“Tamil Hindus must understand that the Church is frustrated at the decimation of LTTE and would get back with more vigour and venom, applying different strategies. Tamil Hindus are certainly in for tougher and troubled times. The onus lies on the various Hindu organizations to rise to the occasion and thwart all attempts made by alien and chauvinistic forces.” — B.R. Haran
The Sri Lankan connection
Late last month, Deivanayagam proclaimed in an interview to Tamil biweekly Nakkeeran that and his supporters would storm into the Kapaleeswarar Temple and capture it, as it was constructed on the ruins of a Church, which allegedly stood at the site centuries ago! As a first step, he has organized a “hunger strike” with hand-picked supporters on May 2, 2010. His further plans include:
- May 10 – 20: workshop for volunteers to involve them in the forthcoming protest.
- May 23: march from Thiruvalluvar Temple, Mylapore, to Santhome Basilica and Kapaleeswarar Temple; public meeting near temple.
- June 13: storming and entering sanctum sanctorum of Kapaleeswarar Temple and Santhome Church to perform pujas and conduct prayers.
Deivanayagam claims to have conducted a meeting uniting three categories of people namely, Tamil-Hindus who have got liberated from enslaving Brahminical thoughts; Tamil-Hindus who have got liberated from enslaving European Christian thoughts; and Tamil-Hindus who follow atheism, on December 27, 2009, under the aegis of Federation of All Self-Respecting Tamils. This was followed by a meeting on February 27, 2010, wherein they resolved to liberate Kapaleeswarar Temple from Brahmin priests through various agitations.
"Dr." M. Deivanayagam: He wrote a fake dissertation comparing Bible and Tirukkural and got a real degree from Madras University!
Deivanayagam claims the present Santhome Church was originally a Shiva temple built on the grave of St. Thomas and that the present Kapaleeswara Temple was originally a church! The inclusion of Santhome Church in the protest march and storming entry agitation is just a ploy to show he is also against the Church. He pretends he is not a Christian and that he practices only “Tamil Religion” (Thamizh Samayam, or, Thomas Christianity). But the fact remains that the Mylapore Archdiocese (present head Archbishop Chinnappa) has stood solidly behind all his activities for more than 30 years. The very fact that he is able to peddle nonsensical theories, author books on the same, and print and publish them without any known sources of income for over three decades confirms that the Catholic Church is backing him.
On March 27, 2010, he wrote to the Chief Minister requesting him to liberate Kapaleeswarar Temple from Brahmin priests which would have special significance to the World Classical Tamil Conference. Copies were marked to Minister and Commissioner of HR & CE Department. The same day, he shot off letters to Archbishop of Mylapore and Head Priest of Kapaleeswarar Temple conveying his plans to storm both Santhome Basilica and the Temple.
On April 2, he wrote to Tamil Nadu BJP President Pon. Radhakrishnan of his plans to storm the temple.
Chief Minister Karunanidhi gets an award from Catholic bishops for bashing Hindus.
On April 18, he wrote to the Chief Minister reminding him of his previous letter and demands. He urged the Chief Minister to appoint unbiased scholars as interlocutors to conduct his proposed dialogues with the Church and Temple authorities. Copies were marked to Mylapore Archbishop, Temple’s Head Priest, HR & CE Department and others.
On April 16, he wrote to the Commissioner of Police requesting permission to for a hunger strike near Rajarathinam Stadium on May 2, which was permitted. Previously, when he sought to conduct a demonstration on April 14, against the Brahmin community, the police refused permission citing law and order problems.
On April 22, he again wrote to the Archbishop and Temple’s Head Priest that he had informed the Chief Minister and other authorities of his plan of action. He mentioned that the Archbishop of Mylapore had agreed for talks and asked the Head Priest to reply at the earliest.
As mentioned in the police complaint lodged by Hindu activists on May 3, 2010, Deivanayagam has a notorious track record of virulent anti-Hindu activities for over 30 years. Deivanayagam takes advantage of the tolerance shown by Hindus, who have also made the mistake of ignoring him for many years. The hunger strike conducted by him and Seeman indicates a new trend – the development of an unholy nexus between Christianity and Tamil Chauvinism. This combination, in the absence of the Sri Lankan Tamil issue, will seek to destabilize society by playing “caste-cards” and “Tamil-cards”, both aimed at Hindus.
