives and he is also alleged to have 5000 concubines in his harem. How can such a libertine be considered to have loved his wife?
Hindu Rajputs are a very proud and chivalrous people. Their sacrifices are unparalleled in the annals of Indian history. This movie is a surreptitious attempt to depict Muslim rulers who were followers of a culture alien to the Indians, in a favorable role and demean their native Hindus subjects. This trend to depict Muslim rulers in a magnificent manner was set by K. Asif's movie Mughul-e-Azam. We feel that even after 60 years after Independence, Director Ashutosh Gowarikar of Jodhaa Akbar is still suffering from the Stockholm syndrome.
It will be worthwhile if some investigative journalists go deep and find out the background and credentials of producer of this movie Ronnie Screwvala and Writer Haidar Ali, the involvement of Muslim underworld in financing this movie and complicity of Censor Board. Indian people should be more vigilant. The campaign of vilification carried on by some anti-Indian groups from Mumbai motivated by a malicious design to malign Hindu people should be stopped forthwith.
Hindus will never be able to forget the atrocities committed on Hindus by alien Muslim rulers. The Islamic period of the Indian History was the most suffocating and genocidal period as far as Hindus are concerned. It is a well-known fact of Indian History that 17,000 Hindu girls, in order to avoid molestation at the hands of Muslim marauders, had committed Jauhar – self-immolation.
It is a matter of disgrace that Indian school books under the successive Congress governments have been hiding the truth and distorting the Indian History.
Medieval India's History was written first by Muslims and then by the British. Both tried their best to falsify India's History by portraying Hindus in a bad light. However, a more objective history of India is slowly being written today which documents the depredations and genocide by Muslim rulers - often based on facts given by Muslim chroniclers of these rulers.
Hindus are waking up from deep slumber slowly but surely. The angry demonstrations in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, New Delhi, Lucknow and Patna against the movie Jodhaa Akbar are an indication of the things to follow on all India level. The Hindus of today are determined that a more objective history be available which portrays their life, culture and contributions in an appropriate and factual manner. They are determined to restore the dignity to Hindu Dharma at any cost.

CAUSES OF MUSLIM, CHRISTIAN PROBLEMS
Causes behind the Muslim and Christian problem and solution to it
a) The caste system & ostracism:
Basic intention behind caste system was division of labour. But later on it proved as poison to Hindu Society. Due to Saptabandis (SEVEN BANS) like Ban on water ( not to drink water from other castes), ban on intercaste marriages, ban on crossing Attock & Sea sailing. Ban on re-conversion of Muslims and Christians, Hindu world suffered a tremendous loss. Due to these differences based on castes, we the Hindus never became united against common foe. e.g. Molestation of Brahmin woman by Muslim did not generate sense of revenge amongst other cast and vice versa. Muslims and Christians naturally took full advantage of our such internal differences and enhanced their numerical power.
b) Ban on re-purification of forcibly converted Muslim and Christians:
During the 1000 years of Hindu-Muslim War we the Hindus got success in Military War but we failed miserably in religious war. We were successful in Military wars against Muslims but we failed to nullify the religious aggression done by Muslims and Christians on our society. What might be the reason behind this religious defeat ?
Whenever Muslim Army was victorious in war, they used to compel Hindu Men to accept either Islam or Death. They used to capture Hindu ladies and distribute amongst themselves by converting them to Islam through rapes.
After few years Hindu Army used to recapture that province but this victorious Hindu Army never forced any pure Muslim to accept Hindutva. Nay, they even didn't allow the forcibly converted Hindus to come back to their own Hindu religion. They didn't free the Hindu beauty from Muslim harems. Because they want to save their purity by banning on reconversion of polluted Hindu men and women. According to Hindus, such ban was the order of Hindu religion, so they strictly adhered to it. But this ban caused heavy numerical loss to Hindu society, Not only this but this ban caused heavy numerical profit to Muslim society. Hindu women in Muslim harems continued to give births to new Aurangzebs. These Aurangzebs further continued wars and molestation. This continued onwards unchecked and caused numerical imbalance between Hindus and Muslims. This is the very reason why we the Hindus were defeated in religious field although we were victorious in the battlefield.
c) Perverted conception of virtues:
In fact virtues or vices are only relative terms. No virtue can be unqualified and absolute under every circumstance or at every place. Be it said briefly that in practice or in ethical code a virtue should be called a virtue only to the extent to which it is useful to the best interest of human society. And the moment it begins to cause harm to mankind , it should be considered a vice and as such discarded forthwith.
To let go the vanquished and abjectly surrendering enemy is said to be a virtue in some religious books, so enemies like the ungrateful Mohammed Ghori & Rohial Najibkhan, were set free. And what did they do in return for this noble act of the Hindus ? The first brutally murdered his former benefactor, Prithviraj Chauhan, while the second conspired against the very Marathas, who let him go alive and brought about their unprecedented destruction at Panipat. Having only learnt by rote the maxim, to give food to the hungry and water to the thirsty is a virtue, the Hindus went on giving milk to the vile poisonous cobras and vipers ! Even while the Muslim demons were demolishing Hindu temples and breaking to pieces their holiest of idols like Somnath, they never wrecked their vengeance upon those wicked Muslims, even when they had golden opportunities to do so, nor did they ever take out a single brick from the walls of Masjids because their religious teachers and priests preached the virtue of not inflicting pain on the offender.
Every Hindu seems to have been made to suck along with his mother's milk, this Nectar - like advice that religious tolerance is a virtue. But nobody ever explains to him the essence of that precept. If that alien religion is also tolerant of our own religion, our tolerance towards it can be a virtue. But the Muslims and the Christians religions, which boldly proclaim it to be their religious duty to destroy most cruelly the Hindu religion and to eradicate from the face of this earth the Kafirs and the heathens, can never to described as tolerant of other religions.
