Why the law only for entry, Why not for a lower caste Priest also???
by SHAHRUKH NIZAMI on Jun 07, 2007 09:55 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

If they want to make real removal of caste system then why can't they bring a law that anyone can be a priest irrespective of any caste. Our minister should respect the laws of temple and hinduism. He shouldn't do any politics in this issue. Its a religious matter so a priest only can manage the temple, minister can't.

Its already there. Moreover, many Hindu saints were not brahmin.



Prime example is, Swami Vivekanand. He was not a Brahmin.



Krishna, Sri Rama, Vyasadev, Valmiki - none of them are Brahmin.

Very funny!!!! But you still categorise them that they were not brahmin. That means they were from lower caste. So bloody caste is still there. Why dont you say all are equal? there is no difference in hindu?

if you want equality why there is no equality between different religion why Hindu is different then Muslim or Muslim is different then any other cast? why do you afraid of social equality? first answer this then question to others for the equality.
