WHO DID IT ? WHAT A SHAME FOR 2 LEGS !!!!!

Look at the condition of this mental lady who have no one !! She is pregnant by some anti social element in the land of enlightenment the great Bodhgaya, Bihar, India. Who is going to look after the coming babe ? What will be the condition of that new born babe ? The Medical Termination of Pregnancy ( MTP ) Act 1975 does allow for abortion with condition to a lady but from the out look of Indian culture it is not permitted. Holy Scripture does not allow it too.

I beg to our District Magistrate Of Gaya Smt. Bandana Ji to help this lady but I have a big question within self that I the Arup Bramhachari ( Swami Ji ) filed FIR for her mis-deeds, a Legal Notice and taking her to supreme court soon so how she can listen my words ??? Let us all pray for this lady.

19-05-2012 .. Today i came to know that the lady gave birth of a cute boy yesterday. The bodhgaya health centre one way kick out the lady from hospital in this condition ….. not even they take care of this mad lady for 24 hours. I search a lot and spoke to the authority and lastly found that a nurse from Magadh Medical Collage Madam Sujata Sarkar ( Phone No. 9709445994 ) is taking care of the babe. The babe is having high fever.  I wrote a letter to DM gaya again( dated 19-05-2012 and 20-05-2012 ).

No help from the District Magistrate of gaya even when she is a lady. Where is that lady even i don’t know. No one helps this mad lady. Sorry to say no respect for a mad people in my country. So many news channels we have in India but no one came forward to help this lady and lastly a kind boy from media cameforward and shoot out full episode to get help. let us pray for the lady and child.

The Left photo is the photo of Mad lady and the right photo is the new parents of the babe.

                   

REPORT OF THE MAGADH DIVISION COMMISSIONER TO COURT

REPORT OF THE MAGADH DIVISION COMMISSIONER

CONFIDENTIAL                 Letter No. 422 / C      Dated 1.12.2007

SEALD COVER

To

The Chief Judicial Magistrate

Gaya.

Reference :-   Your letter No. 198 / 27.08.2007 and 2329 / 16.10.2007 dated appertaining to complaint case no. 850 / 2007 Arup Bramhachari Vs Jitendra Srivastav & others to investigate and report relating to the matter in issue.

Sub:- Enquiry report of the matter under reference.

Sir, I have personally enquired on 5.11.2007 and probed about the correctness of the complaint under reference and found the truth as follows :-

1.   It is true that the Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee ( B.T.M.C ) is entrusted with the management and control of Bodhgaya Main Temple, Temple land and the properties appertaining thereto under the Bodhgya Temple Act and as such B.T.M.C has absolute control over the same and no one can do any thing the same without knowledge and permission of B.T.M.C

2.   The persons arrayed as accused in the complaint case under reference are the members and authorities of B.T.M.C

3.   The Great Holy Pipal Tree is of immense archaeological, religious, national, international and social importance and among others the same has also been declared as “ World Heritage ” by the “ UNESCO”. Hence, the great Pipal tree is public property.

4.   On enquiry it transpired to me by the witnesses viz. Deepak Malaker and Ajay Paswan that on 10. 07. 2007 the accused no. 3 Bhante BodhiPal, ordered Sri Deepak Malaker, working as employee of B.T.M.C at that time, to cut down some cardinal parts of the great Pipal tree and in obedience of the dictation of his master the said Sri Deepak Malaker cut down the same in presence of the accused no. 4 Sri Bhajju Yadav. After getting cut down some substantial parts of the great Pipal tree, the said accused Bhante Bodhipal ordered the said Sri Deepak Malaker to carry the same to his house i.e B.T.M.C compound area and accordingly Sri Deepak Malaker carried the cut down piece of the great Pipal Tree to the house i.e B.T.M.C compound area of the said accused Bhante BodhiPal.

5.   I have seen the Cut Off portion of the great Pipal Tree personally and it appeared to me that the cuttings are about 2 years old from now. The “ Forest Research Institute ” of Dehradun also conformed about the cutting down the Holy Pipal Tree.

6.   However, the main control over the “Temple’s ” properties and the great Pipal Tree has been of the accused no. 2 to 4 as they have / had direct links with the day to day affairs of the same. The accused no. 1, being merely an Ex – Officio Chairman of B.T.M.C is honoured with only ornamental post to whom no direct liability should be charged.

7.   At the time of enquiry I also found that the great Pipal Tree leaves collected by their special staff at the time of spring and then sold it to the special friends by the culprits through their high voltage technique. Not only that there are lot of monetary scandal done by the accused no. 2 and 3 which must be checked by the special audit and judicial enquiry may be conducted to know  the nefarious activities going on in the Temple area and B.T.M.C.

8.   Hence, in conclusion, I myself find that the accused no.2 Dr. kalicharan Yadav, 3. Bhante BodhiPal, 4. Bhajju Yadav ( P.R.O ) are involved in some nefarious activities like cutting the branches of the great Pipal Tree, not maintaining any log book which is mandatory to touch the great Pipal Tree. There are no accounts for the leaves they take out from the Tree or are collected. Cutting of branches of the great Pipal Tree have been done casually which even a common man would have not been down it. These people exploiting the “ Temple Area ” and the properties of the B.T.M.C to gain their personal advantages which is related to monetary affairs and a high powered team of expert must investigate the personal wealth of accused no. 2 to 4. Therefore the complaint case under reference is true and correct against no. 2 to 4 and hence accordingly apt and suitable legal action should be taken against all of them.

IMPORTANCE OF BODHI TREE

BY LINDA NOBLE, USA

Abstract

“……. In a world of growing state and gang violence with western militarism ( lead by an egotistical, paranoid and short sighted leader of the USA ) against a ” war on terror ” which can not be won ( and only produces suffering  for millions of innocent non-combatants ), wisdom, compassion and peaceful diplomacy is the only rational and practical way to save future generations of this world.

A young Indian aesthetic started the peaceful inner revolution of the human mind, ( which is a counter  force to militarism and violence ) 2500 years ago when he became enlightened under  a simple  Bodhi Tree. The teaching of the Buddha are very applicable today and the Bodhi Tree is  ” THE  PEACE  SYMBOL ” of out changing world,  for now  and the future. Since Indian civilization is renound for philosophy, religious  and cultural diversity,  and is aloe the largest demarcation nation in Asia, India now has the moral obligation to be the custodian of the tree for all people of the world.

