Secular Eyes on wealth of Padmanabhaswamy Temple Recently there has been a lot of controversy on how to use the temple wealth found at one our Padmanabhaswamy Temple in southern India. All the media channels have systematically taken the debate in another direction, tried to give our temple secular color. If one looks at the perspective then it can be easily stated that all approaches have been made to make us feel that this wealth belongs to the Government of India. CNNIBN & NDTV are two of the major channels among others who have tried to scuttle our wealth by their polarized debates. It is quite easy to do so. First one must understand that what these channels are. Even though their Editors are all Indians, and are so called respected journalists, with decades of service to the Indian Media, they are not that ethically or morally clean. They are all very well known as close to Congress and some of these journalists / editors have been awarded the Padma awards also. I don’t want to deviate from the current topic, otherwise congress history, their affinities cannot be compiled in one article. It may run into books. I have given some links at the bottom of this article for the enthusiasts. They tend to work on the directions of their masters. One must be wondering who their masters really are. Let us first look at the ownership and funding of these media houses. Who owns the media in India ? There are several major publishing groups in India, the most prominent among them being the Times of India Group, the Indian Express Group, the Hindustan Times Group, The Hindu group, the Anandabazar Patrika Group, the Eenadu Group, the Malayalam Manorama Group, the Mathrubhumi group, the Sahara group, the Bhaskar group, and the Dainik Jagran group. Let us see the ownership of these media agencies. NDTV: A very popular TV news media is funded by the Gospels of Charity in Spain which supports Communism. Recently it has developed a soft corner towards Pakistan because the Ex-President Musharraf had allowed only this channel to be aired in Pakistan. Indian Division CEO Prannoy Roy is the co-brother of Prakash Karat, General Secretary of Communist Party of India. His wife and Brinda Karat are sisters. India Today which used to be the only national weekly who supported BJP is now bought by NDTV and since then the tone has changed drastically and turned into Hindu bashing. No prizes for guessing why. CNN-IBN: This is 100 percent funded by Southern Baptist Church with its branches in all over the world with HQ in US. The Church annually allocates $800 million for promotion of its channel. Its Indian heads are Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife Sagarika Ghosh. Times group list: Times Of India, Mid-Day, Nav-Bharth Times, Stardust , Femina, Vijaya Times, Vijaya Karnataka, Times now (24- hour news channel) and many more. Times Group is owned by Bennet & Coleman. ‘World Christian Council‘ does 80 percent of the Funding, and an Englishman and an Italian equally share balance 20 percent. The Italian Robertio Mindo is a close relative of Sonia Gandhi. Star TV: It is run by an Australian, who is supported by St. Peters Pontificial Church, Melbourne. Hindustan Times: Owned by Birla Group, but hands have changed since Shobana Bhartiya took over. Presently it is working in Collobration with Times Group (refer above). Its present editor is Vinod Sharma, is offered membership of National commission of minorities by Congress. The Hindu: English daily, started over 125 years has been recently taken over by Joshua Society, Berne, Switzerland. N.Ram’s wife is a Swiss national. Indian Express: Divided into two groups:The Indian Express and The New Indian Express (southern edition): ACTS Christian Ministries have major stake in the Indian Express and later is still with the Indian counterpart. Eeenadu: Still to date controlled by an Indian named Ramoji Rao. Ramoji Rao is connected with film industry and owns a huge studio in Andhra Pradesh . Andhra Jyothi: The Muslim Party of Hyderabad known as MIM along with a Congress Minister has purchased this Telugu daily very recently. The Statesman: It is controlled by the Communist Party of India. Kairali TV: It is controlled by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) Mathrubhoomi: Leaders of Muslim League and Communist Leaders have major investment. Asian Age and Deccan Chronicle: Is owned by a Saudi Arabian Company with its chief Editor M.J. Akbar.(Now changed) News 24 owned by Anuradha Prasad (Wife of Rajiv Shukla of Congress). Investment is routed through their own company BAG films to mask it. All of the above can make it very clear that most of the so called “Respected/Secular” media houses are controlled by Vatican & Mecca affiliates. Also, it must be clear to most of the people by now that Congress is also dedicated to the Vatican & Mecca societies. The former due to its current President (Sonia Gandhi) and the later due to vote bank politics. It’s the single point agenda of this party to continuously appease and cultivate these minorities in the land of Hindus, so that they can rule us forever. Even we Hindus don’t have any problem with the rulers. Throughout history we have shown peaceful behavior when we were first ruled by Islamist Mughal Invaders and subsequently by the Christian British Imperialists. So be it, Congress wants to rule us, we allowed them to do