After Mahmud of Ghazni demolished the temple of Somnath for the first time, it was rebuilt several times by the Hindus and destroyed by the Muslim conquerors as many times ! Once when a powerful Hindu king established his power in that region., he never disallowed Arab traders from entering the Hindu land even if he had a bitter experience of these traders in past. Because he want to establish his image as generous and religious tolerant Hindu King and he treated Arab with such a grate deal of hospitality and they might feel quite at home there. Naturally, these Arabic traders, actuated whether by political trickery or by religious pride, thought of building by way of a challenge, as it were , a Musjid just in front of the Somnath temple, rebuilt by the Hindu Kafirs. But the under the circumstances then prevalent there, they could not do so by force or bravado. Hence with their usual craft they applied in the most courteous and humble words to the King for permission to build the Masjid. And O what wonder ! that gullible Hindu King consented to it most willingly and up rose the new Masjid challenging the Somnath temple. As a matter of fact, considering the highly miserable state to which the Temple of Smonath was reduced by Mahmud and others the Hindu King should have wiped out of existence all the Masjids without exception, as soon as he conquered the land, and then and then alone could he have restored the Somnath temple to its original glory. But instead of destroying the existing Masjids he permitted a new one to be built up and bestowed an annuity on it for its maintenance. For this suicidal religious tolerance (perversion of a virtue again ! he had very soon to pay dearly, because when after some time the brutal forces of Alla-ud-din and attacked Gujrath and killed thousands of Hindu men and rape as many Hindu women and pulled down hundred of Hindu temples and marched straight towards Somnath, how did these Arabs and their descendants repay the religious tolerance of the Hindu King who allowed the Arabian traders to built the said Masjid ? Did they allow the restored Somnath temple to remain unmolested in return for the obligation of the Hindus - even if it were to tantalize the Hindu gullibility and simplicity ? No ! The Muslim armies battered the temple to pieces once again and outdid Mahmud of Ghazni in taking away the sacred idol and the slab inside this temple to Delhi and made them fit nicely into the pedestal for a Masjid there.
AHIMSA
Abolsute Ahimsa is a crime. Relative Ahimsa is a virtue. If a snake is going to bite a man, we will have to kill that snake instantly. To save that man by killing snake is real Ahimsa.
THE GRAVE DANGER OF THE MUSLIM ABDUCTION AND POLLUTION OF MILLIONS OF HINDU WOMEN
Muslims had a faith that it was a religious duty of every Muslim to kidnap and force into their own religion, non-Muslim women. This incited their sensuality and lust for carnage and, while it enormously increased their number, it affected the Hindu population in an inverse proportion. To hesitate to acknowledge this d fact under guise of politeness is simply a puerile self-deception. Few people call these Muslim Acts as religious fanaticism and madness. But even if it were madness, there was a method in it ! And the method in this Muslim madness was so horrible that, with the mistaken Hindu neglect of this so-called religious fanaticism , the Hindu nation came to have a perpetual bleeding sore. For , as a matter of fact the religious fanaticism of the Muslims was not madness at all, it was an effective method of increasing the Muslim population with special regard to the unavoidable laws of nature. The same law of nature is instinctively obeyed by the animal world. If in the cattle herds the number of oxen grows in excess of the cows , the herds do not grow numerically in a rapid manner. But on the other hand, the number of animals in the herds, with the excess of cows over the oxen grows in mathematical progression. The same is true of man, for at the core man is essentially an animal. Even in the pre-historic times the so-called wild tribes of the forest dwellers knew this law quite well. That is why today also Muslims always have polygamy. This very natural law was adopted and obeyed openly by the aggressive but numerically poor African Muslim armies and their chiefs while attacking the major populations of North Africa. Same was repeated by Arabs, Afghans when they were victorious in Hindusthan because to carry away the women of others and to ravish them is itself the supreme religious duty of the Muslim. This was considered the noble act which increased their number . After Sindh the Arab did not attempt another invasion of India, yet the Arab bands did come here along with other Muslim armies and like these Arabas, all those newly converted people like the Persians (Turanians, Afghans, the Turks, Moghuls and others fell on India with all the ferocity at their command. Obviously they had not brought their million of women fold along with them. But all those from the Sultans to the common soldiers as a rule, began to settle down here with the kidnapped Hindu women, whom they either married or simply kept as their concubines. Let alone the vast numbers of Hindu women of high as well as low ranks who led the most ignoble of lives in the harems of the Emperors, Sultans or Navabs, but almost every Muslim kept at least three or four such forcibly polluted women. Thus the women in this aggressive Muslim community came to be more numerous than the men, and polygamy being an accepted practice sanctioned by their religion, these foreign Muslim communities began to grow rapidly year after year, from a few thousand to millions and more. An interesting point to note is that Sultan Ghiyasd-din Tughlak, Sultan Shikandar, Sultan Phiroz-Shah Tughlak and many other devilish Hindu-haters were borne of Hindu mothers".
THE HINDU CHIVALRY TOWARDS ENEMY WOMEN
The Muslim women never feared retribution or punishment at the hands of any Hindu for their heinous crime. They had a perverted idea of women chivalry. If in a battle the Muslims won, they were rewarded for such crafty and deceitful conversions of Hindu women, but even if the Hindus carried the field and a Hindu power was established in that particular place the Muslim men alone, if at all suffered the consequential indignities but the Muslim women - never " Only Muslim men, and not women, were taken prisoners. Muslim women were sure that even in the thick of battles and in the confusion wrought just after then neither the Victor Hindu Chiefs, nor any of their common soldiers, not even any civilian would ever touch their hair. For albeit enemies and atrocious, they were women ! Hence even when they were taken prisoner in battles the Muslim women, royal ladies as also the commonest slaves, - were invariably sent back safe and sound to their respective families ! Such incidents were common enough in those times. And this act was glorified by the Hindus as their chivalry towards the enemy women and the generosity of their religion ! For a sample, read the following incidents.
