Another Tamil Nadu temple under attack-4 =================================== Kancheepuram KachchapEswara temple is about 1600 years old. The HR and CE officials cut down sthala vrukshas and pooja flower yielding trees such as Nagalinga ,Sarak konRai,vanni ,mango,peepal,neem,bilva They cut the Nelli ( Amalaka) tree which is the sthala vruksha of the temple. Sthala vrukshas are as sacred as the murthi. It is said that the deity resides in sthala vruksha when the murthis or idols are being renovated. Moreover Sanatanis make promises and pledges under sthala vrukshas and adhere to it. There is a documented evidence of Sthala vruksha coming in as witness in Madurai Meenakshi temple( will write about it as a series of 64 leelas of Shiva). The picture shows the cut wooden pieces. Sthala vrukshas are never pruned or cut. The excuse the officers used was to use the wood in a yagnya or havan. Sanatana destruction is going on at a rapid pace in Tamil Nadu. Please take it to the attention of art and culture ministry or anyone who can stop these irrepairable attrocities. Goverments and parties will change but destruction of 1600 plus years old temples and trees can not be recovered or rejuvenated as we do not have the knowledge or equivalent technologies to restore them. #SthalaVrukshaDestruction #SaveTamilNaduTemples

The reconstruction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is more than bricks and mortar; it's a symbolic resurgence against centuries of temple destruction. From Mahmud of Ghazni to Aurangzeb, Hindu temples bore the brunt of iconoclastic aggression. Today, harmony beckons the return of sites like Mathura, Somnath, and Varanasi. Emphasizing the call for redressal, we believe harmony in Indian society requires Muslims to give back sites of destroyed Hindu temples and collectively apologize for the historical harm done to Hindus.

Kailash temple at Ellora is something of the next level, inspiring numerous artists and scholars. One such magnificent example comes from the pages of Saint Jnaneshvara of Maharashtra in his greatest philosophical work Amritanubhava in Marathi. Deva deula parivaru kijekoruni dongaru Taisa bhaktika vyavaharukana vhava II -Amritanubhava (9.43) “In the supreme devotion, therefore, the devotee has nothing but God even for his material or worship. Here, it may be impossible, for he tells us that from the same rock are carved the idol of God, the temple and God's attendants, which seem to be different, and are yet one.” -Translated by Professor R. D. Ranade FYI: Kailasa temple located in Cave number 16 at Ellora, Aurangabad is 300 feet long and 175 feet wide, and it is carved out of a mountain that was over a 100 feet high. Contrary to many other ancient rock structures, this temple complex was built from top to bottom rather than bottom to top. The job was done with no better tools than a chisel and hammer. References in inscriptions of the Rashtrakuta dynasty attribute the erection of Kailasa temple to the patronage of the Rashtrakuta monarch Krishna I (757-72 A.D.). In fact, the temple was originally named Krishneshvara after the Rashtrakuta King, but is now known as Kailasa. Sources: https://lnkd.in/gFa5CV66 https://lnkd.in/g-ZNcbCb https://lnkd.in/gEmyuTBr
