Guest guest Posted August 17, 2000 Report Share Posted August 17, 2000 Dear Shree/Shreemathi Shuba Swaminathan, You have written: { >What if a non-brahmin sincerely wished to learn >more about our traditions?

What do >our Acharyas say in >this regard? Thank you for clarifying my doubt. } Before the Lord Shreeman Narayana Paramaatman, all are equal. All have the right to know the tatva-hita-purushaarthas of the Parama-vaidika-matham Visishtadvaita Shree Vaishnavam but as per the guidelines of the Saastra. All have the right to adopt Prapathi (Saranaagathi) and everyone can reach the lotus feet of Shreeman Narayanan Paramaatman. All are respected. No one is denied. The Saastra has prescribed duties, dress-code etc for all. Each individual has to follow what the Saastra has prescribed specifically. So madisaar/panchakacham alone is not stressed. One has to study the dharma-saastras, authoritative smurthies in this regard under the guidance of a Shree Vaishnava Aacharya to get to know the details clearly in this regard. Thanks & Regards M.S.HARI Ramanuja Daasan. __________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
