It’s said that a picture is worth a thousand words (i really don’t know how much these sad pictures are worth, whether they are worth anything at all!) , and a video much much more. I don’t have words to explain the agony as i watch this everyday, when i took the initiative to clean the mess myself, i was forbidden by the people around to do so. Neither are they doing it, nor are they allowing anyone else to do it! This is the state of affairs for more than one month!
The roads around are much much cleaner than this place (LOL). All educated by “modern education” visit this place regularly! – just like the “wisest fool” – Mohammad Bin Tughlaq that we read in modern history!
It makes me wonder whether the Gods inside the temple are really different from the same Gods outside, i mean i see the same framed photographs inside the temple and also outside the temple in this filth!!! – whether the concepts of KANISHTHA-ADHIKARI, MADHYAMA-ADHIKARI and UTTAMA-ADHIKARI has got anything to do here! All i could only see is WRONG-ADHIKARI or ADHIGAARI ( அதிகாரி ) or authority here 😦

May be there is an NGO which can sort this kind of stuff? At least Ramakrishna Mission or Isha …some one?? Try that route. An organization is always powerful than individual when a change is needed.

Based in Srirangam and aged 80+ still traveling all around South India visiting knowledge centre like melukote. He is having around 15 scribes to note down his dictation…

Unfortunately it’s a very sad state of affairs. What comes to my mind at this point is ” Vinaasha Kaale Vipareeta Buddhih”. I don’t know how many centuries we need to wait before a common sense and respect towards fellow human becomes a part of everyone’s conscience.