The object of the Indian Church is to create a "Christian Tamil Nation" that includes Tamil Nadu and Northern Sri Lanka.
As observed by Radha Rajan, Editor, www.vigilonline.com “This new convergence of interest between Deivanayagam and the violent Tamil extremists like Seeman is a new trend and is headed only in this direction:
- The Sri Lankan Tamil issue is for now over. The extermination of the LTTE has denied the violent Tamil extremists in TN all avenues for creative self-expression and has brought their political career to an abrupt end. The Tamil extremists in TN and Sri Lanka in turn play the roles of engine and coach. Whenever the LTTE found the going tough for them in Sri Lanka they hitched themselves to the ideological engine in TN to keep themselves going. Whenever the LTTE gained in strength in Sri Lanka, the Tamil extremists in TN hitched themselves to the militarily powerful LTTE engine. It has been a mutually profitable association for both sides.
- The Sri Lankan Tamil Diaspora in the US, Canada and Europe funded the extremists in both countries generously as did all Church denominations in Sri Lanka, America and Europe. Now that the Tamil Diaspora is scattered in North America and Europe and the TN extremists have been deprived of their military might and the LTTE decimated in Sri Lanka, one leg of the Tamil tripod – LTTE, TN Tamil extremists and the Tamil Diaspora – has been sawed off. The TN leg is shaking, while the Diaspora leg even if it is strong in itself, cannot support the tripod alone.
- The idea is to strengthen the shaking TN leg and inject blood into a lifeless limb. The only way to keep the idea of the Christian state of Tamil Eelam alive is to keep the pot boiling in TN – keep this violent constituency united on an issue and keep them from being scattered. If there is one thing all Dravidians have in common, it is their congenital anti-Hindu hatred. Karunanidhi may find Tamil extremism in TN courts difficult to explain to judges here and in Delhi, but he can point the blood-thirsty ghouls in the direction of TN’s Hindus to turn them away from the police and the government.
- So, in the guise of Tamil pride, the violent Seeman, Thol Thirumalvalavan, Pazha Nedumaran and other erstwhile LTTE acolytes are now being actively courted by Christian Tamil priests to take up the cause of demanding that all castes be allowed to enter the sanctum sanctorum of all TN temples to offer poojas.
- TN’s Hindu organizations have long disappeared from public life and the field is empty of all protest and challenge. The TN government and the Church have nothing to lose and everything to gain by pointing this violent group in the direction of Hindus and Hindu temples.
- They stand to gain if the Dravidian parties abjure separatism and seek a huge bite in the Delhi pie; they stand equally to gain if the church succeeds in realizing the Christian state of Tamil Eelam from out of TN and the north and east of Sri Lanka. They may even concede their own Pakistan in Amparai if the Christian state of Eelam comes into being.”
- When the Eelam War-IV was at its peak and LTTE was getting decimated, Theivanayagam planned a demonstration at Memorial Hall in Chennai on April 7, 2009, in the name of “Thamizh Eezham Vendi Thamizhar Samaya Maanaadu” (Tamil Religious Conference Demanding Tamil Eelam). But police refused permission. In the literatures prepared for the conference, he claimed:
- Sri Lanka connected with Tamil Nadu was a part of Kumari Kandam (Continent of Kumari aka Lemuria) before it was separated by Tsunami.
- Eelam Tamils are original inhabitants of Sri Lanka; Sinhalese migrated from India during the time of Emperor Ashoka; the Tamil indentured labourers were sent by British government from India
- Sinhala Buddhists are persecuting Eelam Tamils and the birth of Tamil Eelam is the only solution.
- Tamil Eelam and Tamil Nadu will together constitute Tamil Nation via Thomas Christianity, which is the religion of Tamils.
This will help readers to understand the association of Tamil chauvinist and LTTE supporter Seeman with Christian Deivanayagam. We learn that Pazha Nedumaran, president, Tamil Nationalist Movement, and a known LTTE supporter, pulled out from participating in the event at the last minute.
Conclusion
Tamil Hindus must understand that the Church is frustrated at the decimation of LTTE and would get back with more vigour and venom, applying different strategies. Tamil Hindus are certainly in for tougher and troubled times. The onus lies on the various Hindu organizations to rise to the occasion and thwart all attempts made by alien and chauvinistic forces.
