Women could safely go to the temples without any objections from anyone. Doing the pradakshanam several times was the equivalent of a daily walk. And therefore healthy. Easier to make people do it if you attach religious significance to it, is my theory. :)<BR/>The temple was also a safe meeting place for women to meet other people. Nobody would actually stop a woman who wishes to go to a temple.RAJI MUTHUKRISHNANhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09767924355822361427noreply@blogger.com
