[Guest guest]

Omm, great bhakti you have and you will be rewarded 1000-fold

eternally for your efforts. In good time and with God's blessings,

things will come together and fall into place.

 

Suggest you also try to contact some religious groups and

organizations in Sri Lanka. Many Tamil Sri Lankans go to Sth India

for yatra/pilgrimage, hence they are likely to joyfully do dharma

and seva within individual financial means.

 

No matter how much or how little donations they can afford, it will

all add up. Gradually things will gather momentum and the Temple

will be restored to its former glory and sanctity.

 

God Speed.
