Heard your questions - God dont need the moeny and wont use it. Its our ancient practice to donate not just money but eatbles and other items as well, the monks and rishi/saints used to just practice rituals and used to do research and educate people, remeber ashrams were our first and only schools. They also used to help poor and build ashrams as intituions for educations and life. We have few even today in modern avatar. All this donation was given to fund all of that, since a Rishi/Saint has minimilistic needs, most of the money use to come back to the people/society. Now a days, they build a reserve and keep few channels flowing to different instituions and social causes.
10 Lakh = 1 million
1 crore = 10 million
100 crore = 1 Billion

India in 1835
"I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is thief such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such caliber, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage and therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their native culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation".
-lord Macaulay's address to the British Parliament on 2nd feb 1835
Actually India had a lots of gold before. It was called "GOLDEN BIRD" coz of lots of gold... It has wide nd vivid history INDI...

Indian history never ending dude 🥰🥰, that's y we are incredible India
She is a not dude, call her dudy!😁
Hey indi... video missed 1 important fact... actually shri padmanabh temple has 7 hidden rooms... 6 rooms were opened under the guidance of supreme court of india and approximately gold of worth 1 trillion $ was found. The 7th room/door is still close because there is giant snake statue on the door which looks like a lock. Saints warned the government not to open it due to religious reasons and it is still closed. It is expected that yhe 7th room is having even more gold than those 6 rooms combined. If it is true then no one guess its wealth, may be 2 trillion $, 10 trillion $ or any number. 7th room wealth can't be seen as just imagination because in ancient india, the kings used some religious symbols outside their treasures and they spread rumors about it so that they can protect it... the gaint rock snake before the 7th room looks like the same example... love from india 🇮🇳🇺🇸
Bro actually 8 vaults total 5 just opened 2 vaults are small ones the biggest vault in the temple is vault B that's also remain closed....
The volt b is closed because they can't open it without the correct chant used in it because the vault is constructed using a musical system without the correct chant they can't open it I know it because I from thiruvananthapuram staying near the temple
Sri Padmanabha temple, wow ! you're the first foreigner to pronounce perfectly at first attempt
Madam nearly 50 cctv cameras are installed inside Sree Padmanabha Swami Temple and the security of the temple is handed over to a heavily equipped Special Force. I belong to Kerala.
India was once called a golden bird. It is slowly reclaiming its heritage.
My INDIA is not developing but We R RECLAIMING... How ironic British gov looted tons of gold n NOW entire Britain is seeking jobs FROM INDIAN MNC...s
That's karma brother no one can alter that everybody has to experience it.
Giving money is not a ritual ma'am when we give money in the donation boxes the temple trust utilses it in feeding poor people and use it in the time of natural calamities, donating money is simply based on the idea of you get what you give, if you donate any amount of money it's given or donated for feeding the or helping the needy and lastly it totally depends on belief you can donate any amount you want .
Got it!
@Manish Sawant true
Imagine how much Mughals and British etc must have stolen it
but we still rich bro by heart and gold
The name Indi itself shows us her love for India 🥰(btw I love your haircut)

so true...
While most of that is true, there's a flip side to it, that we need to appreciate. We might have never united as a nation if the invaders never invaded and we are as weak as any small nation squabbling over local religion and land.
We are strong despite so much diversity, because we are united against common causes.
My point is simple. There's good and an equal amount of bad in everything and everyone. What you feed is what gets the better of you.

I feel Temple is is meant for 3 things,
1) Giving spiritual knowledge to the people, 2) Distributing food or prasadam, and 3) Conducting grand festivals to promote art and culture. This is what people seek and want, at the moment all the Temple money is taken by Government rascals and misused, They are not used for the above said 3 purposes of Temple.
It was untill Subramanian Swamy and some other did great and got Justice from supreme court now no govt can take over temple trust
Tirumala God is more powerful and vvvvery positive wibes in that temple. Respect 🙏🙏
How foolish u are
I really cant understand i am fool or 100 crore indians🤦♂🤦♂

PPL donate to temples,and the temple organization donate the money or donate the food to trusts,and poor people,u can't imagine 1day for total collection of money from Tirupathi,glad you reacting to all our temples, thank you Indi ♥️
In Indian culture it is an custom to donate temples. But it also has an much more bigger purpose to serve. These donations were like a kind of Treasury and was used as reserves during the tough periods. These offerings were not only valuables it also had seeds. And these were used in case of a bigger natural calamities.
