The Sanskrut meaning of temple is Devalaya
The Sanskrut meaning of temple is Devalaya, which means the abode of deities.
Basically all our temples were the centres to impart knowledge about Dharma.
But today, while the Muslims teach Quran in the mosque and Christians teach Bible in church, the Hindu temples have just been reduced to being a centre for ritualistic practices like offering ‘dhoopam’, ‘deepam’, ‘gandham’, ‘pushpam’ and ‘naivedyam’!
For the resurgence of Hindu Dharma, we need to re-establish the main objective of temples once again!-Tanuja Thakur
