12,000 Died Fighting Invaders to Save This Temple | Sadhguru

Sadhguru narrates the heartrending story of the devotees of the glorious Ranganathaswamy Temple in Tiruchinapalli who were slaughtered by invading forces of Ghiyasuddin Tughlak, to elucidate how devotees held temples of Tamil Nadu above their own lives and wellbeing.

Sadhguru talks about the pain of seeing Tamil Nadu's temples in various levels of neglect and dilapidation, and why it’s time to end an oppressive colonial legacy and free Tamil Nadu temples.

During an interview to Navika Kumar for the Times Now channel, Sadhguru goes in depth into the issue of government control of TamilNadu’s temples, and the dire state of these ancient centers of art, culture and inner wellbeing.

As Temples - the soul of Tamil culture – suffocate under government control, people of Tamil Nadu express their pain and tell us how despite wanting to take care of the temples and their presiding deities, the rules and regulations in place deny them that privilege.
