    Why do temples keep huge wealth without proper planning. Why cant they give this wealth back to the needy people of the society.

    After the news of treasure at Trivandrum temple, many temples big and small have been robbed for any administration this gives ample time to react and secure the temple wealth...Somnath temple was looted several times, nobody stopped the looting looting. Nowadays temples and commoners alike..nobody cares...Again trie wealth is your knowledge, faith and spirituality...nobody ca steal that from you...material wealth comes and goes...

    What one can expect from this type of thieves? They have no fear to God and they will go to any extent to have easy money.
    At the same time " enemy within is more dangerous than outside."

    Poverty and desperation cause of this loot. Our society is so massively divided rich are super wealthy and poor are super skint.If we bring this to balance somewhere in the middle these things might not happen in the same scale which we see so many incidents these days.

    Why god need money? God and gods men must try to lessen peoples misery. Love of God is in the heart of the people. It's high time for the gods to think about people and lessen their sufferings.

    Vinayak, mangalore / Dubai, theaves have no religion. What about those goondas who attacked the churches, are they thieves or had lost their mind? They will pay one by one even if they are not caught. Any attack on places of worship and on any innocent human person is a crime before humanity and divinity, irrespective of religion.

    Due to GOLD&SILVER's skyrocketing price such kind of burglary is natural.However place of worship is a sensitive place in which police and management of temple committee must take some extra caution in these situation.

    Why do people do not have fear of god ? What is happenning in our own country ? How safe it would be in future ? Is this the sign of wicked taking over the goodness and by which the supreme power "god" will bring the world to an end ?
