I totally agree with Sri. Venkatramani's move. Let me ask how many Brahmins can 
call him from the overseas? Are we still united? Do we have the courage to 
fight against this clown government? We should not be silent in this regard.

Venkataramani :The AchAryAs have a different mission and can not openlyenter 
the dirty world of politics . They have to provideguidance in a subtle way 
.This has nothing to do with lack ofcourage as you indicate. They have to weigh 
in the sensitivities and be sure whether they are helping or harming their 
cause .The previous CM of TN decided to go after one of the Mataadhipathisand 
we know the results . If a government wants to foist a case and pursue the 
travel on a rotten road , there is precious little one can do except thru the 
lengthy battle in the courts .We have lived thru one such episode in the 
Fourties in the heyday of so called "PeriyAr" out of whose ashes today's 
opportunists arose .These power hungry units have an agenda  to position their 
own friends , cohorts and relatives to rob and plunder .I do not see much point 
in asking the MatAdhipathys to get theirhands dirty in the process of dealing 
with these politicians , whowill not stop at anything . This episode will also 
pass . The TN govt can declare on top of the roofs as to what they want to 
impose . Not much will happen .Their Hindu Endowment Board is a laughing stock 
.We have to sit this out and let these be sorted out at the level ofciitzens 
and courts .V.SadagopanP.S : These low minded politicians are not looking for 
PramANamson Vedam and Aagamam to educate themselves to arrive at a 
rationaldecision . They know exactly waht they want and are after theirgoals of 
amassment of wealth thru their networks . They could not care less as what 
happens at the temples beyond the appointment oftheir cronies to pilfer . 
*****************************************************************Imput from Sri 
R.Venkataramani:very rarely do religious leaders provide leadership from a 
spiritual perspective.  they often lack the courage and knowledge - simple and 
plain. if any one can become archakas, why did they not initiate it? if any one 
cannot, why are they not opposing? instead of waiting for others to speak up 
for the cause, let us unite, learn the real facts based on sastras and fight to 
protect the tradition.      i live in chennai and ready for action on this. we 
have a group of youth who will unite to support this. any one interested in 
protecting veda dharma is free to call me on 9840940108 any time of the day.    
  best regards  rajaram

collection would be needed  for fighting the cause against the order of the 
Govt. ot Tamil Nadu not only abroad but also in India. Before that a forum of 
eminent and knowledgable persons (those who have knowledge in agamas, vedas 
etc.) has to be formed with the consent of leading aacharyas and Hindu 
religious matathipathis. I honestly hope that the step for forum would be 
initiated by our Aandavan ashram or srimatam or both. It should be made clear 
to the public by eminent men by articles, 'patti mantrams' that the peaceful 
fight is not by Brahmins against other sections of the society but the fight 
against an insensitive order of the Government which cares for a tuppence to 
the heritage and basic faiths of the Hindu religion. The Government is cleverly 
trying to paint this issue as a step to remove the so called monopoly of temple 
priest hood from Brahmins. This myth should be exploded by all peacful methods. 
Large segments of real devotees would oppose theGovernment move. They only need 
a  lead. A Government which proclaims no faith in God and worship (but will 
worship the statues of their leaders, garlend them and lit agarbathis!) and 
which follows the leader who called the believers of God as barbarians, 
ironically brings in legislation makig in roads into temple activity.   I do 
not agree that we do not have the strength. Will only is needed and the lead 
has to come from the aacharyas and eminent personalities. They cannot expect 
the common citizen to take up the cause unless they give the lead. I am yet to 
see or hear a single objection from any religous head or men of eminence. That 
is our misfortune.  A.Govindakrishnan
