anantha praNAmams to all bhAgavathAs.
One way to address could be, academically educated
people like us, who have keen interest in the
sampradAya could possibly train themselves in the
archaka rituals and take up this profession!! Having
spent time as a normal or sub-normal earthly being so
far, gives one a good understanding of what is to be
communicated to the bhakthas attending the temples and
how is to be communicated. We can even adopt advanced
presentation techniques that we use in our corporate
professional business for effective communivcation.
This may probably address the issue concerning the
role of priests in educating the masses.
