Mr Karti should clarify how letting go of government control will lead to exclusion of marginalised communities. Are you aware that there is something called the "Temple Entry Authorisation Act" of 1947 that specifically prevents discrimination of Hindus from entering temples.
By the way, what measures do you have today to prevent any such discrimination happening in Christianity? At least, there is a legal framework available for Hindus. And before lecturing about no such thing in Christianity, first check about the troubles faced by Dalit Christians.
More importantly, did he ever ask the temples be given to him? Why are you spreading such false ideas? If you have any proof for that, please publish it.

For someone who is so concerned about our temples, what have you got to say about their pathetic state currently? Image
It's already bad that our temples are languishing so badly that thousands of them have no maintenance whatsoever. Do you want all Hindus to be sitting on the sidelines watching them completely be razed? Why are you silent on the loot of temples or are you also part of that gang? Image

The source of hatred towards Sadhguru protected on SM by a certain section of Hindu Traditionalists seems to be based on him successfully galvanizing massive public support to #FreeHinduTemples!

No wonder the British were able to divide and rule us so easily in the past 🤦‍♂️ ImageImage
Did Sadhguru ever say he is the one to start a movement like this? NO

Did pioneers of the movement to legally & constitutionally free Hindu temples, like @trramesh or @jsaideepak say so? NO

Did anyone get this kind of public support before or did anyone prevent them? Perhaps No
Did Sadhguru or his team ever publish anything like them being the only custodians of temple freedom movement? NO

Did many Dharmic gurus from across the country support this endeavour? YES

Then why is so much angst & acrid behaviour towards Sadhguru from some sections alone?

BS is all in Vaibhav's mind it appears, misinterpreting Raas as sexual, Lover as sexual and Gopi's devotion to Krishna as sexual. Well, a mind full of such filth can only spew more of that!

There are so many ridiculous points that I was flabbergasted where to even start.
As I started going through his thread, there are misinterpretations after misinterpretations and deliberate misrepresentation in some cases.

This n00b thinks he can identify a Dharmacharya because "they would know Sanskrit and will be from a tradition".
Somebody please ask him how that traditional paths started in the first place and such illogical reasoning was why even Adi Shankara was ridiculed by so many others in his own lifetime. People often worship gurus after they leave but not when they are alive 😏

"Oh, what will happen with a missed call?" ask some people.

Simple - you register your vote of support for a particular cause. Whoever you are supporting can then democratically put pressure on the ruling government to take a specific action.
Many political parties have used this missed call mechanism to garner support for a cause and even some TV channels have used it.
"What happened with the RFR missed calls?"

Many points from the rally for rivers policy documentation have been taken into account when the national water policy was updated. This became possible because of public support through several means including missed calls.

I received a message on WhatsApp recently:

"Govt of TN that had taken over the Nanganallur Anjaneyar Temple, today announced that they will return the temple management to the trustees. The Free TN Temples is already beginning to show early wins. (1/n)
This is a step in the right direction as devotees must manage temples and govt must stay out of it."

Why is this news a cause for celebration and what is the #FreeTNTemples effort?

There has been systematic exploitation & destruction of Tamilnadu’s temples for a while now.(2/n)
In many cases, the primary culprit is the HR&CE dept — Hindu Religious & Charitable Endowments — which ironically is supposed to be taking care of the temples.

So, a few years back, some people started taking steps to free up Tamilnadu temples from the control of HR&CE. (3/n)

So, Kalaignar TV put forth absolute BS about Sadhguru's posting regarding temples with a supposed 'expert' who is good at speaking lies left, right and centre.

This post will throw some light on these lies and expose the people who are spreading them.

#SlanderSansSubstance
Thirumavelan is the guy chosen for spreading this propaganda by KTV.

#1: He starts by saying that saints should not do campaigns.

I do not know why he remained silent when open campaigns were done for DMK in churches and mosques. Perhaps because it suited their agenda?
#2: Thirumavelan goes on to try & re-emphasize the same old lie about Isha occupying forest lands.

Though he chose to not mention it, rebuttals have long been given along with the survey numbers also to show that they have not touched any forest land.

Whatever Sadhguru speaks makes news these days. Some people are bent on making controversies though out of his statements.

One such vermin started spreading a news that Sadhguru has asked for closing of Government schools.

#FakeNews #FraudShankar
This thing started after today's Pongal Satsang at Isha Yoga Center.

As is the wont, more vermins started spreading this garbage around.

What basically happened is Sadhguru was talking about how to choose who to vote for and was speaking about the right for education to all.
Sadhguru suggested that instead of Government trying to run schools & not maintaining them properly, they can let schools be run by top educationalists and instead sponsor the fees required for underprivileged students.

Anyone who has seen a Govt school in TN knows the truth.
