Not a Brahminical Arrogance
by Ananthapadmanabhan on Jun 04, 2007 09:02 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is not a Brahminical Arrogance. The rituals is followed in this temple for hundreds of Years.

How it will become suddenly Brahminical arrogance, that when we follow the Agamas of the temple which is laid out by the ancestors.

Mr. Vayalar Ravi is degrading himself as Lower Caste, but not in the eyes of Lord Guruvayurappan.

Agamas has to followed when it is laid for the benefit of the humanity.

The Hinduism is being destroyed by imical comments by the people considering themselves as LCs, for the political gains.


Mr. Vayalar Ravi should understand that even Sonia Gandhi was not allowed twenty years back, when our ex-PM Rajiv Visted Guruvayur.

Mr. R Venkatraman, the then President of India, was not allowed in Garbagraha in Chidambaram Natarajar temple. The ritual is he has to enter the temple without coat. Mr. Vallal Peruman, who was the MLA at that time, raised queries. RV just respected the custom. He is a brahmin and he has not shown his arrogance in the temple. He respected the custom.

For political gains, don't use temples and spoil the cultures followed for long year.s

Brahmins have always been at the receiving end in Tamilnadu. Every politician gained by pelting a stone at them. Perhaps, the same trend is trickling into Kerala too. Who listens to logic? Who cares to look at truth? Public memory is too short. They will move to the next hot news tomorrow. Let Vayalar enjoy a day. We will forgive him.

200% true. However, Indian Press is full of reporters who know so little of these, thus create more confusion.

And play to the hands of missionaries and vested interest.

Mr. Surya,

Don't think Agamas as pointer towards particular person. It is a generally laid principles that we should practise in temple.

If you cannot follow that, you wil get deprived of your interest to reach God. Temples are place of sanctity where we are going for mental peace.

But this is a political gimmick made by a politician to defame brahmins and I cannot just leave like this.

Regards

Anantha