Even now we proudly refer to the noble acts of Chhatrapati Shivaji and Chimaji Appa, when they honourably sent back the daughter-in-law of the Muslim Governor of Kalyan and the wife of the Portuguese governor of Bassein respectively. But is it not strange that, when they did so, neither Shivaji nor Chimaji should ever remember the atrocities and the rapes and the molestation, perpetrated by Mahmud of Ghazni, Muhammad Ghori, Alla-ud-in Khilji and others, on thousands of Hindu ladies and girls like the princesses of Dahir, Kamaldevi, the wife of Karnaraj of Karnawati and her extremely beautiful daughter, Devaldev. Did not the plaintive screams and pitiful lamentations of the millions of molested Hindu women, which reverberated throughout the length and breadth of the country reach the ears of Shivaji Maharaj and Chimaji Appa ? The souls of those millions of aggrieved women might have perhaps said, "Do not forget O, your Majesty, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and O ! You excellency, Chimaji Appa, the unutterable atrocities and oppression and outrage committed on us by the Sultans and Muslim noblemen and thousands of others, big and small. Let those Sultans and their peers take a fright that in the event of a Hindu victory our molestation and detestable lot shall be avenged on the Muslim women. Once they are haunted with this dreadful apprehension, that the Muslim women, too, stand in the same predicament in case the Hindus win, the future Muslim conquerors will never dare to think of such molestation of Hindu women". But because of the then prevalent perverted religious ideas about chivalry to women, which ultimately proved highly detrimental to the Hindu community , neither Shivaji Maharaj nor Chimaji Appa could do such wrongs to the Muslim women. It was the suicidal Hindu idea of chivalry to women which saved the Muslim women (simply because they were women) from the heavy punishments of committing indescribable sins and crimes against the Hindu women. Their womenhood became their shield quite sufficient to protect them. Still worse was the ridiculous idea, which the Hindus of those times entertained, that it was a sin to convert a Muslim woman to Hinduism. They foolishly thought that to have any sort of relations with a Muslim women meant their own conversion to Islam. Naturally, even in the midst of a Hindu community and the Hindu State they were secure against any attempt by the Hindus at abducting them or their forcible conversion to Hinduism. Exceptions however were very rare. Under these circumstances, the Muslim feminine class was left serphically free from any chastisement or penalty for their share of the crimes against the Hindu women world. Suppose if from the earliest Muslim invasion the Hindus also whenever they were victors on the battlefields, had decided to pay the Muslim fair sex in the same coin or punished them in some other ways i.e. by conversion even with force, and then absorbed them in their fold, then ? Then with this horrible apprehension at their heart they would have desisted from their evil designs against any Hindu lady. If they had taken such a fright in the first two or three centuries, million and millions of luckless Hindu ladies would have been saved all their indignities, loss of their own religion, rapes, ravages and other unimaginable persecutions. Our women-world would not have suffered such a tremendous numerical loss, which means their future progeny would not have been lost permanently to Hinduism and the Muslim population could not have thrived so audaciously. Without any increase in their womenfold the Muslim populations would have dwindled into a negligible minority. But with the fantastic idea of chivalry to enemy women and a blind eye to time, place or person, the Hindus of that period, never tried to chastise the Muslim women folk for their wrongs to Hindu women, even when the former were many a time completely at their mercy. Well, did this misplaced chivalrous idea of the Hindus have any salutary effect on their Muslim foes ? Were the latter ever ashamed of their sin of molesting a Hindu women in view of this Hindu religious generosity and high mindedness ? Did the Muslims ever sincerely feel thankful to Hindus for the safe return of thousands of Muslim women to their own kith and kin ? Never ! On the contrary they again and again reciprocated Hindu chivalrous behaviour with the same old treachery and atrocity, and thus held it to ridicule and scorn. On the contrary the Muslims were puffed perhaps with the thought that if at all the Hindus were to show chivalry to anybody, it should have been to their own Hindu women ! It was they who had the first right to such a chivalrous treatment ! But if the Hindus could not rescue thousands of their own women who were being abducted, polluted, and forced into Islamic religion, in their very presence, through centuries, why should the Muslims not ridicule the Hindu chivalrous idea of civility to women, even enemy women ? On the contrary they perhaps thought that the Hindus dared not hink of violating or even insulting the Muslim women for fear of horrible reprisals. Thus they were more likely to misconstrue the Hindu idea of chivalry, than interpret it in the right sense, as to have been borne of cowardice than of strength and bravery.
THE HINDUS OF THE PRE-ISLAMIC ERA NEVER INTERPRETED CHIVALRY TO WOMEN IN THIS ANTI-NATIONAL SILLY WAY
When Shoorpanakha, another she-demon, rushed to eat away Seeta like cucumber, Laxman deprived her of nose and ears and sent her back - not honourably with generous gifts of ornaments to show off his chivalry to women ! When Narakasur carried away thousands of Aryan women to his Asur Kingdom Shrikrishna marched upon demon and killed him in the war. But he did not stopped with military and political defeat he inflicted on Narkasur he rescued all the thousand of imprisoned Aryan female, undergoing all sorts of humiliations there, and brought them back to his own kingdom and thus took a social revenge ! Shree Krishna's army did not forsake their kinsowmen, simply because they were forcibly polluted and violated - a dastardly thought which he never entertained for a minute. On the contrary Shrikrishna as the Bhoopati brought all the sixteen thousand or more women to his kingdom, rehabilitated them honorably and took upon himself, the responsibility of feeding and protecting them. This very act of Krishna, as the Bhoopati , has been fantastically construed by the writers of the Puranas as to describe him the husband of those thousands of women. He was later thought to have married all of them.
In the post puranik period also the Hindus , right from the Samants to common citizens married unhesitatingly , Yavan, Saka or Hun women. The nation was valiant enough to absorb not only the progeny of those enemy women but the whole enemy communities in their own and leave no trace of their origin behind !. Is it necessary to add that these 'cow-faced' followers of Hinduism, proud of their utmost tolerance of other religions were not (in the least) likely to hit back the tiger-faced Muslims on religious grounds ?
Religious tolerance ! Virtue ! Yes, It can be a virtue only where the other religion is tolerant of our own ! But to tolerate the Muslim religion, the followers of which right from the Sultans like Mahmud of Ghazni and Ghori and others to the various Shahs and Badshahs thought it their religious obligation to massacre the Kafir Hindus to celebrate their accession to the throne and had been carrying on horrible religious persecution of the Hindus for nearly a thousand years, was tantamount to cut the throat of one's own religion ! It was not tolerance towards other religions, it was tolerance of irreligion ! It was not even tolerance, it was impotence ! But this truth never dawned upon the Hindu society of those days even after the horrible experience of a thousand years or so. They on their own part went on tolerating even such a heinous religion as the Islam and considered it a glorious virtue of their own - a special ornament in the crown of the Hindu community !
O thou Hindu society ! Of all the sins and weaknesses, which have brought about thy fall, the greatest and most potent are thy virtues themselves.
Remember every virtuous act done without the least regard to the propriety of the persons concerned - without the least thought whether the other person deserves such noble treatment or not - becomes a glaring vice most harmful to the true religion.

a) The caste system & ostracism:
Basic intention behind caste system was division of labour. But later on it proved as poison to Hindu Society. Due to Saptabandis (SEVEN BANS) like Ban on water ( not to drink water from other castes), ban on intercaste marriages, ban on crossing Attock & Sea sailing. Ban on re-conversion of Muslims and Christians, Hindu world suffered a tremendous loss. Due to these differences based on castes, we the Hindus never became united against common foe. e.g. Molestation of Brahmin woman by Muslim did not generate sense of revenge amongst other cast and vice versa. Muslims and Christians naturally took full advantage of our such internal differences and enhanced their numerical power.
b) Ban on re-purification of forcibly converted Muslim and Christians:
During the 1000 years of Hindu-Muslim War we the Hindus got success in Military War but we failed miserably in religious war. We were successful in Military wars against Muslims but we failed to nullify the religious aggression done by Muslims and Christians on our society. What might be the reason behind this religious defeat ?
