Purification versus permission
by Krishnan Gopakumar on Jun 11, 2007 10:12 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Vaylar Ravi's son was not stopped from entering the temple. Once left the Tantri decided that the temple needs to be purified.
I can't see any discrimination at all. If some one enters a place entrusted to my care, I decide to sweep the place clean after he leaves, why am I wrong? Also, Vaylar Ravi & his family having done it before, should have used his better sense & refrained from creating unnecessary disharmony. Lastly the way the ritual of "choroonu" is done in Guruvayoor now, has lost all its sanctity because of the number of people who do it every day. Better to do it in a ration shop!

So why are you not doing it in a ration shop? Is it because ration shop will have to be purified?

That question can only be answered by Vylar Ravi. I would personally choose my home to feed my child

Vaylar Ravi's son did "susu" in the temple and that is why it had to be swept and purified. The chap should have work diapers if can't control it. Why is Ravi making such a big issue about it ?