Now in our age of globalisation, the Buddhist philosophy of interdependence and the doctrine of emptiness are even more  visible  and applicable. Understanding this ancient Indian philosophy is not only gaining popularity but is being accepted by the greatest of political, scientific mind of our time. With His Holiness the Dalai Lama, a Nobel Peace  Prize Laurent and refugee who is eternally grateful to India, as a world representative for Indian Buddhist Philosophy and proponent of Mahatma Gandhi’s peaceful  politics and means, India has such a fantastic opportunity to become a strong voice in the world stage of peacemaking . And the symbol for world peace is the Bodhi Tree. Saving the tree is a statement that says peace is not only possible but absolutely necessary in a fast changing and desirous world. Save the symbol of Ancient Indian Philosophy that can help the world find answers on the path to peace. ….. ”

FIRST SCIENTIST REPORT OF HOLY BODHI TREE

                                           BY

DEHRADUN FOREST RESEARCH INSTITUTE

Observations on The Bodhivrikhsa ( Ficus Religiosa ) at Bodhgaya

As requested by the District Magistrate, Gaya a team from Forest Research Institute, Dehradun comprising following scientists visited the Bodhgaya Temple on 28^th June 2007 :

1.            Dr. N.S.K. Harsh, Tree Pathologist

2.            Dr. Subhash Nautiyal, Tree Physiolgist

3.            Shir Ram Lal, Wood Scientist

Observations

The revered tree Bodhivrikhsa ( Ficus religiousa ), the papal tree was closely examined and inspected by the team and following observations are made.

1.   The tree is growing normally but major growth is towards one side only while on the other side is temple structure. The branches were spreading towards one side away from the temple.

2.   Just at the base of the tree is the seat of enlightenment ( Bajresan ) on one side towards  the temple.

3.   Around the base of the tree the soil was open, upto 3meters in rectangular shape.

4.   There were dead and dying branches present on the tree. Few branches stubs and wounds of previous cuts were also observed.

5.   The main tree is surrounded by a small-cemented wall and metallic grill.

6.   The small cemented wall surrounding the tree has now been pierced by the roots and has cracked.

7.   Some of the new roots and bark at the base were dying. Some of the roots were exposed on the moil surface.

8.   The stem, bark and exposed wounds were painted with Bordeaux ( copper sulphate, lime and water ) paste as told by Dr. A.K. Singh, Scientist from Rajendra Agriculture University, Patna.

9.   The branches were supported by iron pillars used as props.

10.  Two open surfaces were being used for providing irrigation to the tree outside the main structure. At present they appeared to be having excess water.

11.  Mealy bug attack was also observed on one of the twigs. It was told that there is regular attack of mealy bugs on this and other papal trees in the campus

12.  One dead and decaying branch stub was present near the base ( above 1.5 meters approx. ) on the southwest side, which on tapping gave a hollow sound towards the basal end of the branch suggesting progress of heart rot disease  ( hollowness ). Isolation were made from the decaying part of the stub for associated fungi and other micro-organisms.

13.  Test for hollowness was also conducted all around the main stem by tapping for sound echoes, which reveled absence of heart rot in the trunk at present.

14.  The cut portion of the branch, which has given rise to the present controversy, was closely inspected. The cut branch is nearly 20feet above the ground. On examination the cut end revealed following features :-

a.   Radial as well as longitudinal cracks on the cut surface.

b.   Absence of bark up to 3 feet from the top towards the trunk

c.   Bleached of advance decay of white fibrous rot type.

d.   Bordeaux paste was also applied on the cut end earlier as informed by Dr. A.K. Singh.

e.   The coppice shoots have come out from the lower end where bark was present.

15.  Two other trees of pipal, which were nearby to the Bodhivriksha were also examined. Both the tree showing good vigorous healthy growth, even better then Bodhivriksha. It was informed that during May this year there was premature leaf full of new leaves on the Bodhivriksha, which may be due to some acute physiological stresses affecting the tree. The papal tree on the left of the Bodhivriksha has entrapped the broken cemented wall structure made earlier for boundary by the growing roots of the tree. The tree on the right of the Bodhivriksha was seen wrapped with a yellow cloth around its trunk, which when removed showed termite and fungal attack on the bark of the tree.

16.  The metallic props created for the support of the branches were noticed causing injury to the bark and tissue, which can be seen as dropping of latex on the props.

17.  There was lighting arrangement of the Bodhivriksha in the night. The intensity of the light and heat generated to the nearby branches by the lamp shades, reflectors and bulbs installed may be causing damage to the tree.

18.  No other vegetation was noticed growing below the Bodhivriksha tree.

19.  The moisture content was observed on various parts of the tree for examination of the status of stress. The data is being analyzed.

20.  The samples of wood, bark, leaves and soil were collected for laboratory studies

Inferences drawn about Bodhivriksha

It can be suggested that the Bodhivriksha has recently undergone some form of stress, which was being reflected by the some what scanty and light green leaves in the canopy and damaged roots and bark, as compared to the other two pipal trees growing nearby. The possible reasons for the stress could be :

a.   The light green colour of the leaves may be due to their being new flush and as the leaves are tender.

b.   Copper toxicity due to repeated application of Bordeaux paste on the stem and branches as informed.

c.   Excess moisture in the soil causing asphyxiation ( suffocation ) of the roots as observed in the near by – irrigated areas.

d.   Heat injury due to reflection of solar radiation from the temple structure, which is quite close to the tree.

e.   High intensity electric lights causing hindrance to the respiration process in the night.

f.   The soil was devoid of any other vegetation suggesting an unfavorable environment for the growth of plants, may be due to some heavy metal toxicity.

g.   Soil compaction due to trampling under human feet.

h.   It appears that aging of the tree is slowing down the physiological processes.

Inferences drawn about the cut branch under reference

The stump of the branch was carefully and erratically examined visually and it appears that the cut is more than three years old. The basis of this prediction is explained below.

1.   When a cut or wound is made on a live tree, the sap comes out which is rich in carbohydrates; the sap turns brownish due to the exposure to light and oxygen imparting darker colour to the exposed surface.

2.   The exposed wound is colonized by micro-organisms like bacteria and yeasts.

3.   The exposed surface develop callus and new shoots emerge below the cut.

4.   Weathering of the exposed surface takes place over the time giving bleached appearance to the exposed surface.

5.   Decay fungi set in causing rotting of wood on the dead surface, which may extend to the heartwood establishing heart rot, which gradually create hollowness. The fruiting bodies of the decay fungi then appear on the exposed surface.

