Vijayapura, Jan 18: Sri Vishwaprasanna Theertha Swamiji, seer of Pejawar Math said that instead of donating to temples, needy should be served.
Speaking to reporters, Swamiji said, “Many reports are published about the misuse of donations given to temples. So the best way to prevent this is by stopping donations to the temples and using the money for the welfare of the people directly. If the public has the capacity to construct even a small house for the poor, it should be done.”
Responding to the question of what achievement is done by building Ram Mandir at Ayodhya by critics, Swamiji said, “I will tell the administrative committee of Ram Mandir to start a campaign for the needy before the next Ram Navami.
“Society should be cleansed every now and then. Maths and political parties should not indulge in discrimination. If we are right, everything will be fine. Devotion towards God and nation are the same. Let us serve in the name of Lord Sri Ram. Let us start, Ram’s service is a service to nation' campaign by the next Ram Navami. I will write a letter to PM Modi in this regard," he said.
“Once upon a time, building Ram Mandir was a dream. Now in addition to Ram Mandir, the dream of Ram Rajya should be realized. Study about Ramayana needs to be undertaken.
Backward community should be helped in any form. The application for uploading the welfare schemes of the government should be developed. This mammoth campaign will silence the critics of Ram Mandir," the seer opined.
“People should take up pro-society works in the name of Lord Ram. If commoners can work for the society, why not the rich and affluent politicians?,” Swamiji questioned.
