Udupi, Jul 26: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt has warned that separation of Veerashaiva-Lingayat community from the Hindu dharma will be a loss for both Hindus and Lingayats.Pejawar seer

“State government has not submitted any proposal to the Union government on the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community becoming a religion. There was only discussion going on this matter. If there is division in the Hindu community, it will be a loss for both,” the seer told media persons here.

He also said that he had given his suggestion that the Lingayats should not get divided and leave the fold of Hindu community, because of his affection for the former.

“I do not want any division within the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community or in the Hindu community,” he said.

Another reason for giving the suggestion was because of the trust and cordial relations he had with the seers of the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community. “Nobody should misunderstand my suggestion,” he said.

Lingayats have come one step closer to the Creator and we must congratulate them. One day they all realise the True God, May God guide them to the Right Path.

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
