LORD MANJUNATH OF DHARMASTHALA

The Heggade then prayed to him to consecrete the linga again according to Hindu agamas for the benefit of pure, orthodox religonists also. What a noble gesture! How much catholocity!! Which 'ISM' emulates it and when!!! He did with elaborate ritualistic prayer services lasting for days. He was given several presents and honoured highly. He then renamed the kshetra into Dharmasthala. Heggade's humanism is indeed unparalleled. In fine, he has no peers. May be due to the divine power of that Pravakta, or due to the auspiciousness of that moment, the temple grew enormously undreamt of by any. True to its new name, it is not only administering justice, but has taken up many charitable activities to helping countless of the deserving persons placed at the lowest rung of the ladder of society. And is passing for a great kshetra - a place where bounty knows no bounds.
