Namaste',
I request you to please pass the following mail to your distribution
list to help save Tirumala ( a famous Sri Srinivasa/ Sri
VenkatEswara/ Sri Balaji -Temple in Tirupathi, AP, India).
Appreciate your kindness in helping spread the word to preserve our
Vedic/Hindu Religious Historical place with Archeological
importance. If we can't help ourselves, who do we expect help from?.
We already organized protests in front of Indian Consulates in New
York, Washington,DC. etc. and sent appeals to our Respected (Muslim)

Andhra Pradesh, among others. Please respond to me at

petitions pouring in every minute) ... Have YOU ?
"IF YOU CLAIM YOU ARE A RESPONSIBLE CITIZEN IN THIS SOCIETY, THEN,
ALWAYS RESPOND IMMEDIATELY TO ANYTHING THAT DAMAGES THE NOBLE
CAUSE OR DIVINE FAITH OR SOCIAL JUSTICE ETC....., DO YOUR
DUTY.... GOD TAKES CARE OF THE RESULTS."
NEED YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION AT YOUR
EARLIEST CONVENIENCE. Also be kind and understand, if you receive

I believe, if we let it go by ignoring the present, our future would
have been wiped out long time in the past. It is the intention of
the movement to stop such activities going on right now and any
plans for such future activities. And also to request/demand the
Authorities to reconstruct whatever can be to bring back the past in
the near future. Here, in U.S. and maybe in other Western countries,
even a less than a 100 year old structure will be
considered "Historical" and they take lot of pains to restore and
spend enormous amounts to protect and preserve. In India, we are
talking about the structures of great importance and magnitude as
they are representing Vedic Religion and Ancient History. So, kindly
do your part, that is if you agree, and sign the petition and
encourage your friends, family members and neighbors to do the same.
Dear believers in and supporters of: ANCIENT VEDIC / HINDU RELIGION
& HISTORY and
Devotees of Lord Sri Venkateswara (Sri Balaji /VISHNU ),
*** PLEASE HELP SAVE TIRUMALA ***
You may or may not be following what is happening at Tirumala,
Tirupathi during the last six months. TTD Authorities, in the name
of improving the facilities to the visitors, is categorically
destroying the ancient historic structures, all in the name of
the 'Master Plan'. The 600-year old 1000-pillar Mandapam was
demolished completely. The 1000-year old house where the temple
architect once stayed to formulate the procedures was removed. The
garden from where fresh flowers used to garland our beloved Lord is
now in ruins. Instead flowers from cold storage are given to the
Lord. Even the Aaraadhana practices are changed to provide more
visitors to pass through the gates. The world's richest God does
not have proper rest or food. In any country in this world, millions
is spent to restore the old glory, but at Tirumala millions is spent
to destroy the heritage.
Facilities to the visiting devotees can be improved, but without
disturbing the sanctity of Lord's abode. The power and glory of
Tirumala is not only in the sanctum sanctorum, but also the
surroundings. All the structures, gardens, pushkarini, and also
people play their part to maintain the balance. Recent court order
has temporarily stopped the demolitions. Now, it is up to the
Devotees of the Lord around the world to respectfully demand the
authorities not only to restore what was destroyed, but also
provide immunity for the future activities.
This is what we can do at this stage -
1, 2, & 3: PLEASE Visit www.savetirumala.org and sign the
petition. These signatures will play a very big part in the court's
decision on the future proceedings. Also, the governments will have
to take the mass opinion of the people in making their decisions.
You can see a video clip that shows before and after the
destruction. Other links also show many pictures of what is
happening.
This is a test for every devotee of Lord Venkateswara. Let us do our
bit.
History and heritage that is over 600 - 1000 years old is being
wiped out stealthily!
