PRAYER FOR RAINS!

The whole State of Telangana is immersed in the mammoth greenery program


called HARITHA HARAM. This was started from Chilkur in 2015 July.
Telangana Ku Haritha Haram programme is the long-term solution to the perennial
drought problem of the State and also the Country. Similar to the situation that existed
last year, newspapers based on the dry spell till then, predicted a drought in the State
on July 12th 2017.
To alleviate the sufferings devotees pray to Lord Balaji at Chilkur through
Varunajapam every year. The priests recite Varunajapam with the following topline

<<z tz utuT z w u suT z D ouqT:@


o F ro oFt qz uo oFt q z uuo @ @>>
(Meaning :- let all divine beings residing in all the worlds come here, reside and
protect the rituals, worship and the entire place.)
The sun was shining brightly, on July 13, 2017 when the recitation started after
the pundits walked into the lake, people who had seen would believe; the clouds started
forming on the lake and it drizzled in the night in many areas. The third day onwards
the rains were very heavy. Even the illiterate villagers of the tiny hamlet were touched
by the dedication of the archakas.
This year in addition to the Varunajapam conducted by the Archakas and Ritwiks
a unique musical prayer for rains titled "Nakshatra Veena" was also performed on
August 10th, at the Divine Abode of Lord Balaji Venkateshwara Swamy in Chilkur Balaji
Temple. It was a soul-stirring Veena Recital by 27 accomplished artists.
There are three principal musical instruments mentioned in the Vedic literature,
Veena, Venue and Mridanga. While Veena is a stringed instrument, Venu the flute is
a wind instrument and Mridanga is beat instrument. All these instruments have found
mention in the Hindu puranas and considered most sacred. Often Hindu Gods and
Goddesses are depicted as playing Veena. Sri Saraswati Goddesses of knowledge
is seen as sitting on a while lotus and playing Veena.
Megharanjani and other ragas believed to be rain inducing melodies was performed
as a prayer for bringing down copious rains. The devotion, the dedication and concern
for the sufferings of the society were clearly visible in the group of musicians. A pure
prayer with selfless intent will always be answered by the Lord. The musicians at
Chilkur performed with devotion and lack of selfish motive. This dedication and concern
cannot be achieved by paying any amount of money in return. Ever since the varuna
japam by dedicated and selfless Archakas and Ritwiks and the Veena recital by dedicated
and selfless musicians for the welfare of the society the State has been experiencing
incessant rains by the grace of Lord Chilkur Balaji. Let us all pray to the Lord to bless
us with copious rains.

There should be no regional boundaries for temples.

NEWS Remembering PVRK Prasad The Institution Builder...
PVRK Prasad (77 years) who expired on 21-8-2017, believed in system and recommended solutioins for many
complicated situations.... We at 'VAK' remember him for all his contributions towards the Temple System at large. Below
are a few key old news items to remember him... -Editor
For Tirumala Darshanam Issue ...
The Three Member Committee (Committee of Experts popularly known as PVRK Prasad Committee
headed by Sri PVRK Prasad, Sri Chengappa, Ex-Commissioner of Endowments, Sri Chakradhar
Rao, Ex-Joint Executive Officer, TTD all of them Retired IAS Officers) had recommended the dispensing
of the Darshan Ticket system. This Committee was constituted in the year 2004 by the Government
to suggest on the Master Plan for TTD and they have given an excellent report on Temple Administration.
Unfortunately, even the top officers of the TTD have no time to read the report which is 558 pages and
contains 19 appendices. VAK is publishing the relevant extracts from the report.. Pages 198,199,
Recommendations 10.2, 10.3.
Before we make our recommendations, let us examine the darshan situation in the Tirumala
temple. There is free darshan, there is darshan with purchase of Arjitha seva tickets and darshan
by purchasing darshan tickets. There has been lot of criticism about the introduction of darshan
tickets from several organizations including Temple Protection Committee, Hindu Sampradaya Parirakshana
committee, etc. Many such organizations have been very vocal about this issue, not only relating
to Tirumala but with reference to the entire temple administration in the state. There has been a
feeling that temples have become very commercial. There is discrimination between paying pilgrim
and nonpaying pilgrim. Fortunately or unfortunately this seva concept have been introduced in Tirumala
when the Chairman of the present committee was the executive officer during 1978 to 1982 .
Care has to be taken in managing queue lines in such a way that sevadars should be able to get
darshan as quickly as possible. However, the seva darshan queue and general queue shall merge
either at Mahadwaram or at Vendivakili. The temple can think of having two to three categories of
Arjitha seva tickets for all Arjitha sevas performed and provide convenient darshan. The darshan
facility on the purchase of any Arjitha seva ticket can be availed throughout the day when the temple
is open for darshan. Other details can be worked out by T.T.D. Reading the above, it is very
clear that the PVRK Prasad Committee has recommended withdrawal of Darshan tickets.
For Chilkur Temple Issue ...
The High Courts Judgment dated 10.2.2006 on Sri Balaji temple Chilkur was misinterpreted deliberately
and used as a tool to victimize and destroy the temple system. We had to publish the real analysis in
VAK in the month of March 2006. The authorities were stubborn in not accepting the true analysis and
due to the severe agony and frustration of the Devotees, we had to approach the Supreme Court. The
Apex Court heard this Special Leave Petition on 31st March 2006 and delivered its Judgment the same
day. The intensity of the opinion of the Judges was in favour of the de- commercialization and de- politicization
of temples being done at Chilkur.
The Hindu News paper dt. 2-4-2006 reported...
"SC clarifies on trust board for Chilkur temple - J. Venkatesan
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday said that the Andhra Pradesh Government should take an independent
decision on the constitution of a Board of Trustees to administer the Chilkur Balaji temple in Ranga Reddy
district without any reference to the High Court order.
A Bench of Justice Ruma Pal and Justice Dalveer Bhandari, (Presently serving at International Court of
Justice) disposing of a special leave petition filed by M.V. Soundara Rajan (who is now managing the
affairs of the temple), clarified that the High Court had not dealt with the contentions of the petitioner with
respect to the appointment of a trust board to administer the Balaji temple. The Bench, therefore, permitted
the State Government to independently decide the issue...."
Keeping in view the sensitive nature of the entire issue relating to Chilkur temple, particularly
the orders of the Honble Supreme Court of India, Dt. 31.3.06 and further based on representation
from Dr. M. V. Soundararajan, Hereditary Archaka cum Trustee, Chilkur Balaji temple and your
Editor, the Govt. of AP issued G.O. Ms. No. 678 Dt. 9/6/2006, appointing the Three-man Committee
of experts, under the Chairmanship of Sri PVRK Prasad IAS (Retd.).
Actually, Chilkur's blessed experiment with a focus on delinking money and God, influence and God
should get extended to all the temples. The least that can be expected is to allow this unique experiment
to continue unhindered. The philosophy behind the experiment and the miraculous divine sanction should
be taken together and future course of action must be a realistic and befitting one.
Sri PVRK Prasad Committee submitted its report on August 15, 2006 after taking into consideration
over 75,000 signatures and 68,994 online petitions and suggestions emerging at public hearings.
This report resulted in a Unique GO for Chilkur Balaji Temple... !
