Sudhanshu, this is not about nice and bad priests. And the customs & traditions at this temple (Guruvayur) is slightly different from elsewhere. For generations my likes have prayed here, and though we agree some of the customs may be questionable, I dont think many can agree that is a case of a priest rigourously enforcing rituals. And sorry to hear abt ur own experience, but u can't generalize right? Peace.