so by voting them to power 95% of time since independence and do so loyally now also. But there is a limit to our exploitation. We keep silent when they appease other minority communities, cultivate them, and offer them everything right from reservations in schools/jobs, to other cash imbibed benefits. All in the name of the backward / undeveloped / poor communities. One must not be aware that presently any donation to Hindu Trust (i.e. Temples) is not exempt from Income Tax. But if you make donation to any Christian or muslim organization, then it is fully exempt. Not only that, but no Hindu trust enjoys tax exemption in any country of the world. But all the foreign investments / donations made to any Christian / Muslim trust is exempt from Income Tax in India. They have no upper limit to get money, so imagine how much Foreign funding is coming to reach out and develop these communities. The profits they make by their businesses here are fully exempt from any taxes, even sale tax for that matter. These schemes serve dual purpose at the same time. First they Financal resources for Hindus deteriorate periodically while on the other hand profits of Foreign institutions increase manifold. Fine, it’s the nature of Hindus, which is imbibed in their blood through ages to be silent as far as possible. They are the last ones to resort to violence. They are the ones with highest tolerance. They can tolerate anything but there is only one thing which they cannot and will never tolerate. And currently these so called Masters made the unpardonable mistake. There has been a wave of bashing them like never before on Twitter and Facebook. Yes, Twitter and Facebook, as the content control is directly with the people unlike media houses which are controlled by masters and play/leak selectively. Their current and biggest mistake so far has been now trying to snatch our temple wealth. Since, the matter is of large scale, many nationalists like me decided to write our heart down. One must say that where were we when the wealth of our other temples were looted. We were not aware when all these was happening with systematic planning. But in this age, all thanks to facebook and Twitter, news spreads faster than light. Many well-wishers leak the news there for the benefit of the community. Lets understand what these cronies tried to do with the temple money. First of all they invite few so called higly respected historians on their TV shows. They continuously debate one thing: How to use our temple money. Hello!! Who invited / authorized you to speak / decide for us. Leave our affairs on the wisdom of our people and our spiritual leaders. These historians tried to give a secular color to the temple. They say that the temple money has lot of donations from the muslim and Christian people. Who asked them to donate to our temples? If they have done so then its out of their own belief not our force or recommendations for our deity. Have you seen anywhere in the world that donation money is recalled or share is asked by the donator. Its not a public company where one may ask for his share in the profits. The Royal family of Thiruvananthapuram, have guarded these wealth for generations and have seen to it that it is not misused. They protected it from all sorts of cruel / anti national rulers of this country. Be it the Mughals or the Britishers. Everyone knows well how Britishers looted our wealth. Before they started ruling us our GDP was 22.5% of the world while when they left, they ruined us from all the sides and brought it down to mere 2.5%. This Royal Family protected our cultural artifacts, historical wealth for ages. Now these goons want this to develop our economy by this money. Nobody talks about the historical and cultural importance of this wealth. They simply convert into present value of precious metal + little antique value and want to auction it and proceed with this wealth to fund the education system and food problems of the country. Some even go to the extent of saying that lets mortgage these findings, and take the money to fund all the government activities. These goons have already mortgaged our country long back and have not yet got it back. They what is the surety of getting our artifacts back once we do it. Then people like Nehru may say that it was old and had started deteriorating and hence we left it didn’t get it back, just the way when he gave our won land back to china, for whom many of our soldiers laid down their lives. One must not forget their sacrifices, which the families of those soldiers still struggle to earn money to have bread once a day. The future of their children has been permanently dented, wonder where they are? If so, then is the government going to compensate the temple by giving them interest for mortgaging its wealth to fund its own activities? These questions need to be asked. That’s not it, these goons even went to the extent to insult our temple. These people say that it was looted wealth from nearby kingdoms. You people don’t claim back our Kohinoor diamond from British which was also looted, wasn’t it? First get it back to the people of India and then talk about our wealth. If it was looted then they should have filed a case when we became independent, at that time we still had all the rulers of the princely states living, and could have been resolved. But why suddenly now, you