SRIAMATHE BHOOMIDEVI SAMETHA SRIMATH UPPILIAPPN 
THIRUVADIGALE SARANAM
Dear Bhakthas, 
What Srimathi Suchitra Chelladurai has mentioned is a
Nithyaradhanai Kattalai Scheme which is prevalent in
quite a few temples in and around Kumbakonam. You pay
a sum of Rupees One thousand or so and indicate
a date. This sum is expected to be deposited in a bank
and the interest accruing out of the same is used to
perform the Nithyaradhanai on that day in the temple
every year. The sum may vary from temple to temple. It
is Rupees one thousand in Uppiliappan Koil. There may
be more than one person in a day and their names are
written on a board in Uppiliappan Koil on that
particular day every year stating donors for
Nithyaradhanai. 
Sriman U Ve Velukkudi Krishnan Swamigal and 
Srimathi Y G Parhtasarathy ( Rashmi) and others have
formed a committee to ensure that Nithyaradhanai is
performed in all Divyadesams. All those who are
interested towards the above can contact them, get the
details and then pass on their donations to the above
Kainkaryam. 
I have a few suggestions which may be considered by
the Bhagawathas. 
All the Divyadesams should be as GLORIOUS as they were
in the past and should continue to be so in future as
well. Nithyaradhanai, Sevas, Thirumanjanams and the
Uthsavams should be performed regularly. Every temple
should have Bhattachars and they should be paid well,
provided with quarters and the education of their
children taken care of. This will ensure that the
Bhattachars are free from worries and will perform all
the poojas with complete involvement. 
It is suggested that a core group be formed with the
head quarters at Madras. This group can identify and
form area wise and temple wise sub groups. These
temple wise groups can be called as Kainkarya sabha of
that temple. They will be responsible for the
Nithyaradhanai etc of that temple, collection of funds
for that temple, investing them and utilising them for
the Nithyaradhanai etc.  Areawise subgroup can ensure
that Temple wise sub groups are formed and guide them
in performing Nithyaradhanai etc. This will help in
ensuring that the temples in an area follow more or
less the same procedure. These temples can straight
away introduce Nithyaradhanai Scheme and get devotees
for all the 365 days of the year. This will ensure
that there is sufficient fund for Nithyaradhani on all
days of the year. Even if there is demand for more
than one person for a particular day it should be
accepted and the aim should be to collect 365 Nithya
Aradhanai Kattalais so that Nithya Aradhanais can be
performed throughout the year. All the temples had
lands of their of their own, especially in Tanjore
District. It is difficult to retrieve these lands. But
the persons who are enjoying them can be approached
and may be requested to contribute every year so many
bags of paddy etc and this will help in prasadam
preperations and as a supplement to bhattachar family
as well who will be responsible to prepare nithya
prasadam for the deities. 

Quite a few temples require renovation. The central
core group and the area wise sub groups can identify
the temples and draw up the plan for the renovation.
The major work in this will be collection of funds and
all the Bhagawathas can contribute towards the same.
It may not be possible to renovate all the temples at
the same time. So it is necessary to prioritise these
temples based on the physical condition of the
buildings. Two or three temples can be taken at a time
for renovation. We can ensure that there is only one
temple in an area at a time to ensure concentration on
that temple in that area. 
In a few years all the temples requiring renovation
can be renovated. There should be seperate
contribution for this on monthly basis from all to
ensure that there is no shortage of funds once the
renovation work is started. By this effort the
buildings in all temples can be restored to their
original glory. 
I have just put down my thoughts for consideration.
These can be improved upon by suggestions by you. 
MAY SRIMAN NARAYANA GUIDE US IN THIS AND HELP US IN
RESTORING THE GLORY OF DIVYADESAMS. 
As suggested by Sriman Sadagopan we can start with the
DivyaDesams in Tamil Nadu.