Whenever Muslim Army was victorious in war, they used to compel Hindu Men to accept either Islam or Death. They used to capture Hindu ladies and distribute amongst themselves by converting them to Islam through rapes.
After few years Hindu Army used to recapture that province but this victorious Hindu Army never forced any pure Muslim to accept Hindutva. Nay, they even didn't allow the forcibly converted Hindus to come back to their own Hindu religion. They didn't free the Hindu beauty from Muslim harems. Because they want to save their purity by banning on reconversion of polluted Hindu men and women. According to Hindus, such ban was the order of Hindu religion, so they strictly adhered to it. But this ban caused heavy numerical loss to Hindu society, Not only this but this ban caused heavy numerical profit to Muslim society. Hindu women in Muslim harems continued to give births to new Aurangzebs. These Aurangzebs further continued wars and molestation. This continued onwards unchecked and caused numerical imbalance between Hindus and Muslims. This is the very reason why we the Hindus were defeated in religious field although we were victorious in the battlefield.
c) Perverted conception of virtues:
In fact virtues or vices are only relative terms. No virtue can be unqualified and absolute under every circumstance or at every place. Be it said briefly that in practice or in ethical code a virtue should be called a virtue only to the extent to which it is useful to the best interest of human society. And the moment it begins to cause harm to mankind , it should be considered a vice and as such discarded forthwith.
To let go the vanquished and abjectly surrendering enemy is said to be a virtue in some religious books, so enemies like the ungrateful Mohammed Ghori & Rohial Najibkhan, were set free. And what did they do in return for this noble act of the Hindus ? The first brutally murdered his former benefactor, Prithviraj Chauhan, while the second conspired against the very Marathas, who let him go alive and brought about their unprecedented destruction at Panipat. Having only learnt by rote the maxim, to give food to the hungry and water to the thirsty is a virtue, the Hindus went on giving milk to the vile poisonous cobras and vipers ! Even while the Muslim demons were demolishing Hindu temples and breaking to pieces their holiest of idols like Somnath, they never wrecked their vengeance upon those wicked Muslims, even when they had golden opportunities to do so, nor did they ever take out a single brick from the walls of Masjids because their religious teachers and priests preached the virtue of not inflicting pain on the offender.
Every Hindu seems to have been made to suck along with his mother's milk, this Nectar - like advice that religious tolerance is a virtue. But nobody ever explains to him the essence of that precept. If that alien religion is also tolerant of our own religion, our tolerance towards it can be a virtue. But the Muslims and the Christians religions, which boldly proclaim it to be their religious duty to destroy most cruelly the Hindu religion and to eradicate from the face of this earth the Kafirs and the heathens, can never to described as tolerant of other religions.
After Mahmud of Ghazni demolished the temple of Somnath for the first time, it was rebuilt several times by the Hindus and destroyed by the Muslim conquerors as many times ! Once when a powerful Hindu king established his power in that region., he never disallowed Arab traders from entering the Hindu land even if he had a bitter experience of these traders in past. Because he want to establish his image as generous and religious tolerant Hindu King and he treated Arab with such a grate deal of hospitality and they might feel quite at home there. Naturally, these Arabic traders, actuated whether by political trickery or by religious pride, thought of building by way of a challenge, as it were , a Musjid just in front of the Somnath temple, rebuilt by the Hindu Kafirs. But the under the circumstances then prevalent there, they could not do so by force or bravado. Hence with their usual craft they applied in the most courteous and humble words to the King for permission to build the Masjid. And O what wonder ! that gullible Hindu King consented to it most willingly and up rose the new Masjid challenging the Somnath temple. As a matter of fact, considering the highly miserable state to which the Temple of Smonath was reduced by Mahmud and others the Hindu King should have wiped out of existence all the Masjids without exception, as soon as he conquered the land, and then and then alone could he have restored the Somnath temple to its original glory. But instead of destroying the existing Masjids he permitted a new one to be built up and bestowed an annuity on it for its maintenance. For this suicidal religious tolerance (perversion of a virtue again ! he had very soon to pay dearly, because when after some time the brutal forces of Alla-ud-din and attacked Gujrath and killed thousands of Hindu men and rape as many Hindu women and pulled down hundred of Hindu temples and marched straight towards Somnath, how did these Arabs and their descendants repay the religious tolerance of the Hindu King who allowed the Arabian traders to built the said Masjid ? Did they allow the restored Somnath temple to remain unmolested in return for the obligation of the Hindus - even if it were to tantalize the Hindu gullibility and simplicity ? No ! The Muslim armies battered the temple to pieces once again and outdid Mahmud of Ghazni in taking away the sacred idol and the slab inside this temple to Delhi and made them fit nicely into the pedestal for a Masjid there.
AHIMSA
Abolsute Ahimsa is a crime. Relative Ahimsa is a virtue. If a snake is going to bite a man, we will have to kill that snake instantly. To save that man by killing snake is real Ahimsa.