All temple used that money to feed poors and other social work 🙏
Also temple is a shelter for poor people🙏
.
Hi , Temples in India are not only social institutions but also economical and political for thousands of years . In ancient time , every village has one main temple called GRAM DAIVAT ( gram means village and daivat means god), this temple provides economic ,social and political support to the entire village ,so even today some temples are centre of all activities in some villages . And in ancient south india under chola ,pandya etc kings encouraged these village temples to be democratic institution at grassroot level. This is an amazing fact that Indian people have known democracy before british came to India . Over the years after freedom in 1947 ,these temples do not perform political activities . But nonetheless temples are still playing it's role in providing economic support to our country .
Temples will provide free meals, prasadam to thousands of people..
The I trillion worth of Jewellery was collected for around 2000 years.
Still 8th vault to be opened.....encoded with mantras...
These temples donated a lot of money during this corona crisis.

Donations/offerings to god is a small thing in Hinduism.
As you came to know each temple got millions of donations they are used to ,
1. Food like lunch & dinner & 'Prasad' [offerings to god] for piligrames.
2. Staff and security and priests salaries.
3. Maintained and buy things used for prayers for gods.
4. Maintain other small temples around.
5. Some temples have & maintains hospitals, medical collages, and non-religious educational institutes {as per Indian constitution only HINDU religious educational institutes are not allowed its like oppression on Hindus, by article 30}.
6. Maintains State governments financially by paying TAX by these temples which in-turn all other religion people get benefited. BTW only Hindu temples pay tax other religions won't another oppression on Hindus.
7. Donates/help people in natural calamities like corona etc..
There are many more good things done by these temples which I will tell you some other time.
It was back then when temples did well.. now, these temples did not do anything to the level of donations they get! it all goes into someone's pocket! instead of donating to temples, we could directly do good to people.. for the estimation of stuff they have lying around the good they do is 1%.. if everyone instead of donating to temple if it was directly given to people in need to make the change it will be faster... temples were good back then now considering the wealth of a temple what are they doing? A temple donating 50CRORE is nothing because they make 500-600 Crore every year in donations.. what is the use of that money when it's just sitting there! god did not ask money we are foolishly giving money in the name of god! if everyone started donating directly the benefits to people in need like instead of donating to temple 50k try finding someone who is in need of medicle expenses and directly pay their bills! that would literally make more diff than donating to nothing :) my honest opinion!
@Rohit Thakur but also consider who holds static wealth more? temple or other religions? its personal choice but that personal choice is making the money to sit still! for all the crores we donated where was it spent now did they spend to help any businesses? did they spend in funding RnD? my only point is they are not helping as much as they are receiving! tax is something! its basic! paying tax is not being generous paying tax is a part and parcel of life! everyone and every institution should pay taxes! considering the amount going and amount going out for spending in good terms is very less ratio is the only point I made! its not about religion its about reality of how the funds are used for! When YES bank almost collapsed tirupathi took out all their wealth out of it! in matter of days but when it comes to corona where was the wealth to help people as much as they received? the point I'm saying is Temples are accumulating wealth and not giving out at equal fashion to balance it out :) check all the assets and the assets actually inturn makes more money for them which is going into pockets of people rather to help! I'm speaking with data and you are speaking religious terms both are different!

We Hindus want to decorate the home of God, decorate our good, and we love it, so we donate gold.
Hi, This was a tradition and in olden days the amount was spent whenever there is a pandemic.
I appreciates your hard work to show the greatness of india
Are you seriously bro !
Hi indi, a lack means one hundred thousand, and one core means one hundred thousand hundred times, the donation is used for upkeep of the temple, priest, in addition the donation is is used to feed the needy every day, education, medication, and other social needs of less previlaged
Hey Indi, it's a tradition or way of life of Indian people to donate In trample. From thousands of years. you may be surprised Indian women have 15 times more gold then us federal reserve.thanks...
