a ticket to God's house!

Ever thought about buying an entry ticket to reach God? Well here is your chance now to bribe or bid for the best seat at the God's house.

Last year I planned to take a tour of some famous temples in South India. my first stop was at Tirupathi Balaji...one of the greatest all time Balaji's Temple with all the modern and comfortable facilities for all the thousands of worshipers who drop in daily. I was bowled over by the excellent 24-hour service with they provided, with tranquil availability of all the basic needs for the worshippers, from guest rooms as low as 50re/day, to serving free food in form of maha-prasadam to the massive flock of temple devotees.

Okie! You havent heard anything yet. How about an automated system at the temple? Yes, am still at Tirupathi Balaji Temple, a very hi-fi system of maintaining all the devotees with its computerized system of ticketing for darshana, and allocating all the services to meet the basic needs in no time. You would really agree that God is the 'Super-Computer' of all technologies till date. And mind you, did you know that at Tirupathi Balaji majority of devotees sacrifice their hair to the God as a token of their wishes being granted, and this is one of the biggest temples in South India which earns lakhs of rupees daily by selling those hair abroad. Now I salute the temple for providing free services to the genuine devotees.

Happily departing Balaji, my next stop was at Rameshwaram. To my greatest astonishment, where I always longed to have visited, the place where Lord Rama have once been, is now a commercialized spot for ripping off tourist. The usual 50re to take an entry ticket into the temple is the first main point looting. And as you would take a tour around the temple, there are several wells believed to have holy water which if sprinkled will bring prosperity and good health. But before falling into this trap, one should be fully prepared to empty their pockets into to receive prosperity. Each well has someone standing there and pouring holy-water unto you, and in return its a must to pour several coins.

And as I moved around I got more shocking experience, and very disheartened to the exploitation of God's house by His own sons and daughters.

Anyways, when remembering my very own Indo-fijian temples and worship houses, I felt a sense of pride from within, atleast here I dont have to buy a ticket to the God's house.

Happily arriving home, started worship with great pride and strength. But not for very long. Heard that the tickets are being dispersed freely over here as well... the saints and sages whom I have known to be immensed in the worship of God are now themselves are an advertisement for a ticket to God's house.

God! Are u listening? Are u watching? Why is it getting expensive to worship you? We'll soon go under a bankruptcy but reaching u is getting even harder. Please do something.