Hindus missed the opportunity first when Arulappa and Acharya Paul were fighting in court; they missed a second chance when Dharmapuram Adheenam demolished the perverted distortions of Deivanayagam; they missed a third opportunity when Deivanayagam organized a four-day conference hosted by Mylapore Archdiocese.
Here is yet another chance, which must be utilized at any cost. Deivanayagam’s theories are not only anti-Hindu but also anti-national. Lumpen elements like Deivanayagam and Seeman are a serious threat to communal harmony and national integration. Criminal complaints have to be registered demanding immediate police action. His premises must be raided, blasphemous books and materials confiscated, and financial sources screened.
The role played by the Catholic Church in backing him must be investigated. Simultaneously, watertight legal cases have to be filed to expose their nefarious activities and to assert the real identity and true history, and safeguard our temples and culture. Conferences and public meetings must be organized throughout the state to tell people the true story of Mylapore and the sham story of Santhome.
This is a perfect opportunity to demolish the so-called Thomas story once and for all!

Sir,
Sub: Original Temple of Kapaleeswarar destroyed by the fanatic Christians as claimed by Dr M. Deivanayagam.
Ref: His letter dated 22-04-2010 addressed to you.
-0-
Please refer to the letter of Dr M. Deivanayagam addressed to you informing that you have already given consent for a dialogue to reveal the secrets about historical facts of “Tamizhar Samayam” [Religion of the Tamils].
Incidentally, he has also brought out a monthly “Tamizhar Samayam” Vol.1, issue No.6, May 2010 in which he has printed the said letter [p.15] and circulated the magazine during the meeting held at Rajaratnam Stadiuim on 02-05-2003.
He has also repeatedly mentioning in the montly that the original Kapaleeswarar Temple was at the place where now the Santhome Church stands [p.8, p.23].
This he also mentions in his another letter addressed to you vide letter dated 27-03-2010.
Besides, he has mentioned about agitations etc., to be carried out and entering the santum sanctorum of the temple fixing dates.
Incidentally, he was actively participating in the “Tamizhar Samayam Conference” organized by Chennai Catholic organizations and at the Doicese Centre on August 15-18, 2008. In fact, you were also there when the proceedings were going on.
Therefore, as a resident of Chennai for more than 50 years feels that these activities appear to aim at creating tension between Hindus and Christians. And I am totally surprised at your sponsorship, association etc., in these events.
Earlier, we have seen the activities of your predecessor Archbishop Arulappa, who was also carrying out such activities, but later leading to criminal cases, out of court settlement and a lot of misunderstanding.
Under the circumastances, I am pained to note that again Christians have engaged in such activities.
Therefore, I request you to clarify your position as to you still support such activities, encourage people like Deivanayagam etc., continue to conduct spurious research like your predecessor with sponsorship etc.,
I would be greatly relieved, if you could bring peace avoiding such confrontatuions in Chennai.
Thanking you.

Respected Archbishop,
The Truth about the Myths of Saint Thomas visist to India is totally denied by true researchers as below, which is well known to Yourself.
Holy see’s Publisher “Burn Oates & Wash BouRne Ltd” has Published Multi Volume “Butler’s Lives of Saints” Edited by Rev.Alban Butler (with Nihil Obstat & Imprimatur from Two Archbishop for its Doctrinal Acceptance) says-
“.. the Syrian Greek who was probably the fabricator of the Storywould have been able to learn from Traders and Travelers such details as the name Gondophorus with Tropical details.”. Pages 213-218, in Volume December.
The Authors have gone through all the major works of the claims of St.Thomas Indian visit claims and one of the highly acclaimed work of ‘The Early Spread of Christianity in India’- Alfred Mingana connected this with Apostle Thomas visit claims and clearly affirms-
“It is likely enough that the Malabar Coast was Evangelized from Edessa at a Later date, and in the course of time a confused tradition connected this with Apostle Thomas himself.”
Holy See’s publisher says that Indian Christianity has mostly the Origins from Edessa,which is in present Turkey- But did Edessa was the area where Thomas Worked?- let us see, how a detailed study by a Secular Historian says-
“Edessa-the modern Urfa in North West Mesopotamia is a city with an immensely long history going back to the Babylonian & Assyrian age. About 132BC it has became a seat of local dynasty, one of whose king raised the pillar.