Indi the money is used by temple trust for temple maintenance like paying staff salary ,expenses prasadam( holy food) , infrastructure . These temple are governed under government control so even they can use this money , mostly money is also used by temple trust to donate to needy . Like Isckon Radhe krishna temple runs Akshay Patra Foundation, which is an organisation that feeds millions of hungry students in government school every day.
Indi 10Lakh =1Million and 1crore=10Million.
When i went to pray sree padmanabhaswamy temple, i am also curious what they going to do with so much gold, i asked a person he told me, if the country is in any dangerous situation or gone though tought time these reserves are going to use to help the people.
Then why havn't Kerala govt donated anything to pmo in this covid crisis .
@@Net-Warrior dear net warrior please ask Pinarayi Vijayan he will give you best reply.
@@Net-Warrior it's under Dept of archaeology that's why
@@sarathsivadasan9721 Are you from Kerala ?
@@Net-Warrior The Government of Kerala doesn't and will never control any temple. Let alone Padmanabha Swamy Temple. Infact there is a petition by Subramanian Swamy to remove some temples from government control. The moment temples come under Government control you have complete loot of wealth! This wealth is kept as a reserve in case the Country goes into a crisis that cannot be resolved by the Government of the day. Government of India is doing a fine job in handling the Wuhan Coronavirus crisis. So temple money is not required. Yet the temples have already donated large amounts to PM Cares fund. So I don't see why Kerala Government should get involved here. I don't want Communists touching my Temple's money! It is given by Hindu devotees and the devotees will decide how it should be used! Not some Communist pig!
Hi Indi, Good to see you, A "Lakh" is a 100 Thousand and a "Crore" is 10 Million. Our culture denotes that we give first priority to GOD , out creator of all that is , hence the wealth donations to GOD and his Temples, More than anything, our spiritual bonds are very strong and we'll rooted in our culture, just as in most cultures. We believe that, Good or bad doesn't come from others but manifested within one's own self. Thank you for your passion on our beloved Country INDIA.
Hii ...Indi
you said where they spend all this money ..
Well recently lot of temples donate money to fight against Corona virus and providing food to migrant people,student everyday..
You may heard the news that Gurdwara / Indian temple in new York providing two time meal ? to their people..😊😊
Please Do visit and spend some time in the temples, you will come to know why.
Please react to "padmanabhaswamy temple"Trivandrum..
I'm proud to be a 🕉️hindu, also an Indian🇮🇳
Donation of temple are used in salary of temple employees, charity school, Hospital and free food for visitors.
Rossi advice you may visit to the India and stroll historical places 🙂🙂 I loved when you create expressions of Shock 😁😁😁
From my understanding these temple's have charitable trust. And some trust run educational institutions and hospitals and stuff like that. As well as provide free food everyday in some temples. As well as expenditure for the running of the temples. Expenses during festival seasons etc. So there are lots of expenses that go into maintaining these temples.
it is estimated that the average amount of money TTD(Tirupati Tirumala Devasthanam) gets through offerings by the devotees is about Rs. 2.35 crores($380,000) per day. When the income from other sources is considered as well, then it is about Rs. 6.34 crores($1.036 mn) per day. A few part of it it used for the maintenance of temple, but most of it is used for the people again there are many hospitals, a university,...etc built by the temple for the people in return. All this info is legit bcz I got the info from the TTD chairman who is a family friend of ours.
Also millions of people are fed for free everyday.
The temple on the number 1, it has a couple of more storage vaults left to be opened. But it is being guarded by hundreds of poisonous snakes.
And 10 lakh is 1 million, and 1 billion is 100 crores.
Perfect RIGHT brother. 🙏 🚩 🇮🇳
@@FRUSTVIZ funny CMT
It's not like that what you say, the vault are locked by a special kind of locks known as Nagabandha n the key to the nagabandha is a special combination of sound, which is not known to anyone now. The arch entrance have large snake sculptures n the sound combination have to be played in front of that to oped the stone vault. All the attempt to break the vault we're unsuccessful even they tried to blast the vault open .. I could say this because I belong to the Travancore province..