THE GRAVE DANGER OF THE MUSLIM ABDUCTION AND POLLUTION OF MILLIONS OF HINDU WOMEN
Muslims had a faith that it was a religious duty of every Muslim to kidnap and force into their own religion, non-Muslim women. This incited their sensuality and lust for carnage and, while it enormously increased their number, it affected the Hindu population in an inverse proportion. To hesitate to acknowledge this d fact under guise of politeness is simply a puerile self-deception. Few people call these Muslim Acts as religious fanaticism and madness. But even if it were madness, there was a method in it ! And the method in this Muslim madness was so horrible that, with the mistaken Hindu neglect of this so-called religious fanaticism , the Hindu nation came to have a perpetual bleeding sore. For , as a matter of fact the religious fanaticism of the Muslims was not madness at all, it was an effective method of increasing the Muslim population with special regard to the unavoidable laws of nature. The same law of nature is instinctively obeyed by the animal world. If in the cattle herds the number of oxen grows in excess of the cows , the herds do not grow numerically in a rapid manner. But on the other hand, the number of animals in the herds, with the excess of cows over the oxen grows in mathematical progression. The same is true of man, for at the core man is essentially an animal. Even in the pre-historic times the so-called wild tribes of the forest dwellers knew this law quite well. That is why today also Muslims always have polygamy. This very natural law was adopted and obeyed openly by the aggressive but numerically poor African Muslim armies and their chiefs while attacking the major populations of North Africa. Same was repeated by Arabs, Afghans when they were victorious in Hindusthan because to carry away the women of others and to ravish them is itself the supreme religious duty of the Muslim. This was considered the noble act which increased their number . After Sindh the Arab did not attempt another invasion of India, yet the Arab bands did come here along with other Muslim armies and like these Arabas, all those newly converted people like the Persians (Turanians, Afghans, the Turks, Moghuls and others fell on India with all the ferocity at their command. Obviously they had not brought their million of women fold along with them. But all those from the Sultans to the common soldiers as a rule, began to settle down here with the kidnapped Hindu women, whom they either married or simply kept as their concubines. Let alone the vast numbers of Hindu women of high as well as low ranks who led the most ignoble of lives in the harems of the Emperors, Sultans or Navabs, but almost every Muslim kept at least three or four such forcibly polluted women. Thus the women in this aggressive Muslim community came to be more numerous than the men, and polygamy being an accepted practice sanctioned by their religion, these foreign Muslim communities began to grow rapidly year after year, from a few thousand to millions and more. An interesting point to note is that Sultan Ghiyasd-din Tughlak, Sultan Shikandar, Sultan Phiroz-Shah Tughlak and many other devilish Hindu-haters were borne of Hindu mothers".
THE HINDU CHIVALRY TOWARDS ENEMY WOMEN
The Muslim women never feared retribution or punishment at the hands of any Hindu for their heinous crime. They had a perverted idea of women chivalry. If in a battle the Muslims won, they were rewarded for such crafty and deceitful conversions of Hindu women, but even if the Hindus carried the field and a Hindu power was established in that particular place the Muslim men alone, if at all suffered the consequential indignities but the Muslim women - never " Only Muslim men, and not women, were taken prisoners. Muslim women were sure that even in the thick of battles and in the confusion wrought just after then neither the Victor Hindu Chiefs, nor any of their common soldiers, not even any civilian would ever touch their hair. For albeit enemies and atrocious, they were women ! Hence even when they were taken prisoner in battles the Muslim women, royal ladies as also the commonest slaves, - were invariably sent back safe and sound to their respective families ! Such incidents were common enough in those times. And this act was glorified by the Hindus as their chivalry towards the enemy women and the generosity of their religion ! For a sample, read the following incidents.
Even now we proudly refer to the noble acts of Chhatrapati Shivaji and Chimaji Appa, when they honourably sent back the daughter-in-law of the Muslim Governor of Kalyan and the wife of the Portuguese governor of Bassein respectively. But is it not strange that, when they did so, neither Shivaji nor Chimaji should ever remember the atrocities and the rapes and the molestation, perpetrated by Mahmud of Ghazni, Muhammad Ghori, Alla-ud-in Khilji and others, on thousands of Hindu ladies and girls like the princesses of Dahir, Kamaldevi, the wife of Karnaraj of Karnawati and her extremely beautiful daughter, Devaldev. Did not the plaintive screams and pitiful lamentations of the millions of molested Hindu women, which reverberated throughout the length and breadth of the country reach the ears of Shivaji Maharaj and Chimaji Appa ? The souls of those millions of aggrieved women might have perhaps said, "Do not forget O, your Majesty, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and O ! You excellency, Chimaji Appa, the unutterable atrocities and oppression and outrage committed on us by the Sultans and Muslim noblemen and thousands of others, big and small. Let those Sultans and their peers take a fright that in the event of a Hindu victory our molestation and detestable lot shall be avenged on the Muslim women. Once they are haunted with this dreadful apprehension, that the Muslim women, too, stand in the same predicament in case the Hindus win, the future Muslim conquerors will never dare to think of such molestation of Hindu women". But because of the then prevalent perverted religious ideas about chivalry to women, which ultimately proved highly detrimental to the Hindu community , neither Shivaji Maharaj nor Chimaji Appa could do such wrongs to the Muslim women. It was the suicidal Hindu idea of chivalry to women which saved the Muslim women (simply because they were women) from the heavy punishments of committing indescribable sins and crimes against the Hindu women. Their womenhood became their shield quite sufficient to protect them. Still worse was the ridiculous idea, which the Hindus of those times entertained, that it was a sin to convert a Muslim woman to Hinduism. They foolishly thought that to have any sort of relations with a Muslim women meant their own conversion to Islam. Naturally, even in the midst of a Hindu community and the Hindu State they were secure against any attempt by the Hindus at abducting them or their forcible conversion to Hinduism. Exceptions however were very rare. Under these circumstances, the Muslim feminine class was left serphically free from any chastisement or penalty for their share of the crimes against the Hindu women world. Suppose if from the earliest Muslim invasion the Hindus also whenever they were victors on the battlefields, had decided to pay the Muslim fair sex in the same coin or punished them in some other ways i.e. by conversion even with force, and then absorbed them in their fold, then ? Then with this horrible apprehension at their heart they would have desisted from their evil designs against any Hindu lady. If they had taken such a fright in the first two or three centuries, million and millions of luckless Hindu ladies would have been saved all their indignities, loss of their own religion, rapes, ravages and other unimaginable persecutions. Our women-world would not have suffered such a tremendous numerical loss, which means their future progeny would not have been lost permanently to Hinduism and the Muslim population could not have thrived so audaciously. Without any increase in their womenfold the Muslim populations would have dwindled into a negligible minority. But with the fantastic idea of chivalry to enemy women and a blind eye to time, place or person, the Hindus of that period, never tried to chastise the Muslim women folk for their wrongs to Hindu women, even when the former were many a time completely at their mercy. Well, did this misplaced chivalrous idea of the Hindus have any salutary effect on their Muslim foes ? Were the latter ever ashamed of their sin of molesting a Hindu women in view of this Hindu religious generosity and high mindedness ? Did the Muslims ever sincerely feel thankful to Hindus for the safe return of thousands of Muslim women to their own kith and kin ? Never ! On the contrary they again and again reciprocated Hindu chivalrous behaviour with the same old treachery and atrocity, and thus held it to ridicule and scorn. On the contrary the Muslims were puffed perhaps with the thought that if at all the Hindus were to show chivalry to anybody, it should have been to their own Hindu women ! It was they who had the first right to such a chivalrous treatment ! But if the Hindus could not rescue thousands of their own women who were being abducted, polluted, and forced into Islamic religion, in their very presence, through centuries, why should the Muslims not ridicule the Hindu chivalrous idea of civility to women, even enemy women ? On the contrary they perhaps thought that the Hindus dared not hink of violating or even insulting the Muslim women for fear of horrible reprisals. Thus they were more likely to misconstrue the Hindu idea of chivalry, than interpret it in the right sense, as to have been borne of cowardice than of strength and bravery.
