Bakthi through Dakshina




Note:
The content I admited in this post is truly what I experienced and does not mean to hurt any religious beliefs.


You may have seen people around who always lay their hands front, asking money to complete the jobs done for you. It may be at the govt offices or even at any organizations. The corruption broadened to a peak level everywhere. Finally it even reached temples. ...... Can you believe that? The place where we confess our sins, worship The Lord, feel immense happy has become impure.

Recently I visited one of the famous temple in south called Draksharamam and Kotipalli (50 kms from kakinada). You know what! The Purohits over there chant mantras only if you pay some bucks as Dakshina. The importance of the 800AD temple was only explained when I gave them a 10 rupee note. Its not the money which maters, Its the humanity I was thinking. How can such vedic recitor become money-minded. That really hurts right? Not every religious place are of this kind. They are places like The Balaji temple in Chilkoor, where there is no hundi at all. May be that's the devastating point to leave our culture behind with disrespect.

Coming to your post...yeah its not in the recent past that the dakshinas thing in temples come into play ...its normally a kind of thing existing from long time ....i know its disgusting and dissapointing to exp something like that n also makes u feel baah what shall i do goin to a temple too where everything is commercial...BUT you cant deny the fact that almost all temples are just changing to being that these days....n nuthn can be done by us too.....so now that u have written it....atleast its better we dont give extra dakshinas for our so called works to get done there n rather just go to a temple to revere god for moments n derive happiness from that n come away!!!!!

keep writing more....bye!