What Church says about ACTA THOMAE?- in St. Thomas Christian Encyclopaedia, ed. George Menachery in which Article -The Acts of Thomas- by Rev.Anthony Poathoor.
- “The Acts of Thomas in its present form contains many Doctrinal Errors. Some Historians conclude that The Acts of Thomas is the work of an unknown heretic who made use of the Authority to support his own Theological Opinions. Some Other Authors have suggested that the present work is the corrupted form of an older Orthodox version. In the view of former, We can hardly call the text interpolated, because the additions increase nearly Ten-fold to the Original Text. There is no doubt that the present Acts of Thomas is unacceptable from the Doctrinal point of View”. Page- 24
Pope Benedict XVI made the statement at the Vatican on September 27, 2006. Addressing the faithful during the Wednesday catechizes, he recalled that St. Thomas first evangelized Syria and Persia, and went on to western India from where Christianity reached Southern India. The import of the statement was that St. Thomas never travelled to south India, but rather evangelized the western front, mostly comprising today’s Pakistan.

Pope denies St. Thomas came to South India
Controversy is raging in the Christian community in Kerala following recent remarks by Pope Benedict XVI that St. Thomas had preached Christianity in “western” India, from where it spread to other parts of the country, fuelling a debate whether or not the apostle had come to southern India.
The community in Kerala believes that St. Thomas came to this part of the country in A.D. 52 and had established seven churches. The community considers St. Thomas as the “Father in Faith” of Christians in India.
The present Pope had in a recent pronouncement at St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican spoken of St. Thomas the Apostle, seemingly taking away from him the traditional title of “Apostle of India”.
Though the Pope did not actually use the expression “apostle of Pakistan”, what he said might seem to imply it, says an article by George Nedungatt, a faculty member of the Oriental Pontifical Institute, Rome, in Satya Deepam, a mouthpiece of the Syro-Malabar church.
The article says the Pope’s predecessors had on several occasions referred to St. Thomas as the “Apostle of India”. However, differing from this view, Pope Benedict feels the area St. Thomas evangelised was not South India, but what he called “western India”, corresponding roughly to today’s Pakistan, says the article.
The Pope, addressing a vast crowd at St. Peter’s Square, had said: “ … Thomas first evangelised Syria and Persia and then penetrated as far as western India, from where Christianity reached also South India”.
According to the Pope, while northwestern India was evangelised by St. Thomas, South India was not evangelised by him. He does not specify who first preached the Gospel in South India: whether some disciple or disciples of the Apostle himself or others in the post-apostolic age or later, the article says. As the Pope sees it, South India was not evangelised by St. Thomas, but by Christians coming from northwestern India, seemingly at a later period.
“The Thomas Christians of South India, both Catholic and others, are not likely to be thankful for his papal statement. This is a clear departure from the pronouncements of his predecessors,” the article says.
Church sources say there is scholarly debate on the evidence on whether St. Thomas came to India and Kerala. Historical proofs are from the Gospel of St. Thomas and Act of Thomas, the sources said.
From these there (is) evidence that St. Thomas came to India. But it is not clear whether he had come to western India or southern India, the sources said.
In Chennai, meanwhile, Rev. Lawrence Pius Dorairaj, Bishop of Santhome Basilica Cathedral, which is built over the tomb of the apostle, said the controversy sparked by the Pope’s remarks was nothing new. “Going by reports in a mouthpiece of the Syro-Malabar Church, the sentiments of the St. Thomas Christians have definitely been hurt,” he said.
NOTE: This article originally appeared in The Deccan Chronicle, Chennai, of 23 November 2006, under the title “Pope angers Christians in Kerala”.
Then Pope retreated his words back

//..The Very name of the Apostle who is known as Thomas remains obscure. Thomas is the Greek form of the Aramic Teoma whose Greek Translation is Didymus, meaning – “Twin”, most probably his original name was Judas, and the Parentheses and the version variants could have been scribal clarification.
How could an Apostle be known by an Epithet or adjective such as “Twin”-// ”PERSON AND FAITH OF Apostle Thomas in the Gospels, Fr.George Kaniarakath,CMI
Church does not know the Name of the so called Disciple at all.
