[Advaita-l] Mayavada Darpanam

[Venkatesh Murthy]

Namaste

I agree with RV. The Sringeri and other Math are friendly with Muslims. But
Muslims are hell bent on increasing the population of Muslims by having
four wives and many children with no birth control. The Sringeri Swamiji is
not able to solve the shortage of Brides for Vaidika Brahmin Bridegrooms.At
the same time he is happy to use gifts from Muslims and Muslim Kings. Why
he is not asking in his speeches to give daughters in marriage to Vaidikas.
Is it not his duty to protect Vaidika Dharma and make it to continue for
ever? If Vaidikas dont get wives they can not have boys to learn Vedas.

I know one Madhva Swamiji has asked fathers to give daughters to Vaidikas
to protect Vaidika Dharma.
