Joining temple-cleaning drive is the duty towards Dharma !
Hindus’ temples are source of ‘chaitanya’. If this source is preserved, temples’ sanctity would also be maintained. One’s ‘bhav’ is invoked as one enters such ‘jagrut’ temples. It is therefore, duty of every Hindu towards Dharma, to maintain cleanliness in temples located in their surrounding areas. Nowadays, government administration doesn’t take proper care of temples. Temples also don’t have enough funds for maintenance. It creates problems in keeping temples clean as regular cleaning is not carried out. In this background, Hindus will certainly acquire God’s blessings if they would undertake such drives.
Programs to celebrate 75th birthday of any socially renowned person or politicians or artists are organized keeping that person in centre; but ‘Paratpar Guru’ Dr. Athavale, who has been ceaselessly working for protection of nation and Dharma, has done none of these things; instead He gives inspiration to ‘Hindutvavadis’ for protection of nation and Dharma. With His grace, all such drives are getting good response from people. It’s difficult to offer adequate gratitude at His feet since that would still be insufficient !