6.   The whole processes may take time well over one year but in drier localities with higher temperature this period may be even more than that.

7.   The branch under reference exhibited bleached appearance and decay suggesting it was exposed ( cut ) more than three years ago.

8.   The absence of callus formation, debarking, absence of fruiting bodies of fungi and presence of radial and longitudinal cracks can be attribute to the heat generated by an electric lamp ( top being metallic ) present just below the cut branch which was lighted in the nights. The heat generated gradually causing seasoning ( drying ) of wood revealed as radial and longitudinal cracks on the exposed surface and splitting and falling of bark. The lamp post was moved after March 2006. Moreover, the treatment with Bordeaux paste had also attributed to the debarking, absence of callus and fungal fruiting bodies.

9.   These observations were also corroborated by the photographs provided by the committee, showing date as November 2004 and March 2006 in banners present in the photographs. The cut branch is visible well above the lamppost in these photographs thus confirming the inferences drawn by our study.

10.   The Institute does not have any methodology to precisely determine and predict the time and period of cutting of a tree or its branch, therefore, the predictions made in the present study are suggestive. 

Immediate Steps to be taken for restoration of health for the Bodhivirksha

The declining health of the Bodhivriksha can be restore by adopting following measure :-

1.   The application of Bordeaux paste should be immediately stopped

2.   Excess water in the areas meant for irrigating the tree should be regulated.

3.   The cemented wall near the base should be removed. Care should be taken not to damage the roots underneath it.

4.   The exposed roots should be covered with soil.

5.   Dead branches to be pruned carefully. Small branches may be flush cut initially, but the weight of the branch should be supported until it is completely severed to avoid tearing of the bark below the wound.

6.   The exposed wounds and cut ends should be given dressing with 1 % Bayleton ( Tridemefon ) in linseed oil with a paintbrush to cheek the infection and spread by decay fungi.

7.   Any operation being done for the care and maintenance of the tree should be displayed at a proper place to inform people and for transparency to avoid any controversy.

8.   Between the props and branches thick packing of polyurethane foam should be inserted for cushioning and avoid injury the bark and tissues.

9.   For the management of infestation by mealy bug, spray with 0.02 % Dimethoate should be done on the affected branches with few drops of liquid soap ( shampoo ) as sticker. As the females of the insect crawl from ground on the stern, sticky bands about one meter above ground would cheek their climbing up.

10.  The people should be stopped from going near the tree to avoid soil compaction by trampling.

11.  The metal halide lamps and other lights, which are closed to the tree should be removed. If light of the tree is necessary, it should be done from a distance with low intensity bulbs, preferably focusing from ground fixtures.

12.  The entrapped cement wall piece by the roots of other pipal tree should be carefully removed without damaging the roots.

13.  Wrapping of trees with cloths should be avoided.

14.  Burning of oil lamps and incense sticks should not be allowed to avoid injury to the roots and stem of the trees.

15.  The wooden support and frame around one of the bells ( 2550 kg ) has started showing weathering and decay and needs preservative treatment to be provided by FRI, Dehradun.

Future Course of Action

A memorandum of understanding would be drawn out between the Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee, Bodhgaya and Forest Research Institute, Dehradun for future management and upkeep of the Bodhivriksha in particular and other trees in the campus in general, besides beautification of the campus with suitable plant species. A suitable consultancy project would be developed by Forest Research Institute, Dehradun for this purpose.

WASHINGTON POST REPORT

SCANDAL GNAWS AT BUDDHA’S HOLY TREE IN INDIA

By Simon Denver, Reuters, February 3, 2008

DEATH THREATS

Its central stupa rising 187 feet above the ground where Siddhartha Gautama is said to have become the “Awakened One,” the temple is thought to have been built 1,500 years ago and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002. Inside, in front of a giant golden statue of Buddha, pilgrims from Japan, Sri Lanka, China, Thailand and the West kneel and chant. Outside, others collect fallen leaves from the giant tree and others growing in the temple courtyard.

Clad in white robes, the barefoot and bearded Brahmachari excitedly points out the spot where the branch was chopped off, as well as empty niches around the temple grounds where he says statuettes of Buddha stood until recently.

“They sent the branch to Thailand, and sold it for 6 crore (60 million) rupees ($1.5 million),” he said, adding he had been beaten up twice and had received several death threats since starting his campaign.

The government, he said, was simply not interested. “Nobody is listening. I am fed up of writing letters.” But he is not alone in his anger, joined by Buddhist priests running many of the other temples and monasteries which have sprung up in Bodh Gaya.

Although its accounts are audited, the priests complain the temple does nothing to support local schools and hospitals, despite having a substantial income. “Money is coming in, but where the money is going nobody knows,” said Bhante Pragyadeep, treasurer of the Buddhist Monks Association of India.

District magistrate Jitendra Srivastava has been running the temple committee since the scandal surfaced and the last committee’s term expired. “All secretaries have been embroiled in controversy,” he said. “It is very unfortunate.” Significant amounts of money had been spent “beautifying the temple and giving it world-class facilities,” he said, and no allegations of corruption had surfaced since he took over.

While the charge of cutting a branch was now sub judice, allegations of deeper wrongdoing had not been substantiated. “A lot of people say this but I have no credible evidence. It remains to be seen if these people have taken this money.” Meanwhile, many Buddhist priests say they, and not Hindus, should be running one of the holiest sites in their religion.

But magistrate Srivastava said that would be no guarantee of honesty in the future. “A thief can be a Hindu or a Buddhist,” he said. “A thief is a thief, he has no religion.”

Letters to International Buddhist Council of Bodhgaya, Minority Commission of India & UNESCO

To                                                                    Date : 01-03-2012
The Secretary of International Buddhist Council of Bodhgaya
Mr. Kiran Lama
Daijokyo Buddhist Temple, Bodhgaya, Gaya – 824231.
E-mail : daijokyotemple_bg@yahoo.co.in

Dear Sir,

1.                  The entire monastery in Bodhgaya is under the trust act or society registration act and few are directly invited from Govt. of India which is under special act. I am writing you with my inquiry that what actually all these monasteries are doing in Bodhgaya. As Buddha advised “ Monk’s should not go to any crowdy place ”. Then what these monks are doing in bodhgaya ?? And if they are here then what they are doing ??

