Jai Srimannarayana Friends,
My two cent..
 
Question is "Does our Lord lost his glory???". Ofcourse, he lost his glory. Otherwise when something happened to him and his house, how come a devotee didn't respond to it. How did we respond to TSUNAMI? I know i am trying to compare apples and oranges. But just take a point. We all felt the TSUNAMI disaster. It is only because of another human being who was affected by this disaster. Just think, if some animals washed away, would it have the same kind of response.
The same thing here too. How many of us felt the pain seeing our Lord dis-robed? How many of us responded to the call to restore the vedic culture, traditions and heritage at Tirumala. How many of us endorsed the online petition at http://www.zeroguru.com/petition.html and sent email protests at http://www.zeroguru.com/savevishnu.html.
The panel formed by AP Government is going every other place and taking the opinion of people about the demolition of Tirumala. Look at our pathetic situation. It is like asking Oracle executives "whether the aquisition of Peoplesoft is right or wrong? They even asked non-beleivers of Lord Narayana.
I beleive in one thing. If I pray GOD and come to know that some ancient structures destroyed at Tirumala, my first response is to show concern and protest against it. DOESN't matter the reasons behind it. Thats what I do if I see the same thing happeinig to my friends, family person or any other human being. I do the samething for my GOD too. We dont need for some one to tell us to act like that.
 
Any ways, friends please show your concerns and protest against these vandalisim of TTD at Tirumala by sending your email protests to Chariman, Master Plan Committiee at http://www.zeroguru.com/savevishnu.html. Also write Om namo Venkatesaya for the welfare of every being in this universe. This will definetly have a good impact and help the noble cause. Just remember the famous Sri Rama mantram and its effect in the past.
 
Jai Srimannarayana

Sri:
Dear Swamin
Adiyen wish to clarify few points on my earlier mail , though I had
it in mind it was reflected in words :(
Adiyen could understand the motive behind the Jeeyar's initiative ,
and agreed it should be in line with your message too and also as
Smt.Chitra Madhan put it across when we started writting His nAma we
started thinking about Him and His KalyAna gunAs and its really
wonderful to do so.

So my query was not to question Sri .Tridhandi Chinna Jeeyar swamy
(for which Adiyen neechan has no gnAnam and Anushtanam , totally not
fit as well), my thinking was mainly to fellow bhAghavadAs mind set
while writting this nAmA.

Adiyen's apologies at the feet of Alarmel mangai samedha Thiruvengada
MudayAn, Sri. Jeeyar swamy and bhAghavAdas for hurting the feelings
of SriVaishnavAs.
