Dear Parthiban
I think that we need to distinguish devotion from casteism. While it may be true that there is a decline in the moral and social values in Tamilnadu, it is perhaps true for the rest of the country, and may be even the world. I believe that our resources should be directed more towards development efforts that encourage social and economic equality. As followers of Ramanuja, it is amazing that the practioners of his philosophy are advocating a practice that the great Aacharya had himself discouraged.
