Serve our Temples ( Ancient Vaishnava Shrines -
Divya Desams)
Maintaining an ancient temple is better than building a hundred new ones.
That is the reason why Yashoda who brought up Sri Krishna, attained
greater eminence compared to Devaki who gave birth to Him. When the
temple is a Divyadesam, the service is all the more significant.
?Serve our Temples? is an intiative to help our temples by
restoring basic services, food, shelter, education, financial
independence
Dream a little. Do a little
"What we can do, we must" - As He allows us to use His
resources for Him via devotees like us.
Back home in India, there are so many temples deprived of their basic
needs and services, primarily due to lack of funds. With galloping
prices, temple assets stripped, no government support, the temples have
never found it as difficult to sustain as they have now. Most of the
temples are deprived of basic necessities for the unhindered performance
of minimum daily prayers.
1. One priest to offer prayers and keep the premises clean
and open for devotees (Rs: 2500 per month)
2. Food (Prasadam), Oil, Flowers (Rs 2500 per month)
With just $120 per month (Rs 5000 per month) we have a divine opportunity
to preserve a temple. It is the solemn duty to preserve the temple not
only for current day devotees to have a divine Darshan but also for our
future generations.
From the U.S, far away from India, yet you can still make a difference.
Allow His Grace to flow, and spend His money for His causes.
Vedics Foundation volunteers to serve as a bridge between those willing
devotees who have resources and the temples in need. Vedics has already
reached out to a few temples.
