'Aren't women human beings' -- entry into Sabarimala temple
by Rajeswari on Jul 06, 2006 10:33 AM

Whether the actress entered the Sabarimala Ayyappa temple or not, the rule which denies women having darshan of the Diety is nonsense. Because of some 'rules' created by some selfish individuals barring some castes/creeds, the whole Hindu religion got a bad name. Everyone (esp. Hindus) should be allowed to visit any temple (including Sabarimala), only restrictions should be on observance of bodily cleanliness and cleanliness of the temple environment, prohibition of non-veg. food inside and near temple compound, respect for the temples, prohibition of animal/bird 'sacrifice', etc.