2.                  The duty of a monk is meditation and after it, serves the local community, you can say karmo yaga. This is universal law for any monk may be they are from any community. Now the question is why bodhgaya is dirty and give a look around all the temple of bodhgaya may be they are any one. For example back side of Royal Thai Temple, infront of Japanese temple. Not only that even these monasteries can’t even put a dustbin infront of their temple or build a dumping dustbin outside or around their temple !!!  Then what the monks are doing in Bodhgaya ??

3.                  In the budget all these trust allocated money for health and hygiene. And some of the temple running dispensary !!! When the out side of temple is dirty and from where the disease coming up to public then where is the logic of running dispensary ?? Is it not a big drama in the name of charity ??

4.                  All says that it is the duty of Nagar Panchyat may be who ever it is. My dear friends as per Indian law nagar panchayat in India don’t have the duty to clean drain or swipe the road. Under no law it is said that they have to do it. The duty of people is to dump their garbage at the made dumping station which build by the Govt. and the nagar panchayat will pick up the garbage from there.

5.                  To made one unit of electricity it cost around 7 rupees and then tell me what the public paid to the Govt. ?? Who will fill the rest of the money to the govt. treasury ?? For example the govt paid 12000, per year for a child for his / her education weather your child study in govt. school or not that does not matter but it is expenditure for a child from govt. Now the question is do we pay 12,000 rupees tax every year to govt. ?? who will fill the govt. treasury ?? Dear friends we have very bad habit to put things on others solder. Dear friends can’t all the monks every week just for two hours clean the local area ?? What kind of love for mother earth all the monks is having ??

6.                  Who is honestly giving audit report to the govt. ?? Please tell on monastery in Bodhgaya ?? Cheating is the habit of Bodhgaya monks and then they go for protest rally, peace rally, sitting in seminars for ism ..etc. And if I say the truth then Swami Ji is working against the Buddhist. Please go and ask the DM, CM, Chief Secretary, Home Secretary, WHS ( Paris ), ASI ( Delhi ), Supreme court ….. so on what I am doing for the Buddhist. Once your one monk from IBC said “ If IBC write one letter then you will go out from Bodhgaya ”. I give reply through Govt. by using bulldozer on monasteries. How many temple is under illegal land capture case with Nagar Panchayat and how many got notice ?? Can you people do it in Europe ?? You all must be lucky that people here are very innocent and many things they don’t mind. How your temples are telling Indian are not allowed ?? Dear friend I am not your enemy but I know how to protect my people.

7.                  Last few years I am telling you all to take action against the fake monks of Bodhgaya but why you are all sleeping ?? You are using these monks as a toy against the govt. to come at the time of protest rally. You all keep alive all India Bhikku Sangh to manage these people for different rally in bodhgaya and Bhante Praga deep  is the main culprit to keep all these fake monks. You people give him some donation from this way and that way so that his stomach can run.

I do hope that you all must come forward to serve the community by cleaning it regular way. Bodhgaya is ours so let us work hard to make it pure and beautiful.

Mr. Kiran Lama Ji,

Do you think in this life time you will be free from your herbal massage ?? My way of talking is such because I am to the point man and I mean business. Look at the photos and reply me if you people have guts. Not only you Kiran Lama Ji but also the DM of Gaya also run away, the reporters of gaya also run away, the politicians also run away, Karma pa administration also run away and Including Dixey. So you are not alone in this thrown of line.

In this life time if you all think that you have guts to face me then call me and let me discuss the issues with you all. Look at the Photo No. 272 that is the deeds of Lillian who is carrying out the Karma Pa Trinley Dorje Ji’s environment project who is booked by 120 B IPC along with 7 more person in Himachal Pradesh. Then look at the Photos of Tergar Temple at by pass where Karma Pa Ji stay and he is acting like a child of “ Dhitorast ”. He can not see the dirt around hisTemplefrom the window or when he go to terrace at evening time ( 31 feet minimum height from ground level ). And then he is preaching the whole world about environment !!! Then you see another example Dixey ( The light of Buddhadhamma Foundation fromBerkeley,USA) who gave dustbin to Nagar Panchayat to put infront of Hotels !!!!!!!!!!! What a brain don’t you think ??? And when the BTMC said to her that her project renovation inside the temple must be run by the ASI then she thought that Indian Officer may eat all the money so she back footed. She has brain to brought 1 million rupees flower to decorate for her Tripitaka Chanting pandal.  Then you see the photo 6 which is a news paper cut off and it was published at the time Buddho Purnima when all Maharastrian devotees come to Bodhgaya. A mother is a mother but as per you the temple owner which is just a hotel forgot that mother is a mother. You all can not open your temple for stay for these poor mother and sisters !!!! And great brain Dixey call you all for Tripitaka Chanting !!!! See the photo no 7 which is the evidence that puja organizers blackmail the BTMC. Dixey sit hours in the office of DM Sanjoy Singh to make him understood that monks want to sit under the tree. This tripitaka Chanting can cure Bodhi Tree ?? Why she is not sitting hours in the office that BTMC not taking care of Bodhi Tree ( a ) 5 years passed away and BTMC not taking out the white marbles ( b ) Soil compaction taking place in the open place, no water is giving by the BTMC as scientist said, High power lights are harming the tree. She has brain to collect money in the name of Mahabodhi Temple repair and she has brain not to publish in the web site how much money collected in this matter ( Search from her web page ).

See the photo no 2 at the end which is Bhante Priyopal who gave die-log ( my way of spelling ) on be half of Buddhist of Bodhgaya infront of Minority Commission. See how you all Temple Owners giving false bills to every devotees and in the bills every temple of Bodhgaya wrote “ Donation ”. How a donation can be room rent. How you are charging 50 to 1000 rupees per day to devotees ?? Donation come from heart not charge and then you are telling that you give free rooms to devotees !!! Dixey is calling all these liars in her Tripitaka chanting !!! what a brain she is having !!! What a joke … PUJA under the Holy Tree is a good business.

What a joke of the century that they are talking about Lord Buddha’s teachings those who don’t know what Lord Buddha said. And now if I file a case of cheating against The light of BuddhaDhamma Foundation then what will happened ?? Where is Bhante Priyopal and Bhante Pragadeep and there party ?? Why no protest rally with the fake monks when so much corruption in BTMC. Why they are now RAT and hiding in their cave (Temple) ?? Why they are not filing a FIR against the BTMC for corruption ?? Joke of the century Kiran Lama ji and keep in the mind that a Faggot can’t be a man, a Rat can’t be a Tiger and Tiger never eats grass.

