Speaking at the inauguration of a religious conference and felicitation programme here, the seer said works on the construction of meditation hall and guest house will begin within one or two months. The mutt has started ‘Dasoha nidhi’ to hold dasoha (mass feeding) at the ashram daily. Money is being raised from the devotees. Programmes like satsanga for couples and value-based programmes for children would also be organised.
Lok Sabha member G S Basavaraj who inaugurated the function, stressed on respecting ‘guru parampara’. Those who used mutts as jumping pad to avail benefits are now indulge in backbiting. They criticise and flay the seers out of frustation. People will teach a lesson for such people, he warned. Suttur Seer Sri Shivarathri Deshikendra , Neelakanta Saranga of Kumbakonam, KHB Chairman G T Devegowda, Additional Secretary Dayashanar, MLC Ashwathnarayanagowda were present.
