CORRESPONDENCE WITH DEVOTEES
The temple management has built up a rare kind of rapport with its devotees through a system of regular correspondence. Every year thousands of letters and remittances for sevas are received from different places. They are promptly acknowledged and replaced. Devotees seek solutions to all kinds of physical, economic, domestic, and mental problems through these letters. Every letter is replied with enclosures of Prasadam, a photo of mother Mahakali and a particular name of the Mother Goddess to be daily chanted by the devotee for earning Divine Grace.
The temple office maintains a register of devotees with their addresses. After a devotee gets his name and address entered in these register, Prasadam is sent to him regularly once in a year, whether he offers any Seva or not.
'The devotees are the mainstay of this temple. This is the motto of the temple All acts of worship in the temple are meant for the advancement of the devotees and not for God as such. !!
Any temple can find all the resource needed for its renovation and development, if its management maintains personal contact with its devotees in the mannerdescribed above.
