Sullia: Seer of Samputa Shri Narasimha Swamy Mutt of Subramanya, Shree Vidyaprasannatheertha Swamiji began a fast from Saturday, October 13^th against the accusations by certain individuals against the functioning of the Mutt.

The seer said that this fast is not against anyone. Just because of the mental agony. He further said that his intention is that the relations between the Subramanya temple and the Mutt should be cordial.

“There is a Goshala in the Mutt. We used to procure the water that was flowing naturally from the hill for the Goshala. Recently, some people have made this stop. Due to this we are unable to provide water to the cows. It is causing problems for our rituals also,” said the seer.

“Though we are giving all co-operation to the development of the road of the temple, false propaganda against us is still continuing. Certain areas that were de-notified earlier have been stayed by the court and the stay is still not taken off. If a joint application is put to mark the areas, we will immediately provide such places for the development of the road to the Kukke Subramanya temple,” explained the seer.

Speaking about the accusations by certain individuals against the functioning of the Mutt, the seer said, “Certain individuals accused against the services that are offered in the Mutt including the ‘Sarpasanskara’. The administration committee of the Subramanya temple had clarified that the temple does not have any Mutt or Mandir controlled by it. Even after all these clarifications, certain devotees who are for the Mutt and temple had registered cases against each other in the police station.”

Speaking about the Subramanya Seer’s fast, seer of Pejawar Mutt, Shree Vishweshateertha Swamiji said, “I am greatly concerned as I came to know that Sree Vidyaprasannatheertha Swamiji has resorted to fasting due to the harassment meted out towards the Subramanya Mutt. As soon as the Navarathri celebrations get over, I will go to Subramanya and contact al the concerned and try to resolve the matter.”