THE HINDUS OF THE PRE-ISLAMIC ERA NEVER INTERPRETED CHIVALRY TO WOMEN IN THIS ANTI-NATIONAL SILLY WAY
When Shoorpanakha, another she-demon, rushed to eat away Seeta like cucumber, Laxman deprived her of nose and ears and sent her back - not honourably with generous gifts of ornaments to show off his chivalry to women ! When Narakasur carried away thousands of Aryan women to his Asur Kingdom Shrikrishna marched upon demon and killed him in the war. But he did not stopped with military and political defeat he inflicted on Narkasur he rescued all the thousand of imprisoned Aryan female, undergoing all sorts of humiliations there, and brought them back to his own kingdom and thus took a social revenge ! Shree Krishna's army did not forsake their kinsowmen, simply because they were forcibly polluted and violated - a dastardly thought which he never entertained for a minute. On the contrary Shrikrishna as the Bhoopati brought all the sixteen thousand or more women to his kingdom, rehabilitated them honorably and took upon himself, the responsibility of feeding and protecting them. This very act of Krishna, as the Bhoopati , has been fantastically construed by the writers of the Puranas as to describe him the husband of those thousands of women. He was later thought to have married all of them.

Is it necessary to add that these 'cow-faced' followers of Hinduism, proud of their utmost tolerance of other religions were not (in the least) likely to hit back the tiger-faced Muslims on religious grounds ?

Take over of Temples- US Hindus to file Petition against GOI
Take over of Temples- US Hindus to file Petition against GOI in Supreme Court
20/12/2007 14:19:12 HCINA Press Release (news courtsey http://www.haindavakeralam.com
ORLANDO, FLORIDA, December 18, 2007: A meeting of Hindu religious leaders, intellectual leaders, academics and activists has decided to file a petition against the Indian Government in the Supreme Court of India against the taking over of the management of temples in India by the government. A unanimous resolution to this effect was passed at the end of the three days of the Second biennial Hindu Dharma Summit, convened by the Hindu Collective Initiative of North America (HCINA). The HCINA is a collaborative body of 80 large Hindu organizations and temples across the US, formed in August 2005. Its mission statement is "To serve as a collective body of Hindu organizations including temples in North America; to facilitate networking and collaboration to address issues of common concern and benefits; and to co-ordinate collective initiatives to promote the understanding, practice and propagation of Hindu Dharma and culture through proper education and public policy."
The HCINA general secretary, Ved Prakash Chaudhary, said a meeting would be held in New Delhi next year, when a petition would be filed against the government's decision to take over the management of Hindu temples. "Why they are taking control of only Hindu temples and siphoning off the money to the treasury? Why they do not take over the management of a gurudwara, a mosque or a church? Most of us felt that this is the situation that we have to take up seriously," Chaudhary said. Various alternative models were discussed during the meeting including the option of a Hindu Develaya Prabandhak Committee that would manage the temples.
Leading Hindus came from all over the globe to participate. The conference was planned and hosted by Hindu University of America.
The Summit leaders agreed that the Government of India should be paying more attention to the human rights issues in Kashmir, Bangladesh, Kazakhstan - where thousands of Hindus are involved. "We would soon be approaching the Government of India in this regard," Chaudhary said.
The Dharma Summit - 2007 also decided to constitute a committee of Hindu academicians and teachers to prepare a supplementary text book material for schools in the United States. These supplemental books would be distributed to teachers and schools all over the US so that a true picture is presented to the students about Hinduism and Indian culture.
There were sessions on various other topics including one coordinated by youth relating to youth issues such as inter-faith marriages, effect on family, progeny and culture and accepting non-Hindus as Hindus.

Call for Hindu Unity by KHNA Chairman Sri Udayabhanu Panickar
CALL FOR HINDU UNITY BY KHNA CHAIRMAN
This is the full text of the speech by KHNA Chairman Udayabhanu Panickar at Pranav Nagar on July 1, 2007 during the inauguration ceremony of the fourth Kerala Hindu Convention.
AUM poornamadh Poornamidam
Poornath poornamudachyathe
Poornasya poornamaadaya
Poornamevvshisythe
Aum Shanthi, shanthi, Shanthi.
In the early seventies, we the first generation immigrants from the land of the enlightened, the land known for thousands and thousands of years as bhaaratvarSh, landed here in the USA with little finance, a strong mind, a power full heart and hard work as our investment. (Of course a lot of us got that heart in trouble by eating a lot of flesh.) But, we survived, we prospered, we, almost everyone become somebody.
As many other first generation immigrent community, we lagged behind in our spiritual efforts. In the course of the quest for survival and struggle to bring up a family, we did not have enough time to peruse in that direction. We were also not fully equipped for that kind of a challenge. Even the efforts we made lacked much of the power to establish a good base, as most of us were not experts or experienced in our Spiritual Science. Our limited knowledge were even tainted and influenced by the western religions and culture. A lot of our Spiritual Theorems got diluted and corrupted and a lot of us believed those corrupted ones to be true. Some of us believed that our Spirituality is not good enough. Even while we were back home, a good number of us got over exposed to the western culture and religion and under exposed to our Spirituality. Above all we had our petty and silly differences which prevented us from making a real effort in educating our children others and ourselves about the real values of our Culture and Spirituality.
A lot of people think that our Spirituality lags behind the religions of the world, or at least they are only on a par with those Semitic Religions. But that is not the fact. I refuse to even think that “The Science of The Absolute”, as Nataraja Guru named our Spirituality, lags behind any religion. Our Spiritual Science is full of resources to strengthen ourselves and empower us to prosper in every aspect of life anywhere in this world and beyond, most certainly even beyond heaven.
A lot of damage has been done to the reputation of our history and to the minds and self respect of our children through the school systems of this country in the name of “true history” by the so-called experts and intellectuals on our history, Culture and Spirituality. Most of those “so-called and self styled experts” and intellectuals were people like us, the immigrants; and those who came here in the disguise of education and stayed on to become self styled experts on our Spirituality & history, pluralists, secularists and some of them even evangelists. In fact they are all self-styled experts who has no knowledge of any of the Great works of our Spiritual Science, “The Science of The Absolute”, or our Culture or our “real history”.
