    THE SALE OF HUMAN HAIR??? I don't know what that really means but it's fetches Rs.220 Crore
    THROUGH THE SALE OF DARSANAM TICKETS Rs.190 Crore??? there should be no sale of DARSANAM tickets as it should be free entry for all.
    THROUGH THE SALE OF PRASADAM Rs.130 Crore??? ...there should be no sale of Prasadam as it should be free for all
    FOR RENTALS Rs.108 Crore ???... Don't really know what it means .

    CONCLUSION : THEY ARE REALLY BASTARDS AS THEY HAVE TURNED THIS TEMPLE INTO BIG BUSINESS

  • Here in UK .. The Hare Krishna Temple The Manor which is in Watford is one of their main centres outside India and THE STAFF THERE GET WAGES AND HAVE PROPERTIES AND EXPENSIVE CARS...likewise the SOHO STREET HARE KRISHNA TEMPLE off Oxford Street Staff earn wages and the President lives in a nice property in zone one ...YET THESE BASTARDS KEEP ASKING FOR DONATIONS ...yet they preach in simple living high thinking but practice high living and simple thinking. If anyone donates a good amount it goes to ISKCON Headquarters where they decide where it will be spent. One of their maharaj was caught spending the donation money on the Stock Exchange and loosing it all.
    Child abuse, false gurus, devotees caught taking drugs in their drums at Heathrow Airport are just some cases and now devotees picking high wages ...all in the name of Krishna ...THIS IS LIKE THE END TIMES
  • Most of this accumulated wealth should go to poor in India till no one is left hungry, has simple clothes to wear and an adequate shelter.
  • I go to the Temples sometimes only as the vibes and frequencies of the people there are mostly low
  • All these places of worship have become mainly business and politics ...we need to go back and have temples like in the time of Lumeria and Atlantis that were for HEALING ONLY....like Crystal Temples.
    What is going on in the world is all wrong ...greed, power and control in places of worship.
    Also Child abuse has been quiet common like in the Vatican and Hare Krishnas Temples.
    • Yes, the Pope always talks about "helping the poor" and he has a solid gold toilet seat.

      • Solid Gold Toilet Seat ...The Bastard
    • Yes, and doctors with their Hippocratic oath must swear they will take no money for their services.

  • The payment of salaries and wages to about 9,000 staff was expected to be a major outgo of about Rs.400 crore. Another Rs.155 crore crore projected as outsourcing expenses.
    NOBODY SHOULD GET SALARIES AND WAGES... IT SHOULD BE VOLUNTARY BASIS ONLY.
    Main staff like the priests should get food, clothing and a simple place to stay but no wages...THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO EVEN TOUCH MONEY