May god prevail brain in people

Subject : Look at the evidence and asked the buddhist Budhhist in Bodhgaya

Dear members of minority commission,

Please look at the all the evidence and asked the Buddhist of Bodhgaya what they are doing till today and then you see your report what they told you !!! ??? Please accept my challenge to face the real truth. Please show your honesty. My country is ruined by red lights and yellow lights and is going to answer my questions that I don’t know after 25 years of social work.

Please ask them what happend to now about the trust of doing puja under the Holi Bodhi Tree beacuse His Holiness Karma Pa did His kagyu monlam yearly puja at Tergar Monastery 2012. They shouted about trust on this issue with a protest rally >>> http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/india-news/monks-protest-against-barricading-sacred-bodhi-tree-in-bodh-gaya_100109871.html and why they are not shouting now against the BTMC for not taking care of soil compaction which is harming the holy mahabodhi tree .. See the Japanese Monks prayer just two days back as well as whole 4 months of so called pujas under the holy mahabodhi tree ?? Please ask then to stop cheating Lord Buddha and bodhgaya spiritually & materially.

Subject : Are you hiding from me if not then where is your reply ???

Dear members of minority commission,

How many letters I have written to you dear members of minority commission ?? My granny used to call Red light and Yellow light users as “ Kala Angrez” ( Black English man ) and she always said “ My nation ruined by these people ”.

For example — Our planning commission members said around 3 rupees is enough for a person for a day !!! Now tell me can you get half Tea with that money ?? What is the educational qualification of the members of planning commission ?? Same way see our then Krishna Menon who advice Pandit Nehru to sayTibetis part ofChinaand the whole concept of foreign policy ofIndiachanged !!! Now you see Buddhist example – There is a lady called Dixey ( The daughter of great Buddhist Master Tatan Tulku ( gellek family ) but never dare to face me with issues ) and now she is buying dustbin to put it infront of all hotels of Bodhgaya through nagar panchayat of bodhgaya !!! She organized yearly Tripitaka Chanting under the Holy Bodhi Tree who brought flowers fromThailandwhich cost 1 million rupees for puja purpose !!! She don’t have brain to say BTMC why the marbles are not taking out by you when last 5 years the expert committee said !!! But she has time and money to go to DM Sanjoy Singh’s office and wait hours to meet him to take out the barricade from the open place. You think dear members what kind of brain we have in this world and they are running the show !!! BLACK  OR WHITE all are cheating Bodhgaya spiritually and materially.

The International Buddhist Council secretary have time to go to beauty parlour for ayurvedic massage but he has no time to see why there is huge garbage at the back side of Royal Thai temple which is on the way of his monastery !!! But these people have brain how to call all the fake monks to join at their rally ( see attached photos ) against the government as well as telling lies to the vice chairman of minority commission that they gave free stay to the devotees !!! Asked these people what they will do if I prove that Dr. lam the famous vietnam master have wife and daughter in Paris ?? Asked them if I prove that Chota Bhante the owner of Wat Thai of Bodhgaya is a rapist and his wat pa is the hub of sexual activity ?? It is an open written challenge to the Buddhist World where you are the justice and asked IBC to accept it. More fun is dear members that this lady Dixey invite all such type of monks at yearly Tripitake Chanting !!! A drop of leman spoils the whole milk – cause and effect. People gave donation with trust that their money must be used with honesty but who cares ?? Buddhist practice is based on lies but Buddha is based on truth.

Dear member of minority commission if you like to think that I the Arup Bramhachari is against of Buddhist then you are free to think and I will do my way to save Buddha I don’t need any one because “ Deaf and Dump ” is the base of Indian Administration. …. Jaiiiiiiiiiiii Hindddddddddd.

Subject : Last letter minority commission

Dear members of minority commission,

To-day is the last letter to you because you are same like our parliament members, bureaucrats, BTMC, International Buddhist Council, Karma Pa Administration and Dixey ( International brother wood ). Thanks to lord that he gave you brain to hide from the truth. What ever I say you all you will run away like the way bureaucrats of Gaya, BTMC, International Buddhist Council, Karma Pa Administration and Dixey, all are “ Deaf and Dump ” because if any one look into the issues then they will loose bread and butter and who want to loose their bread and butter ??? Dr. K.P Ramaiya that is why said wait Swami till I became Home Secretary of Bihar because what Amanulla Ji said at that time 2009 that I can not disclose here. All must be thankful to lord that I am not in the administration.

I will be busy withKarmaPain the court OF Gaya within few days.

My humble request to all the member of minority commission is my country is already ruined so please don’t ruined it more by minority or majority. We are all Indian that must be the word. You accept the offer of Govt. of India to sit in the chair of the committee means you are not Indian but a member of minority which is just a hunger of power and to show status which only focus on division in the India Society. You are not real educated as far as I think.

100 ME SE 100 BAIMAAN FIR VI MERA DESH MAHAN

Subject : Please look all the photos of Holy Mahabodhi Temple of Bodhgaya at Bihar and take long term strong action.

Dear Respected Sir / Madam,

With due respect, I would like to bring under your notice about the condition of Holy Mahabodhi Temple issue of Bodhgaya, Bihar, India. It is a great honour for Gaya,Bihar to have a World Heritage Site in the district. But simply declaring a world heritage site is not enough for UNESCO but also taking care off it must be one of the responsibilities. If you say that it is a country affair and we can’t do any thing then my question is what is the use of declaring as world heritage site ?? it is just like when any thing happened then our Indian authority simply said “ State matter or Central Matter ”.

Dear respected sir/ madam last more than one year I am taking up the holy mahabodhi temple issue and holy bodhi tree issue with you. To protect it we need will power within self but our Indian management is same like others. Here the cultured people are so cultured that every moment they are telling lies and lies. Therefore I would like to know what is the solution ??  If you point out with the Indian authority then they are going to say “ Yes .. yes we will look into this matter immediately ” and after that it is same as it was before. So what is the solution ?? I took them into Hon’ble Patna High Court and then hon’ble acting chief justice is telling “ … show all the evidence to district magistrate” so now think when he don’t act on it then I am in the hon’ble court so why should I show it to District Magistrate ?? Dear sir that is the kind of game played by our authority. So what do you expect fromBihar??

