To all Goanetters who have taken time & trouble to see what damage we do to
each other, in the name of religion, & the awful way in which we tend to depict
each other's faith, albeit in a negative light, such as Mr Hussain.
I would like to suggest that Mr Hussain who must have a heart & soul of
sorts, somewhere in his body, to now consider giving some of that hard cash he
earned so easily, part or all of his ill-gotten gains from the absurd way in
which he managed to glean cash for his depictions, perhaps to an ashram for the
Orphans & Elderly who are the great unwanted of India. This would be a way
forward & would pay for some of the hurt he has done to those who are deemed as
the great unwashed, unwanted & discarded in the country.
I dont know how much he made over the last 30 years or so since he reached
the legal retirement age, perhaps a million rupees (Indian or Mauritian ok),
will do for now, or any other currency is acceptable, please send it to the
Sivananda Saraswati Sevashram in Chennai.
They do not discriminate when they have to feed, water, educate, accommodate
all those kids & the old when they take them in, they also do not discriminate
who gives the money either. Even Mr Hussain would be welcome in their house.
Barefoot over Agni would be a way to cleanse himself.
Anyone wishing to do good by Mr Hussain, who appears to have no conscience
nor recognise what he has done, may contribute annonymously, or if you prefer,
or he divulges he ID, then you & he will receive a thank you letter / email.
Full details of the director, ( he is a Padma Shri also), Dr Rajaram whom I
have known for a number of years, to this ashram.
Email if you like, write to him if you like, donate please, any sum is
welcome, a few spare rupees will do just as nicely & you will get just as nice
a letter and a thank you from him & his Sivanada family -------- to
The Sivanada Saraswati Sevashram

With love to all, no matter what religion, faith or persuasion, in the name
of humanity, give generously.

................... However, if your argument of a long time ago is to be
taken to the logical conclusion, then a crime committed some years ago, but
came to light only now, should go unpunished. I hope you are not saying
this.....................