@@FRUSTVIZ done bruh! Sorry I made a typo😂
@@arjunkrishna9486 indeed. You possess the knowledge about the temple in details. What I knew so far was just the cherry from the cake.
The money is given to the needy person and during natural disaster proud to be an indian
Lakhs and crore is just the term used in India like million and billion used in your country and in the video they forgot to say that the last room is still closed, some ppl say the last room alone contains the value of all the rooms put together and there is also a catch if that room door is opened something bad will happen..
IT is a simple way to show gesture...that whatever we acquire today is because of you.....so we give something which is very precious to us..... whether it's money, gold, diamond....etc
No one can just take money.
These temples do a lot of charity and social works with that money
Tirupathi Balaji Temple runs, Orphanages, education institutions such as Medical Colleges, Hospitals, Vedic Schools, free meal system for pilgrims ( Daily capacity 50,000-100,000 meals), Serving during calamities such ac NCovid19 etc.. Apart from that TTD has Ayurvedic Medicine College and Hospital that treats patients free. Almost all the rich Temple Trusts serve poor and needy. Apart from running Vedic Schools.
You can react to the 10 most incredible mysteries of india. I hope u will like it 😊😊. Lots of love from india
Hi Indi,
There are two main School of thoughts in Hinduism which makes Hinduism or the Indian Spirituality more Diverse. Out of which one is the 1 god/Entity/Energy concepts where you don't need to donate any thing to the supreme as you are a part of manifestation of the same as everything around you. Thats why the lot of Sadhu's and other religious people with enhanced mental strength does not even pray but just meditate and try to discover themselves. And in Indian Spirituality, discovering themselves is always the best way of worshiping the supreme. You cannot find any ancient temple in the form of a Prayer Hall as Praying was not primary while visiting the Temple.Even in All the Sayings (Importance of Mother, Father, Teacher and GOD), or scripts (Eg. In Gita, out of main three sections, Bhakthi Yoga (Section of Worship) comes after the Karma Yoga (Section of Actions), and Njana Yoga (Section of Knowledge)) Worship, prayers and gods are always got last Importance.
Since it was not easy to teach and make understand this concept for normal People, the later school of thought came into surface where it is said there are 33M gods and you need to worship certain form of GOD to achieve something, kind of teaching started. The more funny thing in this case is they numbered 33M of gods where Indias population was around 33M itself. Now basically we are not becoming gods and the 33M stayed at that point.And also if you do a minimal research on each of the rituals performed in the Temples or even at homes, you will find out that there is no rituals presents in Indian Spirituality which does not give a Social or Environmental benefit to the surroundings, and each of them can be backed up with a proper scientific basis.
Coming to the Point, as per the second Second School of Thought, to provide a feeling of give some thing to get something kind, it was taught to do any kind of donations at the time of visiting a Temple. And it does not limit to money or gold. You still can donate flowers from your garden at home, do some help in the temple works, etc. Anything can be a donation and get "Blessings"from the deity.
1 crore (10,000,000 ruppies)
= 2,293,842.00
1 Lakh (100,000 ruppies) = 22,938.42
The temple system in India is ancient.. Each temple has its own history.
Rupees*
What is that calculation though?? 🙄
@@himshikharbiswas he forgot to mention pounds/dollors after converting the value. And haven't bothered to mention it so as to confuse Indi I suppose.
@@FRUSTVIZ lol but still, it neither matches the value of pound nor dollars. 😅😅 Don't know if Indi liked the number conversions or the message written beneath
What have you written? And it's rupees you donkey 😂
Still India is wealthiest country...in the sense of lifestyle... Humanity... cooperation... happiness...many more
No.1 temple value is one trillion Us dollar
That's just 30% of what's actually there
@@SuryadevaraRammurthyNaidu yes bro
Its not a trillion dollar its trillion rupees that's roughly 14 billion dollar
Donations done by people in Temples kept in highly secured zones. Some are diverted to Banks, Financial institutions .In form of loans to common people on low interest rates. Some Temples help tiny villages to set up their needed things like schools, hospitals etc.....
