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...

New Delhi, Feb 13: Two SpiceJet pilots have been suspended today for an improper landing at Mangalore Airport which damaged three runway edge lights. The incident took place on October 31 last year when the private carrier's Boeing 737 aircraft was returning from Dubai.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) suspended the licenses of the pilots for four-and-half months from the date of the incident.

DGCA had issued a show cause notice to the Pilot in Command and the First Officer demanding explanation of the "lapses" and found their replies unsatisfactory, the aviation watchdog said in a statement.

Investigation revealed that the touchdown was improper as it deviated to the the left on the runway in turn damaging three runway edge lights.
