Devotees go to Sringeri Saradha Peetam,Kanchi Kamkoti Peetam,TTD Dewaswom,Guruvayur Dewaswom and Sabarimalai Dewaswom and pour money,give cheques for 40L,50L, give cash,kind,jewels..what not..
It is fine.
You continue to make those matams richer and richer.
But look at this too.
In Thanjavur,Kumbakonam side,many temples in micro interior villages don't get oil to light lamps.
No salary. They say they are doing the service without getting anything.
e.g., Keezha Sooriya moolai temple. The Kurukkal is coming from Tiruloki for morning poojai.
No rice from the temple property to prepare Neivedhyam. The priests are Not able to afford a minimum living.
Plenty of Temple priests,Temples are not receiving adequate support from anyone. It has been ages since they received monetary support.
No medical attention for their wives,children.
Living in pathetic condition.
Who will take care of them,those temples?
