Uppinangady, Sept 8: “We need not to do anything to ‘protect’ our religion. Instead, if we tread the religious path, the religion itself will protect us,” said Esha Vittaladas Swami, the chief pontiff of Kemaru Sandeepani Sadhana Ashrama.

He was speaking at the goodwill programme to mark the launching ceremony of the K M Shafi Memorial Public Library and Shanti Centre established by the local unit of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind (JIH) at Uppinangdy on Friday (Sept 7).

He said that one should first correct himself by adopting religious values and doing noble works rather than resorting to ignoble actions in the name of protecting religion.

“Serving the needy and poor is a religious act. Violence and conflicts are not propagated by religion. But, one has to gain proper knowledge to realize this fact,” he said hoping that the newly launched library may do the work of providing useful knowledge to the local people. 

Dr Abdul Majeed, a Mangaluru based surgeon and honorary president of Ayisha Educational Trust, said that reading good books will help us build a peaceful society and achieve unity in diversity.

Mohammed Kunhi, Manager of Shanti Prakashana, Divakar Acharya, President of Uppinangady Rotary Club, Abdussalam U of JIH, Aravind Chokkadi, Kannada writer and Fr Abel Lobo spoke on the occasion. 

Ameen Ahsan Sayeed of JIH welcomed. Abdul Haseeb recited Quranic verses in the beginning. Jaleel Mukri compered the programme. Dr Raghu, Syndicate Member, Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences was present among others.

All religion you specified above will go to hell fire...only religion excepted in front of GOD is ISLAM..

Christianity worship Phophet Issa, which is ok in one point which will reduce there punishment in hell, above that they woship idol of prophet which is major sin as per GOD

Hinduism worship many stone and even di@k (linga) as well as animal shit. one of the dirtiest and worst religion in front of GOD

Buddhism & Sikhism they too worship idol which is major sin in front of GOD

Jainism biggest worst culture they even roam naked in front of public..worst religion in front of GOD.

 

ISLAM is the one and only pure religion...only bow down to ALLAH the unseen god.he is the master of universe...No idol no foolish culture.

 

dont say islam spread terrorism, the biggest terriorst in the world is America but no one say christen terrorist...you know why..they wear black suit & tie & bomb innocent people country and kill them (one of the cowards act of mordern soldier) if some one fought back with old rated rifle wearing kudtha & paijam with beard in his face then they called them as terror..

Well said swamiji. Follow any peaceful religion like Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism. But if people follow a religion which offers you 4+72 for killing a kaafir, then the world be destroyed!

Swamijis like Kemaru should be a bit careful while speaking the truth. Shiroor seer had to lose his life after exposing other swamijis.

Bengaluru, Jun 22: Concerned over the increase in COVID-19 cases in the city, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Monday directed officials to implement lockdown measures strictly in the clusters which have reported more infections.

Yediyurappa held a meeting with Ministers and senior officials regarding containing COVID-19 in Bengaluru and said it can be achieved only if preventive measures are implemented strictly and asked the officials to work in this direction.

"Lockdown shall be implemented strictly in the clusters which reported more cases, especially, K.R. Market and surrounding areas such as Siddapura, VV Puram, Kalasipalya etc. It was decided to seal the adjoining streets, where the cases are reported, a release from the Chief Minister's office said. Stringent action would be taken against those who violate quarantine norms and FIR would be filed if necessary, it said.

Till Sunday evening, the state capital has reported 1,272 cases of COVID-19, including 64 deaths and 411 discharges. On Sunday, as many as 196 fresh cases were recorded. Officers were directed to ensure hygiene and provide other basic amenities to the people who were quarantined in the social welfare department's hostels and other government institutions.

"COVID-19 should be contained without affecting the economic activities in Bengaluru, which resumed recently," the Chief Minister said.

Noting that booth-level officers and volunteers were working to trace contacts and monitor quarantined persons, he said the COVID war room shall have real-time information on the availability of beds in various designated hospitals and facilitate treatment to the infected without loss of time.

A bulletin from the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), the city civic body, said there were 298 active containment zones in the city. BBMP Commissioner B H Anil Kumar along with the Chamarajpet Congress MLA B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan visited a few slum areas in the city to take stock of the COVID-19 situation, officials said.

Bengaluru, Jul 31: Gyms in Bengaluru carried out sanitation work on Thursday following the Centre's nod to reopen gyms from August 5, after several weeks of COVID-induced lockdowns.

"We are taking all the precautionary measures prescribed by the government and will follow the guidelines very strictly. A thermal scanner, oximeter and hand sanitizers have been placed at the entrance of the gym. 

We request all other gym owners also to follow the guidelines strictly to keep their members safe and healthy," said Prasad Kumar, a gym owner in Bangalore.

He added, "The last few months have been very difficult for us gym owners and fitness instructors. We are very grateful to the government for allowing us to re-open. 

We are going to be very cautious when we open. Even before this COVID-19 pandemic, we used to sanitise all the equipment before and after every use so hopefully, this won't be too difficult for us. We are getting rid of the air conditioners to allow cross ventilation and open the space a little more."

According to Chandu Gowda, an actor and frequenter of the gym, working out at home was not the same as working out in the gym with the proper equipment.

"I'm very glad that I get to come back and work out as I used to before this lockdown. For an actor, working out is extremely important, not just for my physical health but also mental health. 

Doing exercises at home is never as good as exercising in a space dedicated to one purpose. I hope other members of the gym follow the rules and regulations religiously," Gowda said.
