00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the ReDian website.
00:05As a devout believer,
00:07it is up to one's own will to donate money to the temple.
00:12However, recently, in a temple in Nadebang, Tamil Nadu in southern India,
00:17someone donated his mobile phone as donation money into a charity box.
00:22Who is such a generous believer?
00:25In fact, this is an accident.
00:27A man accidentally dropped his iPhone into the charity box when he was donating money.
00:33However, when he asked the temple to return his phone,
00:36he was politely refused.
00:38This man just accidentally dropped his phone into the charity box.
00:44Why did the temple refuse to return it to him?
00:47The temple explained,
00:49since this phone fell into the charity box,
00:51it means that it belongs to God and cannot be returned to the man.
00:56At first glance,
00:57you may think that the temple is just looking for an excuse to take advantage of the believer's wealth.
01:02But in fact, this kind of treatment is legal in the local area.
01:07According to the Gong De Xiang Law issued in 1975,
01:11whether you put it in or drop it into the charity box,
01:15whether you are a friend or a foe,
01:18it is already a tribute to God.
01:20It belongs to the management of the temple.
01:23This incident also attracted the attention of the Minister of Religious Affairs and Charity, Babu.
01:29Babu said that he supported the way the temple handled the incident,
01:32and said that according to the law and tradition,
01:35the temple has no right to return any God's property to the man.
01:39However, in order to balance the rights and interests of the man,
01:42Babu said that he would discuss with the relevant departments to discuss a possible compensation plan.
01:47Of course, the temple is not completely heartless.
01:50Although the phone cannot be returned,
01:52they are still willing to open the Gong De Xiang Law and dig out the phone case,
01:57not to return it to the man,
01:58but to let the man back up the data in the phone.
02:01In fact, this is not the first time that a similar incident has occurred.
02:05In addition to the phone incident just mentioned,
02:07in May this year,
02:08a woman from the Kerala gang in India
02:10accidentally dropped a 1.75 kg gold chain into the Gong De Xiang Law
02:14because she wanted to take off the flower ring from her neck.
02:20According to this logic,
02:22this gold chain cannot be taken back.
02:25However, due to the financial difficulties of this woman,
02:28the management of the temple was considerate,
02:31and the chairman of the board finally chose to ask for compensation
02:34and bought her a new gold chain as a compensation for this woman.
02:39It can be seen from this,
02:40although the temple worship system in India is strict,
02:44it is not inhumane and fully reflects the balance between faith and humanity.