Thanks to American Hindu Foundation for taking the first step in correcting the wrongs done to our Culture, History and Spirituality by the so-called experts through the California School textbooks.
In our younger years, we learned from the school history books that our country of origin became free in 1947. But it looks like our land of origin is still under the rule of western forces, Financially, Culturally, Spiritually and even politically. Look at the Multi-National companies flourishing there. Look at the Cultural and Spiritual enslavement through TV, Movies and other Media. Look at who owns those Media Houses. You will really be surprised. Look at the political structure of the country. Look at the "who is who" of the government that rules the country, which should be called bhaaratvarSh. Look at the two rupee and one rupee coin the Government brought out with an icon of a western religious symbol on them. The influence began thousands of year’s back and it is still in force. More influencing forces are added to it on a war footing. You can see proof of it in the activities of groups such as “Joshua 2000”, “Mandate 2000”, “Harvesting the crop of souls” and statements made by the leaders of such and other evangelizing institutions. Even some of the evangelists’ wants to operate their evangelization institutions right in side our temples.
They have hundreds of such institutions right by the side or very close to our Temples. Most of it are built either on the land gotten from the ruling elite of the time, be it the kings of the past or be the present day politicians of the left and the right political alliances, or on the land grabbed by them under the pretax of secularism, minority benefits or religious freedom.
The money and matter we donate to our Institutions of Spirituality is for the service to the poor. But, look what is happening! Major part of it are stolen by politicians or diverted to people who don’t believe in our Spirituality, and even to the people who tarnish our Spirituality day in and day out trying to propagate their believes and ways to our people.
We were made to believe that our ancestry was and is divided. That believes actually divided us into religions, chaathur varnyam, castes and sub-castes. We discriminated against our own people thinking that some of us are inferior and some of us are superior. This division made us hate and distrust each other. The wounds of that division are still with us even in this land. We can still hear the echoes of the demeaning and insulting remarks even here in the USA made by our own people against our own people. WE MUST, I emphasize very much WE MUST over come this. And we have to see that more divisions are not created.
Luckily we have a good number of spiritual personalities who re-educated us on our Spiritual Science, “The Science of The Absolute”. I like to mention the names of two such Great people whom I consider to be the representation of the parabrahmmam in this universe. They devised ways and means to create the unity and friendship we need. They did it with there own life. But, it is a shame that we even argue and create friction and division within our community in their name. Those two great people were Shree Narayana Gurudevan and Shree Chattampi Swamikal. There are many more. But I only bring out these two names as I can relate to them more than others in that list. I grow up with some of the people who knew both of those Great Rishi personally. And they told me how great friends and comrades those two were and what a great brotherly relation they had.
Let us follow the ways those two shown us. Let us learn the Spiritual Germs they left for us. Let us not fight in their name. I can tell you with confidence that if we can learn the essence of at least daivadeShakam, the simplest of Shree Narayana Gurudevan's Spiritual Germ, our unity will be very easy to be achieved.
We need Unity and we need it soon. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of separation and segregation to the sunlit path of unity for us. Now is the time to lift our community from the sinking ship of disunity to the forefront of the spiritual awakening based on equality among all of us?
Now is the time for us to make a real effort for unity. Now is the time to forget the petty differences of caste and regionalism. Now is the time for us to come out of the clutches of the dividing forces and join together. It is the time for laying down a strong foundation for a real unity of our community for the future of our children and our samskrithi in this land of Freedom, Liberty and Opertunity.
This is also very much applicable to our land of origin. It is the time for all our people there in Keralam also to unite.
But there is something that I must say to you all, in the process of gaining our unity and rightful place we must not be guilty of wrong deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for unity by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred for people who are opposed to us. We must forever conduct our struggle for unity on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative endeavor for unity to degenerate into any kind of injustice to others. Or we must not indulge in any kind of violence physical or physiological. But at the same time, we must oppose every effort to degrade and tarnish our Culture, our Spirituality and our GOAL OF UNITY. We must oppose every such effort with all our might and defeat them, here and back in the land of our origin. Never hesitate a bit.
As the events pass by at this Pranav Nagar, the venue of the Convention, for the next three days, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead towards the goal of ours, a united, friendly and service oriented community. That community must be willing to help the ones in need, but also ready to question the wrong doings of anyone, within or without. We cannot turn back. Let us make a promise to ourselves that we shall not turn back and we will unite.
My dear friends, I have a Vision, rather a dream, a dream where all our people, will treat each other and others with love, respect and equality. I have a dream that all others will treat us also with love, respect and equality. I have a dream that soon we will be able to learn and let others learn our Spirituality, “The Science of The Absolute”, and understand its’ true meaning with the help of correct interpretation. I have a dream that soon we will be able to let the world know the true value of our Culture and Spirituality. I have a dream that the helping hand we extended to the fifty poor students back in Keralam for their higher education will continue and grow into a good source of education for the poor of our community there. This is my Vision for KHNA and I hope you all have even better vision than mine. With my limited ability and tiny capacity, I tried to make a little move in this direction. I hope the future leaders of KHNA shall make much more and real progress and move on to higher levels of achievements.
I urge you all, who are here and all those who are not here to join together and learn our Spirituality, “The Science of The Absolute”, the Brhmavidya Shatram, and create the Unity we need and do the service our poor brothers and sisters back home needs.
Thank you all.

This is the full text of the speech by KHNA Chairman Udayabhanu Panickar at Pranav Nagar on July 1, 2007 during the inauguration ceremony of the fourth Kerala Hindu Convention.
AUM poornamadh Poornamidam
Poornath poornamudachyathe
Poornasya poornamaadaya
Poornamevvshisythe
Aum Shanthi, shanthi, Shanthi.
In the early seventies, we the first generation immigrants from the land of the enlightened, the land known for thousands and thousands of years as bhaaratvarSh, landed here in the USA with little finance, a strong mind, a power full heart and hard work as our investment. (Of course a lot of us got that heart in trouble by eating a lot of flesh.) But, we survived, we prospered, we, almost everyone become somebody.
As many other first generation immigrent community, we lagged behind in our spiritual efforts. In the course of the quest for survival and struggle to bring up a family, we did not have enough time to peruse in that direction. We were also not fully equipped for that kind of a challenge. Even the efforts we made lacked much of the power to establish a good base, as most of us were not experts or experienced in our Spiritual Science. Our limited knowledge were even tainted and influenced by the western religions and culture. A lot of our Spiritual Theorems got diluted and corrupted and a lot of us believed those corrupted ones to be true. Some of us believed that our Spirituality is not good enough. Even while we were back home, a good number of us got over exposed to the western culture and religion and under exposed to our Spirituality. Above all we had our petty and silly differences which prevented us from making a real effort in educating our children others and ourselves about the real values of our Culture and Spirituality.