Dear respected sir/madam now I would like to ask you few things No. 1 when your 3 member team visited Bodhgaya then do they meet me or asked me to come to meet them when I am taking up the issue with you ?? No. 2 Do your team member asked the temple management committee that why even after 5 years which was the advice from scientist that till now the white marbles are not taken up so that the holy tree could breath well ?? Not only that the director of archaeological survey of India madam ji shout on this issue and asked questions that who gave permission to put white marbles ?? And see even after 2 years it is there so what your team member really did by the tour of Bodhgaya ?? No. 3 Do your team member point out why the huge lights are so close & direct towards an old Holy Mahabodhi Tree ?? How at night time the lights are on till 9 PM or whole night when the trees are sleeping ??  Such a powerful lights not harming the health of the tree ?? Do not electro magnetic field is harming the small plants when lights are on plants ?? No. 4 Do your team members look at the condition of the Holy Mahabodhi Tree ?? If so then tell me do they point out that early morning sun light is harmful for the Holy Tree when it is too old ( for any tree early morning sun light is harmful because night time heat when come with day time heat that particular time creates different energy which harms the plant ). What are the steps the temple management committee of Bodhgaya is taking about it ?? No. 5 Do they look at the stupa’s and asked where is the idols from inside and who gave permission to paint it ?? No. 6 Do your team member pointed out that how the management is managing 2 open place from soil compaction infront of Holy Mahabodhi Tree ?? This soil compaction taking place when the devotees walks on it or sit for puja and it must be stop and for that where is the arrangement !!! No. 7 How people are taking shoes inside aHolyTemplewhen you have put a 100 rupees fine board then do you fine any one ?? It is aHinduTempletoo. Look at anyHolyTemplearound the world ( Hindu, Muslim, Jain, Sikh .. etc ) that do they allow shoes inside a Holy Temple area (Mecca have more bigger area than Mahabodhi Temple)?? No. 8 Do your team asked the temple management that the barks and the black spots of the tree is telling that the tree is sick so how your Indian scientist is telling that the tree is in well condition ?? No. 9 How after repair of Holy Mahabodhi Temple the cracks are coming up if the archaeological survey of India is really used good materials for repair works and also what they are doing when one side of the temple is going down and where is the supervisor from archaeological survey of India ?? No. 10 How much open area must be given for an old Holy Tree and what is your scientist said about it ?? As per plant science theory a tree needs 1/3 area of the whole spreading area of the branches of the tree and the present open place of Holy tree is not enough so what are the steps you are taking ?? No. 11 When your Indian scientist said to take out railings then how this golden colour railing is there ?? Does it not creating heat which harms the old Holy Mahabodhi Tree ??  and tell us how far a person must stand from the Holy Tree  when your Indian scientist is telling no one should come near the tree ??

Dear respected sir/madam where is your scientist team from France as you said to me last year ?? The Indian scientists are telling lies after lies and not answering the question asked by me and even after RTI they are not giving information. I have 5 foreign scientist statements who gave their opinion after seeing 100’s photos of the Holy Mahabodhi Tree said that the tree is sick and at the same time Indian scientists are telling that the tree is in well condition. Sorry to say that your 3 members team did not come forHolyMahabodhiTemplebut to reply the political issues regarding it. Just imagine even after 5 years they can not take out white marbles !!! Even when the director of archaeological survey ofIndiasaid take out all the marbles with immediate effect and even after two years passed away not a single marbles taken out. Therefore who is responsible for damaging the heritage site ?? Where is accountability by the UNESCO as well as BTMC ?? Who is going to talk with Home Secretary of India ( These IAS only fears the home secretary & no one else ) ?? What ever above 11 points I gave you that your 3 member’s team did not asked the Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee. Sir/ Madam do you think that all the above points mentions in the report of 3 member team ??

I do hope that you will come with positive action without wasting time. Enough damage done till now with the Holy Bodhi Tree and with the temple

Thanking you

Dear Sir / Madam,

As I am writing to you last more than one year regarding the condition of our Heritage The Holy Mahabodhi Tree and The temple. I wrote to you on dated 31, 01, 2012, 02-02- 2012, 03-02-2012, 04-12-2012, 07-02-2012 but till today no reply from your office as well as since one year. Even when your 3 member’s team visited at bodhgaya then no invitation was given to us so that we can open the face of the management.

Here is the rules >>  The Committee is responsible for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention, defines the use of the World Heritage Fund and allocates financial assistance upon requests from States Parties. It has the final say on whether a property is inscribed on the World Heritage List. The Committee can also defer its decision and request further information on properties from the States Parties. It examines reports on the state of conservation of inscribed properties and asks States Parties to take action when properties are not being properly managed. It also decides on the inscription or deletion of properties on the List of World Heritage in Danger.

Therefore I would like to know that the State Bihar is taking care of the temple ?? What more evidence you want ?? Please send a scientist team so that we can save our heritage. I am giving copy of this mail to the following persons of World Heritage Site.

Thanking you,

F.I.R AND LEGAL NOTICE

F.I.R  AGAINST BODHGAYA TEMPLE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE MEMBERS

To                                                                           Date : 16-04-2012

The Officer In Charge

Bodh Gaya Police Station

Subject:- Prayer for institution of F.I.R. against the culprits named below:-

Name of the Culprits

1. Bandana Preyashi, Chairman of Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee,

2. Nangzey Dorjee, Secretary of Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee

3. Arbind Kumar Singh, Member of Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee

4. Kumud Verma, Member of Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee

5. Radhakrishna Mishra, Member of Bodhgaya Temple Management Committee

Sir,

With due respect I crave to urge as follows:-

That, the culprits are entrusted with dominion over many properties of theHolyMahabodhiTempleat Bodh Gaya in their capacity either as a public servants or attorneys or agents.

That, it has come to the knowledge of mine and many other persons that the above culprits have dishonestly misappropriated and converted to their own use the properties, so entrusted to them, in utter violation of the direction of the law prescribing the mode in which the said trust is to be discharged.

That, the culprits have forged various documents purporting to be receipts acknowledging the payments of money or receipts for getting delivery of any movable property and thereby the culprits have incessantly been embezzling the cash, movables assets and other properties of the temple for their own use.

That, the culprits, with intent to cause damage or injury to the assets of the Bodh Gaya Temple, have fraudulently and dishonestly cancelled, destroyed, defaced and secreted all the relevant documents that could have shown commission of crimes by the above culprits.