Indi u r amazing especially the Tattoo on your hand, well to answer your question about donation its a tradition which v have been following since not sure how many years .And it is not necessary to donate only gold or silver you can donate any thing even food item which is then cooked at all the temples mention in this video to feed the devotes who come at the temple for free . All the temples do a lot of charity as well however because of the population and the no of devotes who come to offer are more then the needy who come at the temple the funds get stored and stored and stored and this will continue till the end of the world that's for sure love u lots and love your hair style regards.
The offering is not For god or devotees the donation that we give to our temples is the funding which the temple authority uses for many charity works , orphanage homes , School , hospitals,etc...It's not about money it's about helping for needy.
Its so strange that golden temple isn't in list
Bro Golden temple in the list of 10 richest temple in india😊🙏
1 Lakh = 100,000
1Crore = 10 million
These temples spend those on charities and development.
Eg: Tirupati 2nd in list recently deposited 700 crores in bank , so that it's daily free meal program to 50,000+ people is run with the interest from that deposite. So indirectly our donations are converted to meals.
Live and let live is the simple formula of Hinduism. 🙏
Wow..your reaction was adorable and worth watching it again and again when you heard the large amount of collections of these temples especially the last one.
I'm from shirdi 😍😍🥰
You should visit Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple, in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. It's actually mysterious. No one knows exactly how much of ancient treasures are inside the all the 7 vaults inside. What's most intriguing is, Supreme court of India directed those vaults be opened and only 6 have been opened. The B vault is yet to be opened and no one knows how to open it. The treasure inside all these vaults are said to be priceless.
But, baring all those treasures, I always get emotional just by getting a glimpse of the Lord Padmanabhaswamy (Vishnu). Don't know why?It's actually very peaceful.
We Hindus believe God is giving us everything , and we believe we should pay back little bit .....so we do this
Different between lacs and cr.
Is 10 lac =1million
Or you can say 100000= 1 lac
01Cr.= 10millin
Or you can say 10000000 =1 cr
In this list the temple will use huge amount of donation for (ANA DANAM) whish means who ever viset timple the temple will provide free food . Who ever it is . Even tho non visters can have that food provided by the temple. And this veg food is unlimited for everyone this Anadanam is also known as (PRASADUM)))

The best way to give honour to our Hindu Lord's is donate money to poor people and also give food to them.
The money use the government
Regarding why do Indian people donate money to temple and why does god need our money ?
Temples use the money donated by devotees for many purposes :
1. Pay the priests and employees in the temple their salaries.
2. Many temples serve free food 2 to 3 times a day for more than hundred to thousand people everyday. And hundreds of poor people living near the temple have their food at the temple everyday.
3. To maintain and renovate the temple premises.
4. To organize annual festivals and spiritual functions.
5. To build ashrams or what you call spiritual retreat centers for devotees or those seeking spirituality and for conducting sessions and classes.
Temples provide free meals every day to lakhs of people. Also lot of temple trust have started hospitals, educational institutions, charitable trust etc to give back to society. In times of calamities etc huge donation are made by temples to help people inthe times of need.
In olden days temples were more than just a place of worship, it is used as schools, also as bunkers during disaster, even many temples in south have secret cave paths that were build by kings inn order for evacuation during war times. Those times the wealth store were used to support a kingDom's expense at very crucial times. IT was like a huge piggybank
The last temple was made of pure gold!!!
The temples also have a 'ranga mandir which was a stage for performing dance, drama and religious discourse. The walls of the temple were built with rock and housed the women, children and the elderly when the city was attacked by an enemy.
These are 1000s of year old , and during old kingdom they served as Reasurve to the Treasury, an integral part of Economy. And you have to understand 150 years ago for almost 1000 years continously Indias Was world's richest land 26% of global GDP
Tirupati (was THE richest until Padmanabha temple's treasure was found).
So Tirupati temple is managed by a trust and govt is part of the trust. So the trust runs universities, medical colleges, schools, provides employment to around 50K ppl, free food to poor, contributes a lot to temple town which is also called tirupati.
Also manages a lot of temples in the state.
