one door short of becoming a swiss bank...


With the discovery of largest ever treasure of gold valued more than 500 tones of gold from 5 of the 6 secret chambers, Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple is overflowing with riches. No wonder India was the richest country in the world. The Travancore rulers should be credited for their care taking the wealth dedicated to God for centuries. Now that decision by the Supreme Court was towards accounting this wealth, its wise to use a portion of this wealth for nation building. Else, it would eventually find its way to wrong hands, because now we are in the world of Democracy & Not Autocracy.

Uthradam Thirunnal Marthanda Varma, the present heir of the royalty, did not want to say anything about the treasure, describing it as the wealth of Lord Padmanabha. “I must not say anything about it. I am just seeing what is happening,” he said.
