Kreupasanam Retreat Centre which is situated beside the Kochi-Thiruvananthapuram high way in Kalavoor in Alappuzha in Kerala has become the talk of the town these days. It is a Marian Shrine where Blessed Virgin Mother of Lord Jesus appeared to one devoted Catholic Priest by name Rev Fr Joseph Valiyaveettil also called as VP Achchan on 7th December, 2004. The huge number of miracles happening there every day is a simple proof of the Marian Apparition!
As this Shrine has turned to a center of immediate and guaranteed miracles, it has become the last resort of large number of desperate people who lost all hope in life due to various unsolvable problems in life. Obviously this news spreads like wildfire and more and more people throng to this Church expecting some remedy for their burning issues. And when they receive miraculous favours from God through the intercession of Mary Matha, they voluntarily spread the good news with their kith and kin and thus become the ambassadors of this Center naturally for the fulfilment of their joy and the benefits of their near and dear who are also in similar pathetic conditions.
Seeing the flow of large number of people to this Shrine, a small handful of anti-social and ungodly elements with vested interests lost their sleep and started spreading false propaganda and fake news about this center and their founders. As we know there are some people in the society who cannot digest the happy, prosperous and peaceful lives of their neighbours. All what they can do is to create unrest and try to stop the flow of devotees to receive Divine Blessings. Naturally when they gathered like-minded persons and started spreading some negative news, some media started focusing their cameras to the pilgrim center. Many times without making proper investigations, these print and electronic media create and air their fabricated news with no truth in it for the sake of some 'breaking news'. And the social media trollers will get some satisfaction by sharing some trolls about it.
When I visited the scene and closely observed the events there and interviewed many people I found all the allegations are baseless and are the work of the negative forces to disturb the great work of God. But I feel and believe strongly that no person or powers can succeed in stopping the work of God.
These are some of my observations about Kreupasanam Marian Shrine collected personally and from numerous persons who visit it.
1. They do not demand or collect any money forcefully for anything. For making Udambadi (covenant) with God (not with the priest as alleged by some) that one will love and serve others and live honestly and responsibly, no money is charged. But the cost of some devotional articles like candles, olive oil, honey etc only is charged.
3. Everything in Kreupasanam is transparent and open. Nothing illegal or unethical things occur there or are encouraged.
2. Free black tea, bread, kanji etc is provided to all who need on fasting days.
3. A miracle is an extra ordinary event which cannot happen in the normal sense. People in large numbers crowd there seeking Divine intervention without any caste, creed, religion or regional barriers. As the enemies blame, no religious conversions take place there. [Ask anyone or watch the testimonial videos of people who got converted from other religions to the Catholic Church to know about the long and slow process one has to go before Holy Baptism is given in the Catholic church.]
4. People belonging to different categories visit this center. Some out of blind faith use Kreupasanam articles in their own way. For example I could see the witness of an old woman who burnt the news paper and applied the ashes on the incurable Psoriasis of her son and got it cured instantly. Hearing such testimonies some persons without proper prayers and faith might have used the Kreupasanam monthly news paper for miracle and might have faced adverse effects.
5. Miracles occur for everyone (if it is good for the person who prays) provided he/she follow certain conditions like abandoning sins and becoming good and praying with belief in God Jesus and His Mother Mary.
Hence it is recommended to all who criticise the Divine work at Kreupasanam to make a visit there and see in person or watch the real testimonials of people who have received numerous miracles from Lord Jesus through the intersessions of Blessed Virgin Mother Mary...!

കൃപാസനവും, അതിന്റെ സ്ഥാപകൻ ബഹുമാനപ്പെട്ട ജോസഫ് അച്ഛനും ലോകത്തിനു പ്രതേകിച്ചു മലയാളിക്കും ഇന്ത്യക്കാരനും, ഈ കാലഘട്ടത്തിൽ ദൈവം തന്ന വരദാനമാണ്.
ReplyDeleteദൈവത്തിനു നന്ദി ...!
Kreupasanam Retreat Center is a boon to the society.
ReplyDeletePlease Pray for us, Oh Blessed Virgin Mother of Lord!
Attention Kerala's senseless media and crazy trollers, why don't you watch the numerous testimonies given by people belonging to different religions about Kreupasanam Shrine before simply publishing your dirty materials?
ReplyDeleteDon't play with God just as you do with others.
Krupasanam has become the last and final refuge of millions of desperate people who have lost all hopes in life.
ReplyDeleteKreupasanam serves as an incredible place where tens of thousands of people are unbelievably transformed into worthy citizens by giving up voluntarily the vices in their lives, through the Grace of Kreupasanam Mother.
Whoever criticises Krupasanam Retreat Center is an antisocial and inhuman devil.
I am speechless.
ReplyDeleteI feel pity on the so called devotees for finding a shortcut or a miracle as you all call it to happen. You all have to develop a sense of undetstanding for the nonsense that is spread from within your so called centre.
Spread goodness through better means please and not through false words from another human preacher.
You seem to be an 'intellectual'. You could have posted this 'valuable' comment with your id (account). Have you ever visited Kreupasanam? If you had done so, you would have felt pity for the numerous desperate lives who throng this center for a solution to their unsolvable problems and would have joined them to thank the Almighty wholeheartedly in the miracles that occurred in their lives. God Bless!
DeleteI have lost my own mother to these preachers and this center. There is no peace in my family. She acts really psychotic with some oils, blue and green candles, water with salt in it, and many other silly stuffs. Does God sit and watch with which colour candle you pray so he will do his miracles? A lousy guy without working and just praying gets everything he wanta? Dont you guys realise these priests and preachers have studied Psychology and other such subjects to understand and play with other human ways of thinking to get their business done? My family had been more happier and good untill my mom fell as a pray into these. I am writing this with such a heavy heart. My dad and sisters are suffering because of these behaviours of my parents. Nothing has changed or got better from the day she got into these. It just just worsen everything in my family.
DeleteN i dont expect to put my name here. i dont want to give you all a chance to humiliate me because thats what we malayalis are famous for.
You may claim its for peace. I literally lost everything by watching the way this evil deeds have took away the beautiful family of mine. The most happiest countries are the ones who dont believe in any such religion and all man made stuffs.
and where was this form of Mother Mary atleast 25 years back?
you create something and fool people with the promotional papers and get more people into this aswell.
Without just making assumptions, please feel free to make a visit to Krupasanam and watch closely what is happening there. If you have any difficulty atleast watch some live testimonies online!