That, in every work, shown to be done in the Bodh Gaya Temple, the above factum of commission of crimes by the culprits can very easily be found out such as construction of toilet at Mahabodhi Shopping Complex with the help of DCA, Cobra Security agency deployment, giving illegal permission to The light of Buddhadhamma Foundation International, Berkley, USA to collect money from all over the world for renovations work at Mahabodhi Temple, so on and so forth. In the year 2007 Dr. K.P Ramaiya commissioner of Magadh Division wrote in his report to Gaya CJM court that a high powered committee must investigate theMahabodhiTemplefinancial corruption and his member’s property.

That, hence, the culprits have committed crimes punishable under Sections 406, 409, 467, 477 and 120B of the Indian Penal Code.

I pray to lodge an FIR against the culprits and to investigate the matter to surface the truth.

Thanking You,

Very truly yours

Loosing Glory

OLD PHOTO                                                                            1ST CHANGE’S

Who gave permission to change our heritage ?? Look  the mahabodhi temple changes which took place in years. Money power in Bodhgaya changed the social febric of the society. Mainly Thai money power. Money can change any thing in this world and Bodhgaya one of the right example  in this world. It is only possible in Bihar.  When I asked the Director of Archaeological Survey of India ( ASI ) about all the changes in the Mahabodhi temple then inreply the Director of ASI said ” Mahabodhi Temple is not in our control”. LOOK AT THE FORMATION OF LORD BUDDHA’S EYES AND ASKED QUESTIONS TO YOUR SELF WHO GAVE THEM PERMISSION TO DO SO ? UNDER NO PROVISION OF BTMC ACT 1949  THAT BTMC CAN CHANGE ANY THING IN THE TEMPLE . THEY ARE JUST CARETAKER UNDER THE LAW SEE LAW NO 44 OF BTMC ACT.  WHO EVER GAVE DONATION TO BTMC THEY CAN CHANGE THE LOOK OF THE EYES OF LORD BUDDHA.

Ven. Bhante Satyanand Agarwal asked BTMC under Right of Information act 2005 that do they gave any permission to any Organization or any one to collecte money for repair work at Mahabodhi Temple or not and in reply after many fight with the officer the BTMC said on dated 13-02-2012 that they did not gave any permission to any organization or any one any permission to collect money in the name of BTMC for repair work Holy Mahabodhi Temple. And when  the fax copy of Dr. Richard Dixey dated 09-10-2010 shown to secretary Mr. N. Dorje then he was speechless  ( click on the photo at below to read it ) !! The question is what is the reason to tell lies to a Buddhist Monk Satyanand Agarwal when he himself is a Buddhist ?? A big corruption is going on. click on this photo and read.  

The inside changes made by a Thai donor known as Smt. Milinote from Thailand. The lady 1st cheated by ex- Chief Priest Bhante Bodhipal which was 30,000 dollars. Again the same lady cheated at the time of making Mahabodhi Shopping Complex toilet which cost her 6 million rupees. It was made by the member of BTMC Arbind Singh by the help of DCA company from Delhi. More funny story is worth of 1.4 million rupees dilute in the donation box due to water going inside of the donation box !!! More funny story is 3 hindu members gave bills of their food, stay, travelling which is around 1.3 million rupees in 4 years and two of them are local so no question of travelling and staying.

CLICK ON THE PHOTO – SEE HOW THE DIXEY FAMILY COLLECT MONEY IN THE NAME OF MAHABODHI TEMPLE SPIRE REPAIR

Due to all these reason I filed FIR against the chairman Smt. Bandana Preyashi, Secretary N. Dorje, Members Arbind Singh, Smt. Kumud Verma, Radhakrishna Mishra ( Bhola Mishra ) on dated 16-04-2012  at Bodhgaya Police Station and also a Legal Notice dated 28-04-2012 to Chief Secretary of Bihar, Chairman of BTMC, Advisor member of BTMC the Magadh Commissioner, Director of Forest Research Institute of Dehradun. Very soon i am taking all these people to supreme court about the whole mahabodhi temple issue. The district magistrate and whole administration, BTMC  is hiding like a thief in the night from me.

Black or white every one is cheating Bodhgaya spiritually and materially. The FRI asked the BTMC to cover the two open area to stop the soil compaction which is harming the Holy Bodhi Tree. When the BTMC barricade the two open area then The Administraion of 17th Karma Pa, Richard Dixey, International Buddhist Council Members and many others gave threat of donation to the Temple. Looking at the situation the BTMC called up the FRI and manage to get permission to organized the so called yearly puja’s which is ” Faith” ( Astha ). The question is where is the Faith now beacsue the 17th Karma Pa did not organized his yearly puja under the Holy Bodhi Tree this year. Where is all the people now to ask the BTMC for not stoping the soil compaction, watering in the ground, giving fartilizer in the soil in last two years ?? Where is Richard Dixey who used to sit hours to meet the then DM Mr. Sanjoy Singh ?? Where is Bhante Priyopal and Bhante Pragya Deep who arranged protest rally by the help of Fake monks ?? Why now no protest rally for so many corruption and not taking care of Holy Bodhi Tree ?? why not dixey, karma pa administartion, IBC people don’t wrote any letter to any where that the BTMC last 5 years not taking out the white marbles for which Holy Bodhi Tree not getting freash air in the soil ?? LORD BUDDHA IS A BUSINESS “ELEMENT” FOR ALL THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE CHEATING THE INNOCENT DEVOTEES WHO ARE LOOKING FOR PEACE IN LIFE. THEY ARE THE MURDERER OF HOLY BODHI TREE AND THE FAITH OF INNOCENT DEVOTTEES.

lOOK AT THE CHANGES AT STUPA !! IDOL IS MISSING AND THEN A BUDDHA STATUE PUT IN THE PLACE BUT NO ONE KNOWS WHERE IS THE ORIGINAL IDOL AND NO ONE MUST CATCH THEM THAT IS WHY THEY PAINT IT. THE QUESTION IS WHERE IS NOW ALL THE YEARLY PUJA ORGANIZERS ?? WHERE IS DR. RICHARD DIEXY & PARTY ? WHERE IS KARMA PA ADMINISTRATION PEOPLE ? WHERE IS INTERNATIONAL BUDDHIST COUNCIL  PEOPLE ? WHERE IS MAHABODHI TEMPLE FREEDOM MOVEMENT PEOPLE ( BHANTE ANAND & PARTY ) ? WHERE IS MINORITY COMMISSION PEOPLE ? WHY ALL ARE NOW RAT !!! THIS YEARLY PUJAS ARE NOTHING BUT A GOOD BUSINESS FOR THE ORGANIZERS. TRUTH IS VERY HARD.