realized that this was all looted wealth? Yes, I understand that it was all due to the amount which is found in one of our temple. These people are greedy and have set their eyes on our wealth. These cronies are experts in systematically tarnishing images especially of all Hindus. We have recent example of what they did with Baba Ramdev and Team Anna. They have just tarnished their reputation by their venomous mouth for permanent. Now it’s the time of our temples. These cronies say that this money is equivalent to 10 times the Education funding requirement of the country, and if used so than for 10 years education problem can be solved and the illiteracy can be eliminated totally. First of all, who told you that Indians and especially Hindus are illiterate? Hindus may not have read Bhagvad Gita, gone to Engineering / Law schools like you, but they are much more educated in terms of worldly and spiritual life. They know the difference between right and wrong. That’s all the education one needs to sail through the journey called Life! Some even said that food problem can be solved. I might give in to that, but why should I? It was the prerogative and responsibility of the successive governments to guarantee it. They have failed in their duty completely and now they want us to bail them out. Why not ask Vatican or Mecca for help this time too as usual. Let’s look at the amount in picture. Different media houses have given different valuation reports of the wealth ranging from 50000 Crores to 100000 (1 Lakh) Crores Hindustan Rupees. Their valuation methodology is not quite clear, whether they have factored in antique / rarity values or not remains to be seen. But for ease of calculation and representation let’s assume that the findings are worth 1 Lakh crore, but I strongly believe that these findings are invaluable, it would be an insult to value it and try to sell it. So these people want 1 Lakh crore rupees from the temple and run the country’s premier schemes in the name of Gandhi. Did any media goon talk about getting our 1.76 Lakh crore back from 2G scam or 70000 Crore back from CWG. These are the latest examples, and the hot issues which the country is dealing with and is frustrated to an extent also. I have listed few scams of this foreign government below. My utter thanks to Maloy Krishna Dhar, who listed all of this on his website recently, and is one of the few high ranking / deeply rooted government officer, who has tried to save the country from the invaders time and again and has worked to restore the glory of our beloved Bharatmata. Imagine, if we get this scam money back, then wouldn’t it be more useful to fund our national (notional) schemes? One might argue that congress members have given statement in favor of keeping this wealth with the temple. But one must read between the lines to decipher these notorious goons. They say that they don’t want the wealth, but all their sponsored people are sent to media houses to make statement in favor of using that for the country. Also, some of their spokesman have stated that all the communities need to come together to decide what needs to be done with these wealth. Nobody invited us, to decide how to use their foreign funding, did anybody? Then why all the hue and cry for my property. It’s better to send them strict signals to mind their own business. Though we are united India, it’s nobody’s concern to look into the matters relating to one’s belief, religion and His God. We don’t interfere in your Christ and Allah Matters, hence better stay away from My Gods. Let’s look it from another perspective. One can Google and find enough scriptures and article about this temple. It is proven to be at least 400 years old. Imagine the subject wealth was accumulated some 200 years ago. The royal family has been guarding it since then. Let’s also go to an extent and assume that it is the safe deposit vault of the bank. Banks spend atleast 1% (on conservative terms) amount of the wealth to be guarded on security expenses. So, if we consider the fees of the Royal Family and add just 10% commercial (conservative) compound interest on their fees, then the government of India or the people of India who want this wealth have to pay atleast 7.5 times the current value of wealth to have it. Are they prepared to do so? Just ask this question to any of the journalist or congress fellow and hear what they say. In any case all their claims are fraudulent and does not have any merit in their arguments. Some people argue that they don’t want to set precedence by forcefully taking the temple wealth. They have already done so in few cases, but without any media hue and cry. Tirupati Temple in Andra Pradesh is one such example. Everybody’s eyes are glued to the temple currently, is because it has been proved that it is the richest shrine in the world. But they are forgetting that this is India, All our shrines can outpast any worldly religious organization easily and with an untouchable margin. This is the current case which they are debating, but soon they will start process to draft a Temple Impeachment bill which might ultimately lead to enactment of Right to Poverty bill and Right to Being Anti-Hindu bill. So my Hindu Family members, I urge all of you to forget our minor differences, and unite in these testing times to overthrow this systematically planned vendetta against us.
