Supreme Court hears Kanchi Shankaracharya case
Tuesday December 4 2007 00:00 IST
Prabhakar Rao Voruganti [ newindpress.com ]

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Monday posted for final disposal the
petition filed by Jayendra Saraswathi, Sankaracharya of Kanchi,
seeking change of public prosecutor in the Sankararaman murder case,
to the last week of January on a non-miscellaneous day, i.e., either on a Tuesday, Wednesday or a Thursday.

A Bench comprising Justice G P Mathur and Justice P Sathasivam passed the orders in this regard after hearing the submissions of senior counsel Fali Nariman for the petitioner and Altaf Ahmed and V G Pragasam for the State of Tamil Nadu.

The question is when a matter is transferred from State A to State B, anybody can be appointed as a public prosecutor, Nariman told the Bench referring to the case of Sankararaman murder in which Sankaracharya is one of the accused and which was transferred from Tamil Nadu to Puducherry. At this the Bench remarked, "You are delaying (the proceedings of the case). "We are not", said Nariman.

After Nariman’s submissions, the Bench noted that there are many instances where only local public prosecutors were appointed after such transfers.

In fact, even in the Best Bakery case also (of Gujarat), a local public prosecutor was appointed (in Maharashtra), the Bench remarked. At this stage, the Bench directed posting of the case for final disposal in the last week of January to be heard on merits.

The cow is your mother

"The cow is your mother" - Lord Krishna in Bhagavatham

" You drink the milk of the cow. So she becomes your mother."says
Lord Krishna in Bhagavatham.

With Lord Krishna's grace and the blessings of our Acharyas
Sri Jayam Goshala located in Vanathirajapuram P.O in Tamil Nadu has been performing yeomen service
in running a Goshala in a commendable manner. It has been run by true animal lovers who not only look after the animals in their custody but also take great pains to rescue cows which might have landed in the slaughter house.

Please visit their website www.jayamgoshala.com to get more details about how you can support their noble efforts.

It is the directive of His Holiness Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal that every devotee of Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam must set aside a small portion of his/her monthly earnings towards Gosamrakshanam. Amounts thus collected should go towards supporting such Goshalas. His Holiness also directs that children should be initiated in this thought at a young age. They must be encouraged to visit nearby Goshalas, feed the cows. They must start saving from their pocket money to donate to Goshalas.

We intend to put together a master directory of all the Goshalas in the country. Devotees may also send us information about Goshalas around India which are managed well. Also send us information about Goshalas which might need support. Please address all mail to gosamrakshanam@kanchi-sathya.org

Vyasa Pooja Mandapam

Sri Mahaperiyavaal has explained in great detail Chaaturmasyam for Sanyasins and the importance of Vyasa Pooja. (Click here to read the full speech, courtesy kamakoti.org). The picture shows our Acharyas performing the Vyasa Pooja in Tirupathi. We also see the Vyasa Pooja Mandapam on which the Guru Parampara is worshipped. This Mandapam is being freshly made as per the directive of Sri Periyavaal Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal. The wood work for the mandapam is finished and the silver work is about to start.

To complete the silver work 65 kgs of silver are needed. It is the desire of the Acharya that 65 families must undertake this task together by donating Rs 20,000 towards 1 kg of silver.

Bhiksha vandanam would be performed for all those families (who contribute), on Vyasa pooja day (july 28, 2007 at kanchipuram). It is desired that they attend the Vyasa Pooja with all members of their families. However in case they are unable to do so, bhiksha vandanam shall be performed on their behlaf and the prasadam sent to them.

So while sending in the contriobution, please dont forget to inform the names/nakshatram of each and every member of your families along with your gothram."
