Mr Ravi has categorised the happenings in Guruvayur temple as 'brahminical arrogance'. However, has he ever stopped for one minute to think whether it was a show of HIS OWN ARROGANCE or not....!!! The fact of the case was as follows: 1. Mr Ravi marries a christian lady and says that she followed hindu principles at home. He does not say whether she has ever prayed in the church after the marriage. Mr Ravi makes the most of his inter caste marriage in his younger days and derrives the most political mileage of such marriage alliance and becomes a front ranking leader- fights elections and even beomes minister in the state government. His children have the best of both worlds and grow up with the patronage of the church leaders and also the indirect blessings of the hindus. Now, his daughter in law wants the' Choru oonu ' of their son to be held in Guruvayur. Why not..? says, the father in law....after all he is a big shot in his state. And he goes and conducts the ceremony inside the Temple although it is clearly stated that "only Hindus are allowed inside the temple". Mr Ravi goes inside but his entourage also go in - taking for granted that THEY ARE ALL HINDUS - WHILE THEY ARE NOT. The temple Tantri in the face of such a powerful politician DID NOT OBJECT to their entry but did the next best alternative. He purified the temple premises AFTER the minister's party have left the temple and thus preserved the sanctity of the temple. WHAT WRONG DID THE TANTRI DO.....???????? Th

Arrest the Thantri and put him in a jail cell next to the terrorists. The Thantri is in the same league as Osama Bin Laden and Adolf Hitler since his heart is filled with equal hate for others. Just like a terrorist, the Thantri has attacked India and is making India weak by practicing discrimination against Indian citizens, creating differences and intolerance in the Indian society and torturing fellow Indians. He is hell bent on making India weak and destroying our country only for his hateful, bigoted, evil and imagined racial superiority. He is showing zero empathy for the victims and feels that their lives are less valuable. Definately sounds like Bin Laden and Hitler.

The case is simple a practising christian entering the Temple of Guruvayur to delibrately create a controversey and to attract attention, and settle his political scores.
Stick Only and Only to the point. Nowhere in the article nor in my post does it say anything remotely related to what you typed.

BostonPunekar so what do you think is the reason for the Tanthri's hate and bigotry? Is it beacuse Ravi married a Christian. What's the fault of the son, daughter-in-law and grandson? Why were they insulted? How about we go back 50 years and find that the Tanthris were insulting a majority Hindus across India and making Hinduism as well as India weak. Bigotry, hatred and caste based descrimination, is a bigger threat to India than the abhramic religions and their stooges.

You go n read the Tantri's interview in Rediff Today. It is Ravi who is considered a christian and not his son or wife or potha..

I read the interview, the Tanthri sees nothing wrong in his actions! I have never met a bigot who accepts that he a bigot. The moment a person accepts that they are filled with hate, bigotry and discrimination, the healing process begins and the sick patient has some hope for a complete recovery from the disease of hate, bigotry and discrimination which by the way is destroying India or whatever is left of it.

The Tantri is no terrorist as you claim. They have the manual. Even Tirupati, one cannot enter unless you sign a document that you are Hindu. The rules have change with time. Hinduism is changing faster than any. Any act that offends others should never be allowed, their rule have to change. The administrators of the temples are not priests. They should make rules to stop such practices.

Look at what ur saying buddy!! ur intolerant to others. This is India every one has right to say waht they think. The tantri did what he had to do when a non-hindu enterd the temple. He's a religious head not nation head to look after all people (religions), If Ministers wife, a christian, enters the temple, then temple authorities will do what they have to do. and u r forgetting one point they did not stop them from entering temple that means they did not discriminate. This is hindu religion you like it u follow it or just shutup.
