Mutual perception to solve the conflict on temple entrance: VHP

Bhubaneswar, 24/11 (VISAKEO): The controversy on Keradagada Jagannath temple entrance can be solved by mutual understanding only, opines the VHP State general secretary Sri Gouri Prasad Rath. To have darshan of God of the same religion is one's birthright. No force can prohibit him from entrance of the temple to have darshan of his God. Hinduism believes in equality in caste, creed and birth.

As Jagadguru Shankaracharya had preached the value and concept of Hinduism that everyone is equal in the eyes of Supreme soul, it adopts and follows the VHP too. So, no Hindu is down trodden and untouchable. The Hindu people should dwell in one feeling that is fraternity. Where the world famous Jagannath temple never possesses untouchability and casticism, each holy institutions and Hindu temple should follow it. Thus, no priests and temple members should protest and deprive the common people beneath the birth of having the darshan of God. Because God is universal, further he said.

In the context of Hinduism, again he exemplified on Hindu customs and rituals Manabasa Gurubar where the Laxmipuran teaches equality in the society. But today's Hinduism is the victim of the bureaucracy and vested interest of the administrators. For the satisfaction of their selfishness they are trying to create discrimination between the castes in the name of religion. There should be no politics in the pure feelings like religion and darshan of God.
