Many people often have to choose between what they love and what’s required. Desiring to be an actor but working as a corporate employee due to financial and time constraints is one of the examples of this dilemma. However, defying this notion, a man in Dakshina Kannada district has successfully managed to maintain a balance between his desires and responsibilities. Sheena Nayka, a resident of Alankaru Balya near Uppinangady town in Dakshina Kannada district plays dual roles of an astrologer by day and a banker by night.
Usually, from morning to afternoon, Sheena Nayka is seen on the premises of Sri Sahasralingeshwara Temple in Uppinangady town in a red shawl, red lungi with a garland around his neck and Trishul in hand. He preaches knowledge to the visitors. He, however, doesn’t claim to predict the future but tries to forecast the near future of the people based on the knowledge he gained from them and his life. In the video covered by Local18, Sheena Nayak is seen blessing the children by keeping his hands on their heads while chanting mantras.
He uses only a part of the offerings given by the devotees for his livelihood and gives the rest to the temples. Sheena Nayaka, who has been fortune-telling through coins for the past several years, has donated millions of rupees to many shrines in Dakshina Kannada District. He has donated his earned money to many temples in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka.
Later in the afternoon, the astrologer resumes his duty as the director at the Land Development Bank at Puttur every day. He manages several paperwork related to the bank. The astrologer who is usually seen in a red lungi and trishul in their hands near Sahasralingeshwara Temple dresses in a formal shirt and pants while working at the bank.
