STATUE OF EQUALITY - 466

 RARAMANUJA ACHARYA STATUE OF EQUALITY AT  HYDERABAD 

I am not sure how many had the fortune or the inclination to watch the unveiling of the Plus 200 Feet Equality Statue  of Saint Ramanuja Acharya at Hyderabad yesterday . The very Size , Magnificence , Attention to Detail , Workmanship , Colours , Lighting and the Spiritual Aspect of the event left everyone in a total daze . 

The Hours , Days , Months and in fact  YEARS that must have taken to conceive and execute a project of such mammoth proportion is equally hard to be imagine  .

That ,  no less than the  PM of the country Shri Narendra Modi graced the occasion to dedicate the Edifice to the Nation spoke volumes of his desire to see an Equality among all citizens of India irrespective of the Caste or Creed as enunciated by Saint RAMANUJA ACHARYA Himself is hard to miss .

The pertinent point to be noted here is that the Saint was a TAMIL and he was being Remembered in TELENGANA and that too at  HYDERABAD IN PARTICULAR .

Many , like me  who have visited TIRUKOSHTIOOR which is some 100 kms from Tanjore would I am sure  vouch for this fact .

The entire Conduct of the function by Chinna Jeer RAMANUJA ACHARYA including the Mass Maha Sankalpam and Puja was a unique experience and one which I have not been fortunate enough to  witness thus far .

ACHARYA GURUVE NAMAHA 

PS : It saddens me to notice a sense of discontent with the past and everything that we valued in the environs close to us  and  in our own state . SAD INDEED .