Many Theolgians say Judas Thomas -Jude -Judas Iscariot could all be one and the same person a Twin brother by birth for Mary along with Jesus. As Thomas of Acts was look alike of Jesus and Jude is so, and as per tradition of Arabia – Judas Iscariout look alike of Jesus was actually the person Crucified.
Now which Judas came to India, Judas of Acts of Thomas Preached against Marriage and was more powerful than Jesus.

“ நிற்க. தற்போது ‘தெய்வநாயகம்’ என்ற புலவர் ‘திருவள்ளுவர் கிறித்தவர்’ என்று கூறி, கிறித்தவத்துக்கு முரணாகத் தென்படும் பல குறளுக்குப் புதிய விளக்கம் கூறி வருகிறார். மேலும், 1. ‘திருவள்ளுவர் கிறித்தவரா? 2. ஐந்தவித்தான் யார்? 3. வான் 4. நீத்தார் யார்? 5. சான்றோர் யார்? 6. எழு பிறப்பு 7. மூவர் யார்? 8. அருட்செல்வம் யாது? என்ற பல நூல்களை வெளியிட்டிருக்கிறார். அவற்றுள் சிலவற்றை ஊன்றிப் படித்தும், அவர் வலியுறுத்தும் கருத்தை நம்மால் ஒப்புக் கொள்ள முடியவில்லை. ‘திருவள்ளுவர் மறுபிறப்பை ஏற்கவில்லை’ என்றும், ‘ஐந்தவித்தான் என்பான் கிறித்து’ என்றும், ‘வான் என்பது பரிசுத்த ஆவி’ என்றும், நித்தார் என்பவர் கிறித்து பெடுமானார்’ என்றும், ‘சான்றோர் என்பது கிறித்தவர்களைச் சுட்டுகின்றது’ என்றும் பல சான்றுகளால் அவர் எடுத்துரைக்கின்றார்.

After the Frist World Tamil Conference, Karunanithi in a meeting advised the Tamilnadu Universities to Research Kural and Madurai Kamaaraj University got Aram for its Kural PEETAM.
I take from Madurai Kamarajar University’s Kural Peedam established by Mu.Varadarajanar, and Peedam selected Lecturer. Selvi.Kamatchi Sinivasan, who was born in a Saivite family in Srilanka, came to India, served various collages before Joining the Kural Peedam. She hadconverted to Christianity also. She was of highest repute for integrity, and Peedam asked her to bring Books
1. குறள் கூறும் சமுதாயம்
2. திருகுறளும் விவிலியமும் (Tirukural and Bible)
3. குறள் கூறும் சமயம் ( Religion of Tirukural) and One more also.
The books were published by Peetam after the death of the Author, i.e., the views represented edited by A team of Experts who made final Edition.
The Author was selected for Her Strict Integrity, being a Christian Convert- as that was the time Deivanayagam was making with the political support of DMK rule and Pavanar links that Tiruvalluvar was Christian and Tirukural is a book based on Bible. The end result was that the Author Madam lost her beliefs on Christianity on researching Bible.
Finally looking at the Methods Adopted by M.Deivanayagam, the Learned Author says –from the works of Deivanayagam, it is doubtful whether Deivanayagam Understood Thirukural or for that Matter Deivanayagam’ Credential of Understanding of History of Christianity is doubtful. I QUOTE Kamatchi Sinivasan book called Kural Kurum Samayam-
“மு.தெய்வநாயகத்தின் நூல்களைப் படிக்கும்போது அவர் திருக்குறளைச் சரியாக புரிந்து கொண்டாரா என்பதனுடன் கிறிஸ்தவ சமய வரலாற்றையும் எவ்வளவு கற்றறிந்தார் என்ற ஐயமே ஏற்படுகிறது. – குறள் கூறும் சமயம்//

Your Church has been instrumental both in Monetary and Research support to M.Deivanayagam, who very clearly says that the Original Temple at Shore was destroyed by Catholics and the present Santhome Basilca was built after demolishing the Original Kapaleeshwarar Temple.
Hindus are silent lot and peace loving, when Christians and Muslims perseucted Jews and Pharisees, Jews who arrived first to India in 7th Century were not disturbed for a single day.
