Temple entry
by JGN on Jun 07, 2007 04:32 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Mr. Vayalar Ravi is a shameless politician. If he and his son had an iota of self respect they would not have gone to Guruvayur temple for the feeding ceremony of the infant as the same controversy had cropped up during Ravi Krishna's marriage also. Any one who is visiting a temple is bound to follow the customs prevailing there and crying hoarse later is not a mark of civilized behaviour.

I had not gone inside Shree Padmanabha Swamy Temple at Trivandrum despite staying within walk-able distance for over a month as I did not like the custom of wearing a borrowed dhoti (since I am not a resident of Kerala I did not have a white dhoti) for going inside the temple. Our politicians and their progeny think they are born to rule and have an inalienable right to bend every rule in the book. This fellow does not know that "discretion is better part of valor"

Everyone is thinking Mr Ravi, somehow, is working for christianity cause! Raising an issue, then will try to politically grab and then will make way for the missionaries!
Is India acting secular way by any chance?
Events say she is not!The poliiticians are main ly responsible! This power showing has started from J L Nehru'' s time!
The "Hindu Marriage Act 1955" ios the example, passed by the number power against constitution!

Rightly said Mr.JGN, It has become a practice for these ruthless politician to use there power and money to poke their nose into everything contraversial and create chaos. Why is that people are so bothered about hindu temples and hindu customs that are age old. Guruvayoor is one those very few temples that still maintains that sanity and these crooked moeny eating pig aren't ready to tolerate. Infact Guruvayoor devasom must sue that useless vayalaar ravi and his stupid son for creating such chaos.
