Ballari, Jan 25: Progressive thinker and religious guru, Veerabhadra Channamalla Swami, who is also the chief of the Nidumamidi Mutt has openly stated that Lord Rama and Seetha used to consume beef.
Cow meat was consumed at the time of yagnas too, the pontiff said, adding that there was reference to it in the Valmiki Ramayana also.
The RSS and BJP have forgotten this and are trying to impose a cultural imperialism on the country, which is a democracy, he said.
“The Sangh Parivar says all Hindus are one. But it is the Hindus who discriminate against the 'untouchable' communities,” lamented the seer.

Vatican rejects second appeal of Kerala nun against her expulsion from congregation
News Network
March 2,2020
Kochi, Mar 2: The Vatican has rejected the second appeal by Sister Lucy Kalappura -- one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal -- against her expulsion from Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC).
In her plea, she had demanded that her version be heard and her expulsion from FCC revoked.
She was expelled from FCC for participating in public protests demanding the arrest of Franco Mulakkal in the nun rape case.
''I got a letter from Vatican which says my appeal has been rejected. But the rest of the letter is written in the Latin language. So after I understand it, I will respond," Sister Lucy told news agency.
''The authorities are contemptuous of those who make such complaints. That is why the letter is written in Latin. Sister Lucy would continue her legal fight in the courts,'' said George Moolechalil, who has been authorised by Sister Lucy to communicate with the media on her behalf.
A petition of Sister Lucy is still pending at Mananthavady Munsif Court at Wayanad that demands that she should not be expelled from the convent where she is staying.

Religious issues should be resolved within the guidelines of devine laws.
Unfortunately the Chrisitianity is no more in its originality.
The holy bible has been systematically abused and edited to the benefits of rulers.
The book has been contaminated with lots of editions.
People should search for truth and follow it.
Example, the religion never told to remain unmarried for priests or nuns.
They go against its teaching inveting their own idea against God's teaching.
Vatican is a corporate person.

Belur mutt to allow in devotees from June 15
News Network
June 4,2020
Jun 4: Belur Mutt, the global headquarters of Ramakrishna Mutt and Ramakrishna Mission, has decided to throw open its gates to the devotees from June 15 after putting in place all safety measures required to contain the spread of COVID-19.
The gates of the sprawling premises of the mutt set up by Swami Vivekananada at Belur near here was closed since the lockdown was announced in March by the Centre. The Mutt has devotees from across the globe.
The secretary of Belur Mutt Ramakrishna Mutt and Ramakrishna Mission, Swami Suvirananda said in a statement that as the easing down of lockdown measures announced by the Centre and the state did not indicate the threat caused by COVID-19 pandemic is over, the authorities thought it prudent to put in place all the measures required before opening the gates of the Mutt and all RKM centres in the country for the scores of devotees.
The statement was issued on June 1, the day religious places of worship were thrown open by the West Bengal government.
"We had to think about both aspects - the issue of public health and also the wish of our devotees for having a darshan of the shrines of Swami Vivekananda, Sri Sarada Maa and Ramamrishna Paramahansa. But we believe spirituality and sceintific temparament must go hand in hand," he told reporters on Thursday.
"Therefore it is imperative for us to consult experts and put in place adequate arrangement and infrastructure" before opening the (Belur Mutt) gates," he said.
The senior monk said the timing of the opening and closure of the shrine and all other details conforming the health protocol and guidelines will be announced before opening date.
The Mutt complex had become totally out of bound for visitors from March 24 when the lockdown was clamped. There was restricted entry to it since May 16.

EVEN BJP AND RSS PEOPLE EAT BEEF SECRETLY. I can name them
BJP and sangh parivar will not digest this truth and will protest. Hegde/Yoodiyoorappa may call for karnataka bandh.
Dear Swamiji, Thank you for your statement. But we knew it while going through Hindu scriptures. And as Abu Muhammad said, you are talking about the good person RAAM. But BJP is talking about vote bank RAM or could be about Computer RAM (Random Access Memory)

I know one thing. Seer told one fact that is RSS and BJP trying to impose cultural imperialismin India
