Mangaluru, Dec 4: Over one hundred devotees took part in the modifiedyede snana' on the premises of the Sri Subrahmanya Temple at Kukke on the outskirts of the city on Saturday on the occasion of Chowthi and the annual fair.

1yede'Yede Snana' is an alternative evolved in place of the controversial, age-old practice of Made Snana, wherein lower caste devotees roll over the left over food partaken by the Brahmins.

After the mahapuja, food offerings made to the presiding deity Sri Subrahmanya, were laid on about 432 plantain leaves spread at the outer precincts of the temple.

Temple cows were allowed to consume the food initially, after which the devotees performed theyede snana'.

Thereafter, they had bath in the Darpana Teertha outside the temple before having the darshan of the deity.

The temple administration had made elaborate arrangements for the peaceful observance of the ritual, which is being done for the fourth time since 2014.

Temple managing committee president Nityanand Mundodi, executive officer Ningaiah, and others were present on the occasion.

Wake up guys...
Quran says ALLAH is the creator of all that exists
All human beings are equal , Racism is not allowed in ISLAM...
Quran speaks of human equality in the following terms:
O Mankind, We (God) have created you from a male and a female and have made you into nations and tribes for you to KNOW one another. Truly, the NOblest of YOU with GOD is the MOST PIOUS . Truly God is all knowing, all aware. (49:13)

Islam REJECTS certain individuals or nations being favored becos of their wealth, power or race.

Prophet Muhammad pbuh said O people! Your God is ONE and Your forefather (Adam) is ONE. An arab is not better than a non arab and a non arab is not better than an arab. A white person is not better than a black person nor a black person is not better than a white person EXCEPT in PIETY...

Learn who is the CREATOR .. U will recognize the deception of all this superstitious rituals all around us...

Chamaranagara, Mar 29: As many as 595 Tamil Nadu-based fishermen, who were working in Mangaluru, crossed the Karnataka border and reached their state via Chamarajanagar on Saturday.

Police said following the lockdown, the fishermen had left Mangaluru in more than 20 vehicles. The fishermen crossed the Karnataka border through Punajur check-post. However, the vehicles returned after dropping them near Hasanur check-post in Tamil Nadu.

As the fishermen had no proper documents, they were stopped by Tamil Nadu Police. However, the police allowed them after screening. The Tamil Nadu government arranged vehicles to ferry them, said a police officer.

Mangaluru, Mar 7: After coronavirus cases were confirmed in different parts of the country, there has been a sudden jump in demand for mask and safety gears like gloves and sanitizers in Mangaluru and Udupi.

With the increase in demand, medical shop owners said that they were finding it difficult to meet the demand.

In fact, there is a demand for bulk supply of masks and gloves. There was demand for masks when Covid-19 was confirmed in China two months ago. Bulk quantities of masks were purchased in order to supply them to Indian employees working in China. A few private firms had purchased masks from Mangaluru in the month of December.
