As I unfolded today's Deccan Chronicle, I had more than one reason to frown. One could resonate with this and agree News these days are not soothing to us any more. More things happen around the world that is changing and challenging the way we live our lives.
The first disturbing piece of information is the trending hashtag, #MalePolish, a new trend where hundreds of men around the world are donning nail polishes and nail art. Well, why is this new trend so important. While things such as these are personal choices, do we have to go all over the Internet and exhibit viral posts?
The second one is about a case in SC where there are petitions about women to be allowed entry at Sabarimala temple, very soon after a ruling about entry to Shani temple.
These have been practices for some reasons and have to be adhered to. I hope fighting for equality won't go beyond this. There's a practice at Guruvayur temple where men should wear dhoti and be bare above waist. Practice is backed up with fact, that men need to absorb the rays from sanctum which have vibrations received via the pillars connecting to the top of the structure. Women need not do this because, they carry within themselves the garbha graha, the uterus which symbolises the presence of God in women.
Such are reasons behind why certain practices are held. Pray God there's no fight for equality that pushes boundaries beyond its limit.
Where are we heading to?
Love,
