Introduction
Let us generously donate silk dhoti to Guru Raghavendra Swamy Mutt in Mantralayam and also to the various branches of the Mutt. Devotees can also reduce some of their entertainment related activities, and instead of that, they could utilise that money towards doing some kind of spiritual oriented activities, like donating of dhoti to Guru Raghavendra Swamy Mutts, in order to get it adorned to our holy Guru Sri Raghavendra Swamy’s Brindavana. Comforts and luxuries are also necessary in order to increase our standard of living, but at the same time, we must also allocate some amount towards making donations in doing good and golden activities. Ancient kings have donated lot of wealth towards spiritual oriented activities, and due to that, they have lived a healthy, wealthy and a prosperous life. But, nowadays, some rich people are not interested in making donations for spiritual purposes, with the intention that their hard earned money may not be properly utilised by the temple authorities. Hence, instead of giving donations in the form of cash, they can give donations in the form of kind, like purchase of dhoti to temples, mutts, and, we can also distribute dhoti and sari to the poor and homeless people from our own hands.

Among all types of donations, Vastra(cloth) donation is considered as the most sacred form of donation. Since without wearing a proper dress our honour would be lost. As per the famous TAMIL PROVERB, “UDAIYATRAVAN UYIRATRAVAN”, which means, those who don’t have proper clothes to wear would be considered only as dead though they are alive!
During the period of Guru Raghavendra, even some Mughal emperors had gifted lot of Vastras (Dhoti) to him by considering him as a divine saint, and due to that, those emperors have received nice blessings from our great Guru Raghavendra. At the present situation of life, without putting strain, we couldn’t achieve anything in our life. Hence, let us donate lots and lots of Dhoti to our golden guru Sri Guru Raghavendra, in order to get a golden future.
Some years back, I have been instructed by Guru Raghavendra Swamy who had appeared in my dream, and asked me to donate twelve dhoti to his Mutts, and as per his wish, within a few months, I have done that noble job, and since I suddenly recollected those wonderful memories, I am writing this article, in order to want Guru Raghavendra Swamy Devotees also to participate in this noble activity.