These reserves were built for difficult times...natural calamities and disasters, aftermath of war, and other unforeseen circumstances when the nation will need money to feed its people. The temples were known to help the people in times of need. All these donations and reserves started small...these large amounts today is accumulated amount built over hundreds and in some cases thousands of years. It was like a national fund where kings and common people donated selflessly for the welfare of everyone.
if you are into old temples in dravadian architecture there are millions in south india aging 1000's years old liteerally you can find temples with a legend in almost every part of south india mainly the states of karnataka,telengana,andrapradesh,tamil nadu and kerala
Each temple that was listed in the video has a trust that has board of appointed members. Under the umbrella of these temples are various branches of charity. For Example, the Tirumala temple trust (TTD) runs a 24/7 free food mess where hot meals are served through out day and any one can walk in and have a high quality meal that gets prepared in world class kitchens. It also provides free food to devotees waiting in lines for offering prayers to the Lord. TTD also runs a university, Drinking water project, Power project, Wild life protection and sanctuary, to name a few from a plenty of other humanitarian drives. The donations from the devotees are also used in running the temple, and providing livelihood for the families of the employees of the temple that includes priests and people working in various branches of temple administration and maintenance. Similar things are done by other temple trusts as well.
2021 update: indian people hold 25,000 tones of gold it's much more and 676 in reserves (As per 2019 research) now it's much more than that. That amount is around $1,135 billion (Public holding)
India was called 'a golden sparrow' when Britishers arrived in India for trade. The richest temples of India are located in India, just imagine how wealthy Indians were before the British era.
It’s said that having Bhakti (devotion) is more important than the money. If you are poor and you could only offer flowers that may be more valuable than thousands of rupees donated. All depends on the devotion or Bhakti
well the money received helps in arranging food prasaad for all people and the latest also has been helpful for the current situation covid 19....this is India🙏😇
So many temples missed out or out of the scope of this video. Like Sri Jagannath Temple, Somnath Temple, Golden Temple etc.
With all that fortune still it won't be used influence Hinduism on anyone, there are hardcore realities in western countries to raise funds to promote their religion.
India was the richest country but never went conquering other lands n spread religion.
Most of the donated money is used by the Temple trust for charity, feeding pilgrimages on daily basis, helping Poor's, maintenance of temple building, schools, hospitals, nearby city welfare works , salary of Pandits and many more works....it's not necessary to donate money in temple but people donate money by there own will to indirectly help others who are in need through temples charity work.
The temples feeds thousands of people every day without a charge of penny , giving offerings to these temples means indirectly helping out others through charity
before the mughals and british invaders... temples not only used to be just for worship but for education, training, research, important economic centers of the ruling king, hospitals, feeding poor people, and much more... and all this was done as charity not any compulsory charges were made.... as the mughals invaded they began destroying temples so all this culture was lost...

For covid19, "Sirdi sai baba temple" donated 1500 crore rupees = 198 million dollars to the Prime Minister relief fund.
People donate.. temples collect.. And at the time of crisis like in recent corona times they have donated millions of rupees to help government also they offer free food + shelter to the people who don't have anything to eat or Anywhere to live .. Govenment can use that money in the time of any financial issue to the country and the temple trust will help
1) Donations can be made in the form of anything it's upto you..it changes people to people ..for example ..you can donate in terms of money ,gold or you can make a 11 to 101 (pradakshina ) round to temple that's what I do..I only once gave the donation of 200 rs.( I am 31 yrs old )... Those who have it they gave it.. those who doesn't they don't it's part of belief that you have gave me everything I needed and this is what I want to offer you this time ..
2) temple uses those money for food for the pilgrims some temples for infrastructure and facilities of pilgrims and for the salaries those who work there offcourse ...
3) this is what I think..rest will and can have other opinions as well ..but mostly will agree on this..🙏🙏
Lakh means 0.1million which is 100000 and crore is 10 millions which is 10000000.And, in india this temples are also donates money to help needy people and also provide funds to the state gov whenever there is a hazard happened in India
Actually the System was such that everyone should share it's bit in temples as and when they can. Temples were strategically located on higher ground and we're made strong. India was very prone to floods and droughts as it all depends on Monsoon rains. So when there was a calamity all the people around take shelter in temples and temples provided with food and shelter till things get normal.
Temples have always donated to government in time of crises like in 1971 war against pakistan.
