The pre requisite for worshipping a Deity through mantra and yantra is initiation or deeksha.

Some Sampradaya believe that this should be restricted based on birth, while in others it is open to all.

"sarvavarnadhikarasca narinam yogya eva ca"

Hindu rituals continue at Sultanghari in Delhi even though invaders converted it into an Islamic mausoleum.

We should never abandon our Heritage and our Gods.

The pujas that happened at Odappallam Kirata Shiva Parvati temple in Wayanad on Mahashivratri.

The Hindu rituals and worship are a way to assimilate the Shiva tattva which is very predominant on this day.

Is Hindu society genuinely interested and willing to take the risks in reclaiming the temples built by our ancestors?

If yes try to do something in your locality, or else support those who are doing this.

Buddhism in India got extinct under the sword of Islamic invaders.

Its abandoned monasteries, destroyed stupas and chaityas act as a reminder of what will happen to our Dharma if we don't defeat Islamic fundamentalists and reclaim our temples.

Jainism in India bore the brunt of Islamic invasion whereby Jain temples were destroyed, captured and converted into Masjids.

It survived as some Jain monks like Jina Prabhasuri reached deals with Islamic invaders to the detriment of Hindu community.

Jain Acharya Ratna Prabh Suri claimed to have defeated Hindu Goddess Chamunda and forced her to accept vegetables.

Jain monks stopped the animal sacrifices at Goddess Chamunda temple at Osiyan, Rajasthan and changed the temple name to Sachiya Mata temple

As per Kshetra Tantra it is not possible to change the nature of the Deity by altering the original mode of worship and rituals. What happens in such cases is that the worship for a particular Deity is discontinued and alternate Deity is installed. People continue to worship at the temple not aware of the deception.

The same is likely to have happened at Chamunda temple at Osiyan Rajasthan which in case the worship of Goddess Chamunda should be restarted after reclaiming Her temple.

Another ancient Hindu temple has been demolished by

Destruction of our ancient Heritage monuments will only increase if this madness in name of development is not stopped.