THE CASE OF HOLY BODHI TREE

The case of the holy Bodhi Tree in Bodh Gaya brings many questions about how indian scientists do research. Here I worked out 11 points with many questions, which need a profound research and profound answers….. CLICK ON EVERY PHOTO TO SEE DETAILS

Question. Here you find my question to the Government of India  

Article. in: The Telegraph, 17.12.2007: Priest quits over temple cut charge

POINT 1.        Do your scientist from Forest Research Institute, Dehradun, India measure the respiration of the holy bodhi tree in every visit ? What is the rate of respiration of holy bodhi tree at present ? When there is a method to do so then where is the measurement of respiration ? and then I wonder that how you are telling that holy bodhi tree is healthy ? ….

POINT 2.        How much %  of area of any huge tree like bodhi tree at Mahabodhi Temple, Bodhgaya, Bihar, India must be open ground to get well breath, fresh air, water, fertilizer for living a long life ? Is there enough open area is available at present under the holy bodhi tree in the Mahabodhi Temple, Bodhgaya, Bihar, India where lord budda got enlightenment ?  I do not understand, why there is telling, that holy bodhi tree is healthy….

POINT 3.        Soil compaction is the main issue for any healthy tree. Look the words of Lord Buddha .. ”  The tree that gives you pleasent shade, To sit or lie at need, you should not tear, its branches down, a cruel wanton deeds ”  The Jataka, Vol. IV, page 222 and now tell me when the soil compaction is still going on then how Holy Bodhi tree is healthy ? Bodhgaya Temple Management committee did not take any step to stop soil compaction. Root area is still covered by white marbles last 5 years. I do not realize, that why the BTMC is not taking out the white marbles ? so the bad effect is there, and there is no chance for holy Bodhi Tree to get fresh air and breath….. So ????  

POINT 4.        Look at the golden colour metallic grill and now you see what you said in the hon’ble patna high court and now you think that are you not contempt of court along with BTMC ?  The metallic golden colour grill creating heat which is just below the branches of holy tree and the barks of the tree getting heat which is damaging the cells of the tree. And the marbles are giving direct heat to the root which is harmful for the respiration. Till now root area is covering by cloth by the devotees and also out side Ashoka railing. So there is no fresh air for the tree. So I do not understand, why there is claiming that the tree is healthy…..

POINT 5.        Look at the present high power lights system around the holy bodhi tree ! Is it necessary to switch on lights at night when other lights are on around ?  Tree leaves have the most sensitive skin. These high power lights creates heat which effected the skin of the leaves and leaves carries photosynthesis so how a damage leaves can produce  nutrition for a tree. Dear sir do your  scientist ever put any thermometer just beside the leaves to see the temperature of the lights ? If you do it, you will see the truth….. so ??

POINT 6.        On the road side the butter lamps burning by the devotees, which creates huge carbon monoxide. It effects the respiration of the surrounding trees and also affected the sick bodhi tree. I do not understand, why there is telling, that holy bodhi tree is out of sickness…..
  POINT 7.        Look at the branches all over the Holy Bodhi Tree how dark black it is and it is clearly telling that  the holy tree is effected by Fungi. If it is not fungi then what it is ?Therefore I do not understand, why  you are telling that the holy tree is healthy…..
POINT 8.        When the sun light come out early morning then that particular time is harmful for any tree because Cool night temperature transforming into hot day temperature and the leaves of any tree is most sensitive in the group of living organism and to save from this affect we need to arrange a cover around the holy bodhi tree but there is no advise for cover around the Holy Bodhi tree. I did not find  in  any report.  Therefore I do not understand, why you are telling that holy bodhi tree is healthy…..

POINT 9.        As  your scientist Mr. Harsh from F. R. I said that sound don’t effect the tree. A tree is not living organism ? And every living organism effected by heat, sound, pollution – yes / no and then how your scientist is telling that sound don’t effect the tree. 4-5 thousand monks chanting mantra by mic from 5 am to till 6 pm and that huge sound will not effect a living organism !!!  In the web site of nature magazine you can read the effects of sound on tree …. so ??

POINT 10.      Show me from the CC Tv footage from BTMC that BTMC is giving water, fertilizer to Holy Bodhi Tree as per your advise. I want to see data from the last two years. I am challenging you and BTMC to prove it. Satellite data is available in NASA, RAW of India, ISRO to prove it. Therefore I do not understand, why you are telling that holy bodhi tree is healthy…..

POINT 11.      Look at the Two Bodhi Tree facing each other at west side of the Mahabodhi temple ( Holy Bodhi tree and sister bodhi tree ) and then look at the colour of the leaves. Holy Bodhi Tree leaves is in light colour and sister bodhi Tree is dark green colour. Colour changes took place in the tree out of nutrition. Therefore I do not understand, why you are telling that holy bodhi tree is healthy.  And I wonder, that your scientist gave me in writings, that there is no colour difference and deformed leaves are natural !!!

….After Kalachakra 2012

School Children  clean up the huge masses of Garbage 200.000 people left behind after Kalachakra 2012 in Bodhgaya, Bihar.

More than 60 school children’s of SARASWATI SHISHU NIKETAN from Pachatti started cleaning the area in Bodhgaya, Bihar, India. After the Kalachara Puja, in January 2012, no one is doing any thing to clean Bodhgaya.  188 NGO’s ( Non Monastic), 51 Monastic Ngo’s and 100’s of Hotesl and Guest Houses and business People – they all earns huge money at the time of Kalachakra Puja but no one is giving back to Mother Earth in Bodhgaya. Even his Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama advised every one to take care of Mother Earth. Around 200.000 people from all over the world joined in the world peace praying and teaching. And they left behind huge masses of garbage.   So Children decided,  that every Saturday they will clean in different areas of Bodhgaya for two hours or so until it is clean.

Even for Richard Gere the Garbage smell was too much …

When his Holiness Lama Zopa and Richard Gere were waiting for welcoming his Holiness the Dalai lama Jee ( That is Root Institute Road More ). Richard Gere is wearing a mouth shield because of the garbage smell.
