Hinduism has been suffering from various forms of rituals and customs which are i most cases man made or poorly interpreted in such a way to benefit some section. This include caste system, devadasi practice and many other things including prohibiting people from other religion from enetring the temples. Due to these rituals, millions of people changed their religion to Buddism, christianity and islam. To save Hinduism and spread its great philosophy, what have to do is, drive these evil rituals from our practice. We need to keep Hinduism modern and ready to accept everyone in the universe. its a great religion and everyone irrespective of their religious or social connections should be given an opportunity to get a feel of it. Restricting people entering temples restricting them know what a great religion Hinduism is..

dear Save India, The whole purpose of publicising the incidence is to make you feel ashamed.
For me such incidence happens in every religion. The difference is that Hindus are ready for change. They change their customs but can we say the same for others.

Human,Our doctrinal faith is deeply rooted in caste system,sati,devdasi,sacrifices etc and therefore difficult to reform or change.

The whole purpose of publicising the incidence is to malign Hindus by the christian controlled media. The media is controlled by Church ( for proof try to find out the share pattern of major news papers like TOI, HT ( it is no more birla), Hindu, Manorma, NDTV, Andhra Joyati, Kairalli TV, the asian age, Star tv etc)