A lot of people think that our Spirituality lags behind the religions of the world, or at least they are only on a par with those Semitic Religions. But that is not the fact. I refuse to even think that “The Science of The Absolute”, as Nataraja Guru named our Spirituality, lags behind any religion. Our Spiritual Science is full of resources to strengthen ourselves and empower us to prosper in every aspect of life anywhere in this world and beyond, most certainly even beyond heaven.
A lot of damage has been done to the reputation of our history and to the minds and self respect of our children through the school systems of this country in the name of “true history” by the so-called experts and intellectuals on our history, Culture and Spirituality. Most of those “so-called and self styled experts” and intellectuals were people like us, the immigrants; and those who came here in the disguise of education and stayed on to become self styled experts on our Spirituality & history, pluralists, secularists and some of them even evangelists. In fact they are all self-styled experts who has no knowledge of any of the Great works of our Spiritual Science, “The Science of The Absolute”, or our Culture or our “real history”.
Thanks to American Hindu Foundation for taking the first step in correcting the wrongs done to our Culture, History and Spirituality by the so-called experts through the California School textbooks.
In our younger years, we learned from the school history books that our country of origin became free in 1947. But it looks like our land of origin is still under the rule of western forces, Financially, Culturally, Spiritually and even politically. Look at the Multi-National companies flourishing there. Look at the Cultural and Spiritual enslavement through TV, Movies and other Media. Look at who owns those Media Houses. You will really be surprised. Look at the political structure of the country. Look at the "who is who" of the government that rules the country, which should be called bhaaratvarSh. Look at the two rupee and one rupee coin the Government brought out with an icon of a western religious symbol on them. The influence began thousands of year’s back and it is still in force. More influencing forces are added to it on a war footing. You can see proof of it in the activities of groups such as “Joshua 2000”, “Mandate 2000”, “Harvesting the crop of souls” and statements made by the leaders of such and other evangelizing institutions. Even some of the evangelists’ wants to operate their evangelization institutions right in side our temples.
They have hundreds of such institutions right by the side or very close to our Temples. Most of it are built either on the land gotten from the ruling elite of the time, be it the kings of the past or be the present day politicians of the left and the right political alliances, or on the land grabbed by them under the pretax of secularism, minority benefits or religious freedom.
The money and matter we donate to our Institutions of Spirituality is for the service to the poor. But, look what is happening! Major part of it are stolen by politicians or diverted to people who don’t believe in our Spirituality, and even to the people who tarnish our Spirituality day in and day out trying to propagate their believes and ways to our people.
We were made to believe that our ancestry was and is divided. That believes actually divided us into religions, chaathur varnyam, castes and sub-castes. We discriminated against our own people thinking that some of us are inferior and some of us are superior. This division made us hate and distrust each other. The wounds of that division are still with us even in this land. We can still hear the echoes of the demeaning and insulting remarks even here in the USA made by our own people against our own people. WE MUST, I emphasize very much WE MUST over come this. And we have to see that more divisions are not created.
Luckily we have a good number of spiritual personalities who re-educated us on our Spiritual Science, “The Science of The Absolute”. I like to mention the names of two such Great people whom I consider to be the representation of the parabrahmmam in this universe. They devised ways and means to create the unity and friendship we need. They did it with there own life. But, it is a shame that we even argue and create friction and division within our community in their name. Those two great people were Shree Narayana Gurudevan and Shree Chattampi Swamikal. There are many more. But I only bring out these two names as I can relate to them more than others in that list. I grow up with some of the people who knew both of those Great Rishi personally. And they told me how great friends and comrades those two were and what a great brotherly relation they had.
Let us follow the ways those two shown us. Let us learn the Spiritual Germs they left for us. Let us not fight in their name. I can tell you with confidence that if we can learn the essence of at least daivadeShakam, the simplest of Shree Narayana Gurudevan's Spiritual Germ, our unity will be very easy to be achieved.
We need Unity and we need it soon. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of separation and segregation to the sunlit path of unity for us. Now is the time to lift our community from the sinking ship of disunity to the forefront of the spiritual awakening based on equality among all of us?
Now is the time for us to make a real effort for unity. Now is the time to forget the petty differences of caste and regionalism. Now is the time for us to come out of the clutches of the dividing forces and join together. It is the time for laying down a strong foundation for a real unity of our community for the future of our children and our samskrithi in this land of Freedom, Liberty and Opertunity.
This is also very much applicable to our land of origin. It is the time for all our people there in Keralam also to unite.
But there is something that I must say to you all, in the process of gaining our unity and rightful place we must not be guilty of wrong deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for unity by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred for people who are opposed to us. We must forever conduct our struggle for unity on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative endeavor for unity to degenerate into any kind of injustice to others. Or we must not indulge in any kind of violence physical or physiological. But at the same time, we must oppose every effort to degrade and tarnish our Culture, our Spirituality and our GOAL OF UNITY. We must oppose every such effort with all our might and defeat them, here and back in the land of our origin. Never hesitate a bit.
As the events pass by at this Pranav Nagar, the venue of the Convention, for the next three days, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead towards the goal of ours, a united, friendly and service oriented community. That community must be willing to help the ones in need, but also ready to question the wrong doings of anyone, within or without. We cannot turn back. Let us make a promise to ourselves that we shall not turn back and we will unite.
My dear friends, I have a Vision, rather a dream, a dream where all our people, will treat each other and others with love, respect and equality. I have a dream that all others will treat us also with love, respect and equality. I have a dream that soon we will be able to learn and let others learn our Spirituality, “The Science of The Absolute”, and understand its’ true meaning with the help of correct interpretation. I have a dream that soon we will be able to let the world know the true value of our Culture and Spirituality. I have a dream that the helping hand we extended to the fifty poor students back in Keralam for their higher education will continue and grow into a good source of education for the poor of our community there. This is my Vision for KHNA and I hope you all have even better vision than mine. With my limited ability and tiny capacity, I tried to make a little move in this direction. I hope the future leaders of KHNA shall make much more and real progress and move on to higher levels of achievements.
I urge you all, who are here and all those who are not here to join together and learn our Spirituality, “The Science of The Absolute”, the Brhmavidya Shatram, and create the Unity we need and do the service our poor brothers and sisters back home needs.
Thank you all.
