I can understand when tantri says he just followed the rules. But these rules or so called tantras are not there in any of these holy books like Vedas and Upanishads. So these tantras are made by our ancestors for whatever reason like keep away lower caste people from temple..Today for survival of Hinduism, these tantras or rituals need a re look. We needn't follow same old rituals without any introspection. First of all temples should allow all people irrespective of their religions and castes. Discriminating based on caste and religion in a god's place is unwarranted. Let them follow purification ceremony for other purposes as said by priests like vomiting etc.. Need of the hour is change the tantras in such a way that Hinduism will be acceptable to one and all.
